Authenticated privilege elevation via undisclosed SSRF
Published Jul 23, 2026 · Updated Jul 24, 2026
Server-side request forgery in Microsoft Azure AI Search allows remote authenticated users to elevate privileges over a network. Microsoft has not disclosed the affected endpoint or how attacker-controlled input directs the service's outbound request. Authenticated access is required, and the public record identifies privilege elevation without specifying the resulting Azure role or permissions.
