services / Azure / Virtual Hub

A Virtual Hub is the routing core of an Azure Virtual WAN, terminating branch/VNet connections and holding the route tables that steer traffic across the WAN.

The hub is the central routing point of a Virtual WAN; controlling its routing redirects or intercepts traffic across every connected VNet and branch.

Creating/updating a hub lets an attacker rewrite the WAN routing that steers traffic between connected VNets and branches, redirecting or intercepting flows across the WAN and tampering with routing configuration.
