SANS had a nice writeup on it as well: http://isc.sans.org/diary.html?storyid=7027 The basic gist of the situation: WPA with TKIP is broken. Throw it on the scrapheap with WEP and DVD-CSS. On the up side, the WPA2 crypto scheme using AES instead of TKIP is still perfectly viable. --Matt -- Matt Gracie (716) 888-8378 Information Security Administrator graciem () canisius edu Canisius College ITS Buffalo, NY http://www2.canisius.edu/~graciem/graciem_public_key.gpg
