CVE-2026-56223
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-domain SSO account takeover vulnerability in the provision-user endpoint that allows attackers to merge arbitrary victim accounts based on email match without validating SSO provider domain authorization. An attacker with enterprise org admin access and a malicious IdP can forge SAML assertions containing victim email addresses to trigger account merge and gain full access to victim accounts, organizations, and data.
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 · high confidenceCapgo before 12.128.2 has a cross-domain SSO account takeover vulnerability in the provision-user endpoint. The endpoint fails to validate SSO provider domain authorization when merging accounts based on email matching. An attacker with enterprise org admin access and a malicious IdP can forge SAML assertions containing victim email addresses to trigger unauthorized account merges and gain full access to victim accounts, organizations, and data.

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 application or service in your environment and determine the installed version number. This may be visible in the application UI, package.json, a running service version, or your software bill of materials (SBOM).Affected if The installed version is Capgo and is below version 12.128.2.
-
Confirm SSO/SAML integration is enabledCheck whether the Capgo instance has any SAML-based Single Sign-On (SSO) or OpenID Connect (OIDC) identity provider (IdP) integrations configured. This is typically found in organization settings, authentication settings, or identity provider configuration pages.Affected if SSO or SAML integration is active and configured for the organization.
-
Verify enterprise organization admin access existsExamine whether the Capgo organization has enterprise features enabled and whether any user accounts possess organization-level administrator privileges. Check user role assignments in the admin or user management console.Affected if Enterprise organization and org admin roles are defined in the system.
-
Inspect provision-user endpoint configurationReview the configuration or access logs related to the provision-user endpoint. Determine whether domain validation for SSO providers is enforced before account merging based on email matching. Look for settings controlling which IdPs can trigger account merges.Affected if The provision-user endpoint allows account merges without validating that the SSO provider is authorized for the target email domain.
You are likely affected if you are running Capgo version below 12.128.2 with SSO/SAML integration enabled and enterprise organization admin accounts configured in your environment.

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 to Capgo 12.128.2 or later. Additionally, implement proper SSO provider domain authorization validation in the provision-user endpoint to ensure only legitimate domain-authorized IdPs can trigger account merges.
Capgo version 12.128.2 or later
- Identify the current Capgo installation version by checking the application or deployment configuration
- Review the Capgo release notes or changelog for version 12.128.2 to understand the security fix
- Plan the upgrade process, ensuring backup of current configuration and data
- Upgrade Capgo to version 12.128.2 or later following the standard upgrade procedure for your deployment method
- After upgrade, verify the SSO/SAML configuration and test the provision-user endpoint to confirm the vulnerability is remediated
- Audit existing user accounts for any unauthorized merges that may have occurred prior to the upgrade
