Local disclosure of protected credentials
Published Apr 9, 2024 · Updated May 3, 2025
Information disclosure in Microsoft Azure Identity client library for .NET before 1.11.0 allows local users to read sensitive data. Microsoft has not published which credential-handling locus performs the insufficient protection or how crafted local input retrieves the data. A low-privileged local account is required, and successful exploitation exposes protected credentials without altering data or interrupting service.
