Apple patches Wi-Fi but refuses to give researchers credit
After all the controversy, it turns out that there really are critical vulnerabilities in Apple's Wi-Fi drivers that affect Intel and PowerPC based Macs described in three separate CVEs. After more than six weeks of Apple's spin that strongly implied there was no Wi-Fi vulnerability and six weeks of conspiracy theories that this whole thing was a fabricated stunt to garner attention for some fake security researchers, Apple released three critical patches before next week's Toorcon event where security researchers Brian Maynor and Jon Ellch are planning to release details on the Apple Wi-Fi exploit and more.
