Microsoft Unifies Copilot Apps and Drops Three Legacy Features

Microsoft is merging its consumer Copilot and Microsoft 365 Copilot into a single unified app. Desktop users will switch to the new app, while Microsoft 365 Copilot users can update their current one; chats and content migrate and merge under the unified experience. The three legacy features—Podcasts, Deep Research, and Group Chat—will be discontinued on August 18, and users should export any data beforehand, with replacements available from other AI tools.

Microsoft unifies Copilot experiences into a single 'super app' ahead of launch

Microsoft is merging its consumer and commercial Copilot apps into a single unified interface called a 'super app,' starting with Copilot and Microsoft 365 Copilot. The rollout will begin mid-August for mobile/web and mid-September for Windows and Mac, with chats and content merged for users of both apps while personal and work data remain separate. Some features, such as Podcasts and Deep Research, will be retired on August 18, and other features may be temporarily unavailable during the rollout. Core Copilot capabilities remain free, and this move lays the groundwork for the broader super app planned later this year.

Three-stage flaw turns Copilot Enterprise into a one-click data thief

Three-stage flaw turns Copilot Enterprise into a one-click data thief

A three-stage vulnerability chain dubbed SearchLeak lets attackers exfiltrate sensitive data from a target’s Microsoft 365 Copilot Enterprise sources (mail, OneDrive, SharePoint) via a crafted Copilot Search URL. The chain combines a parameter-to-prompt injection, an HTML rendering race condition, and a CSP bypass enabled by Bing SSRF. When a victim clicks the link, Copilot performs the search and formats results into an image URL; the browser then requests that image through Bing, revealing the data to the attacker in the logs. Microsoft patched CVE-2026-42824 with a critical rating; no user action is required, but the incident highlights how prompt injection can weaponize legacy bugs in AI-enabled tools.

Microsoft to Launch and Auto-Install Copilot AI Across Devices and Platforms in October

Microsoft will begin automatically installing the Microsoft 365 Copilot app on Windows devices outside the EEA starting in October, with the rollout completing by mid-November. The app integrates AI-powered Copilot features into Microsoft 365 apps and will be enabled by default, though admins can opt out. The move aims to simplify access to Copilot's productivity features, with plans to expand the installation process globally in 2025.

Critical Security Flaw in Microsoft 365 Copilot Raises Zero-Click Attack Concerns

Researchers uncovered 'EchoLeak,' a critical zero-click vulnerability in Microsoft 365 Copilot that allows silent exfiltration of sensitive data through prompt injection, highlighting emerging risks in AI-integrated enterprise systems. Microsoft fixed the flaw in May, with no evidence of exploitation, but the attack demonstrates the need for enhanced defenses against LLM scope violations.

Microsoft 365 Copilot: Affordable AI Assistance for Businesses and Educators

Microsoft has made its Microsoft 365 Copilot generally available for enterprises worldwide, but customers are unhappy with the minimum requirement of purchasing at least 300 seats. The additional cost of $30 per user per month, on top of existing subscriptions, has caused frustration among SMEs. Users on Microsoft forums have expressed disappointment, arguing that smaller companies could benefit from the Copilot capabilities as much as larger enterprises. Microsoft has not addressed the needs of customers unable to meet the minimum purchase requirement.
