Trying to deploy WPA3 on my home network

Introduction

Recently, news broke about a new possible offline attack on WPA2 using PMKID. To summarize the attack, WPA2 protected APs can end up broadcasting PMKID values which can then be used to offline-brute-force the password.

These PMKID values are computed this way:

PMKID = HMAC-SHA1-128(PMK, "PMK Name" | MAC_AP | MAC_STA)
