Description
TP-Link IP Cameras TL-SC3130, TL-SC3130G, TL-SC3171, TL-SC3171G, and possibly other models before beta firmware LM.1.6.18P12_sign6 have an empty password for the hardcoded "qmik" account, which allows remote attackers to obtain administrative access via a TELNET session.
Exploitation
Not listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalogue as of 2026.09.04. That is an absence of confirmed public exploitation, not evidence that exploitation has not occurred. EPSS models a 3.7% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days.
