Because these [deauthentication frames](https://mrncciew.com/2014/10/11/802-11-mgmt-deauth-disassociation-frames/), usually used to close a Wi-Fi connection safely, are unencrypted, it's very easy to spoof them. You only need the mac address of the access point, which you can sniff easily.
If you don't want to attack all connected devices, you can also scan for connections and attack them specifically.

### How to protect yourself against it
With [802.11w-2009](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11w-2009) the Wi-Fi protocol became encrypted management (and deauthentication) frames. This makes spoofing these packets way harder and the attack, in this form, ineffective.
