Feed Name: Schneier on Security
AirSnitch is a newly described Wi‑Fi attack that abuses cross‑layer identity desynchronization between Layers 1/2 and higher layers to perform a full bidirectional machine‑in‑the‑middle. The attacker can intercept and modify link‑layer traffic across SSIDs and network segments, expose or tamper with plaintext web and intranet traffic, perform DNS cache poisoning, and enable further exploitation of unpatched vulnerabilities; the writeup references an academic paper and outlines impact on home, office, and enterprise Wi‑Fi.
