Microsoft fixes critical flaws in Azure, Entra, SharePoint, Teams, and Active Directory

Microsoft released August 6 security fixes for more than a dozen vulnerabilities across cloud and enterprise products, including several critical bugs that could let attackers gain elevated access or run code remotely. The most severe issues include CVE-2026-63508 in Planetary Computer Pro, CVE-2026-56162 in Azure SQL Database, and CVE-2026-65667 in Teams, all rated 10.0, plus CVE-2026-50515 in Azure Service Bus, CVE-2026-62830 in Azure SRE Agent, CVE-2026-59115 in Entra Provisioning Service, and CVE-2026-50481 in Active Directory, each remotely exploitable.
Why it matters: Organizations using Microsoft cloud and identity services should treat these as urgent patch-and-review issues because several flaws are remotely exploitable and affect core business platforms. Update affected services and review exposed identity, SharePoint, Teams, and Azure deployments for signs of misuse.
