Stack Diary mentioned that Electron-based apps like encrypted-messaging app Signal and Bandisoft’s Honeyview have also released patches for the issue. Other apps, like Affinity, Gimp, LibreOffice, Telegram, many Android applications, and “cross-platform apps built with Flutter” are likewise affected, according to the site.
Apple also released a security patch this week for what appears to be the same issue
