The French government has just launched its own messaging application called Tchap to protect conversations from hackers, private companies and foreign entities.
But Elliot Aldson, also known as Robert Baptiste, found a security flaw immediately, as he was able to create an account even though the service was supposed to be limited to government officials, which is based on an open-source protocol called Matrix.
In a few words, Matrix is a messaging protocol characterized by end-to-end encryption. They compete with other protocols, such as Signal protocol, which is widely used by consumer applications, such as WHATSAPP, Signal, Secret Messenger conversations, and Google's incognito hide-messenger conversations and Allo are not encrypted from party to party By default, Riot is a Matrix client running on the desktop and mobile, you can join rooms, start private conversations, share photos, and do whatever you expect from a modern messaging app.
Tchap development became necessary as the Emmanuel Makin campaign team relied heavily on Telegram-the French government continues to use Telegram and WhatsApp in many sensitive conversations, and by default, it does not use Telegram-to-party encryption. In other words, Telegram employees can easily read Macron conversations, as they are a serious security weakness, similarly, and also do not want the MoD to use Slack application to talk about sensitive processes, where the U.S. government can issue access to those conversations on SlaCk servers.
The Tchap application features a tip-to-pin end-to-end encryption, encrypted messages are stored only on French servers, and access is limited to government officials, where you must have an active email address ending with @something.gouv.fr or @ elysee.fr, but yesterday it was discovered Dunderson that you can create an account and access the public channels even if you do not have an official address, and you add @ elysee.fr at the end of his email address is sufficient to receive the confirmation email on his real email address.
The good news is that the TCHAP application was officially launched today, and Dinsic was able to fix this security flaw in time before the official launch and anyone can benefit from it, and in its press statement, the government says that Dinsic will launch the error rewards program to identify other vulnerabilities in the application, and can be followed T on my Facebook profile in Technical Geeks, and to meet in other useful posts.
