Exploitation Conditions

The vulnerability requires two specific conditions: (1) the Enforce Password Policy feature must be explicitly enabled within the Capgo organization by a Super Admin, and (2) the Super Admin must subsequently perform a compliant password change through the policy-driven reset flow. The flaw does not affect organizations where the password policy feature is disabled, and it does not affect non-Super Admin accounts. External unauthenticated attackers cannot trigger this condition - it is inherently self-inflicted by the highest-privileged account performing routine administrative configuration. Exploitation is further limited to Capgo versions before 12.128.2. The CVSS PR:H metric confirms the Super Admin privilege requirement. No network-level conditions, special protocol configurations, or external dependencies are required beyond the Capgo platform itself.

Impact

The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N, score 6.9) accurately models the key risk trade-off: network accessibility with low complexity, but gated behind Super Admin privileges (PR:H). The availability impact is high because the lockout is permanent and affects organization-level administrative access, not just a single feature. No EPSS score was provided in the intelligence data, no CISA KEV listing exists, and no public proof-of-concept code has been identified, making real-world exploitation probability non-quantifiable from current data. The threat model is atypical: this is a self-triggered defect rather than an externally exploitable flaw - an attacker cannot force this condition on a victim without already holding Super Admin credentials. The practical severity is highest for organizations with a single Super Admin account, where the lockout could permanently disrupt administrative recovery operations. The absence of confidentiality or integrity impact limits the blast radius to operational disruption.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

A Super Admin navigates to the Capgo organization settings, enables Enforce Password Policy, and proceeds through the mandated password-change flow, entering a new password that meets all policy requirements. The backend accepts the password as valid but fails to flip the compliance flag, so every subsequent login attempt immediately redirects the admin to the password-reset prompt. The Super Admin is permanently locked out of all organization management functions with no self-service recovery path, constituting a complete denial of administrative service.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jun 19, 2026

Capgo's Enforce Password Policy feature in versions before 12.128.2 permanently locks Super Admins out of their organization through a backend state management flaw, constituting a targeted denial-of-service against administrative access. When a Super Admin enables the password policy and successfully changes their password to a policy-compliant value, the backend fails to mark the account compliant, trapping the account in an infinite forced-password-reset loop and severing all organization management access. No public exploit code has been identified and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV; the CVSS 4.0 score of 6.9 reflects the high-privilege prerequisite and pure availability impact with no confidentiality or integrity consequence.

RemediationAI

Upgrade Capgo to version 12.128.2 or later, which resolves the backend compliance-state update failure per vendor GitHub Security Advisory GHSA-78rv-3cqj-36xq (https://github.com/Cap-go/capgo/security/advisories/GHSA-78rv-3cqj-36xq). For organizations unable to patch immediately, the most targeted compensating control is to disable or defer enabling the Enforce Password Policy feature until the upgrade is applied, as the flaw is only triggered by activating this specific feature; note that this reduces password governance posture and may conflict with compliance requirements. Organizations with multiple Super Admin accounts should ensure at least one secondary Super Admin is enrolled and not subject to the lockout, preserving recovery access in the event a primary admin account is trapped in the reset loop.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Capgo is a mobile application live-update platform (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:cap-go:capgo:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*). The vulnerability resides in the backend logic governing the Enforce Password Policy feature's compliance-state lifecycle. Under CWE-287 (Improper Authentication), the authentication state machine incorrectly persists a 'non-compliant' flag after a legitimate and successful password change has been completed. The backend should atomically update the account's compliance status upon confirming a valid compliant password, but this transition is absent. As a result, the authentication flow continuously redirects the Super Admin to the password-reset prompt regardless of credential validity, breaking the expected post-change session state and locking the administrator out of all organization-scoped operations.

DescriptionCVE.org

Capgo before 12.128.2 contains a flaw in the Enforce Password Policy feature: after a Super Admin enables the policy and successfully changes their password to a compliant one, the backend does not update the password-compliance state. As a result, the backend continues to treat the account as non-compliant and repeatedly forces password-reset prompts, permanently locking the Super Admin out of organization access (organization lockout / denial of service) despite valid authentication.
