Microsoft looking at ‘internal leak' after Chinese hackers exploit SharePoint flaw
Microsoft is reportedly investigating whether a leak within its Microsoft Active Protections Program (MAPP), an early alert system for cybersecurity companies, allowed alleged Chinese state-backed hackers to exploit vulnerabilities in its SharePoint service before patches were widely available. The development comes after a security fix released by the tech giant earlier this month reportedly failed to fully address a critical flaw in the server software, leading to widespread cyber espionage attempts. 'As part of our standard process, we'll review this incident, find areas to improve, and apply those improvements broadly,' a Microsoft spokesperson was quoted by Bloomberg as saying. Meanwhile, Microsoft told news agency Reuters that it continually evaluates 'the efficacy and security of all of our partner programs and makes the necessary improvements as needed.' How Microsoft SharePoint was hacked Last week, Microsoft acknowledged that at least two alleged Chinese hacking groups, identified as " Linen Typhoon " and " Violet Typhoon ," along with a third China-based entity, were actively exploiting these weaknesses. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like AirSense 11 – Smart tech for deep sleep ResMed Buy Now Undo The vulnerability in question was first publicly demonstrated in May by Dinh Ho Anh Khoa, a researcher with Vietnamese cybersecurity firm Viettel, at the Pwn2Own cybersecurity conference in Berlin. Khoa was awarded $100,000 for his discovery, prompting Microsoft to release an initial patch in July. However, members of the MAPP program had already been notified of these vulnerabilities on June 24, July 3, and July 7, according to Dustin Childs, head of threat awareness for Trend Micro's Zero Day Initiative, which organises Pwn2Own. Microsoft observed exploit attempts beginning July 7. Childs told Reuters that "the likeliest scenario is that someone in the MAPP program used that information to create the exploits." While the specific vendor responsible for a potential leak remains unclear, Childs speculated, "since many of the exploit attempts come from China, it seems reasonable to speculate it was a company in that region."

'Enigma Of Success': Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella After 15,000 Job Cuts
Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella on Friday said the massive layoffs in 2025 weighed heavily on him, even as the company continued to thrive. In a memo to employees, Mr Nadella said: "Before anything else, I want to speak to what's been weighing heavily on me, and what I know many of you are thinking about: the recent job eliminations. These decisions are among the most difficult we have to make." He acknowledged that while 15,000 roles, including 9,000 in early July, have been cut this year, the company's overall headcount remains largely unchanged. Despite the scale of the workforce reductions, Mr Nadella mentioned that the tech giant was going strong with its market performance, including strategic positioning and growth, all pointing up and to the right. He called it an "enigma of success," adding that tech companies must constantly evolve to stay ahead. The 57-year-old said the company was reimagining its mission to stay relevant in today's fast-changing era. "What does empowerment look like in the era of AI?" he asked. Mr Nadella stated that the company was now looking for building tools that give the ability to people to build their own tools using AI, instead of focusing on tools for specific roles or tasks. "That's the shift we are driving-from a software factory to an intelligence engine empowering every person and organization to build whatever they need to achieve," he added. The CEO also mentioned the company's goals, with three major priorities - security, quality, and AI transformation. "Security and quality are non-negotiable," he added. Earlier this week, US Vice President JD Vance slammed Microsoft for firing 9,000 Americans while still going for H1-B visas, reported Fox Business. "You see some big tech companies where they'll lay off 9,000 workers, and then they'll apply for a bunch of overseas visas." He lambasted the company's hiring practices, stating, "But I don't want companies to fire 9,000 American workers and then to go and say, 'We can't find workers here in America. That's a bulls**t story."
