The Intel Centrino Wireless cards do not support Connected Standby and Modern Standby capabilities.įor more information, see How does Modern Standby relate to Windows 8 Connected Standby?

The packet arrives over the wireless network in order for it to wake up the system. WoWLAN-enabled computers look for a pre-defined packet (for example, magic packet). This protocol uses the Wi-Fi network card, when connected to a Wi-Fi network. WoWLAN is an industry standard protocol for waking up computers remotely from a low-power state. The mitigation described here has not been validated with the adapters end-of-life'd earlier than 2014. Intel Centrino Wireless Adapters not listed above were end-of-life'd before 2014. The listed Intel Centrino® Wireless Adapters were end-of-life'd in 20. These products do not have planned software updates.ĭisabling the Wake-on-Wireless-LAN functionality (WoWLAN) is considered a reasonable mitigation against CVE-2017-13080, CVE-2017-13081 and CVE-2017-5729.
