Description

On TP-Link Tapo C260 v1, path traversal is possible due to improper handling of specific GET request paths via https, allowing local unauthenticated probing of filesystem paths. An attacker on the local network can determine whether certain files exists on the device, with no read, write or code execution possibilities.
