Remote, unauthenticated, low-complexity open redirect requiring a victim click (UI:R); it crosses trust boundaries (S:C) enabling token/privilege theft (C:H/I:H) with no availability impact.

Url redirection to untrusted site ('open redirect') in M365 Copilot allows an unauthorized attacker to elevate privileges over a network.
AnalysisAI
Privilege elevation in Microsoft 365 Copilot via an open redirect (CWE-601) lets an unauthenticated remote attacker abuse the AI assistant's URL-handling to bounce a victim to an attacker-controlled site and elevate privileges over the network. Rated CVSS 9.3 with a scope-changed vector because the redirect crosses a trust boundary, though exploitation requires the victim to interact (click) with the crafted link. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is very low (0.04%), indicating no observed real-world exploitation despite the high severity score.
Technical ContextAI
The affected component is Microsoft 365 Copilot (cpe:2.3:a:microsoft:microsoft_365_copilot), the LLM-based productivity assistant embedded across the Microsoft 365 suite. The root cause is CWE-601 (URL Redirection to Untrusted Site / 'open redirect'): Copilot accepts or generates a redirect target without properly validating that the destination belongs to a trusted domain, allowing an attacker to craft a link that appears to originate from a legitimate Microsoft/Copilot context but forwards the user elsewhere. In an AI-assistant context this is more dangerous than a classic open redirect because the redirect can be leveraged to steal session tokens or OAuth/consent grants, producing the privilege-elevation impact reflected by the scope-changed CVSS vector (S:C).
RemediationAI
Patch available per vendor advisory - Microsoft has released a fix, and because Microsoft 365 Copilot is a cloud-hosted service the correction is applied server-side by Microsoft, so no exact customer-installable version number is published; confirm mitigation status via the MSRC update guide at https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2026-33102. As compensating controls while validating remediation, train users not to click unexpected Copilot-generated or Copilot-delivered links and to verify final destination domains, enforce phishing-resistant MFA and conditional-access policies to blunt any token/consent theft that a redirect enables, and consider tightening OAuth app-consent policies so a redirected user cannot silently grant elevated permissions (trade-off: stricter consent settings may block legitimate add-in workflows and increase admin approval overhead). Corroborating advisory: https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-33102.
