A reasonable article on the WPA attack that has been making the rounds
on the blogs...
http://arstechnica.com/articles/paedia/wpa-cracked.ars/1
and the actual paper:
http://dl.aircrack-ng.org/breakingwepandwpa.pdf
The attack is not very general, but it is interesting.
[Hat tip for the Ars Technica article to Bruce Schneier.]
