This was exactly the point I was trying to make in my first email. -----Original Message----- From: Michael Cunningham To: H C; vuln-devat_private Sent: 5/1/02 6:05 PM Subject: RE: Wlan @ bestbuy is cleartext? This information is already going public. I have gotten several emails from newspapers and online websites (big names to). The faster it is exposed the less damage people with not the best of intentions can do. Realisticaly the underground community probably makes up half or more of this mailing list. I personally am going to scan my local stores tonight to see if I can detect this problem. I cant trust a company with my credit card info who cant even setup a 802.11b lan correctly. I will let everyone know what I find.
