CVE-2026-56296 Details
Description
Cap-go before 12.128.2 contains an information disclosure vulnerability in the public.transfer_app RPC function that returns distinct error messages for existing versus non-existing app IDs. Unauthenticated attackers can enumerate valid app IDs by observing error message differences when calling transfer_app with only the publishable API key.
An information disclosure vulnerability has been identified in Cap-go versions prior to 12.128.2. The issue resides in the public.transfer_app RPC function, which is accessible to unauthenticated clients. This function returns different error messages based on whether the provided app ID exists. As a result, unauthenticated attackers can enumerate valid app IDs by analyzing the discrepancies in error messages when using only the publishable API key.
To address this vulnerability, revoke execution permissions for the public transfer_app function from anonymous users. If the transfer function must be accessible from the client, implement strict checks to prevent leaking app existence through error messages.
