Technical details
An authentication bypass exists in Fleet's Windows MDM enrollment flow prior to version 4.82.0. While Fleet validates JSON Web Token (JWT) signatures using Microsoft's multi-tenant JWKS endpoint, it fails to enforce the 'aud' (audience) or 'iss' (issuer) claims. Consequently, any valid Microsoft-signed Azure AD access token with the required scopes can be used to authenticate to Fleet's MDM endpoints. An attacker can exploit this to enroll rogue devices or interact with MDM management APIs, potentially exposing sensitive enrollment secrets within MDM command payloads. The issue is resolved in version 4.82.0 by allowing administrators to specify allowed Entra (Azure AD) tenant IDs.
