Descriptions

An issue was discovered in the ALFA Windows 10 driver 1030.36.604 for AWUS036ACH. The WEP, WPA, WPA2, and WPA3 implementations accept fragmented plaintext frames in a protected Wi-Fi network. An adversary can abuse this to inject arbitrary data frames independent of the network configuration.

Se detectó un problema en el controlador ALFA Windows 10 versión 1030.36.604 para AWUS036ACH. Las implementaciones WEP, WPA, WPA2 y WPA3 aceptan tramas de texto plano fragmentados en una red Wi-Fi protegida. Un adversario puede abusar de esto para inyectar tramas de datos arbitrarias independientes de la configuración de la red

A vulnerability was found in Linux kernel, where the WiFi implementations assemble fragments even though some of them were sent in plaintext. This vulnerability can be abused to inject packets and/or exfiltrate selected fragments when another device sends fragmented frames and the WEP, CCMP, or GCMP data-confidentiality protocol is used.
