German and U.S. authorities dismantled Kratos, a widely used phishing kit that stole Microsoft 365 session cookies to bypass MFA, shutting down 200+ servers and affecting about 1,800 paying customers who ran some 15,000 campaigns a month. Victims number in the hundreds of thousands across 30+ countries; operators earned over €300,000 since 2024. The kit offered credential-only mode or a real-time adversary-in-the-middle reverse-proxy mode. Microsoft Threat Intelligence links it to SneakyLog; campaigns have used tax-themed W-2 emails with QR codes to lure targets. Stolen credentials can be sold or used to move laterally in Microsoft 365. Mitigations include password resets with MFA checks for credential-only hits, revoking sessions for session-stealing hits, and adopting phishing-resistant sign-ins for high-value accounts. Indicators include login-page assets barr.svg and lg.svg and endpoints like next.php or save.php. The takedown halts Kratos campaigns for now, but the kit and its customers persist elsewhere.
