CVE-2026-56079
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedCapgo before 12.128.2 contains a cross-tenant authorization bypass vulnerability in PostgREST endpoints that allows org-scoped read API keys to access other tenants' webhook secrets and delivery logs. Attackers can query the webhooks and webhook_deliveries endpoints to exfiltrate HMAC signing secrets and delivery payloads, enabling forged webhook events against victim organizations.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · moderate confidenceCapgo before 12.128.2 has a cross-tenant authorization bypass in PostgREST endpoints where org-scoped read API keys can access other tenants' webhook data. Attackers can query webhooks and webhook_deliveries endpoints to exfiltrate HMAC signing secrets and delivery payloads, then forge webhook events against victim organizations.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify Capgo installation and versionLocate the Capgo installation (self-hosted instance, Docker container, or managed service) and retrieve the installed version number. Common methods: check package.json, Docker image tag, admin dashboard 'About' page, or API endpoint like /api/versionAffected if Version is below 12.128.2 (e.g., 12.128.1, 12.127.x, or earlier)
-
Confirm PostgREST API is enabledVerify that PostgREST endpoints are accessible in the Capgo environment. Check if the API server exposes REST endpoints at paths such as /rest/v1/webhooks or similar. Inspect server configuration files or network routes for PostgREST service availabilityAffected if PostgREST endpoints are reachable and serve webhook-related tables (webhooks, webhook_deliveries)
-
Review API key scopes and tenant isolationExamine existing API keys in the Capgo system, particularly those with 'read' scope and 'org' level access. Check if keys are tied to a specific organization ID and whether the API enforces tenant boundaries when querying webhooks tableAffected if Org-scoped read API keys exist and can query webhooks or webhook_deliveries tables without explicit tenant filtering
-
Test cross-tenant webhook accessUsing an org-scoped read API key from one organization, attempt to query the webhooks or webhook_deliveries endpoints with a different organization's ID in the request. Compare returned data against the expected scoped organizationAffected if API key returns webhook data (including HMAC signing secrets or delivery payloads) belonging to a different tenant than the key's owner
-
Inspect webhook data for sensitive exposureReview the actual contents returned by webhooks and webhook_deliveries endpoints. Check if HMAC signing secrets, delivery payloads, or other sensitive configuration data is exposed in API responses that should be restricted to the key's organizationAffected if API responses include HMAC secrets or delivery payloads from organizations other than the one associated with the API key
You are affected if Capgo version is below 12.128.2 AND org-scoped read API keys can access webhook data from other tenants via PostgREST endpoints.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scopedUpgrade Capgo to version 12.128.2 or later to patch the authorization bypass. Review and rotate any exposed HMAC signing secrets and audit API key usage for unauthorized cross-tenant access.
Capgo version 12.128.2 or later
- 1. Identify the current Capgo installation version by checking the running instance or deployment configuration
- 2. If the current version is before 12.128.2, plan for an upgrade to version 12.128.2 or later
- 3. Review Capgo upgrade documentation for your deployment method (e.g., npm package, Docker container, self-hosted)
- 4. Perform the upgrade following standard upgrade procedures for your installation method
- 5. After upgrade, verify that org-scoped API keys can no longer access cross-tenant webhook secrets and delivery logs
- 6. Consider rotating any HMAC signing secrets that may have been exposed during the vulnerability window
