Impacted Vendors Release Advisories for FragAttacks Vulnerabilities
2021-05-14 15:08

Impacted vendors have released security advisories in response to the recently disclosed Wi-Fi vulnerabilities collectively tracked as FragAttacks.

A dozen CVE identifiers have been assigned to the FragAttacks flaws discovered last year by researcher Mathy Vanhoef, including three for design flaws and nine for implementation flaws.

Some of the affected vendors have been notified and given 9 months to release patches.

Shortly after Vanhoef made his findings public, more than a dozen vendors released advisories, and some organizations, such as the Wi-Fi Alliance, have released statements on FragAttacks.

Some vendors say their products are affected only by the design flaws, but others appear to be impacted by multiple CVEs.

A majority of vendors have assigned the flaws a moderate/medium severity rating.
