BYPASSING WIFI CLIENT ISOLATION

Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

Client isolation is a security feature that prevents devices connected to the same network from communicating directly with each other. A device can spoof WiFi frames with the From-DS to bypass the Access Point (AP) and make a client think the communication is coming from the distribution system instead of directly from a client. In an encrypted network, the attacker will also need to spoof the WPA 4-way handshake or use a tool like aircrack-ng to deauthenticate a victim device.
