An Initial Security Analysis of the IEEE 802.1X Standard
The IEEE 802.11 standard is now known to lack any robust security 
mechanism. A proposed long term security architecture for 802.11 is the 
Enhanced Security Network (ESN) which uses the recent IEEE 802.1X standard 
as a basis for access control, authentication, and key management. In this 
talk, we will present several security problems (session hijacking, and the 
establishment of a man-in-the-middle) we identified in the state machines 
of the protocol as well as a severe implementation flaw in a popular 
implementation. We will also present solutions and mitigation strategies to 
the problems we've identified.
