CVE-2022-47522 describes a vulnerability in IEEE 802.11 Wi-Fi specifications, including 802.11ax, that allows physically proximate attackers to intercept target-destined frames, potentially in cleartext, by spoofing MAC addresses and manipulating power save and authentication frames. This high-severity flaw (CVSS 7.5) has a high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability, requiring an adjacent attack vector and high attack complexity. While there is no known active exploitation or public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), the vulnerability has garnered some community discussion and media coverage, indicating awareness within the security community.
