Push Security disclosed ConsentFix v3, a new attack that lets criminals take over Microsoft 365 accounts even if the victim has MFA and phishing-resistant passkeys turned on. The trick: instead of stealing a password, the attacker tricks the user into pasting a Microsoft authorization URL into a phishing page during what looks like a routine login. That URL contains a one-time code that the attacker exchanges for permanent access tokens. v3 automates the whole attack with Cloudflare Pages phishing sites, Pipedream webhook automation, and tenant fingerprinting that customizes the lure to each target organization's branding.
Microsoft quietly patched a privilege escalation flaw in Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) that let an attacker with a low-privileged service account take over any service principal in the same tenant - including high-value ones with admin consent grants. The bug was in how Entra ID validated role assignments during certain API calls: the validator checked whether the caller had any role on a service principal but didn't check whether that role authorized the specific action. Microsoft fixed the flaw on the back end, so customers don't need a patch - but the takeover scenario means anyone who exploited it before the fix could have created persistent backdoors via OAuth grants.
Vercel updated its security bulletin on April 23 to disclose that ongoing forensics has uncovered additional customer accounts compromised in the Context.ai-linked breach that went public on April 19, and - more worryingly - a separate cluster of customer accounts with evidence of compromise that predates and appears unconnected to the Context.ai incident. CEO Guillermo Rauch confirmed on X that the threat actor has been active beyond Context.ai's compromise. Hudson Rock's forensic report traced patient-zero to a Context.ai employee whose laptop was infected by Lumma Stealer in February 2026 after downloading Roblox auto-farm scripts - a roughly four-week dwell time before the operator pivoted into Context.ai's AWS environment and then through OAuth tokens into Vercel's Google Workspace. The stolen credential set from that single laptop included Google Workspace logins, Supabase keys, Datadog tokens, Authkit credentials, and the support@context.ai account. Vercel has now confirmed non-sensitive environment variables in affected team scopes were readable to the attacker, and says customer notifications are going out individually rather than via a public list.
Cloud development platform Vercel disclosed a security incident on April 19 after a threat actor claiming to be ShinyHunters posted stolen data for sale on a hacking forum. Vercel CEO Guillermo Rauch confirmed the initial access came through a breach at Context.ai, an enterprise AI platform one Vercel employee had signed up for using their Vercel enterprise account with 'Allow All' OAuth permissions. Attackers compromised Context.ai, stole the OAuth token, took over the employee's Google Workspace account, and pivoted into Vercel environments. Once inside, they accessed environment variables not marked as 'sensitive' - these are stored unencrypted at rest, unlike sensitive env vars which Vercel encrypts. The attacker posted 580 employee records (names, emails, account status, activity timestamps) as a teaser, plus screenshots of an internal Vercel Enterprise dashboard. They claim to also have access keys, source code, database data, and API keys, though Vercel characterizes impact as a 'limited subset' of customers. Mandiant is engaged. This is the cleanest real-world example to date of the AI supply chain risk pattern everyone has been warning about: a third-party AI tool with broad OAuth scopes becomes the initial access vector into your primary infrastructure.
A new phishing-as-a-service kit called EvilTokens is being sold on Telegram, turning OAuth device code phishing against Microsoft accounts into a turnkey attack. Victims receive emails with PDFs or HTML files containing QR codes or links to pages impersonating Adobe, DocuSign, or SharePoint. The kit captures Microsoft authentication tokens in real time - bypassing MFA - and gives attackers persistent access for business email compromise. The developer says Gmail and Okta support is coming next.
