About this tag
Cross-tenant impersonation refers to a security vulnerability in Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory) that could allow an attacker to impersonate any user, including Global Administrators, across different tenants. This issue was addressed in a patch for CVE-2025-55241, which involved abuse of undocumented Actor tokens and a tenant-validation gap in the legacy Azure AD Graph API. The related nOAuth vulnerability also highlights risks in Entra-integrated applications, emphasizing the need for robust identity security measures. Discussions on WindowsForum cover the technical details, risks, and remedies for these cross-tenant impersonation threats, focusing on enterprise IT and cloud security.
