This podcast episode/article covers Wiz researcher Nir Ohfeld's discovery of "CHAOS DB," a critical flaw in Azure Cosmos DB's Jupyter Notebook feature that could have allowed remote attackers to obtain full administrative (read/write/delete) access across other customers' Cosmos DB instances. The report notes that thousands of organizations — including Fortune 500 companies — were potentially affected, and Microsoft disabled the Jupyter Notebook feature following disclosure; the discussion emphasizes mitigation steps and broader cloud-security risks.
