CVE-2026-13230: TP-Link Kasa EC70 and EC71 information disclosure in local discovery

CVE-2026-13230 · Severity: info · CVSS 5.3 · Published 2026-07-15

TP-Link Kasa smart cameras are used for home security and monitoring. A security flaw in the local discovery feature allows anyone on the same Wi-Fi network to see the camera's precise physical location without needing a password. This could allow an unauthorized person to track the device's location, though it does not allow them to view video feeds or control the camera.

Technologies: TP-Link Kasa EC70, TP-Link Kasa EC71. Vendors: TP-Link.
