Problems solved by technology

When the attacker forges the information related to the communication channel in the Beacon frame and replays it, it will cause an attack on the client connected to the WiFi network
For example, after the client receives information about the malformed communication channel in the Beacon frame, the network connection may be interrupted or the system may crash due to data parsing errors
For another example, the client receives forged communication channel-related information in the Beacon frame and executes wrong instructions to switch channels, resulting in connection interruption or man-in-the-middle attacks

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides a method and device for managing a communication channel. A specific embodiment of the method is executed through wireless access point (AP) equipment. The method comprises the following steps: constructing an original management frame carrying a target information element at a wireless access point (AP) device end, wherein the target information element comprises an information element related to communication channel management; and under the condition that it is determined that there is a client connected to the AP device, for each client connected to the AP device, setting a target address of the constructed management frame as an MAC address of the client, and encrypting information in the target information element by using a key corresponding to the client; and then, sending the set address and the encrypted management frame in the WiFi network.

Description

technical field [0001] The embodiments of this specification relate to the field of computer technologies, and in particular, to a method and device for managing communication channels. Background technique [0002] With the development of wireless communication, more and more devices are connected to the network through WiFi to realize intelligent functions. The openness of WiFi communication provides convenience for terminal equipment to connect to the wireless network, and also provides an opportunity for attackers. Attackers can forge and replay any frame on the wireless network, which poses a great threat to user information security. For example, a Beacon frame, as a beacon frame of a wireless AP (Wireless Access Point, wireless access point), is usually transmitted in clear text, and anyone can monitor and forge it. When the attacker forges the information related to the communication channel in the Beacon frame and replays it, it will cause an attack on the client ...
