New Passkey Attacks Can Recover Synced Private Keys or Bypass Phishing-Resistant MFA

Three new research efforts have revealed vulnerabilities in passkey authentication systems that bypass their phishing-resistant protections without breaking underlying cryptography. The attacks exploit weaknesses in implementation rather than cryptographic flaws, including reusing exposed Windows authentication material, abusing cloud-synced passkey systems through malware, and other bypass techni
