VoidProxy Phishing Platform Emerges as Threat Capable of Bypassing MFA

Researchers in the field of cybersecurity are warning that a sophisticated phishing-as-a-service (PhaaS) platform known as VoidProxy is being used by criminal groups for the purpose of evading widespread security controls and is demonstrating just how far this technology has advanced in criminal groups’ ability to circumvent widely deployed security controls. 

In the form of a specialised tool developed by cybercriminals to target high-value accounts neutralising the defences of multi-factor authentication (MFA), VoidProxy is specifically designed and marketed for cybercriminals. There is no question that VoidProxy, developed by researchers at Okta, the identity and access management company, is different from any other phishing kit out there. 

Rather than relying on advanced infrastructures and evasion techniques, it combines these attributes with commoditised accessibility to make it both effective and dangerous even for relatively low-skilled attackers. In particular, VoidProxy makes a great deal of sense because it relies heavily on adversary-in-the-middle (AiTM) phishing, a method of intercepting authentication flows in real time, which makes it particularly alarming. 

Using this method, cybercriminals are not only able to capture credentials, but they can also take possession of multi-factor authentication codes and session tokens generated durin
