The vulnerability of the EAP-PWD protocol for certifying wireless communication devices arises from the use of cryptographic algorithms that contain defects. This allows attackers to install and run applications or gain access to confidential data.

The vulnerability of the EAP-PWD protocol for certifying wireless communication devices with WPA is related to templates in memory that are accessible from the general cache. Exploiting this vulnerability allows a remote attacker to install and run the application, as well as compromise the...
