Security Policy

Altough we do our best to prevent vulnerabilities, and have tools to help catch most of them, we are humans after all, and there will be inevitably issues slipping through the cracks.

They can fall into two categories, either in any of the tools in the Aircrack-ng suite, or in our presence online (website, forum, emails, DNS, etc.).

Depending which category they fall into, different information is needed. We do believe in coordinated disclosure, so in order to address them, and coordinate disclosure with you (and properly credit you for the discovery), report them to us. Do not open bug reports or pull requests.

Our contact email for security issues is [email protected]

If you are unsure how to proceed, need clarifications or have questions or remarks about this policy, feel free to email us to inquire.

Aircrack-ng suite vulnerabilities

Supported versions

We only support the latest stable present on https://aircrack-ng.org

For security issues present in our GitHub repository (master or any recently active branch), open a pull request or bug report.

For any security issue affecting older versions of Aircrack-ng still present in currently supported Linux or BSD distributions, file a report with them, and email us a short description of the vulnerability along with a link to the bug report.

Reporting

There is no particular template to report the vulnerabilities. Keep in mind that a vulnerability is essentially a bug, so please provide us detailed information on how to reproduce it, such as:

  • Which Aircrack-ng tools are affected? And how? Any proof of concept to demonstrate it?
  • Operating systems involved, kernel versions (uname -a and lsb_release -a for example).
  • CPU architecture (aircrack-ng -u output is useful); a vulnerability on a x86 32 bit may not be exploitable on ARM 64 bit. A bug may also only be present when Aircrack-ng is compiled a certain way.
  • All the commands needed to trigger the issue.
  • Did you compile it yourself or did you get it from a package?
  • What equipment did you use? A packet capture may be useful; different equipment behaves differently, they have different Wi-Fi stacks, drivers, and firmwares.
  • A patch to fix the issue, if available.
  • If CVE numbers have been assigned, please provide them as well.

Public disclosure

Altough it is essentially a bug, do not submit a bug report or a pull request, but email us the data first, so we can coordinate fixing the issue and assist you in filing the bug reports, and if you provided a patch, the pull request; a patch may need to be broken down in multiple commits for clarity, for example.

Online presence

For any security issue affecting us specifically (any aircrack-ng.org subdomain) such as misconfiguration of our hosting, DNS, email, servers, or misconfiguration of the software we are using, email us with all the details regarding your findings.

Anything else should be reported to the author or provider of the software, hardware, or hosting.
