A security researcher has discovered another Wi-Fi name that will disable Wi-Fi on your iPhones.

Carl Schou tweeted that if an iPhone comes within range of a Wi-Fi network named "%secretclub%power" then that iPhone will lose Wi-Fi connectivity and any other Wi-Fi related functions.

This bug reportedly persists even if you reset network settings. The only fix is a hard reset of the device.

Given the severity of the bug, we do not recommend users try this.

Weeks ago, Schou also discovered another Wi-Fi related bug. He found that if an iPhone connected to a network with the name  "%p%s%s%s%s%n" it would disable the phone's Wi-Fi and networking features like AirDrop. Fortunately, this bug can be fixed more easily by resetting the affected phone's networking settings in the Settings app.

According to 9to5:

''the ‘%[character]’ syntax is commonly used in programming languages to format variables into an output string. In C, the ‘per centn’ specifier means to save the number of characters written into the format string out to a variable passed to the string format function.

''The Wi-Fi subsystem probably passes the Wi-Fi network name (SSID) unsanitized to some internal library that is performing string formatting, which in turn causes an arbitrary memory write and buffer overflow. This will lead to memory corruption and the iOS watchdog will kill the process, hence effectively disabling Wi-Fi for the user.''

With that in mind, it's likely that there are more variants of these bugged network names with per cents, per centp and per centn character sequences.

We recommend people not joining any network with the per cent character in their names.
