Passenger returning from DEF CON 34 spoofs Delta Wi-Fi network while in flight using pentest tool — pilots tell ground crew to alert corporate security after attendee from hacking conference brings the party to the sky

Summary

A flight carrying passengers who attended a cybersecurity convention reportedly had its Wi-Fi network victimized by deauthentication attacks while an 'evil twin' hotspot rerouted potential victims to a phishing website. While flight safety was never affected, it's unclear if any of the other passengers had their credentials stolen while in the air.
