Durov denies account hacks, widgets disabled in Telegram

Durov denied the possibility of account hacking in Telegram via regular messages. The messenger's founder stated that attackers cannot access other people's data without the user's participation.

To compromise an account, you need to open a third-party service yourself. The discovered vulnerability has already been fixed on the server side, eliminating further risks of this kind.

At the same time, media reported security issues related to the platform's HTML widgets.

According to TG Info, widget functionality is completely disabled for all users. This decision aims to prevent potential attacks and ensure client data protection.
