Microsoft Azure Data Factory

CVE-2026-62834

Improper verification of cryptographic signature in Azure Data Factory allows an unauthorized attacker to elevate privileges over a network.

What this means for your business

  • It affects Microsoft Azure Data Factory. It matters if your company, or a supplier that handles your data, runs it.
  • An attacker can use it remotely, over a network, without a login, but only after tricking someone into an action such as opening a file or a link.
  • FIRST's prediction model gives it a 0.3% chance of attack attempts being seen in the next 30 days, ranking above 22% of all known flaws.

What to do

  1. 1Check whether your company or your suppliers run Microsoft Azure Data Factory, and which version. The affected versions are listed further down this page.
  2. 2If you do, apply the vendor's fix. A patch or vendor advisory has been published.
