Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2019-09-04 12:15 - Updated: 2026-06-17 02:14
Severity
6.5 (Medium) - CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Summary
The client 802.11 mac implementation in Espressif ESP8266_NONOS_SDK 2.2.0 through 3.1.0 does not validate correctly the RSN AuthKey suite list count in beacon frames, probe responses, and association responses, which allows attackers in radio range to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted message.
