<background>
<p>wpa_supplicant is a WPA Supplicant with support for WPA and WPA2 (IEEE
802.11i / RSN). hostapd is a user space daemon for access point and
authentication servers.
</p>
</background>
<description>
<p>WiFi Protected Access (WPA and WPA2) and its associated technologies
are all vulnerable to the KRACK attacks. Please review the referenced CVE
identifiers for details.
</p>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>An attacker can carry out the KRACK attacks on a wireless network in
order to gain access to network clients. Once achieved, the attacker can
potentially harvest confidential information (e.g. HTTP/HTTPS), inject
malware, or perform a myriad of other attacks.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>All hostapd users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-wireless/hostapd-2.6-r1"
</code>
<p>All wpa_supplicant users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose
"&gt;=net-wireless/wpa_supplicant-2.6-r3"
</code>
