eldavojohn writes: "The Gentoo Security folks have issued a security advisory against MadWifi as they have discovered a method by which an attacker could "act as an access point and send a specially crafted packet to an Atheros based wireless client, possibly resulting in a Denial of Service (kernel panic)." There currently is no known work around or fix."
