Oracle Linux: CVE-2017-13088: ELSA-2017-2907: wpa_supplicant security update (IMPORTANT)
Description
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA and WPA2) that support 802.11v allows reinstallation of the Integrity Group Temporal Key (IGTK) when processing a Wireless Network Management (WNM) Sleep Mode Response frame, allowing an attacker within radio range to replay frames from access points to clients. A new exploitation technique called key reinstallation attacks (KRACK) affecting WPA2 has been discovered. A remote attacker within Wi-Fi range could exploit this attack to decrypt Wi-Fi traffic or possibly inject forged Wi-Fi packets by reinstalling a previously used integrity group key (IGTK) during a Wireless Network Management (WNM) Sleep Mode handshake.
