Intel Centrino Wireless Exploit

A popular attack framework has released an exploit that takes advantage of a vulnerability within older Intel Centrino wireless drivers. Specifically the Intel 2200BG has this issue. The vulnerability exists with the w22n51.sys driver which has a buffer overflow. It would be a very good idea to make sure you are running the latest wireless drivers if you’re using an Intel Centrino based laptop, as the exploit will infect every machine vulnerable within the vicinity at the kernel level.
