CVE IDs

No specific CVE IDs.

The problem

Attackers now use real-time phishing proxies and "MFA fatigue" to get past one-time codes and push prompts.

Recommended steps

  • Require passkeys or FIDO2 security keys for administrators first.
  • Turn on number matching for any remaining push-based MFA.
  • Block legacy authentication protocols that skip MFA entirely.
  • Alert on new MFA device registrations.
