CVE-2025-14300: TP-Link Tapo Camera HTTPS service authentication bypass in connectAP interface

CVE-2025-14300 · Severity: high · CVSS 8.1 · Published 2025-12-20

TP-Link Tapo security cameras (C200, C425, C100 models) expose an unauthenticated Wi-Fi configuration interface accessible over HTTPS to devices on the local network. An attacker on the same network can reconfigure the camera's Wi-Fi settings without needing any credentials, causing it to disconnect from the network and become unusable until manually reconfigured.

Technologies: TP-Link Tapo C100, TP-Link Tapo C200. Vendors: TP-Link.

Technical details

The vulnerability is an authentication bypass in the connectAP interface exposed by the HTTPS service on affected Tapo camera models. The root cause is insufficient access control on a Wi-Fi configuration endpoint that should require authentication. An unauthenticated attacker on the same local network segment can send requests to modify the device's Wi-Fi configuration parameters, resulting in loss of network connectivity. Attack preconditions are minimal: attacker must be on the adjacent network segment (local LAN). The impact is denial of service, as the affected camera loses connectivity and cannot be accessed remotely until reconnected manually. A patch is expected to introduce proper authentication checks on the connectAP interface.
