Can I use MAC whitelisting to mitigate the attack?
- eptcyka 9y agoMACs are easily spoofed.
- makomk 9y agoNot really. As far as I can tell, the attack basically requires spoofed MACs anyway because the keys are derived in part from the MACs, so whitelisting won't get you much benefit if any at all.
- d15b0ff178b085c 9y agoNope, This will fool your client (eg: your phone) to connect to it, before it reaches your access point, then forward packets to your AP (basic man in the middle). On the other hand, I am wondering if it manages to correctly forward packages back to the AP if that has MAC filtering on...
- billpg 9y agoNo. You can't even use MAC white-listing to prevent unauthorized devices from connecting to your access point.
- Tepix 9y agoOnly against an incompetent fool.
