unicode spoofing

Unicode spoofing is a deceptive technique where attackers use invisible or visually similar Unicode characters to make malicious applications appear legitimate. On WindowsForum.com, discussions highlight how this method has been used in OAuth consent phishing attacks against Microsoft Azure customers. Attackers register malicious Azure applications with names that look identical to trusted services like Azure Portal or Microsoft Teams by embedding hidden Unicode characters. These apps then present convincing consent pages to harvest OAuth tokens and gain tenant access. The tag covers real-world examples of such attacks, focusing on the exploitation of visual trust in cloud environments and the security implications for Microsoft cloud users.
