If you don't have an access point configured on your WiFi radio, your radio will listen only, and never reply, hence there is no vulnerability.

I have no use for it to be on, inviting a "drive by" attack or wasting cpu cycles. An iw wlan0 scan finds as many as a dozen signals, one quite a bit stronger than the others call's its SSID: "Fbi surveillance van." I even catch the next door neighbors hp printer. Thank you all.
