3DescriptionCVE.org
Cap-go capgo (capgo-backend) before 12.128.12 contains an unauthenticated denial-of-service vulnerability arising from the audit_logs table's Row-Level Security (RLS) policy when accessed via the Supabase PostgREST API. Because the PostgreSQL query planner executes costly logic before RLS rejection, unfiltered queries to the public.audit_logs endpoint using the public anon key consistently trigger statement timeouts (PostgREST error 57014). Under concurrency, this exhausts database resources and causes cascading HTTP 500 failures on unrelated endpoints (e.g. /orgs), resulting in an application-layer denial of service.
AnalysisAI
Unauthenticated denial of service in Cap-go capgo (capgo-backend) before 12.128.12 allows remote attackers to exhaust PostgreSQL resources by sending unfiltered queries to the public.audit_logs PostgREST endpoint using the public anon key. Because the query planner runs expensive logic before Row-Level Security rejection, repeated requests trigger statement timeouts (error 57014) and cascade into HTTP 500 failures on unrelated endpoints such as /orgs. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires only that the target run a Capgo backend before 12.128.12 with the default audit_logs RLS policy reachable through Supabase PostgREST, and that the attacker possess the Supabase anon key, which is intentionally public and embedded in the Capgo client. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 vector AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N with VA:H accurately reflects a trivially reachable, high-availability-impact flaw: any client holding the publicly distributed anon key can issue the request, and concurrency amplifies the effect to unrelated endpoints. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker extracts the publicly embedded Supabase anon key from any Capgo-powered mobile app or the Capgo web client, then scripts concurrent GET requests against https://<capgo-host>/rest/v1/audit_logs. Each request stalls until statement_timeout fires, and within seconds connection-pool and CPU pressure cause unrelated endpoints like /orgs to return HTTP 500, taking the update-delivery API offline for legitimate client devices. |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: upgrade capgo-backend to 12.128.12 or later, as documented in GHSA-5vgv-rqj5-5748 (https://github.com/Cap-go/capgo/security/advisories/GHSA-5vgv-rqj5-5748) which rewrites the audit_logs RLS policy so the anon role is rejected before the expensive query plan executes. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
24 hours: Inventory all Cap-go capgo-backend instances and identify those running versions before 12.128.12; enable detailed logging and monitoring on the public.audit_logs PostgREST endpoint for anomalous query patterns. …
