No need to shelve the device, just don't treat WiFi as a "trusted zone" and use better encryption on top of WPA2. You should anyway, and this vulnerability is just another small reason why. What this vulnerability does -- as I understand it -- is, when a device dissociates with the network, send the rest of the tx buffer with a zero'd out encryption key. And thus leaks a small amount of data. Not good, however if you apply common best practices to your network I wouldn't lose any sleep over it.
