TinySec: a link layer security architecture for wireless sensor networks (2004, background): “However, security researchers quickly found WEP to be thoroughly flawed [12, 20, 38, 42]: its 24-bit IVs are too short; the CRC checksum fails to protect integrity; and, naive use of the IV to diversify RC4’s key enables devastating cryptanalytic related-key attacks.”
Security considerations for IEEE 802.15.4 networks (2004, background): “Researchers have discovered unauthenticated encryption vulnerabilities in IPSec [12], 802.11 [ 13 ],and SSH version 1 [2, 4, 5] that compromise not only integrity but also conden tiality.”
