DescriptionCVE.org

An improper input validation vulnerability in the configuration service for processing encrypted credential data has been identified in Tapo C200 v5.  An attacker can send oversized crypted ciphertext values that may trigger exception handling failures, due to insufficient validation, causing the affected device to crash or restart.

Successful exploitation may temporarily disrupt HTTPS management and monitoring functionality, resulting in a denial-of-service (DoS) condition until the service recovers.

AnalysisAI

Denial-of-service in TP-Link Tapo C200 v5 IP cameras allows adjacent-network unauthenticated attackers to crash the device's configuration service by submitting oversized encrypted ciphertext payloads that trigger unhandled exceptions. Affected firmware versions prior to V5_1.4.6 Build 260709 Rel.27675n are confirmed vulnerable per ENISA EUVD-2026-62194; successful exploitation temporarily disables HTTPS management and monitoring until the service self-recovers, with no confidentiality or integrity impact. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires the attacker to be on the same adjacent network segment (LAN, VLAN, or wireless network) as the target Tapo C200 v5 device, as confirmed by the AV:A metric in the CVSS 4.0 vector. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 score of 7.1, derived from a vector of AV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N, reflects a moderate-to-high availability-only impact constrained to the adjacent network attack surface. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation The primary remediation is to upgrade Tapo C200 v5 firmware to V5_1.4.6 Build 260709 Rel.27675n or a later release, available from the TP-Link support portal at https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/download/tapo-c200/v5/; update procedures are documented in the TP-Link FAQ at https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/faq/5248/. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, inventory all TP-Link Tapo C200 cameras in your environment and identify which are running firmware versions prior to V5_1.4.6 Build 260709 Rel.27675n; immediately isolate confirmed vulnerable units to a dedicated network segment with restricted access from adjacent networks. …
