Telegram Under Fire: $4M Bounty for Zero-Day Exploits!
🚨 Cyber Alert | March 2025
A Russian zero-day broker, Operation Zero, is offering up to $4 million for Telegram exploits — and it's serious business.
Here’s the breakdown:
$500K for one-click RCE (Remote Code Execution)
$1.5M for zero-click RCE
$4M for a full exploit chain (think full device takeover!)
Why Telegram?
It’s hugely popular in Russia & Ukraine, and clearly a target of interest.
These aren’t your average bug bounties — these are military-grade vulnerabilities, sold exclusively to the Russian government & local firms.
What it means:
The stakes are rising in the world of cyber warfare — and your favorite apps may be at the center of it.
Stay updated. Stay secure.
