Intel 2200BG 802.11 Malformed Disassociation Packets Denial Of Service Vulnerability

Intel 2200BG driver is prone to a denial-of-service vulnerability because it fails to properly handle malformed network data.

A remote attacker can exploit this issue by crafting and submitting maliciously crafted network data to a victim.

Successful exploits may allow remote attackers to corrupt kernel memory and crash affected computers, effectively denying further service to legitimate users. Given the nature of this issue, code execution seems possible, but this has not been confirmed.

This issue was discovered in the Intel 2200 driver version 9.0.3.9; other versions may also be affected.
