CVE-2026-56254

capacitor-updaterVulnerabilityCVSS 8.3

In @capgo/capacitor-updater (Cap-go/capgo) before 12.128.2, the end-to-end encryption scheme distributes the private key to each device that downloads the app. Because the public key can be derived from the private key, an attacker performing a man-in-the-middle attack or compromising the Capgo server can create a validly signed update bundle and cause devices to install an update not produced by the original app maker.

No public exploitation has been reported so far. No distribution fix is listed yet; apply vendor mitigations and monitor.

Recommended action: Track your distribution's security tracker and apply the fix as soon as it ships.

Affected & fixed versions by distribution

Versions are the native distribution strings (backport-aware): RHEL/Debian/SUSE backport fixes, so compare with the distro version comparator (dpkg / rpm / vercmp), not the upstream version.

No affected package in the tracked watchlist yet (Debian, Ubuntu, Arch, SUSE, Red Hat...). Triage may still be pending.
