description

Broadcom devices using the affected Wi-Fi Protected Setup implementation may be vulnerable. An attacker close enough to communicate over Wi-Fi could execute code with root-level privileges on an affected router.

mitigation

Disable WPS on affected devices where configuration permits, and limit wireless access to trusted users and locations. Obtain and apply firmware updates from the device vendor when they become available.
