The bug went viral after Facebook user Joshua Maddox reportedthe issue, complete with video proof, on Twitter early Sunday morning. However, an earlier report of the bug goes back even further with a Nov. 2 tweet from Twitter user @neo_qa.

The bug appears to activate the camera after a user opens a photo or video in fullscreen within the Facebook app. Upon closing the media or swiping it offscreen, the Facebook app interface noticeably shifts to the right of the screen. Clearly open behind the app is the backfacing iPhone camera.

Mashable was able to replicate the bug with the latest Facebook app, version 246, installed on the latest version of iOS (13.2.2) on an iPhone 6S.
My first attempt at trying to recreate the bug failed as I had not previously given the Facebook app permission to use my camera, so revoking those permissions appear to be a temporary privacy fix. The app did, however, still attempt to open the camera.
In a later tweet, Maddox confirmedhe tested the camera issue on multiple iPhones. It appears that the Facebook bug does not affect iPhone users with iOS 12. TheNextWebsaid that it could not be replicated on a device using iOS 13.1.
Other users have postedrecordings of their experiences with the Facebook camera bug.
The big question on social media: Is the bug that the camera is opening in the first place? Or is it that the screen is shifting, meaning the Facebook app normally has the camera open in the background?
Mashable reached out to Facebook for comment and to confirm this is indeed a bug (which appears to be the case, but honestly who knows anymore?). We will update this post when we hear back.
Whether it's the Cambridge Analyticascandal that rocked Facebook last year or the breach just last weekwhere as many as 100 third-party developers were able to improperly access user data, the social media company doesn't have the greatest track record when it comes to user privacy. Here’s hoping Facebook at least fixes the bug soon.
UPDATE: Nov. 12, 2019, 2:31 p.m. ET Facebook VP of Integrity Guy Rosen provided an update on the issue on Twitter. He notes that it is a bug and a fix will be pushed out to the App Store today.
UPDATE: Nov. 14, 2019, 10:09 p.m. ETA new update of the Facebook app with a fix for this bug is now available on the App Store.

Facebook also provided Mashable with the following statement:
"We recently discovered that version 244 of the Facebook iOS app would incorrectly launch in landscape mode. In fixing that issue last week in v246 (launched on November 8th) we inadvertently introduced a bug that caused the app to partially navigate to the camera screen adjacent to News Feed when users tapped on photos. We have seen no evidence of photos or videos being uploaded due to this bug. We’re submitting the fix for this to Apple today."
