Capgo - Broken Object Level Authorization via x-limited-key-id Header
Description

Capgo before 12.128.2 contains a broken object level authorization vulnerability in middlewareKey() that accepts the client-controlled x-limited-key-id header without validating ownership, allowing authenticated users to adopt cross-tenant limited keys.
