  1. ChangeLog for hostapd
  2. ????-??-?? - v0.6.7
  3. * added support for Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)
  4. (hostapd can now be configured to act as an integrated WPS Registrar
  5. and provision credentials for WPS Enrollees using PIN and PBC
  6. methods; external WPS Registrars are not supported); WPS support can
  7. be enabled by adding CONFIG_WPS=y into .config and setting the
  8. runtime configuration variables in hostapd.conf (see WPS section in
  9. the example configuration file); new hostapd_cli commands wps_pin and
  10. wps_pbc are used to configure WPS negotiation; see README-WPS for
  11. more details
  12. * added IEEE 802.11n HT capability configuration (ht_capab)
  13. * added support for generating Country IE based on nl80211 regulatory
  14. information (added if ieee80211d=1 in configuration)
  15. * fixed WEP authentication (both Open System and Shared Key) with
  16. mac80211
  17. * added support for EAP-AKA' (draft-arkko-eap-aka-kdf)
  18. * added support for using driver_test over UDP socket
  19. 2008-11-23 - v0.6.6
  20. * added a new configuration option, wpa_ptk_rekey, that can be used to
  21. enforce frequent PTK rekeying, e.g., to mitigate some attacks against
  22. TKIP deficiencies
  23. * updated OpenSSL code for EAP-FAST to use an updated version of the
  24. session ticket overriding API that was included into the upstream
  25. OpenSSL 0.9.9 tree on 2008-11-15 (no additional OpenSSL patch is
  26. needed with that version anymore)
  27. * changed channel flags configuration to read the information from
  28. the driver (e.g., via driver_nl80211 when using mac80211) instead of
  29. using hostapd as the source of the regulatory information (i.e.,
  30. information from CRDA is now used with mac80211); this allows 5 GHz
  31. channels to be used with hostapd (if allowed in the current
  32. regulatory domain)
  33. * fixed EAP-TLS message processing for the last TLS message if it is
  34. large enough to require fragmentation (e.g., if a large Session
  35. Ticket data is included)
  36. * fixed listen interval configuration for nl80211 drivers
  37. 2008-11-01 - v0.6.5
  38. * added support for SHA-256 as X.509 certificate digest when using the
  39. internal X.509/TLSv1 implementation
  40. * fixed EAP-FAST PAC-Opaque padding (0.6.4 broke this for some peer
  41. identity lengths)
  42. * fixed internal TLSv1 implementation for abbreviated handshake (used
  43. by EAP-FAST server)
  44. * added support for setting VLAN ID for STAs based on local MAC ACL
  45. (accept_mac_file) as an alternative for RADIUS server-based
  46. configuration
  47. * updated management frame protection to use IEEE 802.11w/D6.0
  48. (adds a new association ping to protect against unauthenticated
  49. authenticate or (re)associate request frames dropping association)
  50. * added support for using SHA256-based stronger key derivation for WPA2
  51. (IEEE 802.11w)
  52. * added new "driver wrapper" for RADIUS-only configuration
  53. (driver=none in hostapd.conf; CONFIG_DRIVER_NONE=y in .config)
  54. * fixed WPA/RSN IE validation to verify that the proto (WPA vs. WPA2)
  55. is enabled in configuration
  56. * changed EAP-FAST configuration to use separate fields for A-ID and
  57. A-ID-Info (eap_fast_a_id_info) to allow A-ID to be set to a fixed
  58. 16-octet len binary value for better interoperability with some peer
  59. implementations; eap_fast_a_id is now configured as a hex string
  60. * driver_nl80211: Updated to match the current Linux mac80211 AP mode
  61. configuration (wireless-testing.git and Linux kernel releases
  62. starting from 2.6.29)
  63. 2008-08-10 - v0.6.4
  64. * added peer identity into EAP-FAST PAC-Opaque and skip Phase 2
  65. Identity Request if identity is already known
  66. * added support for EAP Sequences in EAP-FAST Phase 2
  67. * added support for EAP-TNC (Trusted Network Connect)
  68. (this version implements the EAP-TNC method and EAP-TTLS/EAP-FAST
  69. changes needed to run two methods in sequence (IF-T) and the IF-IMV
  70. and IF-TNCCS interfaces from TNCS)
  71. * added support for optional cryptobinding with PEAPv0
  72. * added fragmentation support for EAP-TNC
  73. * added support for fragmenting EAP-TTLS/PEAP/FAST Phase 2 (tunneled)
  74. data
  75. * added support for opportunistic key caching (OKC)
  76. 2008-02-22 - v0.6.3
  77. * fixed Reassociation Response callback processing when using internal
  78. MLME (driver_{hostap,nl80211,test}.c)
  79. * updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D9.0
  80. * copy optional Proxy-State attributes into RADIUS response when acting
  81. as a RADIUS authentication server
  82. * fixed EAPOL state machine to handle a case in which no response is
  83. received from the RADIUS authentication server; previous version
  84. could have triggered a crash in some cases after a timeout
  85. * fixed EAP-SIM/AKA realm processing to allow decorated usernames to
  86. be used
  87. * added a workaround for EAP-SIM/AKA peers that include incorrect null
  88. termination in the username
  89. * fixed EAP-SIM/AKA protected result indication to include AT_COUNTER
  90. attribute in notification messages only when using fast
  91. reauthentication
  92. * fixed EAP-SIM Start response processing for fast reauthentication
  93. case
  94. * added support for pending EAP processing in EAP-{PEAP,TTLS,FAST}
  95. phase 2 to allow EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA to be used as the Phase 2 method
  96. 2008-01-01 - v0.6.2
  97. * fixed EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA message parser to validate attribute
  98. lengths properly to avoid potential crash caused by invalid messages
  99. * added data structure for storing allocated buffers (struct wpabuf);
  100. this does not affect hostapd usage, but many of the APIs changed
  101. and various interfaces (e.g., EAP) is not compatible with old
  102. versions
  103. * added support for protecting EAP-AKA/Identity messages with
  104. AT_CHECKCODE (optional feature in RFC 4187)
  105. * added support for protected result indication with AT_RESULT_IND for
  106. EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA (eap_sim_aka_result_ind=1)
  107. * added support for configuring EAP-TTLS phase 2 non-EAP methods in
  108. EAP server configuration; previously all four were enabled for every
  109. phase 2 user, now all four are disabled by default and need to be
  110. enabled with new method names TTLS-PAP, TTLS-CHAP, TTLS-MSCHAP,
  111. TTLS-MSCHAPV2
  112. * removed old debug printing mechanism and the related 'debug'
  113. parameter in the configuration file; debug verbosity is now set with
  114. -d (or -dd) command line arguments
  115. * added support for EAP-IKEv2 (draft-tschofenig-eap-ikev2-15.txt);
  116. only shared key/password authentication is supported in this version
  117. 2007-11-24 - v0.6.1
  118. * added experimental, integrated TLSv1 server implementation with the
  119. needed X.509/ASN.1/RSA/bignum processing (this can be enabled by
  120. setting CONFIG_TLS=internal and CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH=y in
  121. .config); this can be useful, e.g., if the target system does not
  122. have a suitable TLS library and a minimal code size is required
  123. * added support for EAP-FAST server method to the integrated EAP
  124. server
  125. * updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
  126. draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-07.txt)
  127. * added a new configuration parameter, rsn_pairwise, to allow different
  128. pairwise cipher suites to be enabled for WPA and RSN/WPA2
  129. (note: if wpa_pairwise differs from rsn_pairwise, the driver will
  130. either need to support this or will have to use the WPA/RSN IEs from
  131. hostapd; currently, the included madwifi and bsd driver interfaces do
  132. not have support for this)
  133. * updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D8.0
  134. 2007-05-28 - v0.6.0
  135. * added experimental IEEE 802.11r/D6.0 support
  136. * updated EAP-SAKE to RFC 4763 and the IANA-allocated EAP type 48
  137. * updated EAP-PSK to use the IANA-allocated EAP type 47
  138. * fixed EAP-PSK bit ordering of the Flags field
  139. * fixed configuration reloading (SIGHUP) to re-initialize WPA PSKs
  140. by reading wpa_psk_file [Bug 181]
  141. * fixed EAP-TTLS AVP parser processing for too short AVP lengths
  142. * fixed IPv6 connection to RADIUS accounting server
  143. * updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
  144. draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-04.txt)
  145. * hlr_auc_gw: read GSM triplet file into memory and rotate through the
  146. entries instead of only using the same three triplets every time
  147. (this does not work properly with tests using multiple clients, but
  148. provides bit better triplet data for testing a single client; anyway,
  149. if a better quality triplets are needed, GSM-Milenage should be used
  150. instead of hardcoded triplet file)
  151. * fixed EAP-MSCHAPv2 server to use a space between S and M parameters
  152. in Success Request [Bug 203]
  153. * added support for sending EAP-AKA Notifications in error cases
  154. * updated to use IEEE 802.11w/D2.0 for management frame protection
  155. (still experimental)
  156. * RADIUS server: added support for processing duplicate messages
  157. (retransmissions from RADIUS client) by replying with the previous
  158. reply
  159. 2006-11-24 - v0.5.6
  160. * added support for configuring and controlling multiple BSSes per
  161. radio interface (bss=<ifname> in hostapd.conf); this is only
  162. available with Devicescape and test driver interfaces
  163. * fixed PMKSA cache update in the end of successful RSN
  164. pre-authentication
  165. * added support for dynamic VLAN configuration (i.e., selecting VLAN-ID
  166. for each STA based on RADIUS Access-Accept attributes); this requires
  167. VLAN support from the kernel driver/802.11 stack and this is
  168. currently only available with Devicescape and test driver interfaces
  169. * driver_madwifi: fixed configuration of unencrypted modes (plaintext
  170. and IEEE 802.1X without WEP)
  171. * removed STAKey handshake since PeerKey handshake has replaced it in
  172. IEEE 802.11ma and there are no known deployments of STAKey
  173. * updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
  174. draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-01.txt)
  175. * added preliminary implementation of IEEE 802.11w/D1.0 (management
  176. frame protection)
  177. (Note: this requires driver support to work properly.)
  178. (Note2: IEEE 802.11w is an unapproved draft and subject to change.)
  179. * hlr_auc_gw: added support for GSM-Milenage (for EAP-SIM)
  180. * hlr_auc_gw: added support for reading per-IMSI Milenage keys and
  181. parameters from a text file to make it possible to implement proper
  182. GSM/UMTS authentication server for multiple SIM/USIM cards using
  183. EAP-SIM/EAP-AKA
  184. * fixed session timeout processing with drivers that do not use
  185. ieee802_11.c (e.g., madwifi)
  186. 2006-08-27 - v0.5.5
  187. * added 'hostapd_cli new_sta <addr>' command for adding a new STA into
  188. hostapd (e.g., to initialize wired network authentication based on an
  189. external signal)
  190. * fixed hostapd to add PMKID KDE into 4-Way Handshake Message 1 when
  191. using WPA2 even if PMKSA caching is not used
  192. * added -P<pid file> argument for hostapd to write the current process
  193. id into a file
  194. * added support for RADIUS Authentication Server MIB (RFC 2619)
  195. 2006-06-20 - v0.5.4
  196. * fixed nt_password_hash build [Bug 144]
  197. * added PeerKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e
  198. direct link setup (DLS) to replace STAKey handshake
  199. * added support for EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK,
  200. draft-clancy-emu-eap-shared-secret-00.txt)
  201. * fixed a segmentation fault when RSN pre-authentication was completed
  202. successfully [Bug 152]
  203. 2006-04-27 - v0.5.3
  204. * do not build nt_password_hash and hlr_auc_gw by default to avoid
  205. requiring a TLS library for a successful build; these programs can be
  206. build with 'make nt_password_hash' and 'make hlr_auc_gw'
  207. * added a new configuration option, eapol_version, that can be used to
  208. set EAPOL version to 1 (default is 2) to work around broken client
  209. implementations that drop EAPOL frames which use version number 2
  210. [Bug 89]
  211. * added support for EAP-SAKE (no EAP method number allocated yet, so
  212. this is using the same experimental type 255 as EAP-PSK)
  213. * fixed EAP-MSCHAPv2 message length validation
  214. 2006-03-19 - v0.5.2
  215. * fixed stdarg use in hostapd_logger(): if both stdout and syslog
  216. logging was enabled, hostapd could trigger a segmentation fault in
  217. vsyslog on some CPU -- C library combinations
  218. * moved HLR/AuC gateway implementation for EAP-SIM/AKA into an external
  219. program to make it easier to use for implementing real SS7 gateway;
  220. eap_sim_db is not anymore used as a file name for GSM authentication
  221. triplets; instead, it is path to UNIX domain socket that will be used
  222. to communicate with the external gateway program (e.g., hlr_auc_gw)
  223. * added example HLR/AuC gateway implementation, hlr_auc_gw, that uses
  224. local information (GSM authentication triplets from a text file and
  225. hardcoded AKA authentication data); this can be used to test EAP-SIM
  226. and EAP-AKA
  227. * added Milenage algorithm (example 3GPP AKA algorithm) to hlr_auc_gw
  228. to make it possible to test EAP-AKA with real USIM cards (this is
  229. disabled by default; define AKA_USE_MILENAGE when building hlr_auc_gw
  230. to enable this)
  231. * driver_madwifi: added support for getting station RSN IE from
  232. madwifi-ng svn r1453 and newer; this fixes RSN that was apparently
  233. broken with earlier change (r1357) in the driver
  234. * changed EAP method registration to use a dynamic list of methods
  235. instead of a static list generated at build time
  236. * fixed WPA message 3/4 not to encrypt Key Data field (WPA IE)
  237. [Bug 125]
  238. * added ap_max_inactivity configuration parameter
  239. 2006-01-29 - v0.5.1
  240. * driver_test: added better support for multiple APs and STAs by using
  241. a directory with sockets that include MAC address for each device in
  242. the name (test_socket=DIR:/tmp/test)
  243. * added support for EAP expanded type (vendor specific EAP methods)
  244. 2005-12-18 - v0.5.0 (beginning of 0.5.x development releases)
  245. * added experimental STAKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e
  246. direct link setup (DLS); note: this is disabled by default in both
  247. build and runtime configuration (can be enabled with CONFIG_STAKEY=y
  248. and stakey=1)
  249. * added support for EAP methods to use callbacks to external programs
  250. by buffering a pending request and processing it after the EAP method
  251. is ready to continue
  252. * improved EAP-SIM database interface to allow external request to GSM
  253. HLR/AuC without blocking hostapd process
  254. * added support for using EAP-SIM pseudonyms and fast re-authentication
  255. * added support for EAP-AKA in the integrated EAP authenticator
  256. * added support for matching EAP identity prefixes (e.g., "1"*) in EAP
  257. user database to allow EAP-SIM/AKA selection without extra roundtrip
  258. for EAP-Nak negotiation
  259. * added support for storing EAP user password as NtPasswordHash instead
  260. of plaintext password when using MSCHAP or MSCHAPv2 for
  261. authentication (hash:<16-octet hex value>); added nt_password_hash
  262. tool for hashing password to generate NtPasswordHash
  263. 2005-11-20 - v0.4.7 (beginning of 0.4.x stable releases)
  264. * driver_wired: fixed EAPOL sending to optionally use PAE group address
  265. as the destination instead of supplicant MAC address; this is
  266. disabled by default, but should be enabled with use_pae_group_addr=1
  267. in configuration file if the wired interface is used by only one
  268. device at the time (common switch configuration)
  269. * driver_madwifi: configure driver to use TKIP countermeasures in order
  270. to get correct behavior (IEEE 802.11 association failing; previously,
  271. association succeeded, but hostpad forced disassociation immediately)
  272. * driver_madwifi: added support for madwifi-ng
  273. 2005-10-27 - v0.4.6
  274. * added support for replacing user identity from EAP with RADIUS
  275. User-Name attribute from Access-Accept message, if that is included,
  276. for the RADIUS accounting messages (e.g., for EAP-PEAP/TTLS to get
  277. tunneled identity into accounting messages when the RADIUS server
  278. does not support better way of doing this with Class attribute)
  279. * driver_madwifi: fixed EAPOL packet receive for configuration where
  280. ath# is part of a bridge interface
  281. * added a configuration file and log analyzer script for logwatch
  282. * fixed EAPOL state machine step function to process all state
  283. transitions before processing new events; this resolves a race
  284. condition in which EAPOL-Start message could trigger hostapd to send
  285. two EAP-Response/Identity frames to the authentication server
  286. 2005-09-25 - v0.4.5
  287. * added client CA list to the TLS certificate request in order to make
  288. it easier for the client to select which certificate to use
  289. * added experimental support for EAP-PSK
  290. * added support for WE-19 (hostap, madwifi)
  291. 2005-08-21 - v0.4.4
  292. * fixed build without CONFIG_RSN_PREAUTH
  293. * fixed FreeBSD build
  294. 2005-06-26 - v0.4.3
  295. * fixed PMKSA caching to copy User-Name and Class attributes so that
  296. RADIUS accounting gets correct information
  297. * start RADIUS accounting only after successful completion of WPA
  298. 4-Way Handshake if WPA-PSK is used
  299. * fixed PMKSA caching for the case where STA (re)associates without
  300. first disassociating
  301. 2005-06-12 - v0.4.2
  302. * EAP-PAX is now registered as EAP type 46
  303. * fixed EAP-PAX MAC calculation
  304. * fixed EAP-PAX CK and ICK key derivation
  305. * renamed eap_authenticator configuration variable to eap_server to
  306. better match with RFC 3748 (EAP) terminology
  307. * driver_test: added support for testing hostapd with wpa_supplicant
  308. by using test driver interface without any kernel drivers or network
  309. cards
  310. 2005-05-22 - v0.4.1
  311. * fixed RADIUS server initialization when only auth or acct server
  312. is configured and the other one is left empty
  313. * driver_madwifi: added support for RADIUS accounting
  314. * driver_madwifi: added preliminary support for compiling against 'BSD'
  315. branch of madwifi CVS tree
  316. * driver_madwifi: fixed pairwise key removal to allow WPA reauth
  317. without disassociation
  318. * added support for reading additional certificates from PKCS#12 files
  319. and adding them to the certificate chain
  320. * fixed RADIUS Class attribute processing to only use Access-Accept
  321. packets to update Class; previously, other RADIUS authentication
  322. packets could have cleared Class attribute
  323. * added support for more than one Class attribute in RADIUS packets
  324. * added support for verifying certificate revocation list (CRL) when
  325. using integrated EAP authenticator for EAP-TLS; new hostapd.conf
  326. options 'check_crl'; CRL must be included in the ca_cert file for now
  327. 2005-04-25 - v0.4.0 (beginning of 0.4.x development releases)
  328. * added support for including network information into
  329. EAP-Request/Identity message (ASCII-0 (nul) in eap_message)
  330. (e.g., to implement draft-adrange-eap-network-discovery-07.txt)
  331. * fixed a bug which caused some RSN pre-authentication cases to use
  332. freed memory and potentially crash hostapd
  333. * fixed private key loading for cases where passphrase is not set
  334. * added support for sending TLS alerts and aborting authentication
  335. when receiving a TLS alert
  336. * fixed WPA2 to add PMKSA cache entry when using integrated EAP
  337. authenticator
  338. * fixed PMKSA caching (EAP authentication was not skipped correctly
  339. with the new state machine changes from IEEE 802.1X draft)
  340. * added support for RADIUS over IPv6; own_ip_addr, auth_server_addr,
  341. and acct_server_addr can now be IPv6 addresses (CONFIG_IPV6=y needs
  342. to be added to .config to include IPv6 support); for RADIUS server,
  343. radius_server_ipv6=1 needs to be set in hostapd.conf and addresses
  344. in RADIUS clients file can then use IPv6 format
  345. * added experimental support for EAP-PAX
  346. * replaced hostapd control interface library (hostapd_ctrl.[ch]) with
  347. the same implementation that wpa_supplicant is using (wpa_ctrl.[ch])
  348. 2005-02-12 - v0.3.7 (beginning of 0.3.x stable releases)
  349. 2005-01-23 - v0.3.5
  350. * added support for configuring a forced PEAP version based on the
  351. Phase 1 identity
  352. * fixed PEAPv1 to use tunneled EAP-Success/Failure instead of EAP-TLV
  353. to terminate authentication
  354. * fixed EAP identifier duplicate processing with the new IEEE 802.1X
  355. draft
  356. * clear accounting data in the driver when starting a new accounting
  357. session
  358. * driver_madwifi: filter wireless events based on ifindex to allow more
  359. than one network interface to be used
  360. * fixed WPA message 2/4 processing not to cancel timeout for TimeoutEvt
  361. setting if the packet does not pass MIC verification (e.g., due to
  362. incorrect PSK); previously, message 1/4 was not tried again if an
  363. invalid message 2/4 was received
  364. * fixed reconfiguration of RADIUS client retransmission timer when
  365. adding a new message to the pending list; previously, timer was not
  366. updated at this point and if there was a pending message with long
  367. time for the next retry, the new message needed to wait that long for
  368. its first retry, too
  369. 2005-01-09 - v0.3.4
  370. * added support for configuring multiple allowed EAP types for Phase 2
  371. authentication (EAP-PEAP, EAP-TTLS)
  372. * fixed EAPOL-Start processing to trigger WPA reauthentication
  373. (previously, only EAPOL authentication was done)
  374. 2005-01-02 - v0.3.3
  375. * added support for EAP-PEAP in the integrated EAP authenticator
  376. * added support for EAP-GTC in the integrated EAP authenticator
  377. * added support for configuring list of EAP methods for Phase 1 so that
  378. the integrated EAP authenticator can, e.g., use the wildcard entry
  379. for EAP-TLS and EAP-PEAP
  380. * added support for EAP-TTLS in the integrated EAP authenticator
  381. * added support for EAP-SIM in the integrated EAP authenticator
  382. * added support for using hostapd as a RADIUS authentication server
  383. with the integrated EAP authenticator taking care of EAP
  384. authentication (new hostapd.conf options: radius_server_clients and
  385. radius_server_auth_port); this is not included in default build; use
  386. CONFIG_RADIUS_SERVER=y in .config to include
  387. 2004-12-19 - v0.3.2
  388. * removed 'daemonize' configuration file option since it has not really
  389. been used at all for more than year
  390. * driver_madwifi: fixed group key setup and added get_ssid method
  391. * added support for EAP-MSCHAPv2 in the integrated EAP authenticator
  392. 2004-12-12 - v0.3.1
  393. * added support for integrated EAP-TLS authentication (new hostapd.conf
  394. variables: ca_cert, server_cert, private_key, private_key_passwd);
  395. this enabled dynamic keying (WPA2/WPA/IEEE 802.1X/WEP) without
  396. external RADIUS server
  397. * added support for reading PKCS#12 (PFX) files (as a replacement for
  398. PEM/DER) to get certificate and private key (CONFIG_PKCS12)
  399. 2004-12-05 - v0.3.0 (beginning of 0.3.x development releases)
  400. * added support for Acct-{Input,Output}-Gigawords
  401. * added support for Event-Timestamp (in RADIUS Accounting-Requests)
  402. * added support for RADIUS Authentication Client MIB (RFC2618)
  403. * added support for RADIUS Accounting Client MIB (RFC2620)
  404. * made EAP re-authentication period configurable (eap_reauth_period)
  405. * fixed EAPOL reauthentication to trigger WPA/WPA2 reauthentication
  406. * fixed EAPOL state machine to stop if STA is removed during
  407. eapol_sm_step(); this fixes at least one segfault triggering bug with
  408. IEEE 802.11i pre-authentication
  409. * added support for multiple WPA pre-shared keys (e.g., one for each
  410. client MAC address or keys shared by a group of clients);
  411. new hostapd.conf field wpa_psk_file for setting path to a text file
  412. containing PSKs, see hostapd.wpa_psk for an example
  413. * added support for multiple driver interfaces to allow hostapd to be
  414. used with other drivers
  415. * added wired authenticator driver interface (driver=wired in
  416. hostapd.conf, see wired.conf for example configuration)
  417. * added madwifi driver interface (driver=madwifi in hostapd.conf, see
  418. madwifi.conf for example configuration; Note: include files from
  419. madwifi project is needed for building and a configuration file,
  420. .config, needs to be created in hostapd directory with
  421. CONFIG_DRIVER_MADWIFI=y to include this driver interface in hostapd
  422. build)
  423. * fixed an alignment issue that could cause SHA-1 to fail on some
  424. platforms (e.g., Intel ixp425 with a compiler that does not 32-bit
  425. align variables)
  426. * fixed RADIUS reconnection after an error in sending interim
  427. accounting packets
  428. * added hostapd control interface for external programs and an example
  429. CLI, hostapd_cli (like wpa_cli for wpa_supplicant)
  430. * started adding dot11, dot1x, radius MIBs ('hostapd_cli mib',
  431. 'hostapd_cli sta <addr>')
  432. * finished update from IEEE 802.1X-2001 to IEEE 802.1X-REV (now d11)
  433. * added support for strict GTK rekeying (wpa_strict_rekey in
  434. hostapd.conf)
  435. * updated IAPP to use UDP port 3517 and multicast address 224.0.1.178
  436. (instead of broadcast) for IAPP ADD-notify (moved from draft 3 to
  437. IEEE 802.11F-2003)
  438. * added Prism54 driver interface (driver=prism54 in hostapd.conf;
  439. note: .config needs to be created in hostapd directory with
  440. CONFIG_DRIVER_PRISM54=y to include this driver interface in hostapd
  441. build)
  442. * dual-licensed hostapd (GPLv2 and BSD licenses)
  443. * fixed RADIUS accounting to generate a new session id for cases where
  444. a station reassociates without first being complete deauthenticated
  445. * fixed STA disassociation handler to mark next timeout state to
  446. deauthenticate the station, i.e., skip long wait for inactivity poll
  447. and extra disassociation, if the STA disassociates without
  448. deauthenticating
  449. * added integrated EAP authenticator that can be used instead of
  450. external RADIUS authentication server; currently, only EAP-MD5 is
  451. supported, so this cannot yet be used for key distribution; the EAP
  452. method interface is generic, though, so adding new EAP methods should
  453. be straightforward; new hostapd.conf variables: 'eap_authenticator'
  454. and 'eap_user_file'; this obsoletes "minimal authentication server"
  455. ('minimal_eap' in hostapd.conf) which is now removed
  456. * added support for FreeBSD and driver interface for the BSD net80211
  457. layer (driver=bsd in hostapd.conf and CONFIG_DRIVER_BSD=y in
  458. .config); please note that some of the required kernel mods have not
  459. yet been committed
  460. 2004-07-17 - v0.2.4 (beginning of 0.2.x stable releases)
  461. * fixed some accounting cases where Accounting-Start was sent when
  462. IEEE 802.1X port was being deauthorized
  463. 2004-06-20 - v0.2.3
  464. * modified RADIUS client to re-connect the socket in case of certain
  465. error codes that are generated when a network interface state is
  466. changes (e.g., when IP address changes or the interface is set UP)
  467. * fixed couple of cases where EAPOL state for a station was freed
  468. twice causing a segfault for hostapd
  469. * fixed couple of bugs in processing WPA deauthentication (freed data
  470. was used)
  471. 2004-05-31 - v0.2.2
  472. * fixed WPA/WPA2 group rekeying to use key index correctly (GN/GM)
  473. * fixed group rekeying to send zero TSC in EAPOL-Key messages to fix
  474. cases where STAs dropped multicast frames as replay attacks
  475. * added support for copying RADIUS Attribute 'Class' from
  476. authentication messages into accounting messages
  477. * send canned EAP failure if RADIUS server sends Access-Reject without
  478. EAP message (previously, Supplicant was not notified in this case)
  479. * fixed mixed WPA-PSK and WPA-EAP mode to work with WPA-PSK (i.e., do
  480. not start EAPOL state machines if the STA selected to use WPA-PSK)
  481. 2004-05-06 - v0.2.1
  482. * added WPA and IEEE 802.11i/RSN (WPA2) Authenticator functionality
  483. - based on IEEE 802.11i/D10.0 but modified to interoperate with WPA
  484. (i.e., IEEE 802.11i/D3.0)
  485. - supports WPA-only, RSN-only, and mixed WPA/RSN mode
  486. - both WPA-PSK and WPA-RADIUS/EAP are supported
  487. - PMKSA caching and pre-authentication
  488. - new hostapd.conf variables: wpa, wpa_psk, wpa_passphrase,
  489. wpa_key_mgmt, wpa_pairwise, wpa_group_rekey, wpa_gmk_rekey,
  490. rsn_preauth, rsn_preauth_interfaces
  491. * fixed interim accounting to remove any pending accounting messages
  492. to the STA before sending a new one
  493. 2004-02-15 - v0.2.0
  494. * added support for Acct-Interim-Interval:
  495. - draft-ietf-radius-acct-interim-01.txt
  496. - use Acct-Interim-Interval attribute from Access-Accept if local
  497. 'radius_acct_interim_interval' is not set
  498. - allow different update intervals for each STA
  499. * fixed event loop to call signal handlers only after returning from
  500. the real signal handler
  501. * reset sta->timeout_next after successful association to make sure
  502. that the previously registered inactivity timer will not remove the
  503. STA immediately (e.g., if STA deauthenticates and re-associates
  504. before the timer is triggered).
  505. * added new hostapd.conf variable, nas_identifier, that can be used to
  506. add an optional RADIUS Attribute, NAS-Identifier, into authentication
  507. and accounting messages
  508. * added support for Accounting-On and Accounting-Off messages
  509. * fixed accounting session handling to send Accounting-Start only once
  510. per session and not to send Accounting-Stop if the session was not
  511. initialized properly
  512. * fixed Accounting-Stop statistics in cases where the message was
  513. previously sent after the kernel entry for the STA (and/or IEEE
  514. 802.1X data) was removed
  515. Note:
  516. Older changes up to and including v0.1.0 are included in the ChangeLog
  517. of the Host AP driver.
