Description

A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability was identified in TP-Link Tapo C520WS v2.6 within the asynchronous parsing of local video stream content due to<br /> insufficient alignment and validation of buffer boundaries when processing streaming inputs.An attacker<br /> on the same network segment could trigger heap memory corruption conditions by<br /> sending crafted payloads that cause write operations beyond allocated buffer<br /> boundaries.  Successful exploitation<br /> causes a Denial-of-Service (DoS) condition, causing the device’s process to<br /> crash or become unresponsive.
