Microsoft security researchers recently identified an attack where attackers attempted to move laterally to a cloud environment through a SQL Server instance. The attackers initially exploited a SQL injection vulnerability in an application within the target’s environment to gain access and elevated permissions to a Microsoft SQL Server instance deployed in an Azure Virtual Machine (VM). The attackers then used the acquired elevated permission to attempt to move laterally to additional cloud resources by abusing the server’s cloud identity.
