Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

The @apostrophecms/form package before 1.5.5, @apostrophecms/login-hcaptcha before 1.3.0, and @apostrophecms/login-recaptcha before 1.2.1 build their CAPTCHA verification requests by inserting the user-supplied token without URL encoding. The source says an attacker can submit a crafted token that adds extra parameters to the outbound verification request, which may cause verification failures and help probe for bypasses, though it reports no secret exfiltration. Upgrade @apostrophecms/form to 1.5.5, @apostrophecms/login-hcaptcha to 1.3.0, and @apostrophecms/login-recaptcha to 1.2.1 or later.
