Via Cisco.

[snip]

A vulnerability exists in Cisco Aironet Wireless Access Points (AP) running IOS which may allow a malicious user to 
send a crafted attack via IP address Resolution Protocol (ARP) to the Access point which will cause the device to stop 
passing traffic and/or drop user connections.

Repeated exploitation of this vulnerability will create a sustained DoS (denial of service).
