If CONFIG_BRIDGE_NETFILTER=y you should be able to filter this in 
your FORWARD chain, e.g., for an unbridged wlan0:

-A FORWARD -i wlan0 -o wlan0 -j DROP

(You might want to use a user chain with appropriate REJECT rules for 
the protocol in question.)

If CONFIG_BRIDGE_NETFILTER=y and wlan0 is part of a bridge, you would 
need the physdev match:

-A FORWARD -i br0 -o br0 -m physdev --physdev-in wlan0 --physdev-out wlan0 -j DROP

However, do note that 802.11, being radio traffic, can be sniffed by 
any receiver. You cannot prevent that.
