CQURE Hacks #79: Azure Storage Misconfiguration in Practice From Public Blob to Key Vault Access

In this episode of CQURE Hacks, we walk through a real-world Azure misconfiguration that leads from seemingly harmless public access to full cloud compromise.

Starting with a simple inspection of a web application, we uncover an exposed Azure Blob Storage container with anonymous listing enabled. From there, we demonstrate how attackers can enumerate additional containers, discover sensitive internal information, and take advantage of blob versioning to recover deleted credential files.

The attack escalates quickly – by retrieving an old version of a Service Principal credential file, we gain authenticated access to Azure resources and ultimately extract secrets from a Key Vault, including administrative and database credentials. This video highlights how small oversights, like public container access combined with versioning, can create serious security risks in cloud environments.

If you want to learn how to identify, exploit, and most importantly secure these kinds of cloud misconfigurations, check out the Live Virtual Cybersecurity Training: Entra ID (Azure AD) from CQURE Academy 👉 https://cqureacademy.com/cyber-security-training/lvc-entra-id/

This hands-on course dives deep into real attack paths, identity security, and defensive techniques used by professionals, giving you practical skills you can apply immediately in your own environment.
