The ubiquitous Wi-Fi standard has at least three design flaws that allow a local attacker to intercept and exfiltrate wireless traffic, while additional implementation flaws enable more serious attacks for some wireless traffic, a well-known security researcher revealed this week. The design flaws in the IEEE 802.11 standard — more commonly known as Wi-Fi —…
