Back in June of 2017, researchers at Google Project Zero and a few other academic institutions and security firms discovered two vulnerabilities that have been codenamed Meltdown and Spectre. Both are fundamental flaws in the design of the processors that power almost all modern computers, tablets, and smart phones. These vulnerabilities can be exploited to access the entire memory contents of an affected system. This would allow someone to steal passwords, encryption keys, and other sensitive data that is normally only accessible to the operating system.

On October 16, 2017, security researchers announced several vulnerabilities in the WPA/WPA2 encryption protocol that affect countless Wi-Fi enabled devices worldwide. As a result of KRACK, Wi-Fi data streams, including passwords and personal data, can be intercepted, decrypted, and modified without a user’s knowledge. This security flaw means that, for vulnerable clients and access points, WPA- and WPA2-encrypted Wi-Fi traffic is potentially exposed until certain steps are taken to remediate the issue.
