Authenticated scope bypass via falsy subkey parsing
Published Jun 22, 2026 · Updated Jun 22, 2026
Improper input validation in Capgo before 12.128.2 allows remote authenticated users to bypass subkey scope restrictions via HTTP headers. getSubkeyId converts x-limited-key-id with Number(), and middlewareKey treats NaN and zero as false, skipping the restricted-subkey branch. A valid API key and control of the request header are required; affected requests execute under the broader main-key context.
