Microsoft’s Azure cloud platform contains a severe security flaw that could allow malware execution, according to researchers from Vectra.

Alternatively, CSV Injection could also introduce malware. The vulnerability can be executed unauthenticated, meaning attackers don’t need a cloud account. Fully patched Excel instances are reportedly immune to this issue.
