CVE-2026-105814: TP-Link Tapo C210 authentication bypass in DS JSON API

CVE-2026-105814 · Severity: info · Published 2026-10-19

The TP-Link Tapo C210 is a pan-tilt-zoom network camera used for home and business surveillance. A crafted JSON request can trick the camera's authentication system into allowing pan-tilt-zoom control and other protected operations without a valid login. An attacker on the local network could remotely manipulate camera positioning and functionality without authorization.

Technical details

An order-dependent authentication bypass in the DS JSON API allows attackers to bypass module-level authorization checks by combining protected operations with public onboarding-related JSON fields in a single request. The vulnerability requires adjacent network access and no authentication, allowing execution of privileged camera operations including PTZ control. A fix is available in firmware build 260818.
