IMPACT:
DoS

WHERE:
>From local network

OPERATING SYSTEM:
Netgear WN802T Wireless Access Point
http://secunia.com/product/19749/

DESCRIPTION:
Laurent Butti and Julien Tinnes have reported some vulnerabilities in
Netgear WN802T Wireless Access Point, which can be exploited by
malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).

1) An error exists in the processing of SSID information included in
association requests. This can be exploited to reboot or hang-up the
device by sending a specially crafted association request.

2) An error in the processing of EAPoL-Key packets can be exploited
to reboot or hang-up a device by sending a specially crafted
EAPoL-Key packet containing an overly large "length" value.

The vulnerabilities are reported in firmware version 1.3.16. Other
versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Use the device only in a trusted network environment.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
