"received packet without ExtIV flag" repeating messages

I just wanted to add a "me too"

 * Ubuntu Feisty, iBook G4 (powerpc)
 * uname -a
    Linux foobar-g4 2.6.20-15-powerpc #3 Sun Apr 15 06:45:49 UTC 2007 ppc GNU/Linux
 * 0001:10:12.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 03)
 * using bcm43xx as the kernel module, "wext" as WPA driver
 * AP is a Netgear WPN802v2

CCMP: received packet without ExtIV flag from 00:14:6c:7c:dc:9a
TKIP: replay detected: STA=00:18:4d:89:c9:8e previous TSC 000000000000 received TSC 000000000000

Note: 00:18:4d:89:c9:8e is the HW address from the AP, I could not find out the origin of the first HW address (this is different than the report from Patrick)

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Christian.

I too am getting this, and like Christian, I do not know the source of the MAC address sending out the bad packets. (I do not get his TKIP line) It concerns me a great deal, since I'm getting this on my laptop, NOT on my access point! I've searched the logs on my AP and can't find any mention of that MAC address. Where could it be coming from? Could it be originating from the internet? I didn't think that would trigger a CCMP error. If anyone has any ideas on this issue, I would really appreciate it!

This isn't the ieee80211 module

Since I've upgraded to Gutsy, I don't see these messages any more. As the messages did not seem to harm functionality, and others might use Gutsy too, I'd probably like to see this bug closed...

Thanks,
Christian.

Is this symptom still reproducible in 8.10 or 9.04?

I don't think it is. Error logging got revised in mainline

    [PATCH] ieee80211-crypt: Make some TKIP and CCMP error logging conditional

    There are messages arising from ieee80211_crypt that spam the logs
    of casual users. These are changed to be logged only if the user
    specifically requests the IEEE80211_DEBUG_DROP messages. In either
    case, the error/drop count is incremented.

And IEEE80211_DEBUG_DROP is not set in Hardy, I doubt it's set in later versions.

$ grep IEEE80211_DEBUG /boot/config-2.6.24-22-xen
# CONFIG_IEEE80211_DEBUG is not set
