Telegram disables HTML widgets

Telegram has disabled HTML widgets due to vulnerabilities

Telegram has temporarily disabled the use of HTML widgets in its platform. This decision was made by developers after discovering serious security flaws in the new feature.

The company's official blog published a post explaining the reasons for disabling the widget, noting that this measure is temporary and will be lifted once all issues are fixed.

In addition to technical problems, there were reports of abuse of the widget functionality by malicious actors who used it to spread spam and phishing links.

Telegram users should not worry about their data as no information leakage occurred during the period when the widget was available.
