According to netgears site their routers are only vulnerable in bridge mode, since Voxels code is a branch of netgears I would expect the worst until confirmation.I am using a X4s in "Bridge AP" mode with Voxel's firmware and I was wondering if this is susceptible to that WPA-2 vulnerability?
I would expect the worst until confirmation.
Thanks for the reply!According to netgears site their routers are only vulnerable in bridge mode, since Voxels code is a branch of netgears I would expect the worst until confirmation.

1.0.2.37 is Voxels own, so that wont count as they are talking about netgear official firmware versions, Voxels 1.0.2.37 incorporated fixes from Netgears 1.0.2.36 I believe. So as of now you are at risk in bridge mode. Once a new Netgear firmware is released with a fix Voxel will wrap that into his branch I imagine pretty quickly, but as of now there is no fix released.Thanks for the reply!
I read that document and it states that if one is using firmware1.0.2.36 or earlier. It is vulnerable.
So if one updates to 1.0.2.37 or above. It is not vulnerable.
Is that correct?

Ok!1.0.2.37 is Voxels own, so that wont count as they are talking about netgear official firmware versions, Voxels 1.0.2.37 incorporated fixes from Netgears 1.0.2.36 I believe.

Wish it was better news, I'm sure Netgear will get updates out soon. I'm still waiting for patches for all of my gear and probably will be for a whileOk!
Thanks!
