Description
TP-Link Tapo
C325WB V2 contains an unauthenticated authorization bypass vulnerability in the
HTTPS JSON API dispatcher on TCP port 443. An attacker on the adjacent network
can append an onboarding-scoped object to a JSON request to bypass session
verification and invoke privileged actions without authentication. 





Successful
exploitation may allow an unauthenticated adjacent-network attacker to access
live video and audio, modify device settings, and obtain sensitive device
information or secrets.

AI Analysis

Impact

TP‑Link Tapo C325WB v2 includes a flaw in the HTTPS JSON API dispatcher that allows an unauthenticated attacker on the adjacent network to append an onboarding‑scoped object to a JSON request, thus bypassing session verification and invoking privileged actions. The result is that the attacker can access and stream live video and audio, alter device settings, and retrieve sensitive device information or secrets. This vulnerability effectively grants full control over the device without requiring any valid credentials.

Affected Systems

The affected product is TP‑Link Tapo C325WB v2. No other vendors, products, or versions are listed as impacted.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 8.7 indicates a high severity. The EPSS score is not available, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. The likely attack vector is an adjacent‑network attacker sending HTTPS JSON requests to the device on TCP port 443. With access to the local network and no authentication, exploitation is straightforward and could lead to complete device takeover.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Download and install the latest firmware for the Tapo C325WB from TP‑Link’s official website.
  • Configure network segmentation or firewall rules to prevent devices on the adjacent network from reaching the Tapo C325WB on TCP port 443.
  • If a firmware update is not immediately available, restrict access to the device’s HTTPS API from untrusted networks by blocking or filtering traffic to port 443 on the device’s IP address.
