If you are using the bwfm(4) #wifi driver on #OpenBSD, consider updating to -current soon, which just received some fixes for a crafted wifi frame injection issue where according the report "memcpy() then attempts to copy 0xfffffff0 bytes into a fresh mbuf cluster. [...] With datalen 0xfffffff0 and no received payload, the unpatched kernel [...] reset immediately to the boot loader". Which sounds wild, but this reproducer injected fake ethernet frames into the driver via software hacks, and I don't have the patience to verify these claims with real hardware. And of course, a PCI device has DMA access which means it can change kernel memory arbitrarily anyway unless the system has an iommu, which AFAIK OpenBSD does not use yet, at least not on amd64. Not sure yet if there will be errata. The Linux driver has some of the same bugs.

Hmmm, the #TSB app takes multiple minutes to load when I'm on my home #wifi, but on the mobile network, it takes seconds... Seems fishy, my gut feeling is there's a heapload of tracking attempting to load before the actual log-in and fetch data actions are taken.

Every fatal firmware error fix depends on one guy on an IRC channel voluntarily and supportively looking up magic fimware error codes and explaining the implications to me. Bus factor: 1 And for some vendors like Qualcomm there is simply nobody to ask questions to. The Linux ath10k/11k/12k driver maintainer stopped years ago and hasn't been replaced as far as I know. Vendors should never have been allowed to stop providing public documentation for computers they are selling. #OpenBSD #wifi

BSSID Collection: How Banks Map Your Home WiFi

BSSID Collection: How Banks Map Your Home WiFi. In 2024, a financial institution in the United Kingdom blocked the account of a legitimate customer who had traveled from London to Manchester for a weekend. The system flagged the transaction not because the card was stolen, but because the device's network signature indicated a location shift that did not match the user's historical profile. This incident highlights a critical shift in digital identity verification: the industry has moved beyond

Alert. Masowo hackują sieci WiFi w hotelach / kawiarniach / na konferencjach na całym świecie. Cel: podróżujący pracownicy korporacji. O akcji ostrzega Microsoft, pisząc: zidentyfikowaliśmy w kilku krajach powszechne naruszenia bezpieczeństwa sieci WiFi w organizacjach z branży hotelarsko-gastronomicznej oraz w innych sieciach obsługiwanych przez urządzenia wspierające captive portal.Najpierw przejmowane są routerki dające dostęp do sieci WiFi. Umówmy się, często jedynym zabezpieczeniem w hotelu jest nieaktualizowany od 5 lat TP-Link... #Aktualności #Apt #Cyberawareness #Hotele #Rosja #Wifi

@oplatzunited@mastodon.social das mit dem Wifi haut mich um, echt traurig. Ich hab dazu mal ne Frage: Wenn man es kündigen muss, liegt da dann nicht ein Vertrag zugrunde? #Lübeck #Wifi

I accidentally came across this #MediaTek #MT7601U #WiFi driver for #NetBSD on GitHub: https://github.com/MakwanaVihas/gsoc_2k22 but it seems long abandoned. I wonder if someone knows how to use it. I actually have such a USB WiFi dodge, and since the #iwm driver works on and off for my Intel 8260 card on NetBSD I think I can give this a try maybe. #RunBSD #BSD #Unix

Aconteceu tanta coisa recente relacionada à FujiNET que a gente vai ter que ter mais um garbage collector só dela. Tivemos um recentemente, mas é pouco, vamos ter mais. A FujiNET é um dispositivo de hardware de código aberto multifuncional projetado para micros clássicos, onde ele combina as funções de um emulador de múltiplos periféricos

Your hotel Wi-Fi may be legit, but the gateway behind it might not be. Hackers are compromising hotel and conference Wi-Fi gateways to redirect business travelers and employees to fake Microsoft 365 login pages, stealing credentials and authorization tokens.

It's #backupfriday and I just collected a package with some 10 Gb network gear - it is a bit early as the installers only finished the cable trays in the building this week, and there is still some digging to be done until the building is fiber-connected, and after that my apartment has to be connected as well... Unfortunately the access point I ordered is advertised as having at 10 Gb ethernet port, but on the box it says it only has 2.5 Gb, so I'll likely have to return it. If you have any recommendations for #wifi accesspoints that have #10 GbE, I'm all ears. Do I need my local network to be 10 Gb ethernet when I am upgrading from the venerable copper connection, currently yielding at whopping 40 Mb down and 10 Mb up, to fiber? You're right, I don't. But since one of the ISPs is advertising 5 Gb over the fiber and as I am upgrading (/able to upgrade) for the first time in 10-15 years, why not try how the maximum speed feels? I don't want the LAN to be the bottleneck, so 10 Gb it is.
