I have not followed the links yet, but by the sound of it, it would be an issue
with the underlying
operating system Whatsapp would be running on too. IN theory a compromised apppl

resources the operating system is willing to conceede to it. That is why you are
supposed to give
permissions to applications to access this or that feature of the phone.
