Running PowerShell on Azure VMs at Scale

Karl Fosaaen shows how Contributor access to Azure Automation Accounts can be abused by modifying runbooks to dump secrets from Key Vaults, enabling attackers to read vault data without Owner rights.

Karl Fosaaen starts an Azure Automation series, showing how runbook permissions allow attackers to export RunAs certificates and credentials for maintaining privileged access to Azure subscriptions.

Karl Fosaaen releases a script for anonymous Azure service enumeration, brute forcing DNS across azurewebsites.net, cloudapp.net, and blob.core.windows.net to map a target's public Azure footprint.

Karl Fosaaen introduces Get-AzurePasswords, a MicroBurst script that automates credential dumping from Azure Key Vaults, App Services configurations, and Automation Accounts via Azure PowerShell.

Karl Fosaaen explores anonymous enumeration of Azure blob storage, explaining container access policies and releasing tooling to find publicly exposed blobs holding configs, backups, and credentials.

Azure pentesting technique: abuse the Desired State Configuration (DSC) VM extension to run arbitrary commands with built-in recurrence, giving Contributor-role attackers stealthy persistence.
