摘要：

We describe possible denial of service attacks to access points in infrastructure wireless networks using the 802.11b protocol. To carry out such attacks, only commodity hardware and software components are required. The experimental results obtained on a large set of different access points show that serious vulnerabilities exist in any device we tested and that a single malicious station can easily hinder any legitimate communication within a basic service set.
