Unique 0-click deanonymization attack targeting Signal, Discord and hundreds of platform

hi, i'm daniel. i'm a 15-year-old high school junior. in my free time, i hack billion dollar companies and build cool stuff.

3 months ago, I discovered a unique 0-click deanonymization attack that allows an attacker to grab the location of any target within a 250 mile radius. With a vulnerable app installed on a target's phone (or as a background application on their laptop), an attacker can send a malicious payload and deanonymize you within seconds--and you wouldn't even know.

I'm publishing this writeup and research as a warning, especially for journalists, activists, and hackers, about this type of undetectable attack. Hundreds of applications are vulnerable, including some of the most popular apps in the world: Signal, Discord, Twitter/X, and others. Here's how it works:

tl;dr i'm stepping down as owner of discord.js!

Hello! I'm Amish (also known as hydrabolt), and I am the creator of discord.js.

I created discord.js as a hobby/learning project for myself in August 2015 while I was still a teenager in school.

More than 6 years later, discord.js has become more popular than I could ever imagine, and I cannot express how grateful I am to the other contributors and the community for this amazing experience.

A few of my favourite highlights include:

  • The countless voice rewrites (I think we're done with that now 😉)
  • The April Fools' traditions

Discord Gateway Intents Explainer

Intents Explainer

If you're wondering what Gateway Intents are, what Privileged Intents are, why your bot can't see statuses, or why your bot can't see member joins anymore, then this page should explain it to you!

if you do not know what intents are, please read this entire page

Intro

First, a short explanation of how bots work: bots can make requests over the REST (HTTP) API to retreive information and do actions, and they get real-time updates from Discord in the form of websocket gateway events. They can also fetch server members via the gateway.

Examples of gateway events you are probably familiar with are Message Create (a message was sent) and Guild Member Add (a user joined a server).
