Hey,
I just looked at the deaggregation code for unrelated reasons and
thought about it a bit more; shouldn't there be some sort of checks that
the 802.11 rules about identical addresses are adhered to to avoid
having rogue packets pretending to come from somewhere else enter the
networking stack? This can usually be avoided by using RSNA, but this
code allows one to easily circumvent this which makes us look pretty
bad.
Makes you wonder why they included full 802.3 framing in the
subframes...
johannes
