In affected TP-Link Aginet devices, use of hardcoded cryptographic keys embedded in the firmware to protect sensitive configuration data may allow an attacker who has access to device storage to recover the keys and decrypt stored data. Successful exploitation may allow access to decrypted sensitive configuration data, including credentials and service-related information.

In affected TP-Link Aginet devices, insufficient authorization validation allows authenticated low-privileged users to execute higher-privileged operations. An attacker may perform administrative actions such as creating privileged accounts or modifying critical configuration settings.

The affected TP-Link Aginet devices contain a flaw in the web management interface where authentication checks are not consistently enforced on certain endpoints. An attacker can send specially crafted requests to bypass authentication and directly invoke privileged functionality without valid credentials. This issue arises from improper enforcement of access control mechanisms on sensitive operations. Successful exploitation may allow an unauthenticated attacker to execute privileged operations and gain full control of the device.

A Zip Slip vulnerability in the WebUI ISP Upgrade functionality allows arbitrary file write via a crafted archive containing directory traversal sequences. An authenticated administrator may overwrite arbitrary files on the system.Successful exploitation may allow arbitrary file to be overwritten on the underlying system, affecting system integrity and availability.

An input validation vulnerability exists in the HTTP-WRITEOEM handler due to insufficient validation of user-supplied data before it is processed by internal flash-write handling logic. Successful exploitation may cause httpd process or device to crash, resulting in loss of access to the web interface and a denial-of-service condition.

A denial-of-service vulnerability exists in httpd service on Archer A6 v4 where the asynchronous systool instruction handlng path in httpd does not properly synchronize or safely manage concurrent systool operations.  By sending crafted systool instructions through the asynchronous request path, successful exploitation may cause the httpd process or device management service to crash and may result in temporary loss of access to the web management interface or device reboot.

Tapo P110 v1 smart Wi-Fi Plug contains an improper boundary validation vulnerability in the handling of authenticated HTTP request bodies due to insufficient input validation before memory copy operations. This may lead to buffer overflow condition, causing the web service process to crash. Successful exploitation may cause the web service process to stop responding or restart, resulting in a denial-of-service condition.

A cryptographic weakness exists in affected Omada devices where site credentials are protected using a legacy hashing algorithm that does not provide sufficient protection. An attacker who obtains access to stored credential data may be able to recover valid credentials to gain unauthorized access to affected devices or management environments.

A race condition exists in the cloud-based Omada device adoption process when an attacker may be able to interact with the adoption workflow before a legitimate device completes registration, resulting in provisioning information being delivered to an attacker. Successful exploitation may allow disclosure of provisioning information intended for a legitimate device.

A cryptographic weakness exists in the Omada adoption protocol where session encryption keys used to protect communications between controllers and managed devices may be predictable due to insufficient entropy in session key generation. An attacker who successfully intercepts adoption-related communications may be able to recover session encryption keys and decrypt affected communications.

Affected Omada devices rely on embedded certificates that are shared across deployments to establish trust between controllers and managed devices. An attacker who obtains the embedded certificates may be able to impersonate trusted controllers or devices and intercept affected communications.

A cryptographic weakness exists in the Omada adoption protocol.  The protocol relies on hard-coded cryptographic keys to establish trust and protect authentication exchanges between controllers and managed devices during device adoption. An attacker may be able to impersonate trusted controllers or managed devices and gain access to sensitive adoption-related communications.

A cryptographic weakness exists in the Omada device adoption process.  During adoption, authentication credentials associated with site management are transmitted using a weak hashing algorithm that does not provide sufficient protection. An attacker who successfully intercepts adoption-related authentication traffic may be able to recover valid credentials and gain unauthorized access to managed devices or controller-managed environments.

CVE-2025-9291 is a high-severity vulnerability in TP-Link Omada Gateways involving improper certificate validation. The affected devices do not adequately verify that a presented certificate matches the expected cloud controller hostname. This weakness could allow an attacker to bypass certificate validation protections under certain conditions, potentially enabling interception or modification of communications between the devices and cloud controllers.

An OS command injection vulnerability exists in the VPN module of TP-Link AXE75 V1 routers. This vulnerability allows an adjacent, authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the device by importing a specially crafted VPN client configuration file. The issue arises from improper filtering of special characters.  Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may enable an attacker to gain full control of the affected device, potentially compromising configuration integrity, network security, and service availability.

The TL-WR940N v6 router contains a vulnerability in its RTSP connection tracking module that can lead to a stack-based buffer overflow. The issue occurs when a LAN client initiates a connection to a malicious RTSP server controlled by an attacker. A specially crafted RTSP message may trigger improper memory handling within the kernel module Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in a denial-of-service (DoS) condition or allow remote code execution (RCE), potentially leading to full compromise of the device. This vulnerability can be exploited by an unauthenticated attacker under the device's default configuration.

A hardcoded credential vulnerability exists in the firmware of multiple TP-Link routers (TL-WR845N v4, TL-WR850N v3, TL-WR902AC v4, Archer C20 v6 & Archer MR200 v5).  Authentication-related credential material is embedded within a password file in the firmware image and may be recovered through firmware analysis. Successful exploitation could result in unauthorized access to privileged functions on affected devices.

An information disclosure vulnerability was identified in TP-Link Kasa EC70 v4 and EC71 v4 in the local discovery mechanism, which exposes sensitive geolocation information without requiring authentication. This issue allows an attacker on the same local network to retrieve geolocation-related data through crafted responses. The vulnerability impacts confidentiality only, with no evidence of integrity of availability impact.

Kasa EC71 v4 and EC70 v4 firmware contains a static cryptographic private key stored in a read-only filesystem that is shared across devices.  An attacker with access to the firmware image can extract the embedded key.  Successful exploitation may allow an unauthenticated attacker on the same network to use this key in the web management service, compromising the confidentiality of encrypted communications. This may enable passive decryption of traffic or active man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks

TP-Link Deco M5 v1 uses a weak password hashing mechanism to store user credentials. An attacker who obtains the password hash through system compromise or privileged access could perform brute-force or dictionary attacks. Successful exploitation may result in disclosure of authentication credentials, enabling unauthorized access to device management functions, depending on the privileges associated with the recovered password. The primary security impact is loss of confidentiality.
