Tapo C325WB v2: Use of Insufficiently Random Values
CVE-2026-105674 is a high-severity use of insufficiently random values vulnerability in Tapo C325WB v2 from TP-Link, with a CVSS 4.0 base score of 8.7 out of 10. It can be exploited from the same local network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. The record lists version V2_1.3.3 Build 260914 as the first without the flaw, so updating Tapo C325WB v2 to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.27% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.
High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.
What to do
- Update Tapo C325WB v2 to V2_1.3.3 Build 260914 or a later version.

Official description
TP-Link Tapo C325WB V2 generates the pre-shared key used by its local media streaming service with a time-seeded pseudo-random number generator, making the key predictable and recoverable. An unauthenticated attacker on the adjacent network can recover the key and authenticate to the media streaming service without valid user credentials. Successful exploitation may allow an unauthenticated adjacent-network attacker to access and take over live video and audio streams, compromising the confidentiality and integrity of camera media.

The underlying weakness: Use of Insufficiently Random Values
The product uses insufficiently random numbers or values in a security context that depends on unpredictable numbers.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- Use a well-vetted algorithm that is currently considered to be strong by experts in the field, and select well-tested implementations with adequate length seeds. In general, if a pseudo-random number generator is not advertised as being cryptographically secure, then it is probably a statistical PRNG and should not be used in security-sensitive contexts. Pseudo-random number generators can produce predictable numbers if the generator is known and the seed can be guessed. A 256-bit seed is a good starting point for producing a random enough number.
- Consider a PRNG that re-seeds itself as needed from high quality pseudo-random output sources, such as hardware devices.
- Use products or modules that conform to FIPS 140-2 to avoid obvious entropy problems. Consult FIPS 140-2 Annex C (Approved Random Number Generators).
