Hi,
In case anyone has not been following recent security news there
has been a rash of reported security vulnerabilities with various
wireless drivers and this might well affect some Linux users as
well.
Have a look at:-
http://www.infoworld.com/article/06/11/24/48OPsecadvise_1.html
In part it says:- "Wireless network card drivers have been under
attack since the Black Hat USA 2006 conference, and nearly
every super-popular driver now appears vulnerable."
