  1. ChangeLog for hostapd
  2. ????-??-?? - v0.7.0
  3. * increased hostapd_cli ping interval to 5 seconds and made this
  4. configurable with a new command line options (-G<seconds>)
  5. 2009-01-06 - v0.6.7
  6. * added support for Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)
  7. (hostapd can now be configured to act as an integrated WPS Registrar
  8. and provision credentials for WPS Enrollees using PIN and PBC
  9. methods; external wireless Registrar can configure the AP, but
  10. external WLAN Manager Registrars are not supported); WPS support can
  11. be enabled by adding CONFIG_WPS=y into .config and setting the
  12. runtime configuration variables in hostapd.conf (see WPS section in
  13. the example configuration file); new hostapd_cli commands wps_pin and
  14. wps_pbc are used to configure WPS negotiation; see README-WPS for
  15. more details
  16. * added IEEE 802.11n HT capability configuration (ht_capab)
  17. * added support for generating Country IE based on nl80211 regulatory
  18. information (added if ieee80211d=1 in configuration)
  19. * fixed WEP authentication (both Open System and Shared Key) with
  20. mac80211
  21. * added support for EAP-AKA' (draft-arkko-eap-aka-kdf)
  22. * added support for using driver_test over UDP socket
  23. * changed EAP-GPSK to use the IANA assigned EAP method type 51
  24. * updated management frame protection to use IEEE 802.11w/D7.0
  25. * fixed retransmission of EAP requests if no response is received
  26. 2008-11-23 - v0.6.6
  27. * added a new configuration option, wpa_ptk_rekey, that can be used to
  28. enforce frequent PTK rekeying, e.g., to mitigate some attacks against
  29. TKIP deficiencies
  30. * updated OpenSSL code for EAP-FAST to use an updated version of the
  31. session ticket overriding API that was included into the upstream
  32. OpenSSL 0.9.9 tree on 2008-11-15 (no additional OpenSSL patch is
  33. needed with that version anymore)
  34. * changed channel flags configuration to read the information from
  35. the driver (e.g., via driver_nl80211 when using mac80211) instead of
  36. using hostapd as the source of the regulatory information (i.e.,
  37. information from CRDA is now used with mac80211); this allows 5 GHz
  38. channels to be used with hostapd (if allowed in the current
  39. regulatory domain)
  40. * fixed EAP-TLS message processing for the last TLS message if it is
  41. large enough to require fragmentation (e.g., if a large Session
  42. Ticket data is included)
  43. * fixed listen interval configuration for nl80211 drivers
  44. 2008-11-01 - v0.6.5
  45. * added support for SHA-256 as X.509 certificate digest when using the
  46. internal X.509/TLSv1 implementation
  47. * fixed EAP-FAST PAC-Opaque padding (0.6.4 broke this for some peer
  48. identity lengths)
  49. * fixed internal TLSv1 implementation for abbreviated handshake (used
  50. by EAP-FAST server)
  51. * added support for setting VLAN ID for STAs based on local MAC ACL
  52. (accept_mac_file) as an alternative for RADIUS server-based
  53. configuration
  54. * updated management frame protection to use IEEE 802.11w/D6.0
  55. (adds a new association ping to protect against unauthenticated
  56. authenticate or (re)associate request frames dropping association)
  57. * added support for using SHA256-based stronger key derivation for WPA2
  58. (IEEE 802.11w)
  59. * added new "driver wrapper" for RADIUS-only configuration
  60. (driver=none in hostapd.conf; CONFIG_DRIVER_NONE=y in .config)
  61. * fixed WPA/RSN IE validation to verify that the proto (WPA vs. WPA2)
  62. is enabled in configuration
  63. * changed EAP-FAST configuration to use separate fields for A-ID and
  64. A-ID-Info (eap_fast_a_id_info) to allow A-ID to be set to a fixed
  65. 16-octet len binary value for better interoperability with some peer
  66. implementations; eap_fast_a_id is now configured as a hex string
  67. * driver_nl80211: Updated to match the current Linux mac80211 AP mode
  68. configuration (wireless-testing.git and Linux kernel releases
  69. starting from 2.6.29)
  70. 2008-08-10 - v0.6.4
  71. * added peer identity into EAP-FAST PAC-Opaque and skip Phase 2
  72. Identity Request if identity is already known
  73. * added support for EAP Sequences in EAP-FAST Phase 2
  74. * added support for EAP-TNC (Trusted Network Connect)
  75. (this version implements the EAP-TNC method and EAP-TTLS/EAP-FAST
  76. changes needed to run two methods in sequence (IF-T) and the IF-IMV
  77. and IF-TNCCS interfaces from TNCS)
  78. * added support for optional cryptobinding with PEAPv0
  79. * added fragmentation support for EAP-TNC
  80. * added support for fragmenting EAP-TTLS/PEAP/FAST Phase 2 (tunneled)
  81. data
  82. * added support for opportunistic key caching (OKC)
  83. 2008-02-22 - v0.6.3
  84. * fixed Reassociation Response callback processing when using internal
  85. MLME (driver_{hostap,nl80211,test}.c)
  86. * updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D9.0
  87. * copy optional Proxy-State attributes into RADIUS response when acting
  88. as a RADIUS authentication server
  89. * fixed EAPOL state machine to handle a case in which no response is
  90. received from the RADIUS authentication server; previous version
  91. could have triggered a crash in some cases after a timeout
  92. * fixed EAP-SIM/AKA realm processing to allow decorated usernames to
  93. be used
  94. * added a workaround for EAP-SIM/AKA peers that include incorrect null
  95. termination in the username
  96. * fixed EAP-SIM/AKA protected result indication to include AT_COUNTER
  97. attribute in notification messages only when using fast
  98. reauthentication
  99. * fixed EAP-SIM Start response processing for fast reauthentication
  100. case
  101. * added support for pending EAP processing in EAP-{PEAP,TTLS,FAST}
  102. phase 2 to allow EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA to be used as the Phase 2 method
  103. 2008-01-01 - v0.6.2
  104. * fixed EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA message parser to validate attribute
  105. lengths properly to avoid potential crash caused by invalid messages
  106. * added data structure for storing allocated buffers (struct wpabuf);
  107. this does not affect hostapd usage, but many of the APIs changed
  108. and various interfaces (e.g., EAP) is not compatible with old
  109. versions
  110. * added support for protecting EAP-AKA/Identity messages with
  111. AT_CHECKCODE (optional feature in RFC 4187)
  112. * added support for protected result indication with AT_RESULT_IND for
  113. EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA (eap_sim_aka_result_ind=1)
  114. * added support for configuring EAP-TTLS phase 2 non-EAP methods in
  115. EAP server configuration; previously all four were enabled for every
  116. phase 2 user, now all four are disabled by default and need to be
  117. enabled with new method names TTLS-PAP, TTLS-CHAP, TTLS-MSCHAP,
  118. TTLS-MSCHAPV2
  119. * removed old debug printing mechanism and the related 'debug'
  120. parameter in the configuration file; debug verbosity is now set with
  121. -d (or -dd) command line arguments
  122. * added support for EAP-IKEv2 (draft-tschofenig-eap-ikev2-15.txt);
  123. only shared key/password authentication is supported in this version
  124. 2007-11-24 - v0.6.1
  125. * added experimental, integrated TLSv1 server implementation with the
  126. needed X.509/ASN.1/RSA/bignum processing (this can be enabled by
  127. setting CONFIG_TLS=internal and CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH=y in
  128. .config); this can be useful, e.g., if the target system does not
  129. have a suitable TLS library and a minimal code size is required
  130. * added support for EAP-FAST server method to the integrated EAP
  131. server
  132. * updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
  133. draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-07.txt)
  134. * added a new configuration parameter, rsn_pairwise, to allow different
  135. pairwise cipher suites to be enabled for WPA and RSN/WPA2
  136. (note: if wpa_pairwise differs from rsn_pairwise, the driver will
  137. either need to support this or will have to use the WPA/RSN IEs from
  138. hostapd; currently, the included madwifi and bsd driver interfaces do
  139. not have support for this)
  140. * updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D8.0
  141. 2007-05-28 - v0.6.0
  142. * added experimental IEEE 802.11r/D6.0 support
  143. * updated EAP-SAKE to RFC 4763 and the IANA-allocated EAP type 48
  144. * updated EAP-PSK to use the IANA-allocated EAP type 47
  145. * fixed EAP-PSK bit ordering of the Flags field
  146. * fixed configuration reloading (SIGHUP) to re-initialize WPA PSKs
  147. by reading wpa_psk_file [Bug 181]
  148. * fixed EAP-TTLS AVP parser processing for too short AVP lengths
  149. * fixed IPv6 connection to RADIUS accounting server
  150. * updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
  151. draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-04.txt)
  152. * hlr_auc_gw: read GSM triplet file into memory and rotate through the
  153. entries instead of only using the same three triplets every time
  154. (this does not work properly with tests using multiple clients, but
  155. provides bit better triplet data for testing a single client; anyway,
  156. if a better quality triplets are needed, GSM-Milenage should be used
  157. instead of hardcoded triplet file)
  158. * fixed EAP-MSCHAPv2 server to use a space between S and M parameters
  159. in Success Request [Bug 203]
  160. * added support for sending EAP-AKA Notifications in error cases
  161. * updated to use IEEE 802.11w/D2.0 for management frame protection
  162. (still experimental)
  163. * RADIUS server: added support for processing duplicate messages
  164. (retransmissions from RADIUS client) by replying with the previous
  165. reply
  166. 2006-11-24 - v0.5.6
  167. * added support for configuring and controlling multiple BSSes per
  168. radio interface (bss=<ifname> in hostapd.conf); this is only
  169. available with Devicescape and test driver interfaces
  170. * fixed PMKSA cache update in the end of successful RSN
  171. pre-authentication
  172. * added support for dynamic VLAN configuration (i.e., selecting VLAN-ID
  173. for each STA based on RADIUS Access-Accept attributes); this requires
  174. VLAN support from the kernel driver/802.11 stack and this is
  175. currently only available with Devicescape and test driver interfaces
  176. * driver_madwifi: fixed configuration of unencrypted modes (plaintext
  177. and IEEE 802.1X without WEP)
  178. * removed STAKey handshake since PeerKey handshake has replaced it in
  179. IEEE 802.11ma and there are no known deployments of STAKey
  180. * updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
  181. draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-01.txt)
  182. * added preliminary implementation of IEEE 802.11w/D1.0 (management
  183. frame protection)
  184. (Note: this requires driver support to work properly.)
  185. (Note2: IEEE 802.11w is an unapproved draft and subject to change.)
  186. * hlr_auc_gw: added support for GSM-Milenage (for EAP-SIM)
  187. * hlr_auc_gw: added support for reading per-IMSI Milenage keys and
  188. parameters from a text file to make it possible to implement proper
  189. GSM/UMTS authentication server for multiple SIM/USIM cards using
  190. EAP-SIM/EAP-AKA
  191. * fixed session timeout processing with drivers that do not use
  192. ieee802_11.c (e.g., madwifi)
  193. 2006-08-27 - v0.5.5
  194. * added 'hostapd_cli new_sta <addr>' command for adding a new STA into
  195. hostapd (e.g., to initialize wired network authentication based on an
  196. external signal)
  197. * fixed hostapd to add PMKID KDE into 4-Way Handshake Message 1 when
  198. using WPA2 even if PMKSA caching is not used
  199. * added -P<pid file> argument for hostapd to write the current process
  200. id into a file
  201. * added support for RADIUS Authentication Server MIB (RFC 2619)
  202. 2006-06-20 - v0.5.4
  203. * fixed nt_password_hash build [Bug 144]
  204. * added PeerKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e
  205. direct link setup (DLS) to replace STAKey handshake
  206. * added support for EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK,
  207. draft-clancy-emu-eap-shared-secret-00.txt)
  208. * fixed a segmentation fault when RSN pre-authentication was completed
  209. successfully [Bug 152]
  210. 2006-04-27 - v0.5.3
  211. * do not build nt_password_hash and hlr_auc_gw by default to avoid
  212. requiring a TLS library for a successful build; these programs can be
  213. build with 'make nt_password_hash' and 'make hlr_auc_gw'
  214. * added a new configuration option, eapol_version, that can be used to
  215. set EAPOL version to 1 (default is 2) to work around broken client
  216. implementations that drop EAPOL frames which use version number 2
  217. [Bug 89]
  218. * added support for EAP-SAKE (no EAP method number allocated yet, so
  219. this is using the same experimental type 255 as EAP-PSK)
  220. * fixed EAP-MSCHAPv2 message length validation
  221. 2006-03-19 - v0.5.2
  222. * fixed stdarg use in hostapd_logger(): if both stdout and syslog
  223. logging was enabled, hostapd could trigger a segmentation fault in
  224. vsyslog on some CPU -- C library combinations
  225. * moved HLR/AuC gateway implementation for EAP-SIM/AKA into an external
  226. program to make it easier to use for implementing real SS7 gateway;
  227. eap_sim_db is not anymore used as a file name for GSM authentication
  228. triplets; instead, it is path to UNIX domain socket that will be used
  229. to communicate with the external gateway program (e.g., hlr_auc_gw)
  230. * added example HLR/AuC gateway implementation, hlr_auc_gw, that uses
  231. local information (GSM authentication triplets from a text file and
  232. hardcoded AKA authentication data); this can be used to test EAP-SIM
  233. and EAP-AKA
  234. * added Milenage algorithm (example 3GPP AKA algorithm) to hlr_auc_gw
  235. to make it possible to test EAP-AKA with real USIM cards (this is
  236. disabled by default; define AKA_USE_MILENAGE when building hlr_auc_gw
  237. to enable this)
  238. * driver_madwifi: added support for getting station RSN IE from
  239. madwifi-ng svn r1453 and newer; this fixes RSN that was apparently
  240. broken with earlier change (r1357) in the driver
  241. * changed EAP method registration to use a dynamic list of methods
  242. instead of a static list generated at build time
  243. * fixed WPA message 3/4 not to encrypt Key Data field (WPA IE)
  244. [Bug 125]
  245. * added ap_max_inactivity configuration parameter
  246. 2006-01-29 - v0.5.1
  247. * driver_test: added better support for multiple APs and STAs by using
  248. a directory with sockets that include MAC address for each device in
  249. the name (test_socket=DIR:/tmp/test)
  250. * added support for EAP expanded type (vendor specific EAP methods)
  251. 2005-12-18 - v0.5.0 (beginning of 0.5.x development releases)
  252. * added experimental STAKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e
  253. direct link setup (DLS); note: this is disabled by default in both
  254. build and runtime configuration (can be enabled with CONFIG_STAKEY=y
  255. and stakey=1)
  256. * added support for EAP methods to use callbacks to external programs
  257. by buffering a pending request and processing it after the EAP method
  258. is ready to continue
  259. * improved EAP-SIM database interface to allow external request to GSM
  260. HLR/AuC without blocking hostapd process
  261. * added support for using EAP-SIM pseudonyms and fast re-authentication
  262. * added support for EAP-AKA in the integrated EAP authenticator
  263. * added support for matching EAP identity prefixes (e.g., "1"*) in EAP
  264. user database to allow EAP-SIM/AKA selection without extra roundtrip
  265. for EAP-Nak negotiation
  266. * added support for storing EAP user password as NtPasswordHash instead
  267. of plaintext password when using MSCHAP or MSCHAPv2 for
  268. authentication (hash:<16-octet hex value>); added nt_password_hash
  269. tool for hashing password to generate NtPasswordHash
  270. 2005-11-20 - v0.4.7 (beginning of 0.4.x stable releases)
  271. * driver_wired: fixed EAPOL sending to optionally use PAE group address
  272. as the destination instead of supplicant MAC address; this is
  273. disabled by default, but should be enabled with use_pae_group_addr=1
  274. in configuration file if the wired interface is used by only one
  275. device at the time (common switch configuration)
  276. * driver_madwifi: configure driver to use TKIP countermeasures in order
  277. to get correct behavior (IEEE 802.11 association failing; previously,
  278. association succeeded, but hostpad forced disassociation immediately)
  279. * driver_madwifi: added support for madwifi-ng
  280. 2005-10-27 - v0.4.6
  281. * added support for replacing user identity from EAP with RADIUS
  282. User-Name attribute from Access-Accept message, if that is included,
  283. for the RADIUS accounting messages (e.g., for EAP-PEAP/TTLS to get
  284. tunneled identity into accounting messages when the RADIUS server
  285. does not support better way of doing this with Class attribute)
  286. * driver_madwifi: fixed EAPOL packet receive for configuration where
  287. ath# is part of a bridge interface
  288. * added a configuration file and log analyzer script for logwatch
  289. * fixed EAPOL state machine step function to process all state
  290. transitions before processing new events; this resolves a race
  291. condition in which EAPOL-Start message could trigger hostapd to send
  292. two EAP-Response/Identity frames to the authentication server
  293. 2005-09-25 - v0.4.5
  294. * added client CA list to the TLS certificate request in order to make
  295. it easier for the client to select which certificate to use
  296. * added experimental support for EAP-PSK
  297. * added support for WE-19 (hostap, madwifi)
  298. 2005-08-21 - v0.4.4
  299. * fixed build without CONFIG_RSN_PREAUTH
  300. * fixed FreeBSD build
  301. 2005-06-26 - v0.4.3
  302. * fixed PMKSA caching to copy User-Name and Class attributes so that
  303. RADIUS accounting gets correct information
  304. * start RADIUS accounting only after successful completion of WPA
  305. 4-Way Handshake if WPA-PSK is used
  306. * fixed PMKSA caching for the case where STA (re)associates without
  307. first disassociating
  308. 2005-06-12 - v0.4.2
  309. * EAP-PAX is now registered as EAP type 46
  310. * fixed EAP-PAX MAC calculation
  311. * fixed EAP-PAX CK and ICK key derivation
  312. * renamed eap_authenticator configuration variable to eap_server to
  313. better match with RFC 3748 (EAP) terminology
  314. * driver_test: added support for testing hostapd with wpa_supplicant
  315. by using test driver interface without any kernel drivers or network
  316. cards
  317. 2005-05-22 - v0.4.1
  318. * fixed RADIUS server initialization when only auth or acct server
  319. is configured and the other one is left empty
  320. * driver_madwifi: added support for RADIUS accounting
  321. * driver_madwifi: added preliminary support for compiling against 'BSD'
  322. branch of madwifi CVS tree
  323. * driver_madwifi: fixed pairwise key removal to allow WPA reauth
  324. without disassociation
  325. * added support for reading additional certificates from PKCS#12 files
  326. and adding them to the certificate chain
  327. * fixed RADIUS Class attribute processing to only use Access-Accept
  328. packets to update Class; previously, other RADIUS authentication
  329. packets could have cleared Class attribute
  330. * added support for more than one Class attribute in RADIUS packets
  331. * added support for verifying certificate revocation list (CRL) when
  332. using integrated EAP authenticator for EAP-TLS; new hostapd.conf
  333. options 'check_crl'; CRL must be included in the ca_cert file for now
  334. 2005-04-25 - v0.4.0 (beginning of 0.4.x development releases)
  335. * added support for including network information into
  336. EAP-Request/Identity message (ASCII-0 (nul) in eap_message)
  337. (e.g., to implement draft-adrange-eap-network-discovery-07.txt)
  338. * fixed a bug which caused some RSN pre-authentication cases to use
  339. freed memory and potentially crash hostapd
  340. * fixed private key loading for cases where passphrase is not set
  341. * added support for sending TLS alerts and aborting authentication
  342. when receiving a TLS alert
  343. * fixed WPA2 to add PMKSA cache entry when using integrated EAP
  344. authenticator
  345. * fixed PMKSA caching (EAP authentication was not skipped correctly
  346. with the new state machine changes from IEEE 802.1X draft)
  347. * added support for RADIUS over IPv6; own_ip_addr, auth_server_addr,
  348. and acct_server_addr can now be IPv6 addresses (CONFIG_IPV6=y needs
  349. to be added to .config to include IPv6 support); for RADIUS server,
  350. radius_server_ipv6=1 needs to be set in hostapd.conf and addresses
  351. in RADIUS clients file can then use IPv6 format
  352. * added experimental support for EAP-PAX
  353. * replaced hostapd control interface library (hostapd_ctrl.[ch]) with
  354. the same implementation that wpa_supplicant is using (wpa_ctrl.[ch])
  355. 2005-02-12 - v0.3.7 (beginning of 0.3.x stable releases)
  356. 2005-01-23 - v0.3.5
  357. * added support for configuring a forced PEAP version based on the
  358. Phase 1 identity
  359. * fixed PEAPv1 to use tunneled EAP-Success/Failure instead of EAP-TLV
  360. to terminate authentication
  361. * fixed EAP identifier duplicate processing with the new IEEE 802.1X
  362. draft
  363. * clear accounting data in the driver when starting a new accounting
  364. session
  365. * driver_madwifi: filter wireless events based on ifindex to allow more
  366. than one network interface to be used
  367. * fixed WPA message 2/4 processing not to cancel timeout for TimeoutEvt
  368. setting if the packet does not pass MIC verification (e.g., due to
  369. incorrect PSK); previously, message 1/4 was not tried again if an
  370. invalid message 2/4 was received
  371. * fixed reconfiguration of RADIUS client retransmission timer when
  372. adding a new message to the pending list; previously, timer was not
  373. updated at this point and if there was a pending message with long
  374. time for the next retry, the new message needed to wait that long for
  375. its first retry, too
  376. 2005-01-09 - v0.3.4
  377. * added support for configuring multiple allowed EAP types for Phase 2
  378. authentication (EAP-PEAP, EAP-TTLS)
  379. * fixed EAPOL-Start processing to trigger WPA reauthentication
  380. (previously, only EAPOL authentication was done)
  381. 2005-01-02 - v0.3.3
  382. * added support for EAP-PEAP in the integrated EAP authenticator
  383. * added support for EAP-GTC in the integrated EAP authenticator
  384. * added support for configuring list of EAP methods for Phase 1 so that
  385. the integrated EAP authenticator can, e.g., use the wildcard entry
  386. for EAP-TLS and EAP-PEAP
  387. * added support for EAP-TTLS in the integrated EAP authenticator
  388. * added support for EAP-SIM in the integrated EAP authenticator
  389. * added support for using hostapd as a RADIUS authentication server
  390. with the integrated EAP authenticator taking care of EAP
  391. authentication (new hostapd.conf options: radius_server_clients and
  392. radius_server_auth_port); this is not included in default build; use
  393. CONFIG_RADIUS_SERVER=y in .config to include
  394. 2004-12-19 - v0.3.2
  395. * removed 'daemonize' configuration file option since it has not really
  396. been used at all for more than year
  397. * driver_madwifi: fixed group key setup and added get_ssid method
  398. * added support for EAP-MSCHAPv2 in the integrated EAP authenticator
  399. 2004-12-12 - v0.3.1
  400. * added support for integrated EAP-TLS authentication (new hostapd.conf
  401. variables: ca_cert, server_cert, private_key, private_key_passwd);
  402. this enabled dynamic keying (WPA2/WPA/IEEE 802.1X/WEP) without
  403. external RADIUS server
  404. * added support for reading PKCS#12 (PFX) files (as a replacement for
  405. PEM/DER) to get certificate and private key (CONFIG_PKCS12)
  406. 2004-12-05 - v0.3.0 (beginning of 0.3.x development releases)
  407. * added support for Acct-{Input,Output}-Gigawords
  408. * added support for Event-Timestamp (in RADIUS Accounting-Requests)
  409. * added support for RADIUS Authentication Client MIB (RFC2618)
  410. * added support for RADIUS Accounting Client MIB (RFC2620)
  411. * made EAP re-authentication period configurable (eap_reauth_period)
  412. * fixed EAPOL reauthentication to trigger WPA/WPA2 reauthentication
  413. * fixed EAPOL state machine to stop if STA is removed during
  414. eapol_sm_step(); this fixes at least one segfault triggering bug with
  415. IEEE 802.11i pre-authentication
  416. * added support for multiple WPA pre-shared keys (e.g., one for each
  417. client MAC address or keys shared by a group of clients);
  418. new hostapd.conf field wpa_psk_file for setting path to a text file
  419. containing PSKs, see hostapd.wpa_psk for an example
  420. * added support for multiple driver interfaces to allow hostapd to be
  421. used with other drivers
  422. * added wired authenticator driver interface (driver=wired in
  423. hostapd.conf, see wired.conf for example configuration)
  424. * added madwifi driver interface (driver=madwifi in hostapd.conf, see
  425. madwifi.conf for example configuration; Note: include files from
  426. madwifi project is needed for building and a configuration file,
  427. .config, needs to be created in hostapd directory with
  428. CONFIG_DRIVER_MADWIFI=y to include this driver interface in hostapd
  429. build)
  430. * fixed an alignment issue that could cause SHA-1 to fail on some
  431. platforms (e.g., Intel ixp425 with a compiler that does not 32-bit
  432. align variables)
  433. * fixed RADIUS reconnection after an error in sending interim
  434. accounting packets
  435. * added hostapd control interface for external programs and an example
  436. CLI, hostapd_cli (like wpa_cli for wpa_supplicant)
  437. * started adding dot11, dot1x, radius MIBs ('hostapd_cli mib',
  438. 'hostapd_cli sta <addr>')
  439. * finished update from IEEE 802.1X-2001 to IEEE 802.1X-REV (now d11)
  440. * added support for strict GTK rekeying (wpa_strict_rekey in
  441. hostapd.conf)
  442. * updated IAPP to use UDP port 3517 and multicast address 224.0.1.178
  443. (instead of broadcast) for IAPP ADD-notify (moved from draft 3 to
  444. IEEE 802.11F-2003)
  445. * added Prism54 driver interface (driver=prism54 in hostapd.conf;
  446. note: .config needs to be created in hostapd directory with
  447. CONFIG_DRIVER_PRISM54=y to include this driver interface in hostapd
  448. build)
  449. * dual-licensed hostapd (GPLv2 and BSD licenses)
  450. * fixed RADIUS accounting to generate a new session id for cases where
  451. a station reassociates without first being complete deauthenticated
  452. * fixed STA disassociation handler to mark next timeout state to
  453. deauthenticate the station, i.e., skip long wait for inactivity poll
  454. and extra disassociation, if the STA disassociates without
  455. deauthenticating
  456. * added integrated EAP authenticator that can be used instead of
  457. external RADIUS authentication server; currently, only EAP-MD5 is
  458. supported, so this cannot yet be used for key distribution; the EAP
  459. method interface is generic, though, so adding new EAP methods should
  460. be straightforward; new hostapd.conf variables: 'eap_authenticator'
  461. and 'eap_user_file'; this obsoletes "minimal authentication server"
  462. ('minimal_eap' in hostapd.conf) which is now removed
  463. * added support for FreeBSD and driver interface for the BSD net80211
  464. layer (driver=bsd in hostapd.conf and CONFIG_DRIVER_BSD=y in
  465. .config); please note that some of the required kernel mods have not
  466. yet been committed
  467. 2004-07-17 - v0.2.4 (beginning of 0.2.x stable releases)
  468. * fixed some accounting cases where Accounting-Start was sent when
  469. IEEE 802.1X port was being deauthorized
  470. 2004-06-20 - v0.2.3
  471. * modified RADIUS client to re-connect the socket in case of certain
  472. error codes that are generated when a network interface state is
  473. changes (e.g., when IP address changes or the interface is set UP)
  474. * fixed couple of cases where EAPOL state for a station was freed
  475. twice causing a segfault for hostapd
  476. * fixed couple of bugs in processing WPA deauthentication (freed data
  477. was used)
  478. 2004-05-31 - v0.2.2
  479. * fixed WPA/WPA2 group rekeying to use key index correctly (GN/GM)
  480. * fixed group rekeying to send zero TSC in EAPOL-Key messages to fix
  481. cases where STAs dropped multicast frames as replay attacks
  482. * added support for copying RADIUS Attribute 'Class' from
  483. authentication messages into accounting messages
  484. * send canned EAP failure if RADIUS server sends Access-Reject without
  485. EAP message (previously, Supplicant was not notified in this case)
  486. * fixed mixed WPA-PSK and WPA-EAP mode to work with WPA-PSK (i.e., do
  487. not start EAPOL state machines if the STA selected to use WPA-PSK)
  488. 2004-05-06 - v0.2.1
  489. * added WPA and IEEE 802.11i/RSN (WPA2) Authenticator functionality
  490. - based on IEEE 802.11i/D10.0 but modified to interoperate with WPA
  491. (i.e., IEEE 802.11i/D3.0)
  492. - supports WPA-only, RSN-only, and mixed WPA/RSN mode
  493. - both WPA-PSK and WPA-RADIUS/EAP are supported
  494. - PMKSA caching and pre-authentication
  495. - new hostapd.conf variables: wpa, wpa_psk, wpa_passphrase,
  496. wpa_key_mgmt, wpa_pairwise, wpa_group_rekey, wpa_gmk_rekey,
  497. rsn_preauth, rsn_preauth_interfaces
  498. * fixed interim accounting to remove any pending accounting messages
  499. to the STA before sending a new one
  500. 2004-02-15 - v0.2.0
  501. * added support for Acct-Interim-Interval:
  502. - draft-ietf-radius-acct-interim-01.txt
  503. - use Acct-Interim-Interval attribute from Access-Accept if local
  504. 'radius_acct_interim_interval' is not set
  505. - allow different update intervals for each STA
  506. * fixed event loop to call signal handlers only after returning from
  507. the real signal handler
  508. * reset sta->timeout_next after successful association to make sure
  509. that the previously registered inactivity timer will not remove the
  510. STA immediately (e.g., if STA deauthenticates and re-associates
  511. before the timer is triggered).
  512. * added new hostapd.conf variable, nas_identifier, that can be used to
  513. add an optional RADIUS Attribute, NAS-Identifier, into authentication
  514. and accounting messages
  515. * added support for Accounting-On and Accounting-Off messages
  516. * fixed accounting session handling to send Accounting-Start only once
  517. per session and not to send Accounting-Stop if the session was not
  518. initialized properly
  519. * fixed Accounting-Stop statistics in cases where the message was
  520. previously sent after the kernel entry for the STA (and/or IEEE
  521. 802.1X data) was removed
  522. Note:
  523. Older changes up to and including v0.1.0 are included in the ChangeLog
  524. of the Host AP driver.
