Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2008:007
http://www.mandriva.com/security/
_______________________________________________________________________
Package : madwifi-source
Date : January 10, 2008
Affected: 2007.0, 2007.1, 2008.0
_______________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
MadWifi prior to 0.9.3.3 allowed remote attackers to cause a denial
of service (panic) via a beacon frame with a large length value in
the extended supported rates (xrates) element, which would trigger
an assertion error.
Updated packages have been updated to 0.9.3.3 to correct this
issue. Wpa_supplicant is built using madwifi-source and has been
rebuilt using 0.9.3.3 source.
