Why might the Microsoft Entra seamless SSO computer account old password be a risk?

Microsoft Entra seamless SSO automatically signs in users when they're using their corporate desktops that are connected to your corporate network. Seamless SSO provides your users with easy access to your cloud-based applications without using any other on-premises components. When setting up Microsoft Entra Seamless SSO, a computer account named AZUREADSSOACC is created in Active Directory. By default, the password for this Azure SSO computer account is not automatically updated every 30 days. This password functions as a shared secret between AD and Microsoft Entra, enabling Microsoft Entra to decrypt Kerberos tickets used in the seamless SSO process between Active Directory and Microsoft Entra ID. If an attacker gains control of this account, they can generate service tickets for the AZUREADSSOACC account on behalf of any user and impersonate any user within the Microsoft Entra tenant that has been synchronized from Active Directory. This could allow an attacker to move laterally from Active Directory into Microsoft Entra ID.
