BigBear 2.0 phishing campaign hijacks Microsoft 365 sessions after MFA

CloudSEK uncovered BigBear 2.0, a PhaaS operation that captured 4,148 Microsoft 365 session cookies, hijacking authenticated sessions after MFA via AiTM proxy.

CloudSEK infiltrated the BigBear 2.0 phishing-as-a-service panel in June, finding 5,137 credential records tied to 461 organizations in over 40 countries, including 4,148 captured session cookies and 474 completed post-MFA logins. The operation, built on Evilginx2, uses an attacker-controlled reverse proxy to steal authenticated session cookies and residential proxies to defeat location-based Conditional Access checks, while custom code disables FIDO2/WebAuthn on phishing pages. At least five affiliates operated 42 VPS nodes, with IT services and managed service providers the most targeted sector.

BigBear Microsoft 365 phishing service bypassed MFA at 258 organizations

CloudSEK found the BigBear 2.0 phishing-as-a-service platform bypassed MFA at 258 organizations and captured over 5,000 Microsoft 365 credentials.

CloudSEK researchers gained administrator access to the BigBear 2.0 phishing-as-a-service control panel and found it had exfiltrated 5,137 credential records, including 474 completed MFA-bypassed authentications, 1,032 plaintext passwords, and 4,148 session cookies across 3,331 victim IPs in 40+ countries. The Evilginx2-based AitM proxy intercepts credentials and authenticated session cookies, and custom JavaScript interferes with FIDO2/WebAuthn to force weaker authentication. The panel is leased to at least five affiliate operators via Telegram exfiltration bots, and geo-matched residential proxies cover 69 countries to evade detection.
