Abstract

What do you get when you mix an unpatched vulnerability with a bit of Python?
Custom payloads, creative exploits, and a bunch of surprising outcomes. This talk dives into a still-unpatched flaw in WhatsApp for Windows, exploring how Python can turn a “low-risk” issue into something much more interesting—and potentially dangerous. The talk briefly goes through mitigation strategies and preventive measures too.
