Izolo iqabane lam uJordi likuxelele malunga nobungozi Ukuba sesichengeni kwenkqubo ye-WPA2 ifunyenwe yingcali yokhuseleko lwekhompyuter uMathy Vanhoef, umngcipheko wokuba ichaphazela zonke iintlobo zezixhobo ezisebenzisa le protocol yokhuseleko ukukhusela unxibelelwano lwakho, nokuba zii-smartphones, ii-routers, iimodem, iipilisi, iikhompyuter ...
Isisombululo kolu buthathaka silula, kuba nge isixhobo esilula sokuhlaziywa kwefirmware silungisiwe. Ingxaki kukuba uninzi luya kuba zizixhobo ezisebenzisa le protocol ezingazukufumana uhlaziyo oluhambelanayo oluvela kumenzi. Ngethamsanqa, abasebenzisi bemveliso yeApple banokuqiniseka.
Ngoku ka AppleInsider, icaphula kwimithombo engaziwayo kwiiofisi zeCupertino, U-Apple sele eyilungisile le ngxaki kwii-betas zangaphambili yeenkqubo zokusebenza ezisebenzayo ngoku kuzo zonke izixhobo zeApple ezibaxhasayo. Kodwa kubonakala ngathi leli qhekeza kuphela elijongana nobungozi kwezixhobo ezilawulwa yi-macOS, i-iOS, i-tvOS kunye ne-watchOS.
I-AirPort Extreme, i-AirPort Express, kunye nezixhobo zeTime Machine azikafumani hlaziyo lufanelekileyo kwaye akuqinisekanga ukuba bazakuyenzaKuba ezi modeli ziyekisiwe yinkampani ngaphezulu konyaka ophelileyo kwaye uhlaziyo lwamva nje lwefirmware lwakhutshwa ngoDisemba wonyaka ophelileyo. UAppleInsider uzamile ukuqhakamshelana noApple ukuqinisekisa ukuba ezi modeli ziya kufumana uhlaziyo, kodwa akafumananga mpendulo.
Ukuze usebenzise eli thuba lokuba sesichengeni, kuya kufuneka usebenze kunye ne-router kunye nesixhobo esisesichengeni. Ukuba isixhobo sethu, nokuba yi-iPhone, i-iPad okanye iMac, siyisombulule ingxaki, akukho ngxaki ukuba siqhubeke nokusebenzisa igqala lethu iAirPortNangona isesichengeni, into ebonakala ngathi iqinisekisiwe, kuba iApple iyathandabuza kakhulu ukuba iya kugxila kwimizamo yayo kwisixhobo esingasasebenziyo.
