Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-03-04 16:07 – Updated: 2026-03-04 17:59
VLAI?
Title
Frame Injection via Shared GTK Allows Traffic Spoofing and Client Compromise
Summary
A vulnerability has been identified in the wireless encryption handling of Wi-Fi transmissions. A malicious actor can generate shared-key authenticated transmissions containing targeted payloads while impersonating the identity of a primary BSSID.Successful exploitation allows for the delivery of tampered data to specific endpoints, bypassing standard cryptographic separation.
Severity ?
