  864. the signal strength with the current AP; this improves roaming within
  865. ESS quite a bit, e.g., with bgscan="simple:30:-45:300" in the network
  866. configuration block to request background scans less frequently when
  867. signal strength remains good and to automatically trigger background
  868. scans whenever signal strength drops noticeably
  869. (this is currently only available with nl80211)
  870. * add BSSID and reason code (if available) to disconnect event messages
  871. * wpa_gui-qt4: more complete support for translating the GUI with
  872. linguist and add German translation
  873. * fix DH padding with internal crypto code (mainly, for WPS)
  874. * do not trigger initial scan automatically anymore if there are no
  875. enabled networks
  876. 2010-01-16 - v0.7.1
  877. * cleaned up driver wrapper API (struct wpa_driver_ops); the new API
  878. is not fully backwards compatible, so out-of-tree driver wrappers
  879. will need modifications
  880. * cleaned up various module interfaces
  881. * merge hostapd and wpa_supplicant developers' documentation into a
  882. single document
  883. * nl80211: use explicit deauthentication to clear cfg80211 state to
  884. avoid issues when roaming between APs
  885. * dbus: major design changes in the new D-Bus API
  886. (fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1)
  887. * nl80211: added support for IBSS networks
  888. * added internal debugging mechanism with backtrace support and memory
  889. allocation/freeing validation, etc. tests (CONFIG_WPA_TRACE=y)
  890. * added WPS ER unsubscription command to more cleanly unregister from
  891. receiving UPnP events when ER is terminated
  892. * cleaned up AP mode operations to avoid need for virtual driver_ops
  893. wrapper
  894. * added BSS table to maintain more complete scan result information
  895. over multiple scans (that may include only partial results)
  896. * wpa_gui-qt4: update Peers dialog information more dynamically while
  897. the dialog is kept open
  898. * fixed PKCS#12 use with OpenSSL 1.0.0
  899. * driver_wext: Added cfg80211-specific optimization to avoid some
  900. unnecessary scans and to speed up association
  901. 2009-11-21 - v0.7.0
  902. * increased wpa_cli ping interval to 5 seconds and made this
  903. configurable with a new command line options (-G<seconds>)
  904. * fixed scan buffer processing with WEXT to handle up to 65535
  905. byte result buffer (previously, limited to 32768 bytes)
  906. * allow multiple driver wrappers to be specified on command line
  907. (e.g., -Dnl80211,wext); the first one that is able to initialize the
  908. interface will be used
  909. * added support for multiple SSIDs per scan request to optimize
  910. scan_ssid=1 operations in ap_scan=1 mode (i.e., search for hidden
  911. SSIDs); this requires driver support and can currently be used only
  912. with nl80211
  913. * added support for WPS USBA out-of-band mechanism with USB Flash
  914. Drives (UFD) (CONFIG_WPS_UFD=y)
  915. * driver_ndis: add PAE group address to the multicast address list to
  916. fix wired IEEE 802.1X authentication
  917. * fixed IEEE 802.11r key derivation function to match with the standard
  918. (note: this breaks interoperability with previous version) [Bug 303]
  919. * added better support for drivers that allow separate authentication
  920. and association commands (e.g., mac80211-based Linux drivers with
  921. nl80211; SME in wpa_supplicant); this allows over-the-air FT protocol
  922. to be used (IEEE 802.11r)
  923. * fixed SHA-256 based key derivation function to match with the
  924. standard when using CCMP (for IEEE 802.11r and IEEE 802.11w)
  925. (note: this breaks interoperability with previous version) [Bug 307]
  926. * use shared driver wrapper files with hostapd
  927. * added AP mode functionality (CONFIG_AP=y) with mode=2 in the network
  928. block; this can be used for open and WPA2-Personal networks
  929. (optionally, with WPS); this links in parts of hostapd functionality
  930. into wpa_supplicant
  931. * wpa_gui-qt4: added new Peers dialog to show information about peers
  932. (other devices, including APs and stations, etc. in the neighborhood)
  933. * added support for WPS External Registrar functionality (configure APs
  934. and enroll new devices); can be used with wpa_gui-qt4 Peers dialog
  935. and wpa_cli commands wps_er_start, wps_er_stop, wps_er_pin,
  936. wps_er_pbc, wps_er_learn
  937. (this can also be used with a new 'none' driver wrapper if no
  938. wireless device or IEEE 802.1X on wired is needed)
  939. * driver_nl80211: multiple updates to provide support for new Linux
  940. nl80211/mac80211 functionality
  941. * updated management frame protection to use IEEE Std 802.11w-2009
  942. * fixed number of small WPS issues and added workarounds to
  943. interoperate with common deployed broken implementations
  944. * added support for NFC out-of-band mechanism with WPS
  945. * driver_ndis: fixed wired IEEE 802.1X authentication with PAE group
  946. address frames
  947. * added preliminary support for IEEE 802.11r RIC processing
  948. * added support for specifying subset of enabled frequencies to scan
  949. (scan_freq option in the network configuration block); this can speed
  950. up scanning process considerably if it is known that only a small
  951. subset of channels is actually used in the network (this is currently
  952. supported only with -Dnl80211)
  953. * added a workaround for race condition between receiving the
  954. association event and the following EAPOL-Key
  955. * added background scan and roaming infrastructure to allow
  956. network-specific optimizations to be used to improve roaming within
  957. an ESS (same SSID)
  958. * added new DBus interface (fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1)
  959. 2009-01-06 - v0.6.7
  960. * added support for Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)
  961. (wpa_supplicant can now be configured to act as a WPS Enrollee to
  962. enroll credentials for a network using PIN and PBC methods; in
  963. addition, wpa_supplicant can act as a wireless WPS Registrar to
  964. configure an AP); WPS support can be enabled by adding CONFIG_WPS=y
  965. into .config and setting the runtime configuration variables in
  966. wpa_supplicant.conf (see WPS section in the example configuration
  967. file); new wpa_cli commands wps_pin, wps_pbc, and wps_reg are used to
  968. manage WPS negotiation; see README-WPS for more details
  969. * added support for EAP-AKA' (draft-arkko-eap-aka-kdf)
  970. * added support for using driver_test over UDP socket
  971. * fixed PEAPv0 Cryptobinding interoperability issue with Windows Server
  972. 2008 NPS; optional cryptobinding is now enabled (again) by default
  973. * fixed PSK editing in wpa_gui
  974. * changed EAP-GPSK to use the IANA assigned EAP method type 51
  975. * added a Windows installer that includes WinPcap and all the needed
  976. DLLs; in addition, it set up the registry automatically so that user
  977. will only need start wpa_gui to get prompted to start the wpasvc
  978. servide and add a new interface if needed through wpa_gui dialog
  979. * updated management frame protection to use IEEE 802.11w/D7.0
  980. 2008-11-23 - v0.6.6
  981. * added Milenage SIM/USIM emulator for EAP-SIM/EAP-AKA
  982. (can be used to simulate test SIM/USIM card with a known private key;
  983. enable with CONFIG_SIM_SIMULATOR=y/CONFIG_USIM_SIMULATOR=y in .config
  984. and password="Ki:OPc"/password="Ki:OPc:SQN" in network configuration)
  985. * added a new network configuration option, wpa_ptk_rekey, that can be
  986. used to enforce frequent PTK rekeying, e.g., to mitigate some attacks
  987. against TKIP deficiencies
  988. * added an optional mitigation mechanism for certain attacks against
  989. TKIP by delaying Michael MIC error reports by a random amount of time
  990. between 0 and 60 seconds; this can be enabled with a build option
  991. CONFIG_DELAYED_MIC_ERROR_REPORT=y in .config
  992. * fixed EAP-AKA to use RES Length field in AT_RES as length in bits,
  993. not bytes
  994. * updated OpenSSL code for EAP-FAST to use an updated version of the
  995. session ticket overriding API that was included into the upstream
  996. OpenSSL 0.9.9 tree on 2008-11-15 (no additional OpenSSL patch is
  997. needed with that version anymore)
  998. * updated userspace MLME instructions to match with the current Linux
  999. mac80211 implementation; please also note that this can only be used
  1000. with driver_nl80211.c (the old code from driver_wext.c was removed)
  1001. * added support (Linux only) for RoboSwitch chipsets (often found in
  1002. consumer grade routers); driver interface 'roboswitch'
  1003. * fixed canceling of PMKSA caching when using drivers that generate
  1004. RSN IE and refuse to drop PMKIDs that wpa_supplicant does not know
  1005. about
  1006. 2008-11-01 - v0.6.5
  1007. * added support for SHA-256 as X.509 certificate digest when using the
  1008. internal X.509/TLSv1 implementation
  1009. * updated management frame protection to use IEEE 802.11w/D6.0
  1010. * added support for using SHA256-based stronger key derivation for WPA2
  1011. (IEEE 802.11w)
  1012. * fixed FT (IEEE 802.11r) authentication after a failed association to
  1013. use correct FTIE
  1014. * added support for configuring Phase 2 (inner/tunneled) authentication
  1015. method with wpa_gui-qt4
  1016. 2008-08-10 - v0.6.4
  1017. * added support for EAP Sequences in EAP-FAST Phase 2
  1018. * added support for using TNC with EAP-FAST
  1019. * added driver_ps3 for the PS3 Linux wireless driver
  1020. * added support for optional cryptobinding with PEAPv0
  1021. * fixed the OpenSSL patches (0.9.8g and 0.9.9) for EAP-FAST to
  1022. allow fallback to full handshake if server rejects PAC-Opaque
  1023. * added fragmentation support for EAP-TNC
  1024. * added support for parsing PKCS #8 formatted private keys into the
  1025. internal TLS implementation (both PKCS #1 RSA key and PKCS #8
  1026. encapsulated RSA key can now be used)
  1027. * added option of using faster, but larger, routines in the internal
  1028. LibTomMath (for internal TLS implementation) to speed up DH and RSA
  1029. calculations (CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH_FAST=y)
  1030. * fixed race condition between disassociation event and group key
  1031. handshake to avoid getting stuck in incorrect state [Bug 261]
  1032. * fixed opportunistic key caching (proactive_key_caching)
  1033. 2008-02-22 - v0.6.3
  1034. * removed 'nai' and 'eappsk' network configuration variables that were
  1035. previously used for configuring user identity and key for EAP-PSK,
  1036. EAP-PAX, EAP-SAKE, and EAP-GPSK. 'identity' field is now used as the
  1037. replacement for 'nai' (if old configuration used a separate
  1038. 'identity' value, that would now be configured as
  1039. 'anonymous_identity'). 'password' field is now used as the
  1040. replacement for 'eappsk' (it can also be set using hexstring to
  1041. present random binary data)
  1042. * removed '-w' command line parameter (wait for interface to be added,
  1043. if needed); cleaner way of handling this functionality is to use an
  1044. external mechanism (e.g., hotplug scripts) that start wpa_supplicant
  1045. when an interface is added
  1046. * updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D9.0
  1047. * added ctrl_iface monitor event (CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-RESULTS) for
  1048. indicating when new scan results become available
  1049. * added new ctrl_iface command, BSS, to allow scan results to be
  1050. fetched without hitting the message size limits (this command
  1051. can be used to iterate through the scan results one BSS at the time)
  1052. * fixed EAP-SIM not to include AT_NONCE_MT and AT_SELECTED_VERSION
  1053. attributes in EAP-SIM Start/Response when using fast reauthentication
  1054. * fixed EAPOL not to end up in infinite loop when processing dynamic
  1055. WEP keys with IEEE 802.1X
  1056. * fixed problems in getting NDIS events from WMI on Windows 2000
  1057. 2008-01-01 - v0.6.2
  1058. * added support for Makefile builds to include debug-log-to-a-file
  1059. functionality (CONFIG_DEBUG_FILE=y and -f<path> on command line)
  1060. * fixed EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA message parser to validate attribute
  1061. lengths properly to avoid potential crash caused by invalid messages
  1062. * added data structure for storing allocated buffers (struct wpabuf);
  1063. this does not affect wpa_supplicant usage, but many of the APIs
  1064. changed and various interfaces (e.g., EAP) is not compatible with old
  1065. versions
  1066. * added support for protecting EAP-AKA/Identity messages with
  1067. AT_CHECKCODE (optional feature in RFC 4187)
  1068. * added support for protected result indication with AT_RESULT_IND for
  1069. EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA (phase1="result_ind=1")
  1070. * added driver_wext workaround for race condition between scanning and
  1071. association with drivers that take very long time to scan all
  1072. channels (e.g., madwifi with dual-band cards); wpa_supplicant is now
  1073. using a longer hardcoded timeout for the scan if the driver supports
  1074. notifications for scan completion (SIOCGIWSCAN event); this helps,
  1075. e.g., in cases where wpa_supplicant and madwifi driver ended up in
  1076. loop where the driver did not even try to associate
  1077. * stop EAPOL timer tick when no timers are in use in order to reduce
  1078. power consumption (no need to wake up the process once per second)
  1079. [Bug 237]
  1080. * added support for privilege separation (run only minimal part of
  1081. wpa_supplicant functionality as root and rest as unprivileged,
  1082. non-root process); see 'Privilege separation' in README for details;
  1083. this is disabled by default and can be enabled with CONFIG_PRIVSEP=y
  1084. in .config
  1085. * changed scan results data structure to include all information
  1086. elements to make it easier to support new IEs; old get_scan_result()
  1087. driver_ops is still supported for backwards compatibility (results
  1088. are converted internally to the new format), but all drivers should
  1089. start using the new get_scan_results2() to make them more likely to
  1090. work with new features
  1091. * Qt4 version of wpa_gui (wpa_gui-qt4 subdirectory) is now native Qt4
  1092. application, i.e., it does not require Qt3Support anymore; Windows
  1093. binary of wpa_gui.exe is now from this directory and only requires
  1094. QtCore4.dll and QtGui4.dll libraries
  1095. * updated Windows binary build to use Qt 4.3.3 and made Qt DLLs
  1096. available as a separate package to make wpa_gui installation easier:
  1097. http://w1.fi/wpa_supplicant/qt4/wpa_gui-qt433-windows-dll.zip
  1098. * added support for EAP-IKEv2 (draft-tschofenig-eap-ikev2-15.txt);
  1099. only shared key/password authentication is supported in this version
  1100. 2007-11-24 - v0.6.1
  1101. * added support for configuring password as NtPasswordHash
  1102. (16-byte MD4 hash of password) in hash:<32 hex digits> format
  1103. * added support for fallback from abbreviated TLS handshake to
  1104. full handshake when using EAP-FAST (e.g., due to an expired
  1105. PAC-Opaque)
  1106. * updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
  1107. draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-07.txt)
  1108. * added support for drivers that take care of RSN 4-way handshake
  1109. internally (WPA_DRIVER_FLAGS_4WAY_HANDSHAKE in get_capa flags and
  1110. WPA_ALG_PMK in set_key)
  1111. * added an experimental port for Mac OS X (CONFIG_DRIVER_OSX=y in
  1112. .config); this version supports only ap_scan=2 mode and allow the
  1113. driver to take care of the 4-way handshake
  1114. * fixed a buffer overflow in parsing TSF from scan results when using
  1115. driver_wext.c with a driver that includes the TSF (e.g., iwl4965)
  1116. [Bug 232]
  1117. * updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D8.0
  1118. * fixed an integer overflow issue in the ASN.1 parser used by the
  1119. (experimental) internal TLS implementation to avoid a potential
  1120. buffer read overflow
  1121. * fixed a race condition with -W option (wait for a control interface
  1122. monitor before starting) that could have caused the first messages to
  1123. be lost
  1124. * added support for processing TNCC-TNCS-Messages to report
  1125. recommendation (allow/none/isolate) when using TNC [Bug 243]
  1126. 2007-05-28 - v0.6.0
  1127. * added network configuration parameter 'frequency' for setting
  1128. initial channel for IBSS (adhoc) networks
  1129. * added experimental IEEE 802.11r/D6.0 support
  1130. * updated EAP-SAKE to RFC 4763 and the IANA-allocated EAP type 48
  1131. * updated EAP-PSK to use the IANA-allocated EAP type 47
  1132. * fixed EAP-PAX key derivation
  1133. * fixed EAP-PSK bit ordering of the Flags field
  1134. * fixed EAP-PEAP/TTLS/FAST to use the correct EAP identifier in
  1135. tunnelled identity request (previously, the identifier from the outer
  1136. method was used, not the tunnelled identifier which could be
  1137. different)
  1138. * added support for fragmentation of outer TLS packets during Phase 2
  1139. of EAP-PEAP/TTLS/FAST
  1140. * fixed EAP-TTLS AVP parser processing for too short AVP lengths
  1141. * added support for EAP-FAST authentication with inner methods that
  1142. generate MSK (e.g., EAP-MSCHAPv2 that was previously only supported
  1143. for PAC provisioning)
  1144. * added support for authenticated EAP-FAST provisioning
  1145. * added support for configuring maximum number of EAP-FAST PACs to
  1146. store in a PAC list (fast_max_pac_list_len=<max> in phase1 string)
  1147. * added support for storing EAP-FAST PACs in binary format
  1148. (fast_pac_format=binary in phase1 string)
  1149. * fixed dbus ctrl_iface to validate message interface before
  1150. dispatching to avoid a possible segfault [Bug 190]
  1151. * fixed PeerKey key derivation to use the correct PRF label
  1152. * updated Windows binary build to link against OpenSSL 0.9.8d and
  1153. added support for EAP-FAST
  1154. * updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
  1155. draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-04.txt)
  1156. * fixed EAP-AKA Notification processing to allow Notification to be
  1157. processed after AKA Challenge response has been sent
  1158. * updated to use IEEE 802.11w/D2.0 for management frame protection
  1159. (still experimental)
  1160. * fixed EAP-TTLS implementation not to crash on use of freed memory
  1161. if TLS library initialization fails
  1162. * added support for EAP-TNC (Trusted Network Connect)
  1163. (this version implements the EAP-TNC method and EAP-TTLS changes
  1164. needed to run two methods in sequence (IF-T) and the IF-IMC and
  1165. IF-TNCCS interfaces from TNCC)
  1166. 2006-11-24 - v0.5.6
  1167. * added experimental, integrated TLSv1 client implementation with the
  1168. needed X.509/ASN.1/RSA/bignum processing (this can be enabled by
  1169. setting CONFIG_TLS=internal and CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH=y in
  1170. .config); this can be useful, e.g., if the target system does not
  1171. have a suitable TLS library and a minimal code size is required
  1172. (total size of this internal TLS/crypto code is bit under 50 kB on
  1173. x86 and the crypto code is shared by rest of the supplicant so some
  1174. of it was already required; TLSv1/X.509/ASN.1/RSA added about 25 kB)
  1175. * removed STAKey handshake since PeerKey handshake has replaced it in
  1176. IEEE 802.11ma and there are no known deployments of STAKey
  1177. * updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
  1178. draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-01.txt)
  1179. * added preliminary implementation of IEEE 802.11w/D1.0 (management
  1180. frame protection)
  1181. (Note: this requires driver support to work properly.)
  1182. (Note2: IEEE 802.11w is an unapproved draft and subject to change.)
  1183. * fixed Windows named pipes ctrl_iface to not stop listening for
  1184. commands if client program opens a named pipe and closes it
  1185. immediately without sending a command
  1186. * fixed USIM PIN status determination for the case that PIN is not
  1187. needed (this allows EAP-AKA to be used with USIM cards that do not
  1188. use PIN)
  1189. * added support for reading 3G USIM AID from EF_DIR to allow EAP-AKA to
  1190. be used with cards that do not support file selection based on
  1191. partial AID
  1192. * added support for matching the subjectAltName of the authentication
  1193. server certificate against multiple name components (e.g.,
  1194. altsubject_match="DNS:server.example.com;DNS:server2.example.com")
  1195. * fixed EAP-SIM/AKA key derivation for re-authentication case (only
  1196. affects IEEE 802.1X with dynamic WEP keys)
  1197. * changed ctrl_iface network configuration 'get' operations to not
  1198. return password/key material; if these fields are requested, "*"
  1199. will be returned if the password/key is set, but the value of the
  1200. parameter is not exposed
  1201. 2006-08-27 - v0.5.5
  1202. * added support for building Windows version with UNICODE defined
  1203. (wide-char functions)
  1204. * driver_ndis: fixed static WEP configuration to avoid race condition
  1205. issues with some NDIS drivers between association and setting WEP
  1206. keys
  1207. * driver_ndis: added validation for IELength value in scan results to
  1208. avoid crashes when using buggy NDIS drivers [Bug 165]
  1209. * fixed Release|Win32 target in the Visual Studio project files
  1210. (previously, only Debug|Win32 target was set properly)
  1211. * changed control interface API call wpa_ctrl_pending() to allow it to
  1212. return -1 on error (e.g., connection lost); control interface clients
  1213. will need to make sure that they verify that the value is indeed >0
  1214. when determining whether there are pending messages
  1215. * added an alternative control interface backend for Windows targets:
  1216. Named Pipe (CONFIG_CTRL_IFACE=named_pipe); this is now the default
  1217. control interface mechanism for Windows builds (previously, UDP to
  1218. localhost was used)
  1219. * changed ctrl_interface configuration for UNIX domain sockets:
  1220. - deprecated ctrl_interface_group variable (it may be removed in
  1221. future versions)
  1222. - allow both directory and group be configured with ctrl_interface
  1223. in following format: DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=wheel
  1224. - ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant is still supported for the
  1225. case when group is not changed
  1226. * added support for controlling more than one interface per process in
  1227. Windows version
  1228. * added a workaround for a case where the AP is using unknown address
  1229. (e.g., MAC address of the wired interface) as the source address for
  1230. EAPOL-Key frames; previously, that source address was used as the
  1231. destination for EAPOL-Key frames and in key derivation; now, BSSID is
  1232. used even if the source address does not match with it
  1233. (this resolves an interoperability issue with Thomson SpeedTouch 580)
  1234. * added a workaround for UDP-based control interface (which was used in
  1235. Windows builds before this release) to prevent packets with forged
  1236. addresses from being accepted as local control requests
  1237. * removed ndis_events.cpp and possibility of using external
  1238. ndis_events.exe; C version (ndis_events.c) is fully functional and
  1239. there is no desire to maintain two separate versions of this
  1240. implementation
  1241. * ndis_events: Changed NDIS event notification design to use WMI to
  1242. learn the adapter description through Win32_PnPEntity class; this
  1243. should fix some cases where the adapter name was not recognized
  1244. correctly (e.g., with some USB WLAN adapters, e.g., Ralink RT2500
  1245. USB) [Bug 113]
  1246. * fixed selection of the first network in ap_scan=2 mode; previously,
  1247. wpa_supplicant could get stuck in SCANNING state when only the first
  1248. network for enabled (e.g., after 'wpa_cli select_network 0')
  1249. * winsvc: added support for configuring ctrl_interface parameters in
  1250. registry (ctrl_interface string value in
  1251. HKLM\SOFTWARE\wpa_supplicant\interfaces\0000 key); this new value is
  1252. required to enable control interface (previously, this was hardcoded
  1253. to be enabled)
  1254. * allow wpa_gui subdirectory to be built with both Qt3 and Qt4
  1255. * converted wpa_gui-qt4 subdirectory to use Qt4 specific project format
  1256. 2006-06-20 - v0.5.4
  1257. * fixed build with CONFIG_STAKEY=y [Bug 143]
  1258. * added support for doing MLME (IEEE 802.11 management frame
  1259. processing) in wpa_supplicant when using Devicescape IEEE 802.11
  1260. stack (wireless-dev.git tree)
  1261. * added a new network block configuration option, fragment_size, to
  1262. configure the maximum EAP fragment size
  1263. * driver_ndis: Disable WZC automatically for the selected interface to
  1264. avoid conflicts with two programs trying to control the radio; WZC
  1265. will be re-enabled (if it was enabled originally) when wpa_supplicant
  1266. is terminated
  1267. * added an experimental TLSv1 client implementation
  1268. (CONFIG_TLS=internal) that can be used instead of an external TLS
  1269. library, e.g., to reduce total size requirement on systems that do
  1270. not include any TLS library by default (this is not yet complete;
  1271. basic functionality is there, but certificate validation is not yet
  1272. included)
  1273. * added PeerKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e
  1274. direct link setup (DLS) to replace STAKey handshake
  1275. * fixed WPA PSK update through ctrl_iface for the case where the old
  1276. PSK was derived from an ASCII passphrase and the new PSK is set as
  1277. a raw PSK (hex string)
  1278. * added new configuration option for identifying which network block
  1279. was used (id_str in wpa_supplicant.conf; included on
  1280. WPA_EVENT_CONNECT monitor event and as WPA_ID_STR environmental
  1281. variable in wpa_cli action scripts; in addition WPA_ID variable is
  1282. set to the current unique identifier that wpa_supplicant assigned
  1283. automatically for the network and that can be used with
  1284. GET_NETWORK/SET_NETWORK ctrl_iface commands)
  1285. * wpa_cli action script is now called only when the connect/disconnect
  1286. status changes or when associating with a different network
  1287. * fixed configuration parser not to remove CCMP from group cipher list
  1288. if WPA-None (adhoc) is used (pairwise=NONE in that case)
  1289. * fixed integrated NDIS events processing not to hang the process due
  1290. to a missed change in eloop_win.c API in v0.5.3 [Bug 155]
  1291. * added support for EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK,
  1292. draft-clancy-emu-eap-shared-secret-00.txt)
  1293. * added Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 solution and project files for
  1294. build wpa_supplicant for Windows (see vs2005 subdirectory)
  1295. * eloop_win: fixed unregistration of Windows events
  1296. * l2_packet_winpcap: fixed a deadlock in deinitializing l2_packet
  1297. at the end of RSN pre-authentication and added unregistration of
  1298. a Windows event to avoid getting eloop_win stuck with an invalid
  1299. handle
  1300. * driver_ndis: added support for selecting AP based on BSSID
  1301. * added new environmental variable for wpa_cli action scripts:
  1302. WPA_CTRL_DIR is the current control interface directory
  1303. * driver_ndis: added support for using NDISUIO instead of WinPcap for
  1304. OID set/query operations (CONFIG_USE_NDISUIO=y in .config); with new
  1305. l2_packet_ndis (CONFIG_L2_PACKET=ndis), this can be used to build
  1306. wpa_supplicant without requiring WinPcap; note that using NDISUIO
  1307. requires that WZC is disabled (net stop wzcsvc) since NDISUIO allows
  1308. only one application to open the device
  1309. * changed NDIS driver naming to only include device GUID, e.g.,
  1310. {7EE3EFE5-C165-472F-986D-F6FBEDFE8C8D}, instead of including WinPcap
  1311. specific \Device\NPF_ prefix before the GUID; the prefix is still
  1312. allowed for backwards compatibility, but it is not required anymore
  1313. when specifying the interface
  1314. * driver_ndis: re-initialize driver interface is the adapter is removed
  1315. and re-inserted [Bug 159]
  1316. * driver_madwifi: fixed TKIP and CCMP sequence number configuration on
  1317. big endian hosts [Bug 146]
  1318. 2006-04-27 - v0.5.3
  1319. * fixed EAP-GTC response to include correct user identity when run as
  1320. phase 2 method of EAP-FAST (i.e., EAP-FAST did not work in v0.5.2)
  1321. * driver_ndis: Fixed encryption mode configuration for unencrypted
  1322. networks (some NDIS drivers ignored this, but others, e.g., Broadcom,
  1323. refused to associate with open networks) [Bug 106]
  1324. * driver_ndis: use BSSID OID polling to detect when IBSS network is
  1325. formed even when ndis_events code is included since some NDIS drivers
  1326. do not generate media connect events in IBSS mode
  1327. * config_winreg: allow global ctrl_interface parameter to be configured
  1328. in Windows registry
  1329. * config_winreg: added support for saving configuration data into
  1330. Windows registry
  1331. * added support for controlling network device operational state
  1332. (dormant/up) for Linux 2.6.17 to improve DHCP processing (see
  1333. http://www.flamewarmaster.de/software/dhcpclient/ for a DHCP client
  1334. that can use this information)
  1335. * driver_wext: added support for WE-21 change to SSID configuration
  1336. * driver_wext: fixed privacy configuration for static WEP keys mode
  1337. [Bug 140]
  1338. * added an optional driver_ops callback for MLME-SETPROTECTION.request
  1339. primitive
  1340. * added support for EAP-SAKE (no EAP method number allocated yet, so
  1341. this is using the same experimental type 255 as EAP-PSK)
  1342. * added support for dynamically loading EAP methods (.so files) instead
  1343. of requiring them to be statically linked in; this is disabled by
  1344. default (see CONFIG_DYNAMIC_EAP_METHODS in defconfig for information
  1345. on how to use this)
  1346. 2006-03-19 - v0.5.2
  1347. * do not try to use USIM APDUs when initializing PC/SC for SIM card
  1348. access for a network that has not enabled EAP-AKA
  1349. * fixed EAP phase 2 Nak for EAP-{PEAP,TTLS,FAST} (this was broken in
  1350. v0.5.1 due to the new support for expanded EAP types)
  1351. * added support for generating EAP Expanded Nak
  1352. * try to fetch scan results once before requesting new scan when
  1353. starting up in ap_scan=1 mode (this can speed up initial association
  1354. a lot with, e.g., madwifi-ng driver)
  1355. * added support for receiving EAPOL frames from a Linux bridge
  1356. interface (-bbr0 on command line)
  1357. * fixed EAPOL re-authentication for sessions that used PMKSA caching
  1358. * changed EAP method registration to use a dynamic list of methods
  1359. instead of a static list generated at build time
  1360. * fixed PMKSA cache deinitialization not to use freed memory when
  1361. removing PMKSA entries
  1362. * fixed a memory leak in EAP-TTLS re-authentication
  1363. * reject WPA/WPA2 message 3/4 if it does not include any valid
  1364. WPA/RSN IE
  1365. * driver_wext: added fallback to use SIOCSIWENCODE for setting auth_alg
  1366. if the driver does not support SIOCSIWAUTH
  1367. 2006-01-29 - v0.5.1
  1368. * driver_test: added better support for multiple APs and STAs by using
  1369. a directory with sockets that include MAC address for each device in
  1370. the name (driver_param=test_dir=/tmp/test)
  1371. * added support for EAP expanded type (vendor specific EAP methods)
  1372. * added AP_SCAN command into ctrl_iface so that ap_scan configuration
  1373. option can be changed if needed
  1374. * wpa_cli/wpa_gui: skip non-socket files in control directory when
  1375. using UNIX domain sockets; this avoids selecting an incorrect
  1376. interface (e.g., a PID file could be in this directory, even though
  1377. use of this directory for something else than socket files is not
  1378. recommended)
  1379. * fixed TLS library deinitialization after RSN pre-authentication not
  1380. to disable TLS library for normal authentication
  1381. * driver_wext: Remove null-termination from SSID length if the driver
  1382. used it; some Linux drivers do this and they were causing problems in
  1383. wpa_supplicant not finding matching configuration block. This change
  1384. would break a case where the SSID actually ends in '\0', but that is
  1385. not likely to happen in real use.
  1386. * fixed PMKSA cache processing not to trigger deauthentication if the
  1387. current PMKSA cache entry is replaced with a valid new entry
  1388. * fixed PC/SC initialization for ap_scan != 1 modes (this fixes
  1389. EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA with real SIM/USIM card when using ap_scan=0 or
  1390. ap_scan=2)
  1391. 2005-12-18 - v0.5.0 (beginning of 0.5.x development releases)
  1392. * added experimental STAKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e
  1393. direct link setup (DLS); note: this is disabled by default in both
  1394. build and runtime configuration (can be enabled with CONFIG_STAKEY=y
  1395. and stakey=1)
  1396. * fixed EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA pseudonym and fast re-authentication to
  1397. decrypt AT_ENCR_DATA attributes correctly
  1398. * fixed EAP-AKA to allow resynchronization within the same session
  1399. * made code closer to ANSI C89 standard to make it easier to port to
  1400. other C libraries and compilers
  1401. * started moving operating system or C library specific functions into
  1402. wrapper functions defined in os.h and implemented in os_*.c to make
  1403. code more portable
  1404. * wpa_supplicant can now be built with Microsoft Visual C++
  1405. (e.g., with the freely available Toolkit 2003 version or Visual
  1406. C++ 2005 Express Edition and Platform SDK); see nmake.mak for an
  1407. example makefile for nmake
  1408. * added support for using Windows registry for command line parameters
  1409. (CONFIG_MAIN=main_winsvc) and configuration data
  1410. (CONFIG_BACKEND=winreg); see win_example.reg for an example registry
  1411. contents; this version can be run both as a Windows service and as a
  1412. normal application; 'wpasvc.exe app' to start as applicant,
  1413. 'wpasvc.exe reg <full path to wpasvc.exe>' to register a service,
  1414. 'net start wpasvc' to start the service, 'wpasvc.exe unreg' to
  1415. unregister a service
  1416. * made it possible to link ndis_events.exe functionality into
  1417. wpa_supplicant.exe by defining CONFIG_NDIS_EVENTS_INTEGRATED
  1418. * added better support for multiple control interface backends
  1419. (CONFIG_CTRL_IFACE option); currently, 'unix' and 'udp' are supported
  1420. * fixed PC/SC code to use correct length for GSM AUTH command buffer
  1421. and to not use pioRecvPci with SCardTransmit() calls; these were not
  1422. causing visible problems with pcsc-lite, but Windows Winscard.dll
  1423. refused the previously used parameters; this fixes EAP-SIM and
  1424. EAP-AKA authentication using SIM/USIM card under Windows
  1425. * added new event loop implementation for Windows using
  1426. WaitForMultipleObject() instead of select() in order to allow waiting
  1427. for non-socket objects; this can be selected with
  1428. CONFIG_ELOOP=eloop_win in .config
  1429. * added support for selecting l2_packet implementation in .config
  1430. (CONFIG_L2_PACKET; following options are available now: linux, pcap,
  1431. winpcap, freebsd, none)
  1432. * added new l2_packet implementation for WinPcap
  1433. (CONFIG_L2_PACKET=winpcap) that uses a separate receive thread to
  1434. reduce latency in EAPOL receive processing from about 100 ms to about
  1435. 3 ms
  1436. * added support for EAP-FAST key derivation using other ciphers than
  1437. RC4-128-SHA for authentication and AES128-SHA for provisioning
  1438. * added support for configuring CA certificate as DER file and as a
  1439. configuration blob
  1440. * fixed private key configuration as configuration blob and added
  1441. support for using PKCS#12 as a blob
  1442. * tls_gnutls: added support for using PKCS#12 files; added support for
  1443. session resumption
  1444. * added support for loading trusted CA certificates from Windows
  1445. certificate store: ca_cert="cert_store://<name>", where <name> is
  1446. likely CA (Intermediate CA certificates) or ROOT (root certificates)
  1447. * added C version of ndis_events.cpp and made it possible to build this
  1448. with MinGW so that CONFIG_NDIS_EVENTS_INTEGRATED can be used more
  1449. easily on cross-compilation builds
  1450. * added wpasvc.exe into Windows binary release; this is an alternative
  1451. version of wpa_supplicant.exe with configuration backend using
  1452. Windows registry and with the entry point designed to run as a
  1453. Windows service
  1454. * integrated ndis_events.exe functionality into wpa_supplicant.exe and
  1455. wpasvc.exe and removed this additional tool from the Windows binary
  1456. release since it is not needed anymore
  1457. * load winscard.dll functions dynamically when building with MinGW
  1458. since MinGW does not yet include winscard library
  1459. 2005-11-20 - v0.4.7 (beginning of 0.4.x stable releases)
  1460. * l2_packet_pcap: fixed wired IEEE 802.1X authentication with libpcap
  1461. and WinPcap to receive frames sent to PAE group address
  1462. * disable EAP state machine when IEEE 802.1X authentication is not used
  1463. in order to get rid of bogus "EAP failed" messages
  1464. * fixed OpenSSL error reporting to go through all pending errors to
  1465. avoid confusing reports of old errors being reported at later point
  1466. during handshake
  1467. * fixed configuration file updating to not write empty variables
  1468. (e.g., proto or key_mgmt) that the file parser would not accept
  1469. * fixed ADD_NETWORK ctrl_iface command to use the same default values
  1470. for variables as empty network definitions read from config file
  1471. would get
  1472. * fixed EAP state machine to not discard EAP-Failure messages in many
  1473. cases (e.g., during TLS handshake)
  1474. * fixed a infinite loop in private key reading if the configured file
  1475. cannot be parsed successfully
  1476. * driver_madwifi: added support for madwifi-ng
  1477. * wpa_gui: do not display password/PSK field contents
  1478. * wpa_gui: added CA certificate configuration
  1479. * driver_ndis: fixed scan request in ap_scan=2 mode not to change SSID
  1480. * driver_ndis: include Beacon IEs in AssocInfo in order to notice if
  1481. the new AP is using different WPA/RSN IE
  1482. * use longer timeout for IEEE 802.11 association to avoid problems with
  1483. drivers that may take more than five second to associate
  1484. 2005-10-27 - v0.4.6
  1485. * allow fallback to WPA, if mixed WPA+WPA2 networks have mismatch in
  1486. RSN IE, but WPA IE would match with wpa_supplicant configuration
  1487. * added support for named configuration blobs in order to avoid having
  1488. to use file system for external files (e.g., certificates);
  1489. variables can be set to "blob://<blob name>" instead of file path to
  1490. use a named blob; supported fields: pac_file, client_cert,
  1491. private_key
  1492. * fixed RSN pre-authentication (it was broken in the clean up of WPA
  1493. state machine interface in v0.4.5)
  1494. * driver_madwifi: set IEEE80211_KEY_GROUP flag for group keys to make
  1495. sure the driver configures broadcast decryption correctly
  1496. * added ca_path (and ca_path2) configuration variables that can be used
  1497. to configure OpenSSL CA path, e.g., /etc/ssl/certs, for using the
  1498. system-wide trusted CA list
  1499. * added support for starting wpa_supplicant without a configuration
  1500. file (-C argument must be used to set ctrl_interface parameter for
  1501. this case; in addition, -p argument can be used to provide
  1502. driver_param; these new arguments can also be used with a
  1503. configuration to override the values from the configuration)
  1504. * added global control interface that can be optionally used for adding
  1505. and removing network interfaces dynamically (-g command line argument
  1506. for both wpa_supplicant and wpa_cli) without having to restart
  1507. wpa_supplicant process
  1508. * wpa_gui:
  1509. - try to save configuration whenever something is modified
  1510. - added WEP key configuration
  1511. - added possibility to edit the current network configuration
  1512. * driver_ndis: fixed driver polling not to increase frequency on each
  1513. received EAPOL frame due to incorrectly cancelled timeout
  1514. * added simple configuration file examples (in examples subdirectory)
  1515. * fixed driver_wext.c to filter wireless events based on ifindex to
  1516. avoid interfaces receiving events from other interfaces
  1517. * delay sending initial EAPOL-Start couple of seconds to speed up
  1518. authentication for the most common case of Authenticator starting
  1519. EAP authentication immediately after association
  1520. 2005-09-25 - v0.4.5
  1521. * added a workaround for clearing keys with ndiswrapper to allow
  1522. roaming from WPA enabled AP to plaintext one
  1523. * added docbook documentation (doc/docbook) that can be used to
  1524. generate, e.g., man pages
  1525. * l2_packet_linux: use socket type SOCK_DGRAM instead of SOCK_RAW for
  1526. PF_PACKET in order to prepare for network devices that do not use
  1527. Ethernet headers (e.g., network stack with native IEEE 802.11 frames)
  1528. * use receipt of EAPOL-Key frame as a lower layer success indication
  1529. for EAP state machine to allow recovery from dropped EAP-Success
  1530. frame
  1531. * cleaned up internal EAPOL frame processing by not including link
  1532. layer (Ethernet) header during WPA and EAPOL/EAP processing; this
  1533. header is added only when transmitted the frame; this makes it easier
  1534. to use wpa_supplicant on link layers that use different header than
  1535. Ethernet
  1536. * updated EAP-PSK to use draft 9 by default since this can now be
  1537. tested with hostapd; removed support for draft 3, including
  1538. server_nai configuration option from network blocks
  1539. * driver_wired: add PAE address to the multicast address list in order
  1540. to be able to receive EAPOL frames with drivers that do not include
  1541. these multicast addresses by default
  1542. * driver_wext: add support for WE-19
  1543. * added support for multiple configuration backends (CONFIG_BACKEND
  1544. option); currently, only 'file' is supported (i.e., the format used
  1545. in wpa_supplicant.conf)
  1546. * added support for updating configuration ('wpa_cli save_config');
  1547. this is disabled by default and can be enabled with global
  1548. update_config=1 variable in wpa_supplicant.conf; this allows wpa_cli
  1549. and wpa_gui to store the configuration changes in a permanent store
  1550. * added GET_NETWORK ctrl_iface command
  1551. (e.g., 'wpa_cli get_network 0 ssid')
  1552. 2005-08-21 - v0.4.4
  1553. * replaced OpenSSL patch for EAP-FAST support
  1554. (openssl-tls-extensions.patch) with a more generic and correct
  1555. patch (the new patch is not compatible with the previous one, so the
  1556. OpenSSL library will need to be patched with the new patch in order
  1557. to be able to build wpa_supplicant with EAP-FAST support)
  1558. * added support for using Windows certificate store (through CryptoAPI)
  1559. for client certificate and private key operations (EAP-TLS)
  1560. (see wpa_supplicant.conf for more information on how to configure
  1561. this with private_key)
  1562. * ported wpa_gui to Windows
  1563. * added Qt4 version of wpa_gui (wpa_gui-qt4 directory); this can be
  1564. built with the open source version of the Qt4 for Windows
  1565. * allow non-WPA modes (e.g., IEEE 802.1X with dynamic WEP) to be used
  1566. with drivers that do not support WPA
  1567. * ndis_events: fixed Windows 2000 support
  1568. * added support for enabling/disabling networks from the list of all
  1569. configured networks ('wpa_cli enable_network <network id>' and
  1570. 'wpa_cli disable_network <network id>')
  1571. * added support for adding and removing network from the current
  1572. configuration ('wpa_cli add_network' and 'wpa_cli remove_network
  1573. <network id>'); added networks are disabled by default and they can
  1574. be enabled with enable_network command once the configuration is done
  1575. for the new network; note: configuration file is not yet updated, so
  1576. these new networks are lost when wpa_supplicant is restarted
  1577. * added support for setting network configuration parameters through
  1578. the control interface, for example:
  1579. wpa_cli set_network 0 ssid "\"my network\""
  1580. * fixed parsing of strings that include both " and # within double
  1581. quoted area (e.g., "start"#end")
  1582. * added EAP workaround for PEAP session resumption: allow outer,
  1583. i.e., not tunneled, EAP-Success to terminate session since; this can
  1584. be disabled with eap_workaround=0
  1585. (this was allowed for PEAPv1 before, but now it is also allowed for
  1586. PEAPv0 since at least one RADIUS authentication server seems to be
  1587. doing this for PEAPv0, too)
  1588. * wpa_gui: added preliminary support for adding new networks to the
  1589. wpa_supplicant configuration (double click on the scan results to
  1590. open network configuration)
  1591. 2005-06-26 - v0.4.3
  1592. * removed interface for external EAPOL/EAP supplicant (e.g.,
  1593. Xsupplicant), (CONFIG_XSUPPLICANT_IFACE) since it is not required
  1594. anymore and is unlikely to be used by anyone
  1595. * driver_ndis: fixed WinPcap 3.0 support
  1596. * fixed build with CONFIG_DNET_PCAP=y on Linux
  1597. * l2_packet: moved different implementations into separate files
  1598. (l2_packet_*.c)
  1599. 2005-06-12 - v0.4.2
  1600. * driver_ipw: updated driver structures to match with ipw2200-1.0.4
  1601. (note: ipw2100-1.1.0 is likely to require an update to work with
  1602. this)
  1603. * added support for using ap_scan=2 mode with multiple network blocks;
  1604. wpa_supplicant will go through the networks one by one until the
  1605. driver reports a successful association; this uses the same order for
  1606. networks as scan_ssid=1 scans, i.e., the priority field is ignored
  1607. and the network block order in the file is used instead
  1608. * fixed a potential issue in RSN pre-authentication ending up using
  1609. freed memory if pre-authentication times out
  1610. * added support for matching alternative subject name extensions of the
  1611. authentication server certificate; new configuration variables
  1612. altsubject_match and altsubject_match2
  1613. * driver_ndis: added support for IEEE 802.1X authentication with wired
  1614. NDIS drivers
  1615. * added support for querying private key password (EAP-TLS) through the
  1616. control interface (wpa_cli/wpa_gui) if one is not included in the
  1617. configuration file
  1618. * driver_broadcom: fixed couple of memory leaks in scan result
  1619. processing
  1620. * EAP-PAX is now registered as EAP type 46
  1621. * fixed EAP-PAX MAC calculation
  1622. * fixed EAP-PAX CK and ICK key derivation
  1623. * added support for using password with EAP-PAX (as an alternative to
  1624. entering key with eappsk); SHA-1 hash of the password will be used as
  1625. the key in this case
  1626. * added support for arbitrary driver interface parameters through the
  1627. configuration file with a new driver_param field; this adds a new
  1628. driver_ops function set_param()
  1629. * added possibility to override l2_packet module with driver interface
  1630. API (new send_eapol handler); this can be used to implement driver
  1631. specific TX/RX functions for EAPOL frames
  1632. * fixed ctrl_interface_group processing for the case where gid is
  1633. entered as a number, not group name
  1634. * driver_test: added support for testing hostapd with wpa_supplicant
  1635. by using test driver interface without any kernel drivers or network
  1636. cards
  1637. 2005-05-22 - v0.4.1
  1638. * driver_madwifi: fixed WPA/WPA2 mode configuration to allow EAPOL
  1639. packets to be encrypted; this was apparently broken by the changed
  1640. ioctl order in v0.4.0
  1641. * driver_madwifi: added preliminary support for compiling against 'BSD'
  1642. branch of madwifi CVS tree
  1643. * added support for EAP-MSCHAPv2 password retries within the same EAP
  1644. authentication session
  1645. * added support for password changes with EAP-MSCHAPv2 (used when the
  1646. password has expired)
  1647. * added support for reading additional certificates from PKCS#12 files
  1648. and adding them to the certificate chain
  1649. * fixed association with IEEE 802.1X (no WPA) when dynamic WEP keys
  1650. were used
  1651. * fixed a possible double free in EAP-TTLS fast-reauthentication when
  1652. identity or password is entered through control interface
  1653. * display EAP Notification messages to user through control interface
  1654. with "CTRL-EVENT-EAP-NOTIFICATION" prefix
  1655. * added GUI version of wpa_cli, wpa_gui; this is not build
  1656. automatically with 'make'; use 'make wpa_gui' to build (this requires
  1657. Qt development tools)
  1658. * added 'disconnect' command to control interface for setting
  1659. wpa_supplicant in state where it will not associate before
  1660. 'reassociate' command has been used
  1661. * added support for selecting a network from the list of all configured
  1662. networks ('wpa_cli select_network <network id>'; this disabled all
  1663. other networks; to re-enable, 'wpa_cli select_network any')
  1664. * added support for getting scan results through control interface
  1665. * added EAP workaround for PEAPv1 session resumption: allow outer,
  1666. i.e., not tunneled, EAP-Success to terminate session since; this can
  1667. be disabled with eap_workaround=0
  1668. 2005-04-25 - v0.4.0 (beginning of 0.4.x development releases)
  1669. * added a new build time option, CONFIG_NO_STDOUT_DEBUG, that can be
  1670. used to reduce the size of the wpa_supplicant considerably if
  1671. debugging code is not needed
  1672. * fixed EAPOL-Key validation to drop packets with invalid Key Data
  1673. Length; such frames could have crashed wpa_supplicant due to buffer
  1674. overflow
  1675. * added support for wired authentication (IEEE 802.1X on wired
  1676. Ethernet); driver interface 'wired'
  1677. * obsoleted set_wpa() handler in the driver interface API (it can be
  1678. replaced by moving enable/disable functionality into init()/deinit())
  1679. (calls to set_wpa() are still present for backwards compatibility,
  1680. but they may be removed in the future)
  1681. * driver_madwifi: fixed association in plaintext mode
  1682. * modified the EAP workaround that accepts EAP-Success with incorrect
  1683. Identifier to be even less strict about verification in order to
  1684. interoperate with some authentication servers
  1685. * added support for sending TLS alerts
  1686. * added support for 'any' SSID wildcard; if ssid is not configured or
  1687. is set to an empty string, any SSID will be accepted for non-WPA AP
  1688. * added support for asking PIN (for SIM) from frontends (e.g.,
  1689. wpa_cli); if a PIN is needed, but not included in the configuration
  1690. file, a control interface request is sent and EAP processing is
  1691. delayed until the PIN is available
  1692. * added support for using external devices (e.g., a smartcard) for
  1693. private key operations in EAP-TLS (CONFIG_SMARTCARD=y in .config);
  1694. new wpa_supplicant.conf variables:
  1695. - global: opensc_engine_path, pkcs11_engine_path, pkcs11_module_path
  1696. - network: engine, engine_id, key_id
  1697. * added experimental support for EAP-PAX
  1698. * added monitor mode for wpa_cli (-a<path to a program to run>) that
  1699. allows external commands (e.g., shell scripts) to be run based on
  1700. wpa_supplicant events, e.g., when authentication has been completed
  1701. and data connection is ready; other related wpa_cli arguments:
  1702. -B (run in background), -P (write PID file); wpa_supplicant has a new
  1703. command line argument (-W) that can be used to make it wait until a
  1704. control interface command is received in order to avoid missing
  1705. events
  1706. * added support for opportunistic WPA2 PMKSA key caching (disabled by
  1707. default, can be enabled with proactive_key_caching=1)
  1708. * fixed RSN IE in 4-Way Handshake message 2/4 for the case where
  1709. Authenticator rejects PMKSA caching attempt and the driver is not
  1710. using assoc_info events
  1711. * added -P<pid file> argument for wpa_supplicant to write the current
  1712. process id into a file
  1713. 2005-02-12 - v0.3.7 (beginning of 0.3.x stable releases)
  1714. * added new phase1 option parameter, include_tls_length=1, to force
  1715. wpa_supplicant to add TLS Message Length field to all TLS messages
  1716. even if the packet is not fragmented; this may be needed with some
  1717. authentication servers
  1718. * fixed WPA/RSN IE verification in message 3 of 4-Way Handshake when
  1719. using drivers that take care of AP selection (e.g., when using
  1720. ap_scan=2)
  1721. * fixed reprocessing of pending request after ctrl_iface requests for
  1722. identity/password/otp
  1723. * fixed ctrl_iface requests for identity/password/otp in Phase 2 of
  1724. EAP-PEAP and EAP-TTLS
  1725. * all drivers using driver_wext: set interface up and select Managed
  1726. mode when starting wpa_supplicant; set interface down when exiting
  1727. * renamed driver_ipw2100.c to driver_ipw.c since it now supports both
  1728. ipw2100 and ipw2200; please note that this also changed the
  1729. configuration variable in .config to CONFIG_DRIVER_IPW
  1730. 2005-01-24 - v0.3.6
  1731. * fixed a busy loop introduced in v0.3.5 for scan result processing
  1732. when no matching AP is found
  1733. 2005-01-23 - v0.3.5
  1734. * added a workaround for an interoperability issue with a Cisco AP
  1735. when using WPA2-PSK
  1736. * fixed non-WPA IEEE 802.1X to use the same authentication timeout as
  1737. WPA with IEEE 802.1X (i.e., timeout 10 -> 70 sec to allow
  1738. retransmission of dropped frames)
  1739. * fixed issues with 64-bit CPUs and SHA1 cleanup in previous version
  1740. (e.g., segfault when processing EAPOL-Key frames)
  1741. * fixed EAP workaround and fast reauthentication configuration for
  1742. RSN pre-authentication; previously these were disabled and
  1743. pre-authentication would fail if the used authentication server
  1744. requires EAP workarounds
  1745. * added support for blacklisting APs that fail or timeout
  1746. authentication in ap_scan=1 mode so that all APs are tried in cases
  1747. where the ones with strongest signal level are failing authentication
  1748. * fixed CA certificate loading after a failed EAP-TLS/PEAP/TTLS
  1749. authentication attempt
  1750. * allow EAP-PEAP/TTLS fast reauthentication only if Phase 2 succeeded
  1751. in the previous authentication (previously, only Phase 1 success was
  1752. verified)
  1753. 2005-01-09 - v0.3.4
  1754. * added preliminary support for IBSS (ad-hoc) mode configuration
  1755. (mode=1 in network block); this included a new key_mgmt mode
  1756. WPA-NONE, i.e., TKIP or CCMP with a fixed key (based on psk) and no
  1757. key management; see wpa_supplicant.conf for more details and an
  1758. example on how to configure this (note: this is currently implemented
  1759. only for driver_hostapd.c, but the changes should be trivial to add
  1760. in associate() handler for other drivers, too (assuming the driver
  1761. supports WPA-None)
  1762. * added preliminary port for native Windows (i.e., no cygwin) using
  1763. mingw
  1764. 2005-01-02 - v0.3.3
  1765. * added optional support for GNU Readline and History Libraries for
  1766. wpa_cli (CONFIG_READLINE)
  1767. * cleaned up EAP state machine <-> method interface and number of
  1768. small problems with error case processing not terminating on
  1769. EAP-Failure but waiting for timeout
  1770. * added couple of workarounds for interoperability issues with a
  1771. Cisco AP when using WPA2
  1772. * added support for EAP-FAST (draft-cam-winget-eap-fast-00.txt);
  1773. Note: This requires a patch for openssl to add support for TLS
  1774. extensions and number of workarounds for operations without
  1775. certificates. Proof of concept type of experimental patch is
  1776. included in openssl-tls-extensions.patch.
  1777. 2004-12-19 - v0.3.2
  1778. * fixed private key loading for cases where passphrase is not set
  1779. * fixed Windows/cygwin L2 packet handler freeing; previous version
  1780. could cause a segfault when RSN pre-authentication was completed
  1781. * added support for PMKSA caching with drivers that generate RSN IEs
  1782. (e.g., NDIS); currently, this is only implemented in driver_ndis.c,
  1783. but similar code can be easily added to driver_ndiswrapper.c once
  1784. ndiswrapper gets full support for RSN PMKSA caching
  1785. * improved recovery from PMKID mismatches by requesting full EAP
  1786. authentication in case of failed PMKSA caching attempt
  1787. * driver_ndis: added support for NDIS NdisMIncidateStatus() events
  1788. (this requires that ndis_events is ran while wpa_supplicant is
  1789. running)
  1790. * driver_ndis: use ADD_WEP/REMOVE_WEP when configuring WEP keys
  1791. * added support for driver interfaces to replace the interface name
  1792. based on driver/OS specific mapping, e.g., in case of driver_ndis,
  1793. this allows the beginning of the adapter description to be used as
  1794. the interface name
  1795. * added support for CR+LF (Windows-style) line ends in configuration
  1796. file
  1797. * driver_ndis: enable radio before starting scanning, disable radio
  1798. when exiting
  1799. * modified association event handler to set portEnabled = FALSE before
  1800. clearing port Valid in order to reset EAP state machine and avoid
  1801. problems with new authentication getting ignored because of state
  1802. machines ending up in AUTHENTICATED/SUCCESS state based on old
  1803. information
  1804. * added support for driver events to add PMKID candidates in order to
  1805. allow drivers to give priority to most likely roaming candidates
  1806. * driver_hostap: moved PrivacyInvoked configuration to associate()
  1807. function so that this will not be set for plaintext connections
  1808. * added KEY_MGMT_802_1X_NO_WPA as a new key_mgmt type so that driver
  1809. interface can distinguish plaintext and IEEE 802.1X (no WPA)
  1810. authentication
  1811. * fixed static WEP key configuration to use broadcast/default type for
  1812. all keys (previously, the default TX key was configured as pairwise/
  1813. unicast key)
  1814. * driver_ndis: added legacy WPA capability detection for non-WPA2
  1815. drivers
  1816. * added support for setting static WEP keys for IEEE 802.1X without
  1817. dynamic WEP keying (eapol_flags=0)
  1818. 2004-12-12 - v0.3.1
  1819. * added support for reading PKCS#12 (PFX) files (as a replacement for
  1820. PEM/DER) to get certificate and private key (CONFIG_PKCS12)
  1821. * fixed compilation with CONFIG_PCSC=y
  1822. * added new ap_scan mode, ap_scan=2, for drivers that take care of
  1823. association, but need to be configured with security policy and SSID,
  1824. e.g., ndiswrapper and NDIS driver; this mode should allow such
  1825. drivers to work with hidden SSIDs and optimized roaming; when
  1826. ap_scan=2 is used, only the first network block in the configuration
  1827. file is used and this configuration should have explicit security
  1828. policy (i.e., only one option in the lists) for key_mgmt, pairwise,
  1829. group, proto variables
  1830. * added experimental port of wpa_supplicant for Windows
  1831. - driver_ndis.c driver interface (NDIS OIDs)
  1832. - currently, this requires cygwin and WinPcap
  1833. - small utility, win_if_list, can be used to get interface name
  1834. * control interface can now be removed at build time; add
  1835. CONFIG_CTRL_IFACE=y to .config to maintain old functionality
  1836. * optional Xsupplicant interface can now be removed at build time;
  1837. (CONFIG_XSUPPLICANT_IFACE=y in .config to bring it back)
  1838. * added auth_alg to driver interface associate() parameters to make it
  1839. easier for drivers to configure authentication algorithm as part of
  1840. the association
  1841. 2004-12-05 - v0.3.0 (beginning of 0.3.x development releases)
  1842. * driver_broadcom: added new driver interface for Broadcom wl.o driver
  1843. (a generic driver for Broadcom IEEE 802.11a/g cards)
  1844. * wpa_cli: fixed parsing of -p <path> command line argument
  1845. * PEAPv1: fixed tunneled EAP-Success reply handling to reply with TLS
  1846. ACK, not tunneled EAP-Success (of which only the first byte was
  1847. actually send due to a bug in previous code); this seems to
  1848. interoperate with most RADIUS servers that implements PEAPv1
  1849. * PEAPv1: added support for terminating PEAP authentication on tunneled
  1850. EAP-Success message; this can be configured by adding
  1851. peap_outer_success=0 on phase1 parameters in wpa_supplicant.conf
  1852. (some RADIUS servers require this whereas others require a tunneled
  1853. reply
  1854. * PEAPv1: changed phase1 option peaplabel to use default to 0, i.e., to
  1855. the old label for key derivation; previously, the default was 1,
  1856. but it looks like most existing PEAPv1 implementations use the old
  1857. label which is thus more suitable default option
  1858. * added support for EAP-PSK (draft-bersani-eap-psk-03.txt)
  1859. * fixed parsing of wep_tx_keyidx
  1860. * added support for configuring list of allowed Phase 2 EAP types
  1861. (for both EAP-PEAP and EAP-TTLS) instead of only one type
  1862. * added support for configuring IEEE 802.11 authentication algorithm
  1863. (auth_alg; mainly for using Shared Key authentication with static
  1864. WEP keys)
  1865. * added support for EAP-AKA (with UMTS SIM)
  1866. * fixed couple of errors in PCSC handling that could have caused
  1867. random-looking errors for EAP-SIM
  1868. * added support for EAP-SIM pseudonyms and fast re-authentication
  1869. * added support for EAP-TLS/PEAP/TTLS fast re-authentication (TLS
  1870. session resumption)
  1871. * added support for EAP-SIM with two challanges
  1872. (phase1="sim_min_num_chal=3" can be used to require three challenges)
  1873. * added support for configuring DH/DSA parameters for an ephemeral DH
  1874. key exchange (EAP-TLS/PEAP/TTLS) using new configuration parameters
  1875. dh_file and dh_file2 (phase 2); this adds support for using DSA keys
  1876. and optional DH key exchange to achieve forward secracy with RSA keys
  1877. * added support for matching subject of the authentication server
  1878. certificate with a substring when using EAP-TLS/PEAP/TTLS; new
  1879. configuration variables subject_match and subject_match2
  1880. * changed SSID configuration in driver_wext.c (used by many driver
  1881. interfaces) to use ssid_len+1 as the length for SSID since some Linux
  1882. drivers expect this
  1883. * fixed couple of unaligned reads in scan result parsing to fix WPA
  1884. connection on some platforms (e.g., ARM)
  1885. * added driver interface for Intel ipw2100 driver
  1886. * added support for LEAP with WPA
  1887. * added support for larger scan results report (old limit was 4 kB of
  1888. data, i.e., about 35 or so APs) when using Linux wireless extensions
  1889. v17 or newer
  1890. * fixed a bug in PMKSA cache processing: skip sending of EAPOL-Start
  1891. only if there is a PMKSA cache entry for the current AP
  1892. * fixed error handling for case where reading of scan results fails:
  1893. must schedule a new scan or wpa_supplicant will remain waiting
  1894. forever
  1895. * changed debug output to remove shared password/key material by
  1896. default; all key information can be included with -K command line
  1897. argument to match the previous behavior
  1898. * added support for timestamping debug log messages (disabled by
  1899. default, can be enabled with -t command line argument)
  1900. * set pairwise/group cipher suite for non-WPA IEEE 802.1X to WEP-104
  1901. if keys are not configured to be used; this fixes IEEE 802.1X mode
  1902. with drivers that use this information to configure whether Privacy
  1903. bit can be in Beacon frames (e.g., ndiswrapper)
  1904. * avoid clearing driver keys if no keys have been configured since last
  1905. key clear request; this seems to improve reliability of group key
  1906. handshake for ndiswrapper & NDIS driver which seems to be suffering
  1907. of some kind of timing issue when the keys are cleared again after
  1908. association
  1909. * changed driver interface API:
  1910. - WPA_SUPPLICANT_DRIVER_VERSION define can be used to determine which
  1911. version is being used (now, this is set to 2; previously, it was
  1912. not defined)
  1913. - pass pointer to private data structure to all calls
  1914. - the new API is not backwards compatible; all in-tree driver
  1915. interfaces has been converted to the new API
  1916. * added support for controlling multiple interfaces (radios) per
  1917. wpa_supplicant process; each interface needs to be listed on the
  1918. command line (-c, -i, -D arguments) with -N as a separator
  1919. (-cwpa1.conf -iwlan0 -Dhostap -N -cwpa2.conf -iath0 -Dmadwifi)
  1920. * added a workaround for EAP servers that incorrectly use same Id for
  1921. sequential EAP packets
  1922. * changed libpcap/libdnet configuration to use .config variable,
  1923. CONFIG_DNET_PCAP, instead of requiring Makefile modification
  1924. * improved downgrade attack detection in IE verification of msg 3/4:
  1925. verify both WPA and RSN IEs, if present, not only the selected one;
  1926. reject the AP if an RSN IE is found in msg 3/4, but not in Beacon or
  1927. Probe Response frame, and RSN is enabled in wpa_supplicant
  1928. configuration
  1929. * fixed WPA msg 3/4 processing to allow Key Data field contain other
  1930. IEs than just one WPA IE
  1931. * added support for FreeBSD and driver interface for the BSD net80211
  1932. layer (CONFIG_DRIVER_BSD=y in .config); please note that some of the
  1933. required kernel mods have not yet been committed
  1934. * made EAP workarounds configurable; enabled by default, can be
  1935. disabled with network block option eap_workaround=0
  1936. 2004-07-17 - v0.2.4 (beginning of 0.2.x stable releases)
  1937. * resolved couple of interoperability issues with EAP-PEAPv1 and
  1938. Phase 2 (inner EAP) fragment reassembly
  1939. * driver_madwifi: fixed WEP key configuration for IEEE 802.1X when the
  1940. AP is using non-zero key index for the unicast key and key index zero
  1941. for the broadcast key
  1942. * driver_hostap: fixed IEEE 802.1X WEP key updates and
  1943. re-authentication by allowing unencrypted EAPOL frames when not using
  1944. WPA
  1945. * added a new driver interface, 'wext', which uses only standard,
  1946. driver independent functionality in Linux wireless extensions;
  1947. currently, this can be used only for non-WPA IEEE 802.1X mode, but
  1948. eventually, this is to be extended to support full WPA/WPA2 once
  1949. Linux wireless extensions get support for this
  1950. * added support for mode in which the driver is responsible for AP
  1951. scanning and selection; this is disabled by default and can be
  1952. enabled with global ap_scan=0 variable in wpa_supplicant.conf;
  1953. this mode can be used, e.g., with generic 'wext' driver interface to
  1954. use wpa_supplicant as IEEE 802.1X Supplicant with any Linux driver
  1955. supporting wireless extensions.
  1956. * driver_madwifi: fixed WPA2 configuration and scan_ssid=1 (e.g.,
  1957. operation with an AP that does not include SSID in the Beacon frames)
  1958. * added support for new EAP authentication methods:
  1959. EAP-TTLS/EAP-OTP, EAP-PEAPv0/OTP, EAP-PEAPv1/OTP, EAP-OTP
  1960. * added support for asking one-time-passwords from frontends (e.g.,
  1961. wpa_cli); this 'otp' command works otherwise like 'password' command,
  1962. but the password is used only once and the frontend will be asked for
  1963. a new password whenever a request from authenticator requires a
  1964. password; this can be used with both EAP-OTP and EAP-GTC
  1965. * changed wpa_cli to automatically re-establish connection so that it
  1966. does not need to be re-started when wpa_supplicant is terminated and
  1967. started again
  1968. * improved user data (identity/password/otp) requests through
  1969. frontends: process pending EAPOL packets after getting new
  1970. information so that full authentication does not need to be
  1971. restarted; in addition, send pending requests again whenever a new
  1972. frontend is attached
  1973. * changed control frontends to use a new directory for socket files to
  1974. make it easier for wpa_cli to automatically select between interfaces
  1975. and to provide access control for the control interface;
  1976. wpa_supplicant.conf: ctrl_interface is now a path
  1977. (/var/run/wpa_supplicant is the recommended path) and
  1978. ctrl_interface_group can be used to select which group gets access to
  1979. the control interface;
  1980. wpa_cli: by default, try to connect to the first interface available
  1981. in /var/run/wpa_supplicant; this path can be overriden with -p option
  1982. and an interface can be selected with -i option (i.e., in most common
  1983. cases, wpa_cli does not need to get any arguments)
  1984. * added support for LEAP
  1985. * added driver interface for Linux ndiswrapper
  1986. * added priority option for network blocks in the configuration file;
  1987. this allows networks to be grouped based on priority (the scan
  1988. results are searched for matches with network blocks in this order)
  1989. 2004-06-20 - v0.2.3
  1990. * sort scan results to improve AP selection
  1991. * fixed control interface socket removal for some error cases
  1992. * improved scan requesting and authentication timeout
  1993. * small improvements/bug fixes for EAP-MSCHAPv2, EAP-PEAP, and
  1994. TLS processing
  1995. * PEAP version can now be forced with phase1="peapver=<ver>"
  1996. (mostly for testing; by default, the highest version supported by
  1997. both the Supplicant and Authentication Server is selected
  1998. automatically)
  1999. * added support for madwifi driver (Atheros ar521x)
  2000. * added a workaround for cases where AP sets Install Tx/Rx bit for
  2001. WPA Group Key messages when pairwise keys are used (without this,
  2002. the Group Key would be used for Tx and the AP would drop frames
  2003. from the station)
  2004. * added GSM SIM/USIM interface for GSM authentication algorithm for
  2005. EAP-SIM; this requires pcsc-lite
  2006. * added support for ATMEL AT76C5XXx driver
  2007. * fixed IEEE 802.1X WEP key derivation in the case where Authenticator
  2008. does not include key data in the EAPOL-Key frame (i.e., part of
  2009. EAP keying material is used as data encryption key)
  2010. * added support for using plaintext and static WEP networks
  2011. (key_mgmt=NONE)
  2012. 2004-05-31 - v0.2.2
  2013. * added support for new EAP authentication methods:
  2014. EAP-TTLS/EAP-MD5-Challenge
  2015. EAP-TTLS/EAP-GTC
  2016. EAP-TTLS/EAP-MSCHAPv2
  2017. EAP-TTLS/EAP-TLS
  2018. EAP-TTLS/MSCHAPv2
  2019. EAP-TTLS/MSCHAP
  2020. EAP-TTLS/PAP
  2021. EAP-TTLS/CHAP
  2022. EAP-PEAP/TLS
  2023. EAP-PEAP/GTC
  2024. EAP-PEAP/MD5-Challenge
  2025. EAP-GTC
  2026. EAP-SIM (not yet complete; needs GSM/SIM authentication interface)
  2027. * added support for anonymous identity (to be used when identity is
  2028. sent in plaintext; real identity will be used within TLS protected
  2029. tunnel (e.g., with EAP-TTLS)
  2030. * added event messages from wpa_supplicant to frontends, e.g., wpa_cli
  2031. * added support for requesting identity and password information using
  2032. control interface; in other words, the password for EAP-PEAP or
  2033. EAP-TTLS does not need to be included in the configuration file since
  2034. a frontand (e.g., wpa_cli) can ask it from the user
  2035. * improved RSN pre-authentication to use a candidate list and process
  2036. all candidates from each scan; not only one per scan
  2037. * fixed RSN IE and WPA IE capabilities field parsing
  2038. * ignore Tx bit in GTK IE when Pairwise keys are used
  2039. * avoid making new scan requests during IEEE 802.1X negotiation
  2040. * use openssl/libcrypto for MD5 and SHA-1 when compiling wpa_supplicant
  2041. with TLS support (this replaces the included implementation with
  2042. library code to save about 8 kB since the library code is needed
  2043. anyway for TLS)
  2044. * fixed WPA-PSK only mode when compiled without IEEE 802.1X support
  2045. (i.e., without CONFIG_IEEE8021X_EAPOL=y in .config)
  2046. 2004-05-06 - v0.2.1
  2047. * added support for internal IEEE 802.1X (actually, IEEE 802.1aa/D6.1)
  2048. Supplicant
  2049. - EAPOL state machines for Supplicant [IEEE 802.1aa/D6.1]
  2050. - EAP peer state machine [draft-ietf-eap-statemachine-02.pdf]
  2051. - EAP-MD5 (cannot be used with WPA-RADIUS)
  2052. [draft-ietf-eap-rfc2284bis-09.txt]
  2053. - EAP-TLS [RFC 2716]
  2054. - EAP-MSCHAPv2 (currently used only with EAP-PEAP)
  2055. - EAP-PEAP/MSCHAPv2 [draft-josefsson-pppext-eap-tls-eap-07.txt]
  2056. [draft-kamath-pppext-eap-mschapv2-00.txt]
  2057. (PEAP version 0, 1, and parts of 2; only 0 and 1 are enabled by
  2058. default; tested with FreeRADIUS, Microsoft IAS, and Funk Odyssey)
  2059. - new configuration file options: eap, identity, password, ca_cert,
  2060. client_cert, privatekey, private_key_passwd
  2061. - Xsupplicant is not required anymore, but it can be used by
  2062. disabling the internal IEEE 802.1X Supplicant with -e command line
  2063. option
  2064. - this code is not included in the default build; Makefile need to
  2065. be edited for this (uncomment lines for selected functionality)
  2066. - EAP-TLS and EAP-PEAP require openssl libraries
  2067. * use module prefix in debug messages (WPA, EAP, EAP-TLS, ..)
  2068. * added support for non-WPA IEEE 802.1X mode with dynamic WEP keys
  2069. (i.e., complete IEEE 802.1X/EAP authentication and use IEEE 802.1X
  2070. EAPOL-Key frames instead of WPA key handshakes)
  2071. * added support for IEEE 802.11i/RSN (WPA2)
  2072. - improved PTK Key Handshake
  2073. - PMKSA caching, pre-authentication
  2074. * fixed wpa_supplicant to ignore possible extra data after WPA
  2075. EAPOL-Key packets (this fixes 'Invalid EAPOL-Key MIC when using
  2076. TPTK' error from message 3 of 4-Way Handshake in case the AP
  2077. includes extra data after the EAPOL-Key)
  2078. * added interface for external programs (frontends) to control
  2079. wpa_supplicant
  2080. - CLI example (wpa_cli) with interactive mode and command line
  2081. mode
  2082. - replaced SIGUSR1 status/statistics with the new control interface
  2083. * made some feature compile time configurable
  2084. - .config file for make
  2085. - driver interfaces (hostap, hermes, ..)
  2086. - EAPOL/EAP functions
  2087. 2004-02-15 - v0.2.0
  2088. * Initial version of wpa_supplicant
