CVE-2026-56256
Capgo - Two-Factor Authentication Bypass via Organization Management API
Description

Capgo before 12.128.2 enforces mandatory two-factor authentication only at the UI level. Sensitive Organization (ORG) management API endpoints (e.g., editing organization details, inviting users) do not validate 2FA completion on the backend. An authenticated Admin user who has not enabled 2FA can replay or modify a previously captured ORG API request to perform privileged organization actions, bypassing the globally enforced 2FA requirement.

Solution
Enforce 2FA validation on the backend for all API requests involving sensitive actions.
  • Implement backend 2FA checks for sensitive API endpoints.
  • Require 2FA completion before processing privileged organization actions.
  • Update API to validate 2FA status server-side.
  • Apply security patches to enforce 2FA universally.
