DescriptionCVE.org

Insufficient verification of data authenticity in Azure Entra ID allows an authorized attacker to perform spoofing over a network.

AnalysisAI

Spoofing vulnerability in Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory) enables an authenticated low-privilege network attacker to forge or manipulate identity data due to insufficient verification of data authenticity (CWE-345), yielding high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. The CVSS 8.8 score with PR:L confirms a valid tenant account is required but no elevated privileges are needed, meaning any compromised or legitimately provisioned low-privilege account could serve as a launchpad. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Obtain low-privilege tenant account
Delivery
Send crafted authentication or token request
Exploit
Bypass data authenticity verification check
Execution
Forge identity claims or impersonate target principal
Persist
Receive access tokens for impersonated account
Impact
Access tenant resources as impersonated user

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires the attacker to hold a valid, low-privilege account within the target Microsoft Entra ID tenant - described as an 'authorized attacker' in the CVE description and reflected by PR:L in the CVSS vector. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 8.8 High score is supported by a vector of AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, indicating network-exploitable, low-complexity conditions requiring only a low-privilege account and no user interaction. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker with a valid low-privilege account in the target Entra ID tenant - obtained through phishing, credential stuffing, or a compromised service account - sends a crafted authentication request that exploits the insufficient data authenticity verification to assert a higher-privileged or different identity. The forged identity claim is accepted by Entra ID, allowing the attacker to obtain tokens or access rights belonging to another user or service principal, potentially accessing Microsoft 365 data, Azure resources, or federated SaaS applications as the impersonated account. …
Remediation Because Microsoft Entra ID is a cloud-hosted service, the primary fix is applied server-side by Microsoft and typically requires no customer-initiated patching of an on-premises component. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, audit Entra ID logs for anomalous identity operations and review token generation events for suspicious activity patterns. …
