Major security flaws found in Microsoft Azure: Report

Researchers at security firm Check Point claims that they had identified two major security flaws in Microsoft Azure. Check Point researchers discovered that a user on the Azure network could have potentially taken control over the entire server, opening a path to business code theft and manipulation. The security issues have been solved.
The first security flaw was found in Azure Stack. The second security flaw was found in Azure App Service. The Azure Stack Flaw would have enabled a hacker to gain screenshots and sensitive information of machines running on Azure. The Azure App Flaw would have enabled a hacker to take control over the entire Azure server, and consequently take control over an enterprises’ business code.
Check Point researchers were able to take screenshots and lift sensitive information of Azure tenants and infrastructure machines. This security flaw would enable a hacker to get sensitive information of any business that has its machine running on Azure.
