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 · unedited
Capgo before 12.128.2 contains a scope isolation vulnerability in the POST /webhooks/test endpoint that allows app-scoped API keys to invoke org-scoped webhook operations. Attackers with app-scoped credentials can trigger signed outbound webhook deliveries for arbitrary organization webhooks outside their declared app boundary, bypassing the limited_to_apps authorization check.

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 confidence

Capgo before 12.128.2 has a scope isolation flaw in the POST /webhooks/test endpoint where app-scoped API keys can bypass the limited_to_apps authorization check to trigger signed outbound webhook deliveries for org-scoped webhooks outside their declared app boundary.

MitigationUpgrade to Capgo version 12.128.2 or later which contains proper scope validation to enforce app/org boundary separation for webhook operations.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify Capgo installation version
    Check your Capgo installation or deployment for the installed version number. Common methods: check package.json if self-hosted, check the application dashboard version display, or query the API if accessible.
    Affected if The installed version is lower than 12.128.2 (e.g., 12.128.1, 12.127.x, earlier versions)
  2. Confirm access to POST /webhooks/test endpoint
    Verify that your Capgo deployment exposes the /webhooks/test endpoint. This is typically a webhook testing endpoint that allows sending test webhook payloads.
    Affected if The endpoint exists and accepts POST requests in your environment
  3. Identify app-scoped API keys in use
    Review your API key inventory or configuration to determine if any API keys are scoped to specific apps (app-scoped keys) rather than organization-wide (org-scoped keys). Check key metadata or permissions settings.
    Affected if You have API keys configured with app-level scope (limited_to_apps setting)
  4. Identify org-scoped webhooks
    Review your webhook configurations to find webhooks defined at the organization level (org-scoped webhooks) that are separate from app-specific webhooks.
    Affected if Org-scoped webhooks exist that differ from the app boundaries of your app-scoped API keys
  5. Verify authorization behavior
    Using an app-scoped API key with limited_to_apps restrictions, attempt to trigger the POST /webhooks/test endpoint to invoke an org-scoped webhook outside the declared app boundary. Observe whether the request succeeds despite the scope restriction.
    Affected if The app-scoped API key successfully triggers org-scoped webhooks that should be outside its authorized scope

Your environment is affected if you run Capgo version below 12.128.2 and have app-scoped API keys that can trigger org-scoped webhooks beyond their declared app boundaries through the /webhooks/test endpoint.

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime
Mitigation

Upgrade to Capgo version 12.128.2 or later which contains proper scope validation to enforce app/org boundary separation for webhook operations.

Recommended fix High confidence

12.128.2 or later

  1. Identify the Capgo installation and confirm the current version is below 12.128.2
  2. Backup the current configuration and data
  3. Upgrade Capgo to version 12.128.2 or later
  4. Verify the upgrade was successful by checking the version number
  5. Test that app-scoped API keys can no longer invoke org-scoped webhook operations through the POST /webhooks/test endpoint
