TITLE

Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) handshake traffic can be manipulated to induce nonce and session key reuse

DESCRIPTION

Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA and WPA2) allows reinstallation of the Group Temporal Key (GTK) during the four-way handshake, allowing an attacker within radio range to replay frames from access points to clients. An attacker within range of an affected AP and client may leverage these vulnerabilities to conduct attacks that are dependent on the data confidentiality protocols being used. Attacks may include arbitrary packet decryption and injection, TCP connection hijacking, HTTP content injection, or the replay of unicast and group-addressed frames. These vulnerabilities are referred to as Key Reinstallation Attacks or "KRACK" attacks. WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) is a system that protects wireless computer networks (Wi-Fi). The WPA2 wireless network has a GTK group key reload vulnerability in the fourth handshake. WPA2 is prone to multiple security weaknesses. Exploiting these issues may allow an unauthorized user to intercept and manipulate data or disclose sensitive information. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ===================================================================== Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Important: wpa_supplicant security update Advisory ID: RHSA-2017:2907-01 Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Advisory URL: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017:2907 Issue date: 2017-10-17 CVE Names: CVE-2017-13077 CVE-2017-13078 CVE-2017-13080 CVE-2017-13082 CVE-2017-13086 CVE-2017-13087 CVE-2017-13088 ===================================================================== 1. Summary: An update for wpa_supplicant is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Client (v. 7) - x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ComputeNode (v. 7) - x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (v. 7) - aarch64, ppc64, ppc64le, s390x, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation (v. 7) - x86_64 3. Description: The wpa_supplicant packages contain an 802.1X Supplicant with support for WEP, WPA, WPA2 (IEEE 802.11i / RSN), and various EAP authentication methods. They implement key negotiation with a WPA Authenticator for client stations and controls the roaming and IEEE 802.11 authentication and association of the WLAN driver. A remote attacker within Wi-Fi range could exploit these attacks to decrypt Wi-Fi traffic or possibly inject forged Wi-Fi packets by manipulating cryptographic handshakes used by the WPA2 protocol.

Revision history v1.0 2017-10-17 Initial release. v1.1 2017-10-19 Add patches for 10.x releases. I. hostapd and wpa_supplicant are implementations of user space daemon for access points and wireless client that implements the WPA2 protocol. II. Problem Description A vulnerability was found in how a number of implementations can be triggered to reconfigure WPA/WPA2/RSN keys (TK, GTK, or IGTK) by replaying a specific frame that is used to manage the keys. III. Impact Such reinstallation of the encryption key can result in two different types of vulnerabilities: disabling replay protection and significantly reducing the security of encryption to the point of allowing frames to be decrypted or some parts of the keys to be determined by an attacker depending on which cipher is used. IV. Workaround An updated version of wpa_supplicant is available in the FreeBSD Ports Collection. Install version 2.6_2 or later of the security/wpa_supplicant port/pkg. Once installed, update /etc/rc.conf to use the new binary: wpa_supplicant_program="/usr/local/sbin/wpa_supplicant" and restart networking. An updated version of hostapd is available in the FreeBSD Ports Collection. Install version 2.6_1 or later of the net/hostapd port/pkg. Once installed, update /etc/rc.conf to use the new binary: hostapd_program="/usr/local/sbin/hostapd" and restart hostapd. V. Solution Perform one of the following: 1) Upgrade your vulnerable system to a supported FreeBSD stable or release / security branch (releng) dated after the correction date. Restart the Wi-Fi network interfaces/hostapd or reboot the system. 2) To update your vulnerable system via a binary patch: Systems running a RELEASE version of FreeBSD on the i386 or amd64 platforms can be updated via the freebsd-update(8) utility: # freebsd-update fetch # freebsd-update install Restart the Wi-Fi network interfaces/hostapd or reboot the system. 3) To update your vulnerable system via a source code patch: The following patches have been verified to apply to the applicable FreeBSD release branches. a) Download the relevant patch from the location below, and verify the detached PGP signature using your PGP utility.
