The Metasploit Project plans to add 802.11 (Wi-Fi) exploits to a new
version of its point-and-click attack tool, a move that simplifies the
way wireless drivers and devices are exploited.

The controversial open-source project, created and maintained by HD
Moore, of Austin, Texas, has added a new exploit class that allows
modules to send raw 802.11 frames at one of the most vulnerable parts
of the operating system.
