A vulnerability in Microsoft 365 Copilot Enterprise Search has been discovered, allowing potential attackers to access sensitive information. Researchers at Varonis Threat Labs identified a chain of three bugs that could be exploited to exfiltrate emails, calendar details, and indexed files from the search function. The vulnerability was triggered by a single click on a trusted Microsoft link, which pointed to a legitimate microsoft.com domain. The issue highlights the potential risks associated with trusted links, even when they appear to be legitimate. Traditional anti-phishing and URL filtering tools were ineffective in detecting the vulnerability, underscoring the need for continued vigilance in cybersecurity measures.
