About this tag
OAuth phishing is a growing threat that targets Microsoft 365, Azure, and Entra ID accounts by abusing legitimate OAuth authentication flows to steal access tokens, bypass passwords, and evade multifactor authentication. Recent attacks such as Kali365 use device-code authentication to capture tokens without requiring stolen credentials or fake login pages, while ConsentFix v3 automates OAuth authorization-code theft via Cloudflare Pages and Pipedream. CoPhish exploits Microsoft Copilot Studio to deliver consent prompts that exfiltrate tokens. These attacks shift the phishing battlefield from passwords to tokens, making traditional anti-phishing advice insufficient. Windows shops must adopt token security measures to defend against OAuth abuse.
