Azure penetration testing
Entra ID actor tokens, PRT replay, managed-identity over-privilege.
Entra ID actor-token impersonation (CVE-2025-55241), Primary Refresh Token replay via roadtx, device-code phishing through phantom device registration, managed-identity over-scope chained from IMDS SSRF, workload-identity federation issuer tampering, and Azure Monitor SSRF to token theft (CVE-2025-62207), tested by hand. Every finding ships with a working proof-of-exploit, code-level fix guidance, and a re-test.
Entra-first
Actor tokens, PRT replay, device-code phishing, tested against your tenant by hand.
Identity to Owner
Managed-identity over-scope and federation tampering chained to subscription Owner.
Re-test included
We verify your fixes at no extra cost. One engagement, closed loop.
Entra ID actor tokens cross tenants, your blast radius isn't your subscription.

What we test
Six surfaces. Six named bug classes.
These are not generic categories, they are the primitives our Azure pentesters chain into engagement findings.
- Entra ID actor tokens
- Undocumented service-to-service actor tokens accepted by legacy AAD Graph without source-tenant validation, cross-tenant Global Admin (CVE-2025-55241).
- Primary Refresh Token replay
- Extract CloudAP-protected PRTs from a joined host, replay via roadtx to mint MSGraph tokens that satisfy MFA and conditional access.
- Device-code & CA bypass
- Device-code phishing chained with phantom-device DRS registration marks the attacker workstation compliant, conditional-access policy waved through.
- Managed identity over-privilege
- Workload SSRF reaches IMDS, lifts a system-assigned identity with Contributor at subscription scope, then pivots tenant-wide (CVE-2025-62207).
- Workload identity federation
- Swap the federated-credential issuer URL on an Entra app, persistent service-principal access without a stored secret, no rotation signal.
- Subscription & KeyVault RBAC
- Owner or User Access Administrator at subscription scope plus permissive KeyVault access policies, reveals secrets, cert private keys, AKV-stored SAS tokens.
Beyond config
One phish becomes tenant Owner.
Most Azure security tooling stops at the config-audit layer, checks IAM bindings, surfaces misconfigurations, emits a CSV. That's where a real pentest begins. A phished employee gives up a Primary Refresh Token; using roadtx and CloudAP, the pentester mints a fresh access token that satisfies MFA and conditional access because a phantom DRS registration makes the device look compliant. From an internal workload SSRF (the same primitive that produced CVE-2025-62207 in Azure Monitor), the team reaches IMDS and lifts a system-assigned Managed Identity scoped Contributor at the subscription. That identity rotates a KeyVault access policy, swaps the issuer on a privileged Entra app's Workload Identity Federation credential, and the chain closes at subscription Owner, the same class of trust abuse behind CVE-2025-55241. One starting credential, four primitives, tenant-wide compromise. Config audits don't catch chains; pentests do.
