Apple Inc. has issued an update for AirPort Extreme which is their wireless networking product. The company said that the AirPort Extreme Update 2007-02 would improve its compatibility with AirPort Extreme base stations and networks.

The company added that this updated would also improve compatibility for the MacBook Core 2 Duo and the MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo if they are using certain third-party access points configured to use WEP Open System security.

The update also fixes a security issue where attackers on the wireless network may cause system crashes. The company’s official note states that an attacker in local proximity may be able to trigger a system crash by sending a maliciously-crafted frame to an affected system.
