Does 802.11n introduce new security vulnerabilities?

0

802.11n gives rise to new DoS attacks that exploit the Block Ack (BA) feature. An attacker can launch a DoS attack by inserting fake, out-of-order ADDBA packets and cause the receiver to drop valid packets that it perceives as out of order. An attacker can also tear down sessions with a fake DELBA packet.
