Threats Tagged 'okta'

A sophisticated adversary-in-the-middle phishing campaign targets Microsoft 365 and Okta users by exploiting single sign-on (SSO) flows. Attackers use lookalike domains and malicious JavaScript injections to steal credentials and session tokens, bypassing multi-factor authentication. Initial access is gained through phishing emails themed around compensation and benefits, sent via compromised mailboxes and Amazon SES. The phishing infrastructure is hosted on Cloudflare, enhancing resilience and evasion. This campaign specifically targets organizations relying on Okta as an identity provider for Microsoft 365, enabling session hijacking and credential theft. The threat poses a medium severity risk due to its complexity and potential impact on confidentiality and integrity. European organizations using these platforms are at risk, especially in countries with high adoption of Microsoft 365 and Okta. Mitigation requires targeted user training, domain monitoring, and enhanced detection of anomalous authentication flows. No CVSS score is available; however, the threat is assessed as high severity given the bypass of MFA and session hijacking capabilities.
