CVE-2026-12760

Service interruption via malformed IPv4 fragments

Published Jun 24, 2026 · Updated Jun 24, 2026

Denial of service in TP-Link Tapo C200 v3 before 1.4.4 Build 250922 allows remote attackers on the same network to interrupt camera service. The network packet handler accepts crafted IPv4 fragments without limiting resource consumption, exhausting device resources until the camera becomes unresponsive. No authentication or user interaction is required, but the attacker must be adjacent; the temporary outage causes intermittent loss of video monitoring and recording.
