CISA’s Emergency Directive 25-02 on August 7 requires federal agencies to fix a critical vulnerability in Microsoft Exchange hybrid setups by 9:00 AM ET on August 11.
Vulnerability scans show that the US, Germany, and Russia have the most exposed vulnerable servers. These findings come as Microsoft and CISA warn of “significant, unacceptable risk” to organizations operating Exchange hybrid configurations that have not implemented the April 2025 security guidance.
The vulnerability originated on April 18, 2025, when Microsoft announced security changes for Exchange Server Hybrid Deployments along with a non-security hotfix.
The company recommends installing the April 2025 hotfix or later and making configuration changes in Exchange Server hybrid environments.
Security researcher Dirk-Jan Mollema from Outsider Security revealed a vulnerability at Black Hat USA 2025, showing how attackers can create forged authentication tokens that are valid for 24 hours, bypassing access policies.
Microsoft has labeled the vulnerability as “Exploitation More Likely” despite no confirmed active exploitation as of the disclosure date.
CISA Acting Director Madhu Gottumukkala highlighted the urgent need to address a vulnerability that poses a serious risk to crucial federal systems.
Organizations should apply the April 2025 Exchange Server hotfix updates, set up dedicated Exchange hybrid applications, and remove old service principal credentials.
