An eavesdropper doesn't have to be logged into the target device's wireless network to exploit KrØØk. If successful, the miscreant can take repeated snapshots of the device's wireless traffic as if it were on an open and insecure Wi-Fi. These snapshots may contain things like URLs of requested websites, personal information in transit, and so on. When these disassociation packets are received, vulnerable Wi-Fi controllers - made by Broadcom and Cypress, and used in countless computers and gadgets - will overwrite the shared encryption key with the value zero.
