AzureFox - offensive-focused Azure situational awareness CLI

AzureFox

AzureFox is a Python CLI for offensive-focused Azure situational awareness. It helps operators and testers figure out what Azure identity, network, secrets, and workload exposure they can actually see from management-plane read paths.

Quickstart

pip install azurefox

By default, AzureFox writes artifacts into your current directory. If you want them somewhere else, pass --outdir:

azurefox --outdir ./azurefox-demo whoami --output table
azurefox --outdir ./azurefox-demo all-checks --output table

If you prefer an isolated virtual environment:

python -m venv .venv
# macOS/Linux
source .venv/bin/activate
# Windows PowerShell
# .venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1
pip install azurefox

For local source-based development, use pip install -e '.[dev]'.

AzureFox is intended to work on macOS, Linux, and Windows. The command examples below use portable relative paths like ./azurefox-demo; shell syntax mainly differs for virtualenv activation and environment-variable export.

For a quick operator-focused summary of what changes across shells and what does not, see docs/wiki-seed/Platform-Notes.md.

Need A Test Lab?

Don't have an Azure environment handy? The companion repo AzureFox OpenTofu Proof Lab spins up a deliberately insecure Azure lab for demos, validation, and practice.

Use a disposable subscription you control. It is risky on purpose.

Currently Supported Azure Commands

• whoami
• inventory
• nics
• dns
• endpoints
• network-effective
• network-ports
• workloads
• app-services
• functions
• aks
• api-mgmt
• acr
• databases
• arm-deployments
• env-vars
• tokens-credentials

• principals
• permissions
• privesc
• role-trusts
• auth-policies
• managed-identities
• keyvault
• resource-trusts
• storage
• vms

CLI Invocation

Shared flags like --tenant, --subscription, --output, --outdir, and --debug work before or after the command.

These forms are equivalent:

azurefox dns --output json --outdir ./azurefox-demo
azurefox --output json --outdir ./azurefox-demo dns

Use azurefox <command> --help or azurefox help <command> for command-specific help.

Install Profiles

AzureFox installs the live Azure runtime dependencies by default so pip install azurefox is ready for real Azure command execution.

• pip install azurefox installs the normal operator profile from PyPI, including the Azure SDK dependencies used by the implemented live commands
• pip install -e . installs the same live Azure command profile from a local checkout
• pip install -e '.[dev]' installs contributor tooling on top of the default live Azure dependencies; this is the normal repo development profile

Auth Precedence

1. Azure CLI credential
2. Environment/service principal credential

Web auth (browser-based) via Azure CLI

If you want web-based authentication, run az login first (outside AzureFox), then run AzureFox. AzureFox does not currently launch its own browser auth flow.

Azure CLI example:

az login
az account set --subscription <subscription-id>
azurefox inventory --subscription <subscription-id>

Non-web auth (no az login required)

If you do not want to use web auth, set service principal environment variables and pass CLI flags for tenant/subscription targeting.

Environment credential + CLI options example:

# macOS/Linux
export AZURE_TENANT_ID=<tenant-id>
export AZURE_CLIENT_ID=<client-id>
export AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET=<client-secret>
azurefox whoami --tenant <tenant-id> --subscription <subscription-id>

# Windows PowerShell
$env:AZURE_TENANT_ID="<tenant-id>"
$env:AZURE_CLIENT_ID="<client-id>"
$env:AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET="<client-secret>"
azurefox whoami --tenant <tenant-id> --subscription <subscription-id>

Output Modes

• --output table (default)
• --output json
• --output csv

All commands write artifacts under <outdir>/:

• loot/<command>.json
• json/<command>.json
• table/<command>.txt
• csv/<command>.csv
• run-summary.json for all-checks

Sections And All-Checks

AzureFox keeps flat standalone commands and also supports grouped execution:

azurefox all-checks
azurefox all-checks --section identity
azurefox all-checks --section config
azurefox all-checks --section secrets
azurefox all-checks --section resource
azurefox all-checks --section network
azurefox all-checks --section storage
azurefox all-checks --section compute

Treat all-checks as a broader validation pass, not a quick spot check. It can take much longer than a single command, especially when a full section is writing grouped artifacts.

Current section mappings:

• identity: whoami, rbac, principals, permissions, privesc, role-trusts, auth-policies, managed-identities
• config: arm-deployments, env-vars
• secrets: keyvault, tokens-credentials
• resource: acr, api-mgmt, databases, resource-trusts
• storage: storage
• network: nics, dns, endpoints, network-ports
• compute: workloads, app-services, functions, aks, vms
• core: inventory

Help

AzureFox supports generic and scoped help:

azurefox help
azurefox help identity
azurefox help permissions
azurefox dns --help
azurefox -h identity
azurefox -h permissions

Command help includes ATT&CK cloud leads as investigation prompts, not proof that a technique occurred.

For ad hoc demos or local testing, use a dedicated path like --outdir ./azurefox-demo so artifacts do not pile up in the repo root.

Fixture Mode

Set AZUREFOX_FIXTURE_DIR to run against local fixture files rather than Azure APIs.

# macOS/Linux
AZUREFOX_FIXTURE_DIR=tests/fixtures/lab_tenant azurefox rbac --output json

# Windows PowerShell
$env:AZUREFOX_FIXTURE_DIR="tests/fixtures/lab_tenant"
azurefox rbac --output json

Development

pip install -e '.[dev]'
ruff check .
pytest

CI runs lint plus unit, contract, and smoke tests. Integration tests are opt-in.
