摘要
The Hole 196 vulnerability allows malicious insiders to inject spoofed broadcast/multicast frames encrypted with group transient key in the Wi-Fi Protected Access II (WPA2) enabled Wi-Fi networks. In this letter, we propose a novel insider attack-Advanced Stealth Man-in-The-Middle (ASMiTM) that combines Stealth Man-in-The-Middle (SMiTM) and Wireless Denial of Service (WDoS) attacks, both of which occur due to the Hole 196 vulnerability. ASMiTM attack results in an increased duration of attack life, tougher detection, and improved stealthiness as compared to individual SMiTM and WDoS attacks.
