		mey on Aug 4, 2018 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: New attack on WPA using PMKID Is this an attack on WPA generally, or just WPA and not WPA2. I don't know if WPA are discrete designs with a common name or an evolution of the same design ala SSL.

The title seems like it's got a typo and WPA2 should be in there along with WPA: "New attack on WPA/WPA using PMKID".

Why say WPA/WPA instead of just WPA? Unless they meant WPA/WPA2.
