Windows Wifi Vulnerability CVE-2024-30078

[TPFanatic]

Putting this in the 7 forum because 10,11, and server versions 2008 and newer get patched but 7 and older doesn’t lol.

from what I’ve been told the process by which Windows identifies access point names can be exploited to hack Windows systems.

I’m going to become friends with Server…

edit: using some software from another forum I now have an install of Server 2008 R2 with version 6.1.7601.27162 of the nwifi.sys driver located in C:\Windows\System32\drivers, which is patched for CVE-2024-30078. This is essentially the Windows 7 experience without the wireless vulnerability otherwise left unpatched in old versions of Windows and without the enshittification of Windows 8+. Call me happy.
