CVE-2026-56246: Capgo - Cross-Organization Authorization Bypass via Scoped API Key Privilege Inheritance

HighCVSS 7.2 · v4.0—No exploit Fix available

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 28/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.40% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: Capgo Capgo 12.128.2.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Capgo Capgo 12.128.2 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

Capgo before 12.128.2 contains a broken access control vulnerability in the organization management API where a scoped API key (limited_to_orgs) inherits its owner-user's permissions, allowing destructive cross-organization actions. When a user is an admin in two organizations and creates a write-mode API key restricted to one organization, that key can still perform destructive operations (e.g., DELETE /organization, DELETE /organization/members) against another organization. The root cause is route-level authorization (rbac_check_permission_direct) that evaluates the key owner's user privileges before enforcing the API key's limited_to_orgs scope.
