@quanxian - There are quite a few CVEs grouped together under the krack
attack moniker. Is the firmware vulnerable to all of these attacks? If
not, which specific CVE numbers are addressed? I tried finding this
information on the krack attack web site and from the NIST advisories,
but I couldn't find any references to Intel wireless firmware. The
closest I found was this:

https://security-center.intel.com/advisory.aspx?intelid=INTEL-
SA-00101&languageid=en-fr

but that still doesn't break out which vulnerabilities affected the
firmware specifically; based on that it could be as many as 4 of them or
as few as 2. Please advise, thanks!
