Exploitation Conditions

Attacker must have enterprise org admin access in Capgo with the ability to configure a SAML IdP they control (the malicious IdP), and must know or guess the email address of the victim account; the vulnerable provision-user endpoint must process the forged SAML assertion and trigger the email-based account merge. Exploitation is limited to deployments where multi-tenant enterprise SSO/SAML provisioning is enabled, and to Capgo versions before 12.128.2; it does not work against single-tenant installs where only one trusted IdP exists, and no end-user interaction by the victim is required.

Impact

The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:H/SI:H/SA:N) honestly captures the situation: network-reachable and low-complexity once the prerequisite is met, but requires high privileges (PR:H) because the attacker must already control an enterprise org and its IdP configuration. There is no EPSS, KEV listing, or POC referenced in the inputs, so this is not confirmed actively exploited and no public exploit identified at time of analysis - risk is primarily to multi-tenant Capgo deployments where any paying enterprise customer could pivot to take over accounts in other tenants. Scope/subsequent-system impact is correctly rated High because a successful merge crosses organizational boundaries. Real-world priority is high for any Capgo customer using SSO, but the PR:H barrier limits opportunistic mass exploitation; the threat model is malicious-customer / insider-tenant rather than internet-wide.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker signs up for a Capgo enterprise org (or compromises an existing tenant admin), configures a malicious SAML IdP under their control, and crafts an assertion stating the email address of a high-value victim in another tenant (for example a victim org's owner). They send the assertion to the provision-user endpoint, which merges the asserted identity into the victim's existing account because the email matches - giving the attacker authenticated access to the victim's account, organization, and stored data. No public PoC is referenced, but the attack is mechanically straightforward given a standard SAML toolkit.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jun 24, 2026

Cross-domain SSO account takeover in Capgo before 12.128.2 allows an attacker with enterprise org admin access and a malicious IdP to forge SAML assertions and merge arbitrary victim accounts based solely on email match. The provision-user endpoint fails to validate that the asserting SSO provider is authorized for the victim's email domain, granting full takeover of accounts, organizations, and data. No public exploit identified at time of analysis; CVSS 4.0 base is 9.3 (Critical) reflecting high impact across both vulnerable and subsequent systems.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: upgrade Capgo to 12.128.2 or later, which adds domain-authorization validation to the provision-user endpoint so SAML email assertions are only honored for domains the asserting IdP is authorized for; see the upstream advisory at https://github.com/Cap-go/capgo/security/advisories/GHSA-jhjh-vp9p-54fg for fix details. If immediate upgrade is not possible, restrict creation of enterprise organizations and IdP configurations to vetted customers only, audit existing IdP-to-domain mappings and revoke any IdP that asserts domains it does not legitimately own, and temporarily disable automatic account-merge-on-email behavior in the provision-user flow (trade-off: legitimate SSO onboarding will require manual admin merge). Monitor provisioning logs for SAML assertions where the asserting org's verified domains do not match the asserted email domain and alert on cross-tenant merges.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Capgo is a live-update and OTA delivery platform for Capacitor-based mobile applications, offering enterprise SSO via SAML. The flaw is rooted in CWE-287 (Improper Authentication): the provision-user endpoint accepts a SAML assertion from any tenant's configured IdP and uses the asserted email address as the sole key for merging into an existing account, with no check that the asserting tenant/IdP owns or is authorized for that email's domain. This is a classic multi-tenant SSO trust-boundary failure where the application trusts identity claims across tenant boundaries rather than scoping each IdP to its verified domain(s).

DescriptionCVE.org

Capgo before 12.128.2 contains a cross-domain SSO account takeover vulnerability in the provision-user endpoint that allows attackers to merge arbitrary victim accounts based on email match without validating SSO provider domain authorization. An attacker with enterprise org admin access and a malicious IdP can forge SAML assertions containing victim email addresses to trigger account merge and gain full access to victim accounts, organizations, and data.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Capgo versions before 12.128.2 contain a critical SSO vulnerability enabling account and organizational takeover through forged SAML assertions when combined with enterprise org admin access and a malicious identity provider. All organizations using Capgo with enterprise single sign-on face potential compromise of user accounts, organizational settings, and sensitive data. Leadership must prioritize immediate containment and vendor coordination given the critical severity and full-control impact across affected instances.

Business Impact: Severe
Compensating Controls

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: (1) Restrict enterprise organization administrator role to minimum required personnel and audit current assignments; (2) Implement network-level SAML assertion validation and inspection at identity provider connection boundaries; (3) Disable Capgo enterprise SSO functionality if business operations permit; (4) Deploy comprehensive logging and real-time alerting on all account merge and organizational role change events; (5) Audit and validate the trust chain and metadata sources for all configured identity providers.
