TP-Link IP Cameras, including models TL-SC3130, TL-SC3130G, TL-SC3171, and TL-SC3171G, are affected by a serious security vulnerability due to an empty password for the hardcoded 'qmik' account.

Users are urged to secure their devices and ensure appropriate configurations are in place to mitigate the risk.
