tl-wr841n firmware vulnerability (CVE-2026-5039)
MEDIUM
watchNVDCVE-2026-5039
TP-Link TL-WR841N v13 uses DES-CBC encryption in the TDDPv2 debug protocol with a cryptographic key derived from default web management credentials, making the key predictable if device is left in default configuration. A network-adjacent attacker can exploit this weakness to gain unauthorized access to the protocol, read debug data, modify certain device configuration values, and trigger device reboot, resulting in loss of integrity and a denial-of-service condition.
Inadequate Encryption Strength vulnerability in TP-Link Archer C7 v5 and v5.8 (uhttpd modules) allows Password Recovery Exploitation. The web interface encrypts the admin password client-side using RSA-1024 before sending it to the router during login.
An adjacent attacker with the ability to intercept network traffic could potentially perform a brute-force or factorization attack against the 1024-bit RSA key to recover the plaintext administrator password, leading to unauthorized access and compromise of the device configuration. This issue affects Archer C7: through Build 20220715.
An OS command injection vulnerability in the dnsmasq module of TP-Link Archer AX53 v1.0 allows an authenticated adjacent attacker to execute arbitrary code when a specially crafted configuration file is processed due to insufficient input validation. Successful exploitation may allow the attacker to modify device configuration, access sensitive information, or further compromise system integrity.
This issue affects AX53 v1.0: before 1.7.1 Build 20260213.
An OS command injection vulnerability in the OpenVPN module
of TP-Link Archer AX53 v1.0 allows an authenticated adjacent attacker to execute system commands when a specially crafted configuration file is processed due to insufficient input validation. Successful exploitation may allow modification of configuration files, disclosure of sensitive information, or further compromise of device integrity.
This issue affects AX53 v1.0: before 1.7.1 Build 20260213.
A stack-based buffer overflow in the tmpServer module of TP-Link Archer AX53 v1.0 allows an authenticated adjacent attacker to trigger a segmentation fault and potentially execute arbitrary code via a specially crafted configuration file. Successful exploitation may cause a crash and could allow arbitrary code execution, enabling modification of device state, exposure of sensitive data, or further compromise of device integrity.
This issue affects AX53 v1.0: before 1.7.1 Build 20260213.
This vulnerability in AX53 v1 results from insufficient input sanitization in the device’s probe handling logic, where unvalidated parameters can trigger a stack-based buffer overflow that causes the affected service to crash and, under specific conditions, may enable remote code execution through complex heap-spray techniques.
Successful exploitation may result in repeated service unavailability and, in certain scenarios, allow an attacker to gain control of the device.
A command injection vulnerability on AX53 v1 occurs in mscd debug functionality due to insufficient input handling, allowing log redirection to arbitrary files and concatenation of unvalidated file content into shell commands, enabling authenticated attackers to inject and execute arbitrary commands. Successful exploitation may allow execution of malicious commands and ultimately full control of the device.
The web interface on multiple Omada switches does not adequately validate certain external inputs, which may lead to out-of-bound memory access when processing crafted requests. Under specific conditions, this flaw may result in unintended command execution.<br>An unauthenticated attacker with network access to the affected interface may cause memory corruption, service instability, or information disclosure. Successful exploitation may allow remote code execution or denial-of-service.
A command injection vulnerability was identified in the web module of Archer AXE75 v1.6/v1.0 router. An authenticated attacker with adjacent-network access may be able to perform remote code execution (RCE) when the router is configured with sysmode=ap. Successful exploitation results in root-level privileges and impacts confidentiality, integrity and availability of the device.
This issue affects Archer AXE75 v1.6/v1.0: through 1.3.2 Build 20250107.
The HTTP parser of Tapo C210 v3, C220 v1 and C520WS v2 cameras improperly handles requests containing an excessively long URL path. An invalid‑URL error path continues into cleanup code that assumes allocated buffers exist, leading to a crash and service restart. An unauthenticated attacker can force repeated service crashes or device reboots, causing denial of service.
The Tapo C100 v5, C220 v1 and C520WS v2 cameras’ HTTP service does not safely handle POST requests containing an excessively large Content-Length header. The resulting failed memory allocation triggers a NULL pointer dereference, causing the main service process to crash. An unauthenticated attacker can repeatedly crash the service, causing temporary denial of service. The device restarts automatically, and repeated requests can keep it unavailable.

activeCISA KEVCVE-2020-24363
TP-link TL-WA855RE contains a missing authentication for critical function vulnerability. This vulnerability could allow an unauthenticated attacker (on the same network) to submit a TDDP_RESET POST request for a factory reset and reboot. The attacker can then obtain incorrect access control by setting a new administrative password. The impacted products could be end-of-life (EoL) and/or end-of-service (EoS). Users should discontinue product utilization.
