Microsoft resolved security lapse exposing company files, TechCrunch says

Microsoft found and resolved a security lapse that exposed internal company files and passwords, Zack Wittaker and Carly Page of TechCrunch reports. Security researchers Can Yoleri, Murat Ozfidan and Egemen Kochisarl with SOCRadar found an open and public storage server hosted on Microsoft’s Azure cloud service that was storing internal information related to Bing’s search engine, housing code, scripts, passwords, and credentials. Yoleri told TechCrunch the exposed data could potentially help malicious actors identity or access locations where Microsoft stores its internal files, which, if identified, would lead to “more significant data leaks.”
