EUVD-2026-63543

No EUVD known-exploited evidence

An unauthenticated attacker with network access to the captive portal service of an affected device can terminate active captive portal sessions, including forcing logout of specific users or clearing all active sessions. Affected users must re-authenticate to regain access.  Successful exploitation may allow termination of individual or all active captive portal sessions, causing temporary service disruption and requiring users to re-authenticate.

01

What, why and how

An unauthenticated attacker with network access to the captive portal service of an affected device can terminate active captive portal sessions, including forcing logout of specific users or clearing all active sessions. Affected users must re-authenticate to regain access.  Successful exploitation may allow termination of individual or all active captive portal sessions, causing temporary service disruption and requiring users to re-authenticate.

What

An unauthenticated attacker with network access to the captive portal service of an affected device can terminate active captive portal sessions, including forcing logout of specific users or clearing all active sessions. Affected users must re-authenticate to regain access.  Successful exploitation may allow termination of individual or all active captive portal sessions, causing temporary service disruption and requiring users to re-authenticate.

Why

A security-sensitive function is reachable without the authentication check that should protect it.

How

An attacker operating through an adjacent network may attempt exploitation without authentication or user interaction. If successful, the issue may cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor.

Exploit reality and attack path

CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.

Observed exploitation
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
No confirmed evidence

No CISA KEV match was present at the last successful refresh. This means no confirmation from that source, not proof of no exploitation.

Public PoC / exploit material
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
None recorded

No exploit-tagged reference or CISA SSVC proof-of-concept state is currently recorded. Research may still exist outside the structured feeds.

Likely attack path
an adjacent network → Missing Authentication for Critical Function → cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor

Adjacent
Privileges required
None: unauthenticated exploitation is possible

Weakness
?CWE means Common Weakness Enumeration: a standard category for the underlying weakness.
CWE-306 ↗

CWE-306: Missing Authentication for Critical Function. The product does not perform any authentication for functionality that requires a provable user identity or consumes a significant amount of resources.

Official advisory
INCIBE-CERT · Spanish · multiples-vulnerabilidades-en-gateways-omadaMúltiples vulnerabilidades en Gateways Omada

Omada, de TP-Link, ha informado sobre 3 vulnerabilidades: 1 de severidad crítica y 2 medias que, en caso de ser explotadas, podrían permitir la ejecución de comandos arbitrarios, lo que potencialmente podría comprometer por completo el dispositivo afectado, la terminación de sesiones individuales o de todas las sesiones activas del portal cautivo, lo que provoca una interrupción temporal del servicio y obliga a los usuarios a volver a autenticarse, o la divulgación de las credenciales de la cuenta DDNS, el acceso no autorizado a la funcionalidad de administración de DDNS o la modificación de los registros DNS asociados con la implementación afectada.
