Last modified

CVE-2005-4835 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The ath_rate_sample function in the ath_rate/sample/sample.c sample code in MadWifi before 0.9.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (failed KASSERT and system crash) by moving a connected system to a location with low signal strength, and possibly other vectors related to a race condition between interface enabling and packet transmission.. EPSS estimates a 1.73% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
