An attacker within range of the Access Point and client can abuse the vulnerability to recover sensitive information.

MEDIUM 6.5EPSS 1.48%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.48%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

An issue was discovered in rsn_supp/wpa.c in wpa_supplicant 2.0 through 2.6. Under certain conditions, the integrity of EAPOL-Key messages is not checked, leading to a decryption oracle. An attacker within range of the Access Point and client can abuse the vulnerability to recover sensitive information.
