While this is a Wifi flaw and therefore affects ALL OPERATING SYSTEMS, our Admin will be happy to find out that the Wifi clients used on Linux based systems
are more easier compromised in the latest updates e.g. from Android 6.0 on.
This allows man in the middle attacks that can happen on any wifi connection, where not only data is stolen but can also be injected e.g ransomware anywhere, even onto websites.
This ransom/malware would then still be OS specific though.
