TP-Link Tapo Camera Flaw Lets Attackers Gain Admin Access Without Password

Two flaws in TP-Link Tapo C200 cameras allow network-adjacent admin access without a password (CVE-2026-15315) or DoS (CVE-2026-15316); fixed in V5_1.4.6.

OPSWAT Unit 515 researchers discovered CVE-2026-15315, an authentication bypass in the Tapo C200's local HTTPS management interface on port 443, where an alternative verification path accepts a replayed device-generated value, letting unauthenticated network-adjacent attackers establish admin sessions. CVE-2026-15316 causes a denial-of-service crash in the camera's HTTPS service via oversized encrypted Wi-Fi credential data during onboarding. TP-Link confirmed both issues after the April 16, 2026 report and released firmware V5_1.4.6 on August 18, 2026. OPSWAT says additional potentially critical findings remain under coordinated disclosure.

BambooToken: The Malware That Speaks MQTT to Stay Under the Radar

Lumen's Black Lotus Labs uncovered BambooToken, a Windows and Linux malware family using MQTT broker-based C2 and DLL sideloading across Asia since February 2023.

Lumen Black Lotus Labs identified BambooToken, a multiplatform malware family that exchanges commands through MQTT brokers so infected hosts never contact the C2 server directly, active from at least February 2023 through July 2026. The Windows variant sideloads via Tendyron's OnKey hardware-token software used in Chinese banking and government, or impersonates Kingsoft Office, without either vendor's signing certificate being compromised; a Linux build appeared by December 2025 with shell, file transfer, and system information commands. Victims include MikroTik and DrayTek routers in Singapore, Cambodia, and Vietnam reached after internet-wide SNMP scanning, and Lumen cannot attribute the family to any known actor.
