What is CVE-2026-105814?
CVE-2026-105814 is a medium-severity authentication bypass vulnerability in TP-Link Systems Inc. Tapo C210 v3.6, published on 19 Oct 2026. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.
Official description
TP-Link Tapo C210 V3.60 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability in the DS JSON API. A crafted JSON request containing both a protected operation and public onboarding-related fields may cause module-level authorization checks to be applied inconsistently, allowing protected camera operations, including pan-tilt-zoom control, to be executed without a valid authenticated session.
Successful exploitation may allow an unauthenticated attacker on the adjacent network to perform protected camera operations, including pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) control, without a valid authenticated session. This could result in unauthorized manipulation of camera functionality.
Weakness: CWE-287
