Security Flaws in TP-Link Omada Devices Could Let Hackers Break Into Your Network

TP-Link has fixed security weaknesses in its Omada Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) system that could allow hackers to remotely take control of networks. This matters because Omada devices are commonly used to manage business Wi-Fi and network settings, so unpatched devices could be at risk.
