CVE-2020-24586 is a vulnerability in the 802.11 Wi-Fi standard affecting WPA, WPA2, WPA3, and WEP, impacting products from vendors like Arista, Debian, Intel, and Linux. It stems from the standard not requiring the clearing of received fragments from memory after reconnection, allowing for potential arbitrary packet injection or data exfiltration under specific conditions. Rated with a CVSS score of 3.5 (LOW), this vulnerability requires adjacent network access and user interaction, with a low impact on confidentiality and no impact on integrity or availability. There is no evidence of active exploitation, no public exploit code available (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), and minimal community discussion or media coverage beyond initial reporting.
