CVE-2025-29972
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedServer-side request forgery (ssrf) in Azure Storage Resource Provider allows an authorized attacker to perform spoofing over a network.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · moderate confidenceServer-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in Azure Storage Resource Provider enables an authenticated attacker to make the service perform unintended network requests, potentially allowing spoofing of internal services or exfiltration of sensitive data from internal networks.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify Azure Storage Resource Provider usageCheck your Azure subscription for any resources that use the Storage Resource Provider. In Azure Portal, search for 'Storage accounts' or use Azure Resource Graph to query: Resources where type contains 'Microsoft.Storage'Affected if You have any Azure Storage accounts provisioned in your subscription - the Storage Resource Provider handles their management plane operations
-
Verify identity access to Storage Resource ProviderIn Azure Portal, go to Access control (IAM) for your subscription. Review who has Reader or higher role assignments, particularly custom roles that may have permissions to Storage Resource Provider operationsAffected if Multiple users or service principals have elevated access to the subscription where storage resources exist, as an authenticated attacker could leverage this access
-
Inspect network egress configurationReview Azure Network Watcher or NSG flow logs for your VNet integration with Storage services. Look for outbound connections from your storage resource provider to unexpected internal IP rangesAffected if You observe outbound network requests originating from Azure infrastructure to internal/private IP addresses that were not initiated by your workloads, which could indicate exploitation
-
Check for role assignments to Storage Resource ProviderRun Azure CLI command: az role assignment list --scope /subscriptions/<your-sub-id> --include-inherited to list all principal assignments. Look for any assignments with 'Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts/*' permissionsAffected if Any user or service principal has broad storage account management permissions beyond what their role requires, creating potential for authenticated SSRF abuse
If you have Azure Storage accounts in your subscription, you are using the Azure Storage Resource Provider which is vulnerable to this SSRF - the primary detection focus is on identifying who has authenticated access and monitoring for anomalous network requests from the service.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataMonitor Microsoft Azure security advisories for the official patch and apply updates to Azure Storage Resource Provider once released; restrict network access to only trusted endpoints as a defensive measure until patch is available.
