8.17    We implemented an attack against WEP, the link-layer security
        protocol for 802.11 networks. The attack was described in a
        recent paper by Fluhrer, Mantin, and Shamir. With our
        implementation, and permission of the network administrator, we
        were able to recover the 128 bit secret key used in a production
        network, with a passive attack. The WEP standard uses RC4 IVs
        improperly, and the attack exploits this design failure. This
        paper describes the attack, how we implemented it, and some
        optimizations to make the attack more efficient. We conclude that
        802.11 WEP is totally insecure, and we provide some
        recommendations.

        \_ I found that original paper a couple of weeks ago.  My thought
           is the obvious one: WEP is completely insecure, and to a
           passive attack.  - mikeym
