CVE-2026-0834 | Logic Vulnerability on TP-Link Archer C20, Archer AX53 and TL-WR841N v13

Logic vulnerability in TP-Link Archer C20 v5, 6.0, Archer AX53 v1.0 and TL-WR841N v13 (TDDP module) allows unauthenticated adjacent attackers to execute administrative commands including factory reset and device reboot without credentials. Attackers on the adjacent network can remotely trigger factory resets and reboots without credentials, causing configuration loss and interruption of device availability.This issue affects Archer C20 v6.0 < V6_251031, Archer C20 v5 <EU_V5_260317 or < US_V5_260419 Archer AX53 v1.0 < V1_251215 TL-WR841N v13 < 0.9.1 Build 20231120 Rel.62366

8.8 3.1 HIGH
CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H Click to expand
Attack vector (AV:A)
Attacker has to be nearby on the network—same office, same link, that vibe—not the whole wide internet.
Attack complexity (AC:L)
Once they can reach the bug, pulling it off is straightforward—no weird race conditions or rare setup.
Privileges required (PR:N)
No account or special rights needed—anonymous or random user is enough.
User interaction (UI:N)
Nobody has to click “OK” or open a trap file; it can work without a victim helping.
Scope (S:U)
Damage stays in the same “trust bubble” as the broken component—no big spill into unrelated systems.
Confidentiality (C:H)
Serious risk that confidential data gets exposed in a big way.
Integrity (I:H)
They could widely tamper with or forge data—trust in the data is badly hurt.
Availability (A:H)
Could take the service down hard or make it unusable for people who depend on it.
