Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-04-02 18:16 - Updated: 2026-07-24 21:10

Severity

6.5 (Medium) - CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H

Summary

A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability was identified in TP-Link Tapo C520WS v2.6 within a configuration handling component due to insufficient input validation. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by supplying an excessively long value for a vulnerable configuration parameter, resulting in a stack overflow. Successful exploitation results in Denial-of-Service (DoS) condition, leading to a service crash or device reboot, impacting availability.
