At Eurocrypt’11, we presented an attack framework on RC4 with applications to the analysis of WEP and WPA . We obtained an efficient distinguisher for WPA and the best theoretical key recovery attack on WPA so far. In this presentation we revisit these work and give new results. We identify several flaws in the analysis and correct them. This is joint work with Pouyan Sepehrdad and Martin Vuagnoux.
