微軟揭露「ASCII 走私」技術遭轉用於百萬級釣魚攻擊

OAuth is an authorization standard widely used by websites and cloud services. After users sign in, they are redirected to a preset URL, allowing third-party applications to obtain limited access. Microsoft’s security team said attackers are exploiting gaps in the process’s validation controls to lure victims to spoofed pages, posing a particular concern for governments and public-sector organizations that rely on centralized identity authentication.

The latest technique deliberately inserts invalid parameters into OAuth requests and exploits redirect logic to send users to malicious websites. Attackers then use the EvilProxy man-in-the-middle framework to intercept login credentials and session cookies, and may even distribute malware. Microsoft has not disclosed the number of affected organizations, the financial losses or the exact discovery date, but has warned relevant organizations to strengthen redirect URL validation and session protections.
