Description

Identifies the default user agent string associated with Kali365 (also referred to as Kali365 Live), a phishing-as-a-service (PhaaS) platform that automates OAuth 2.0 device code phishing and adversary-in-the-middle (AiTM) session capture against Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Entra ID. The Kali365 Electron desktop client identifies itself with the user agent `kali365-live/1.0.0` when polling for and replaying captured OAuth tokens, so its appearance in Entra ID sign-in logs, Entra ID audit logs, or the Microsoft 365 unified audit log indicates that an attacker-controlled Kali365 client is interacting with the tenant using stolen tokens. Unlike dual-use offensive tooling, Kali365 is a criminal service with no legitimate enterprise use, making this user agent a high-fidelity indicator of active account compromise.

Detection logic

Its licence does not clear it for publishing here

Sunturai publishes a detection's own text where the licence it arrived under has been reviewed and permits it, and Elastic License 2.0 has not. The query as its source wrote it, its canonical form and the hash that pins this revision are in the workspace record.

Known benign triggers

  • Security researchers, sandbox detonations, or red team engagements that intentionally run the Kali365 client against a monitored tenant may generate this user agent. Document approved research activity and exclude the associated principals, source IPs, or tenants if expected.
