[Monitoring] Summary FragAttacks (fragmentation and aggregation attacks) affecting Wi-Fi devices worldwide have been discovered. If exploited, these vulnerabilities could result in data exfiltration. Some networking vendors are starting to provide patches. Details • Vulnerabilities in the frame aggregation functionality of some Wi-Fi devices have been discovered. There is no evidence that the vulnerabilities are being used against Wi-Fi users maliciously at the University of Utah or elsewhere, and issues are mitigated through routine device updates that enable detection of suspect transmissions or improve security. • The vulnerability is directed at all modern security protocols of Wi-Fi, including the latest WPA3 specification and original security protocol of Wi-Fi, called WEP. Impact The university’s Information Security Office (ISO) is aware of the issue and is closely monitoring developments. The ISO requests that users install the latest updates for Wi-Fi-connected devices — including routers, IoT devices, and smartphones — as recommended by manufacturers.
