FBI warns of Kali365 phishing-as-a-service: OAuth device-code consent abuse against Microsoft 365 since April, $250-$2,000/year

The FBI has issued a warning about Kali365, a phishing-as-a-service platform that fueled large Microsoft 365 attacks in April. Instead of stealing passwords, Kali365 customers trigger Microsoft device-login requests and trick victims into completing the authorization, capturing OAuth access and refresh tokens that grant immediate mailbox access. Arctic Wolf, which infiltrated the system, says Kali365 sells in three tiers from $250 for 30 days to $2,000 for the year and generates branded phishing lures impersonating Adobe, DocuSign, and SharePoint in dozens of languages. Threat actors set malicious inbox rules to suppress security notifications and extend dwell time.

Check
Search Microsoft 365 audit logs for unfamiliar device-login completions and OAuth consent grants since April 1. Hunt for inbox rules that auto-delete or hide security-team email addresses.
Affected
Any Microsoft 365 tenant where users can complete device-login flows initiated by an attacker. Adobe, DocuSign, and SharePoint-themed lures are the primary social engineering vector.
Fix
Block device-code flow in Conditional Access for non-mobile platforms. Enforce phishing-resistant FIDO2 MFA. Train users to verify the device-login codes they approve. Audit OAuth-granted apps quarterly.
