A sophisticated adversary-in-the-middle phishing campaign is targeting universities, enterprises, and multinational institutions including EU and UN agencies. Active since May 2026, the operation leverages compromised organizational email accounts to distribute procurement-themed lures that mimic requests for information, bid invitations, and project documentation. Victims are redirected through fake document portals, CAPTCHA verification stages, and cloned authentication pages impersonating Microsoft, OpenGov, and financial institutions. The attacker rotates between multiple AiTM phishing kits including EvilProxy, FlowerStorm, and Kali365 to intercept MFA-protected sessions in real time, capturing session tokens and cookies to establish authenticated access. Rather than using newly registered domains, the actor compromises aged domains that have been dormant for years, injecting PHP files to host phishing infrastructure and evade detection through domain reputation systems.

Phishing attacks have surged in 2026 as AI-powered phishing-as-a-service kits enable threat actors to bypass multi-factor authentication and harvest OAuth tokens at scale. Two phishing tools were identified in active campaigns: Jalisco, a device code phishing toolkit that provisions fresh OAuth codes in real time to defeat time-based security controls, and OmegaLord, a credential harvester that captures phone numbers alongside passwords to intercept MFA. Both tools demonstrate that attackers are engineering sophisticated methods to defeat authentication controls. These toolkits are part of a broader ecosystem that includes AI-powered PhaaS kits like EvilTokens and Kali365, which leverage legitimate cloud platforms to evade detection. Following compromise, attackers establish persistence by enrolling multiple devices to victim Entra ID tenants, enabling access that survives password resets and extends the window for data exfiltration and extortion.
