Technical details

An authorization bypass vulnerability in Entra Device Registration stems from insufficient validation of a user-controlled cryptographic key used in the registration or authentication process. The flaw allows unauthenticated or low-privileged attackers to supply a crafted key value that bypasses authorization checks, leading to privilege escalation over the network without requiring valid credentials or user interaction.
