Microsoft AI researchers accidentally exposed terabytes of internal sensitive data

Microsoft AI researchers accidentally exposed terabytes of internal sensitive data

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Microsoft AI researchers accidentally exposed tens of terabytes of sensitive data, including private keys and passwords, while publishing a storage bucket of open source training data on GitHub.

Readers of the GitHub repository, which provided open source code and AI models for image recognition, were instructed to download the models from an Azure Storage URL. However, Wiz found that this URL was configured to grant permissions on the entire storage account, exposing additional private data by mistake.

This data included 38 terabytes of sensitive information, including the personal backups of two Microsoft employees’ personal computers. The data also contained other sensitive personal data, including passwords to Microsoft services, secret keys and more than 30,000 internal Microsoft Teams messages from hundreds of Microsoft employees.

The URL, which had exposed this data since 2020, was also misconfigured to allow ‘full control’ rather than ‘read-only’ permissions, according to Wiz, which meant anyone who knew where to look could potentially delete, replace and inject malicious content into them.

Wiz notes that the storage account wasn’t directly exposed. Rather, the Microsoft AI developers included an overly permissive shared access signature (SAS) token in the URL. SAS tokens are a mechanism used by Azure that allows users to create shareable links granting access to an Azure Storage account’s data.

Wiz said it shared its findings with Microsoft on June 22, and Microsoft revoked the SAS token two days later on June 24. Microsoft said it completed its investigation on potential organizational impact on August 16.

Microsoft said that as a result of Wiz’s research, it has expanded GitHub’s secret spanning service, which monitors all public open source code changes for plaintext exposure of credentials and other secrets to include any SAS token that may have overly permissive expirations or privileges.
