- Microsoft reported legitimate adobe emails as a spam
- The company blamed it with an error with its automatic learning model
- The problem now seems to be solved
Microsoft has corrected a boring bug where an online online automatic learning model had mistakenly reported legitimate adobe emails in the form of spam.
The spam error was relatively short -lived, covering a period of two days between April 22 at 9:04 a.m. UTC and April 24 at 11:04 am UTC.
It is believed that the company’s automatic learning model wrongly reported emails because of their similarity with spam emails, and in particular affected emails containing Adobe URL.
Adobe’s emails are no longer marked as spam
“We have determined that our automatic learning model (ML), which saves the online exchange for risky emails, wrongly identified legitimate emails like Spam because of their similarity with emails used in spam attacks, which caused an impact,” said Microsoft.
The accident was detailed in a advice on the Microsoft 365 Admin Center under the ex1061430 tag (via BIP computer).
Coinciding with Microsoft’s erroneous service, the Any.Run malware analysis service has recorded a large increase in the number of Adobe Acrobat Cloud links for personal documents that have been submitted by Microsoft Defender XDR.
Any.run shared on X: “After research, we discovered that Microsoft Defender XDR pointed out Acrobat[.]adobe[.]Com / Id / Urne: AAID: SC: As malicious. “”
“To solve the problem, we initiated Replay Time Travel (RTT) on the URLs assigned to fully resolve the impact. The impact was specific to certain users who were served by the affected infrastructure,” added Microsoft.
Any.Run noted the ininstalled consequences created by a combination of his services, the XDR defender and the automatic learning error of Microsoft. Because the legitimate URLs linking personal and work documents were subject to any one.run, service users have “downloaded more than a thousand Adobe files with sensitive corporate data from hundreds of companies”.
“To stop leaks, we do all these private analyzes,” confirmed Any.run.
