A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability was identified in TP-Link Tapo C520WS v2.6 within the HTTP parsing loop when appending segmented request bodies without continuous write‑boundary verification, due to insufficient boundary validation when handling externally supplied HTTP input. An attacker on the same network segment could trigger heap memory corruption conditions by sending crafted payloads that cause write operations beyond allocated buffer boundaries. Successful exploitation causes a Denial-of-Service (DoS) condition, causing the device’s process to crash or become unresponsive.
AnalysisAI
Heap-based buffer overflow in TP-Link Tapo C520WS v2.6 allows unauthenticated network attackers to trigger denial-of-service by sending crafted HTTP payloads that bypass boundary validation during segmented request body parsing. The vulnerability exploits insufficient write-boundary verification in the HTTP parsing loop, causing heap memory corruption that crashes or hangs the device process. …
