Discovery of undocumented Qualcomm mesh topology 802.11 frames.

This submission highlights a critical vulnerability or opportunity in network diagnostics. The discovery of undocumented Qualcomm vendor IE frames broadcasting mesh topology data from Netgear Orbi WiFi 7 nodes exposes proprietary network behavior. This information, previously unavailable in standard tools like Wireshark, offers significant implications for network security, competitive analysis, and advanced troubleshooting. Enterprises deploying such mesh networks could face unknown security risks or gain unprecedented visibility into their infrastructure if this data is leveraged. The ability to map network layouts without association to APs presents a powerful tool for both legitimate network administrators and potential adversaries. This underscores the ongoing challenge of proprietary hardware obscuring critical operational details.
