🛜 "W skrócie: 25 lutego 2026 r. naukowcy z Uniwersytetu Kalifornijskiego w Riverside i Uniwersytetu Katolickiego w Leuven zaprezentowali narzędzie AirSnitch podczas sympozjum NDSS w San Diego. Jest to zestaw narzędzi do ataków, które omijają „izolację klienta” — funkcję Wi-Fi, która ma zapobiegać wzajemnym atakom użytkowników w tej samej sieci. Przetestowano 11 routerów firm Cisco, Netgear, D-Link, ASUS, TP-Link, Ubiquiti, Tenda i LANCOM, a także oprogramowanie open source DD-WRT i OpenWrt. Każdy z nich był podatny na co najmniej jeden atak. WPA2, WPA3, sieci korporacyjne z indywidualnymi loginami — nic z tego nie miało znaczenia. Jeśli osoba atakująca połączy się z tą samą siecią Wi-Fi co Ty, może przechwycić Twój ruch, odczytać Twoje dane i przeprowadzić ataki typu „man-in-the-middle”. Rozwiązaniem nie jest poprawka oprogramowania sprzętowego. Jest to problem architektoniczny, który wymaga zmian w samym standardzie IEEE 802.11."

#infosec #wifi #attack #airsnitch
Исследователи из Калифорнийского университета в Риверсайде разработали новый класс атак на беспроводные сети - AirSnitch.
https://www.ndss-symposium.org/wp-content/uploads/2026-f1282-paper.pdf
Атаки дают возможность обойти механизмы изоляции клиентов в Wi-Fi сети, не позволяющие клиентам напрямую обращаться друг к другу. При наихудшем сценарии атаки позволяют злоумышленнику перенаправить через себя трафик жертвы (MITM) для анализа или модификации незашифрованных запросов, а также подменить обращения к сайтам через отравление DNS-кэша.
Проблемы, позволяющие совершить атаку:
-- Обход изоляции между клиентами из-за некорректного управления ключами, используемыми для защиты широковещательных кадров.
-- Изоляция обычно применяется на уровне MAC или на уровне IP, но не на обоих уровнях одновременно.
-- Ненадёжная синхронизация идентификаторов клиентов на уровне всего сетевого стека -> перехват входящего и исходящего трафика других клиентов. -

So … #AirSnitch is just hot air?
Actionable thing for anyone: Don't bridge trusted/untrusted networks (if you don't know whether your router properly separates both networks, run).And going forward, don't assume public (password protected) hotspots are safe for unencrypted connections - which they never were, because the entire internet is not safe for unencrypted connections.

"New research shows that behaviors that occur at the very lowest levels of the network stack make encryption—in any form, not just those that have been broken in the past—incapable of providing client isolation, an encryption-enabled protection promised by all router makers, that is intended to block direct communication between two or more connected clients.
The isolation can effectively be nullified through AirSnitch, the name the researchers gave to a series of attacks that capitalize on the newly discovered weaknesses. Various forms of AirSnitch work across a broad range of routers, including those from Netgear, D-Link, Ubiquiti, Cisco, and those running DD-WRT and OpenWrt.
AirSnitch “breaks worldwide Wi-Fi encryption, and it might have the potential to enable advanced cyberattacks,” Xin’an Zhou, the lead author of the research paper, said in an interview. “Advanced attacks can build on our primitives to [perform] cookie stealing, DNS and cache poisoning. Our research physically wiretaps the wire altogether so these sophisticated attacks will work. It’s really a threat to worldwide network security.” Zhou presented his research on Wednesday at the 2026 Network and Distributed System Security Symposium.
Paper co-author Mathy Vanhoef, said a few hours after this post went live that the attack may be better described as a Wi-Fi encryption “bypass,” “in the sense that we can bypass client isolation. We don’t break Wi-Fi authentication or encryption. Crypto is often bypassed instead of broken. And we bypass it ;)” People who don’t rely on client or network isolation, he added, are safe."

New #AirSnitch attack breaks Wi-Fi #encryption in homes, offices, and enterprises
It’s hard to overstate the role that Wi-Fi plays in virtually every facet of life. The organization that shepherds the #wireless protocol says that more than 48 billion Wi-Fi-enabled devices have shipped since it debuted in the late 1990s. One estimate pegs the number of individual users at 6 billion, roughly 70 percent of the world’s population.

Oh, I'm curious. #AirSnitch breaks #WiFi encryption. From the paper:In summary, we make the following contributions.
- We introduce novel MitM primitives that break client isolation, which was commonly believed to protect Wi-Fi clients from one another, enabling MitM attacks relating to both uplink and downlink traffic.
- We show that Wi-Fi client isolation in single-BSSID networks (e.g., home networks) is fundamentally broken for all WPA versions.
- We extend our bypasses to multi-AP and multi-SSID networks, common in enterprises, analyze their root cause, and sometimes even leak traffic in plaintext.
- We show that our attacks can also intercept traffic of internal wired devices, allowing higher-layer attacks previously thought impractical, which we illustrate by breaking weak back-end RADIUS passwords.
- We evaluate our attacks on various devices and networks including two real university networks, discuss defenses, and open-source our code for reproducibility of our tests.
