DescriptionNVD

Improper authorization in Azure Portal allows an unauthorized attacker to disclose information over a network.

AnalysisAI

Information disclosure in Microsoft Azure Portal allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to access sensitive data they are not authorized to view by exploiting an improper authorization check (CWE-285) reachable over the network. The flaw affects the cloud-hosted Azure management console and, per its CVSS vector, requires no privileges or user interaction while yielding high confidentiality impact with no integrity or availability effect. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and CISA SSVC records exploitation status as none, though the issue is assessed as automatable; the EPSS probability is modest at 1.03%.

Technical ContextAI

Azure Portal is Microsoft's web-based, multi-tenant management console (cpe:2.3:a:microsoft:azure_portal) used to provision and administer Azure cloud resources. The root cause is CWE-285 Improper Authorization: an access-control decision fails to correctly verify that the requesting principal is entitled to the returned data, so authorization is enforced inconsistently or omitted on a network-reachable code path. Because the Portal is a shared cloud service backed by REST/ARM APIs, a missing or flawed authorization check can expose one tenant's or user's metadata or resource information to another party without any credential escalation. This is a service-side (vendor-hosted) defect rather than a bug in installed software, so remediation is delivered by Microsoft rather than by customer patching.

RemediationAI

Because Azure Portal is a Microsoft-operated cloud service, the fix is a server-side change deployed by the vendor rather than a customer-applied update: Patch available per vendor advisory (MSRC, https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2026-62835) - no discrete customer patch version is published, and no customer action is strictly required once Microsoft has deployed the remediation. Verify remediation status via the MSRC update guide entry for CVE-2026-62835. As defense-in-depth for the confidentiality exposure, review Azure activity and sign-in logs and Portal access records for the pre-fix window for any anomalous data-access patterns, enforce least-privilege RBAC and Conditional Access so that even successful unauthorized reads are minimized, and, where feasible, restrict Portal access to trusted networks/managed devices via Conditional Access to shrink the attacker population. These controls have the trade-off of added administrative overhead and potential friction for legitimate remote administrators but do not degrade Portal functionality.
