What Hacker News says?

  1. I feel like I remember a similar attack related to Entra ID from a while ago, although I can't remember exactly what it was (maybe [0] or [1]?).. I understand that this is a complex system, but I would be concerned with the number of relatively high severity vulnerabilities being found in it.
