Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
Capgo before 12.128.2 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability in its public API key management handlers (get/put/delete/post). API keys created with mode=all but restricted to a single app via limited_to_apps are only checked for limited_to_orgs and not for limited_to_apps, so an app-scoped key can enumerate, update, and delete sibling API keys belonging to the same account that are outside its declared app scope, enabling tampering with account-level credentials.
AnalysisAI
Authorization bypass in Capgo before 12.128.2 lets authenticated holders of an app-scoped public API key enumerate, modify, or delete other API keys on the same account that belong to different applications. The flaw stems from missing limited_to_apps enforcement in the get/put/delete/post key-management handlers, which only validate the limited_to_orgs scope. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, though the issue is disclosed via a GitHub Security Advisory and VulnCheck.
Technical ContextAI
Capgo is an open-source live-update and over-the-air (OTA) delivery platform for Capacitor-based mobile applications, distributed primarily via the Cap-go/capgo project. Its public API uses scoped API keys where a key created with mode=all is intended to be further constrained by two orthogonal scopes: limited_to_orgs (organization scope) and limited_to_apps (per-application scope). The vulnerable handlers correctly evaluate the organization scope but omit the per-app scope check, producing a CWE-269 Improper Privilege Management condition: a credential is granted broader effective authority than its declared scope implies, breaking the isolation boundary between sibling apps under the same account.
RemediationAI
Vendor-released patch: upgrade Capgo to 12.128.2 or later, per GHSA-hwc7-j2p6-43xp (https://github.com/Cap-go/capgo/security/advisories/GHSA-hwc7-j2p6-43xp). Until the upgrade can be deployed, the most effective compensating control is to rotate and stop issuing mode=all keys that rely on limited_to_apps for isolation - replace them with keys whose mode is narrowed to only the operations required (read/write/upload) so the affected get/put/delete/post key-management endpoints are not reachable; the trade-off is that workflows expecting a single broad key may need to be split into per-purpose keys. Additionally, audit account API key inventories for unexpected creations, modifications, or deletions performed by app-scoped keys, and revoke any credentials whose provenance cannot be confirmed.
