Capgo before 12.128.2 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability in the channel creation endpoint that allows authenticated users to overwrite existing channels by reusing their names. Attackers with app.create_channel permission can exploit a logic mismatch between existence validation and upsert operations to reassign channel ownership and modify critical production channel configurations.
