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.]
