** Description changed: - ath9k_htc improperly updates MAC address + The ath9k_htc_set_bssid_mask function in + drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/htc_drv_main.c in the Linux kernel + through 3.12 uses a BSSID masking approach to determine the set of MAC + addresses on which a Wi-Fi device is listening, which allows remote + attackers to discover the original MAC address after spoofing by sending + a series of packets to MAC addresses with certain bit manipulations.
