Meh. Looks like they "found" how the app stores the key to its local database and they "figured out" how the file encryption is implemented.
Surprisingly to no one: if you have fully access to the Phone (including access to the user's keystore) you can use the Signal app (and thus read messages). Thanks for making "our world a safer place".
