NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gfs2-kmp-rt package and not the gfs2-kmp-rt package as distributed by SLES.

The 802.11 standard that underpins Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA, WPA2, and WPA3) and Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) doesn't require that all fragments of a frame are encrypted under the same key. An adversary can abuse this to decrypt selected fragments when another device sends fragmented frames and the WEP, CCMP, or GCMP encryption key is periodically renewed.
