Model: Adapter  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version:

The Carnegie Mellon University informs that there are some vulnerabilites in Broadcom chipset drivers. https://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/166939/

As far as I know, my TP-Link AC1300 Archer T6E V1.1 adapter, works with a BCM4352 Broadcom chip.

Am I exposed to any risk ?  Will TP-Link provide a new driver for this adapter ?

Best regards.

Hi,

 

Thanks a lot for your valued reply. 

 

We have informed our R&D colleagues and they will work on it. Any updates, I will let you know immediately. 

 

Per the article, it is suggested to connect to the trusted wifi network for now as a workaround. 

 

Thanks for your support and cooperation. Nice day.
