So, this hack requires the use of a 3rd party WIFI card? In a MacBook that already has a Airport card? Or did I miss something?

I this is the case, there is very, very little concern. Who is putting a second WIFI card on their MacBook?


Hi Allen,

No.

This hack uses an exploit in the low level hardware drivers used in the Airport card in the MacBook. As this is a chipset used in lots of cards and laptops, it becomes a little more serious than just a few Macs

It is, however, not Mac specific.
