Per WiFi frame-injection guidance this is Adjacent.\nAC:L - The attacker fully controls the beacon\u0027s BSSID/MLD address and SSID, and the victim STA\u0027s MAC address is passively observable from its probe requests; the victim\u0027s connection attempt is routine auto-join behavior that the attacker can force by deauthing it from its real AP.\nPR:N - A rogue AP needs no credentials or prior association with the victim, and the failure occurs in the pre-authentication auth/assoc path before any key exchange.\nUI:N - Automatic reconnection to a known/matching SSID by wpa_supplicant or the kernel SME requires no human action, and the attacker can trigger it on demand with a deauth.\nS:U - The WARN_ON and the corrupted MLME state are entirely within the kernel\u0027s own security authority; no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:N - No out-of-bounds read, uninitialized memory disclosure, or other read primitive is created; the attacker gains no access to kernel or user data.\nI:L - The attacker\u0027s rogue BSS causes mac80211 to tear down the legitimate association and leaves inconsistent state behind (`vif.cfg.ap_addr` set to the interface\u0027s own address, and in the MLO case a link_sta bearing our own address inserted into `local-\u003elink_sta_hash`), a bounded modification of kernel connection state rather than arbitrary write.\nA:H - The path reaches `WARN_ON()` in `sta_info_insert_check()`, which is a kernel panic on the many deployments running `panic_on_warn=1`, and can be triggered repeatedly to persistently deny WiFi connectivity."

Detection rules are retrieved from Rulezet.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
