I've been researching the Microsoft cloud for almost 7 years now. A few months ago that research resulted in the most impactful vulnerability I will probably ever find: a token validation flaw allowing me to get Global Admin in any Entra ID tenant. Blog: dirkjanm.io/obtaining-global…

Releasing Tunnel Vision Toolkit, part of my @x33fcon talk on Microsoft Global Secure Access. Includes BOFs to assist in engagements where you face GSA, plus a rogue client that lets you connect to internal resources from unmanaged devices. github.com/ar0x4/tunnel-visi…

just wrapped up @OutsiderSec’s Offensive Entra ID training with @_dirkjan. He is in fact #thegoat 🐐 it was literally the best Entra ID training going into the nitty gritty details including agent identity blueprints 🔥

Implementing a 22-step WebAuthn validation flow is hard — even for co-authors of the spec. At #BHUSA, I'll be presenting "Pass-the-Passkey": a new family of attacks bypassing phishing-resistant MFA. Replay. Relay. Tamper. Spoof. 3 new vulns. 20 attacks. 5 OSS tools.
#BHUSA will be here before we know it. This year our team will share the tradecraft, research, & attack path insights shaping modern offensive & defensive security. 🎓 5 hands-on trainings 🎤 3 technical briefings 🛠️ 5 Arsenal sessions Learn more: specterops.io/black-hat/

If you came to SOCON, you may have seen the fireside chat on Ouroboros (if you weren't too busy counting my "urm"s 😝). The blog post is now live, detailing how we can use Dev-Tunnels for lateral movement, and allow pivoting from GitHub/Entra ID access. specterops.io/blog/2026/05/0…

I published a new "security research" post, and for once, it’s not about Windows 😅 This time I took a look at the myAudi connected vehicle platform and its APIs..🤓 Curiosity drives security research, no matter the target Read it here 👇 decoder.cloud/2026/05/08/oh-…

Me trying to figure out Agent Identities in Entra ID. I really wonder who decided apps and service principals weren't already difficult enough to understand and went with a design that is even wayyy more complicated 😅.

Looks like the conference agenda for the next few months is filled in! First up will be @NorthSec_io in Montreal, where I'll talk with @sannemaasakkers about cloud research versus real-world attacks.

Last but not least I'll also be back at @WEareTROOPERS at the end of June. Especially excited for that one as it's kind of full circle from my first real conference talk ever in 2019 to this one in 2026. Looking forward to seeing everyone at one of these conferences 😀.

📢 You already know FOCI, BroCI, and all the OAuth2.0 flows? But do you already know the secret token providers of Entra ID? In my latest research post I explore how you can, hidden from the Defenders, request new access token. cloudbrothers.info/en/avoid-… #EntraID #DefenderXDR
