Hackers could exploit networks to get user passwords.
The latest WPA3 WiFi security and authentication standard may be suffering from serious safety flaws of its own.
This is according to a group of researchers - Mathy Vanhoef and Eyal Ronen, who issued a report called “Dragonblood – A Security Analysis of WPA3’s SAE Handshake”, which identifies design flaws in the WPA3 standard's Dragonfly key exchange, hence the Dragonblood name.
They disclosed a total of five vulnerabilities, four of which could be used to recover user passwords, while the fifth one could be used to ‘only’ crash WPA3-compatible access points.
The details about the vulnerabilities, how they operate and how they attack the network can be found on this link.
