  270. * added a workaround for WPS PBC session overlap detection to avoid
  271. interop issues with deployed station implementations that do not
  272. remove active PBC indication from Probe Request frames properly
  273. * added support for using SQLite for the eap_user database
  274. * added Acct-Session-Id attribute into Access-Request messages
  275. * fixed EAPOL frame transmission to non-QoS STAs with nl80211
  276. (do not send QoS frames if the STA did not negotiate use of QoS for
  277. this association)
  278. 2012-05-10 - v1.0
  279. * Add channel selection support in hostapd. See hostapd.conf.
  280. * Add support for IEEE 802.11v Time Advertisement mechanism with UTC
  281. TSF offset. See hostapd.conf for config info.
  282. * Delay STA entry removal until Deauth/Disassoc TX status in AP mode.
  283. This allows the driver to use PS buffering of Deauthentication and
  284. Disassociation frames when the STA is in power save sleep. Only
  285. available with drivers that provide TX status events for Deauth/
  286. Disassoc frames (nl80211).
  287. * Allow PMKSA caching to be disabled on the Authenticator. See
  288. hostap.conf config parameter disable_pmksa_caching.

  290. * bsd: Add support for setting HT values in IFM_MMASK.
  291. * Allow client isolation to be configured with ap_isolate. Client
  292. isolation can be used to prevent low-level bridging of frames
  293. between associated stations in the BSS. By default, this bridging
  294. is allowed.
  295. * Allow coexistance of HT BSSes with WEP/TKIP BSSes.
  296. * Add require_ht config parameter, which can be used to configure
  297. hostapd to reject association with any station that does not support
  298. HT PHY.
  299. * Add support for writing debug log to a file using "-f" option. Also
  300. add relog CLI command to re-open the log file.
  301. * Add bridge handling for WDS STA interfaces. By default they are
  302. added to the configured bridge of the AP interface (if present),
  303. but the user can also specify a separate bridge using cli command
  304. wds_bridge.
  305. * hostapd_cli:
  306. - Add wds_bridge command for specifying bridge for WDS STA
  307. interfaces.
  308. - Add relog command for reopening log file.
  309. - Send AP-STA-DISCONNECTED event when an AP disconnects a station
  310. due to inactivity.
  311. - Add wps_config ctrl_interface command for configuring AP. This
  312. command can be used to configure the AP using the internal WPS
  313. registrar. It works in the same way as new AP settings received
  314. from an ER.
  315. - Many WPS/WPS ER commands - see WPS/WPS ER sections for details.
  316. - Add command get version, that returns hostapd version string.
  317. * WNM: Add BSS Transition Management Request for ESS Disassoc Imminent.
  318. Use hostapd_cli ess_disassoc (STA addr) (URL) to send the
  319. notification to the STA.
  320. * Allow AP mode to disconnect STAs based on low ACK condition (when
  321. the data connection is not working properly, e.g., due to the STA
  322. going outside the range of the AP). Disabled by default, enable by
  323. config option disassoc_low_ack.
  324. * Add WPA_IGNORE_CONFIG_ERRORS build option to continue in case of bad
  325. config file.
  326. * WPS:
  327. - Send AP Settings as a wrapped Credential attribute to ctrl_iface
  328. in WPS-NEW-AP-SETTINGS.
  329. - Dispatch more WPS events through hostapd ctrl_iface.
  330. - Add mechanism for indicating non-standard WPS errors.
  331. - Change concurrent radio AP to use only one WPS UPnP instance.
  332. - Add wps_check_pin command for processing PIN from user input.
  333. UIs can use this command to process a PIN entered by a user and to
  334. validate the checksum digit (if present).
  335. - Add hostap_cli get_config command to display current AP config.
  336. - Add new hostapd_cli command, wps_ap_pin, to manage AP PIN at
  337. runtime and support dynamic AP PIN management.
  338. - Disable AP PIN after 10 consecutive failures. Slow down attacks
  339. on failures up to 10.
  340. - Allow AP to start in Enrollee mode without AP PIN for probing,
  341. to be compatible with Windows 7.
  342. - Add Config Error into WPS-FAIL events to provide more info
  343. to the user on how to resolve the issue.
  344. - When controlling multiple interfaces:
  345. - apply WPS commands to all interfaces configured to use WPS
  346. - apply WPS config changes to all interfaces that use WPS
  347. - when an attack is detected on any interface, disable AP PIN on
  348. all interfaces
  349. * WPS ER:
  350. - Show SetSelectedRegistrar events as ctrl_iface events.
  351. - Add special AP Setup Locked mode to allow read only ER.
  352. ap_setup_locked=2 can now be used to enable a special mode where
  353. WPS ER can learn the current AP settings, but cannot change them.
  354. * WPS 2.0: Add support for WPS 2.0 (CONFIG_WPS2)
  355. - Add build option CONFIG_WPS_EXTENSIBILITY_TESTING to enable tool
  356. for testing protocol extensibility.
  357. - Add build option CONFIG_WPS_STRICT to allow disabling of WPS
  358. workarounds.
  359. - Add support for AuthorizedMACs attribute.
  360. * TDLS:
  361. - Allow TDLS use or TDLS channel switching in the BSS to be
  362. prohibited in the BSS, using config params tdls_prohibit and
  363. tdls_prohibit_chan_switch.
  364. * EAP server: Add support for configuring fragment size (see
  365. fragment_size in hostapd.conf).
  366. * wlantest: Add a tool wlantest for IEEE802.11 protocol testing.
  367. wlantest can be used to capture frames from a monitor interface
  368. for realtime capturing or from pcap files for offline analysis.
  369. * Interworking: Support added for 802.11u. Enable in .config with
  370. CONFIG_INTERWORKING. See hostapd.conf for config parameters for
  371. interworking.
  372. * Android: Add build and runtime support for Android hostapd.
  373. * Add a new debug message level for excessive information. Use
  374. -ddd to enable.
  375. * TLS: Add support for tls_disable_time_checks=1 in client mode.
  376. * Internal TLS:
  377. - Add support for TLS v1.1 (RFC 4346). Enable with build parameter
  378. CONFIG_TLSV11.
  379. - Add domainComponent parser for X.509 names
  380. * Reorder some IEs to get closer to IEEE 802.11 standard. Move
  381. WMM into end of Beacon, Probe Resp and (Re)Assoc Resp frames.
  382. Move HT IEs to be later in (Re)Assoc Resp.
  383. * Many bugfixes.

  408. * fix WPS association with both WPS IE and WPA/RSN IE present with
  409. driver wrappers that use hostapd MLME (e.g., nl80211)
  410. 2010-01-16 - v0.7.1
  411. * cleaned up driver wrapper API (struct wpa_driver_ops); the new API
  412. is not fully backwards compatible, so out-of-tree driver wrappers

  425. PSK as an ASCII passphrase or PSK
  426. * added support for WDS (4-address frame) mode with per-station virtual
  427. interfaces (wds_sta=1 in config file; only supported with
  428. driver=nl80211 for now)
  429. * fixed WPS Probe Request processing to handle missing required
  430. attribute
  431. * fixed PKCS#12 use with OpenSSL 1.0.0
  432. * detect bridge interface automatically so that bridge parameter in
  433. hostapd.conf becomes optional (though, it may now be used to
  434. automatically add then WLAN interface into a bridge with
  435. driver=nl80211)
  436. 2009-11-21 - v0.7.0
  437. * increased hostapd_cli ping interval to 5 seconds and made this
  438. configurable with a new command line options (-G<seconds>)
  439. * driver_nl80211: use Linux socket filter to improve performance
  440. * added support for external Registrars with WPS (UPnP transport)
  441. * 802.11n: scan for overlapping BSSes before starting 20/40 MHz channel

  448. * fixed TNC with EAP-TTLS
  449. * fixed IEEE 802.11r key derivation function to match with the standard
  450. (note: this breaks interoperability with previous version) [Bug 303]
  451. * fixed SHA-256 based key derivation function to match with the
  452. standard when using CCMP (for IEEE 802.11r and IEEE 802.11w)
  453. (note: this breaks interoperability with previous version) [Bug 307]
  454. * added number of code size optimizations to remove unnecessary
  455. functionality from the program binary based on build configuration
  456. (part of this automatic; part configurable with CONFIG_NO_* build
  457. options)
  458. * use shared driver wrapper files with wpa_supplicant
  459. * driver_nl80211: multiple updates to provide support for new Linux
  460. nl80211/mac80211 functionality
  461. * updated management frame protection to use IEEE Std 802.11w-2009
  462. * fixed number of small WPS issues and added workarounds to
  463. interoperate with common deployed broken implementations
  464. * added some IEEE 802.11n co-existence rules to disable 40 MHz channels
  465. or modify primary/secondary channels if needed based on neighboring
  466. networks
  467. * added support for NFC out-of-band mechanism with WPS
  468. * added preliminary support for IEEE 802.11r RIC processing
  469. 2009-01-06 - v0.6.7
  470. * added support for Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)
  471. (hostapd can now be configured to act as an integrated WPS Registrar
  472. and provision credentials for WPS Enrollees using PIN and PBC
  473. methods; external wireless Registrar can configure the AP, but
  474. external WLAN Manager Registrars are not supported); WPS support can
  475. be enabled by adding CONFIG_WPS=y into .config and setting the
  476. runtime configuration variables in hostapd.conf (see WPS section in
  477. the example configuration file); new hostapd_cli commands wps_pin and
  478. wps_pbc are used to configure WPS negotiation; see README-WPS for
  479. more details
  480. * added IEEE 802.11n HT capability configuration (ht_capab)
  481. * added support for generating Country IE based on nl80211 regulatory
  482. information (added if ieee80211d=1 in configuration)
  483. * fixed WEP authentication (both Open System and Shared Key) with
  484. mac80211
  485. * added support for EAP-AKA' (draft-arkko-eap-aka-kdf)
  486. * added support for using driver_test over UDP socket
  487. * changed EAP-GPSK to use the IANA assigned EAP method type 51

  489. * fixed retransmission of EAP requests if no response is received
  490. 2008-11-23 - v0.6.6
  491. * added a new configuration option, wpa_ptk_rekey, that can be used to
  492. enforce frequent PTK rekeying, e.g., to mitigate some attacks against
  493. TKIP deficiencies
  494. * updated OpenSSL code for EAP-FAST to use an updated version of the
  495. session ticket overriding API that was included into the upstream
  496. OpenSSL 0.9.9 tree on 2008-11-15 (no additional OpenSSL patch is
  497. needed with that version anymore)
  498. * changed channel flags configuration to read the information from
  499. the driver (e.g., via driver_nl80211 when using mac80211) instead of
  500. using hostapd as the source of the regulatory information (i.e.,
  501. information from CRDA is now used with mac80211); this allows 5 GHz
  502. channels to be used with hostapd (if allowed in the current
  503. regulatory domain)
  504. * fixed EAP-TLS message processing for the last TLS message if it is
  505. large enough to require fragmentation (e.g., if a large Session
  506. Ticket data is included)
  507. * fixed listen interval configuration for nl80211 drivers
  508. 2008-11-01 - v0.6.5
  509. * added support for SHA-256 as X.509 certificate digest when using the
  510. internal X.509/TLSv1 implementation
  511. * fixed EAP-FAST PAC-Opaque padding (0.6.4 broke this for some peer
  512. identity lengths)
  513. * fixed internal TLSv1 implementation for abbreviated handshake (used
  514. by EAP-FAST server)
  515. * added support for setting VLAN ID for STAs based on local MAC ACL
  516. (accept_mac_file) as an alternative for RADIUS server-based
  517. configuration
  518. * updated management frame protection to use IEEE 802.11w/D6.0
  519. (adds a new association ping to protect against unauthenticated
  520. authenticate or (re)associate request frames dropping association)
  521. * added support for using SHA256-based stronger key derivation for WPA2
  522. (IEEE 802.11w)
  523. * added new "driver wrapper" for RADIUS-only configuration
  524. (driver=none in hostapd.conf; CONFIG_DRIVER_NONE=y in .config)
  525. * fixed WPA/RSN IE validation to verify that the proto (WPA vs. WPA2)
  526. is enabled in configuration
  527. * changed EAP-FAST configuration to use separate fields for A-ID and
  528. A-ID-Info (eap_fast_a_id_info) to allow A-ID to be set to a fixed
  529. 16-octet len binary value for better interoperability with some peer
  530. implementations; eap_fast_a_id is now configured as a hex string
  531. * driver_nl80211: Updated to match the current Linux mac80211 AP mode
  532. configuration (wireless-testing.git and Linux kernel releases
  533. starting from 2.6.29)
  534. 2008-08-10 - v0.6.4
  535. * added peer identity into EAP-FAST PAC-Opaque and skip Phase 2
  536. Identity Request if identity is already known
  537. * added support for EAP Sequences in EAP-FAST Phase 2
  538. * added support for EAP-TNC (Trusted Network Connect)
  539. (this version implements the EAP-TNC method and EAP-TTLS/EAP-FAST
  540. changes needed to run two methods in sequence (IF-T) and the IF-IMV
  541. and IF-TNCCS interfaces from TNCS)
  542. * added support for optional cryptobinding with PEAPv0
  543. * added fragmentation support for EAP-TNC
  544. * added support for fragmenting EAP-TTLS/PEAP/FAST Phase 2 (tunneled)
  545. data
  546. * added support for opportunistic key caching (OKC)
  547. 2008-02-22 - v0.6.3
  548. * fixed Reassociation Response callback processing when using internal
  549. MLME (driver_{hostap,nl80211,test}.c)
  550. * updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D9.0
  551. * copy optional Proxy-State attributes into RADIUS response when acting
  552. as a RADIUS authentication server
  553. * fixed EAPOL state machine to handle a case in which no response is
  554. received from the RADIUS authentication server; previous version
  555. could have triggered a crash in some cases after a timeout
  556. * fixed EAP-SIM/AKA realm processing to allow decorated usernames to
  557. be used
  558. * added a workaround for EAP-SIM/AKA peers that include incorrect null
  559. termination in the username
  560. * fixed EAP-SIM/AKA protected result indication to include AT_COUNTER
  561. attribute in notification messages only when using fast
  562. reauthentication
  563. * fixed EAP-SIM Start response processing for fast reauthentication
  564. case
  565. * added support for pending EAP processing in EAP-{PEAP,TTLS,FAST}
  566. phase 2 to allow EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA to be used as the Phase 2 method
  567. 2008-01-01 - v0.6.2
  568. * fixed EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA message parser to validate attribute
  569. lengths properly to avoid potential crash caused by invalid messages
  570. * added data structure for storing allocated buffers (struct wpabuf);
  571. this does not affect hostapd usage, but many of the APIs changed
  572. and various interfaces (e.g., EAP) is not compatible with old
  573. versions
  574. * added support for protecting EAP-AKA/Identity messages with
  575. AT_CHECKCODE (optional feature in RFC 4187)
  576. * added support for protected result indication with AT_RESULT_IND for
  577. EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA (eap_sim_aka_result_ind=1)
  578. * added support for configuring EAP-TTLS phase 2 non-EAP methods in
  579. EAP server configuration; previously all four were enabled for every
  580. phase 2 user, now all four are disabled by default and need to be
  581. enabled with new method names TTLS-PAP, TTLS-CHAP, TTLS-MSCHAP,
  582. TTLS-MSCHAPV2
  583. * removed old debug printing mechanism and the related 'debug'
  584. parameter in the configuration file; debug verbosity is now set with
  585. -d (or -dd) command line arguments
  586. * added support for EAP-IKEv2 (draft-tschofenig-eap-ikev2-15.txt);
  587. only shared key/password authentication is supported in this version
  588. 2007-11-24 - v0.6.1
  589. * added experimental, integrated TLSv1 server implementation with the
  590. needed X.509/ASN.1/RSA/bignum processing (this can be enabled by
  591. setting CONFIG_TLS=internal and CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH=y in
  592. .config); this can be useful, e.g., if the target system does not
  593. have a suitable TLS library and a minimal code size is required
  594. * added support for EAP-FAST server method to the integrated EAP
  595. server
  596. * updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
  597. draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-07.txt)
  598. * added a new configuration parameter, rsn_pairwise, to allow different
  599. pairwise cipher suites to be enabled for WPA and RSN/WPA2
  600. (note: if wpa_pairwise differs from rsn_pairwise, the driver will
  601. either need to support this or will have to use the WPA/RSN IEs from
  602. hostapd; currently, the included madwifi and bsd driver interfaces do
  603. not have support for this)
  604. * updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D8.0
  605. 2007-05-28 - v0.6.0
  606. * added experimental IEEE 802.11r/D6.0 support
  607. * updated EAP-SAKE to RFC 4763 and the IANA-allocated EAP type 48
  608. * updated EAP-PSK to use the IANA-allocated EAP type 47
  609. * fixed EAP-PSK bit ordering of the Flags field
  610. * fixed configuration reloading (SIGHUP) to re-initialize WPA PSKs
  611. by reading wpa_psk_file [Bug 181]
  612. * fixed EAP-TTLS AVP parser processing for too short AVP lengths
  613. * fixed IPv6 connection to RADIUS accounting server
  614. * updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
  615. draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-04.txt)
  616. * hlr_auc_gw: read GSM triplet file into memory and rotate through the
  617. entries instead of only using the same three triplets every time
  618. (this does not work properly with tests using multiple clients, but
  619. provides bit better triplet data for testing a single client; anyway,
  620. if a better quality triplets are needed, GSM-Milenage should be used
  621. instead of hardcoded triplet file)
  622. * fixed EAP-MSCHAPv2 server to use a space between S and M parameters
  623. in Success Request [Bug 203]
  624. * added support for sending EAP-AKA Notifications in error cases
  625. * updated to use IEEE 802.11w/D2.0 for management frame protection
  626. (still experimental)
  627. * RADIUS server: added support for processing duplicate messages
  628. (retransmissions from RADIUS client) by replying with the previous
  629. reply
  630. 2006-11-24 - v0.5.6
  631. * added support for configuring and controlling multiple BSSes per
  632. radio interface (bss=<ifname> in hostapd.conf); this is only
  633. available with Devicescape and test driver interfaces
  634. * fixed PMKSA cache update in the end of successful RSN
  635. pre-authentication
  636. * added support for dynamic VLAN configuration (i.e., selecting VLAN-ID
  637. for each STA based on RADIUS Access-Accept attributes); this requires
  638. VLAN support from the kernel driver/802.11 stack and this is
  639. currently only available with Devicescape and test driver interfaces
  640. * driver_madwifi: fixed configuration of unencrypted modes (plaintext
  641. and IEEE 802.1X without WEP)
  642. * removed STAKey handshake since PeerKey handshake has replaced it in
  643. IEEE 802.11ma and there are no known deployments of STAKey
  644. * updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
  645. draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-01.txt)
  646. * added preliminary implementation of IEEE 802.11w/D1.0 (management
  647. frame protection)
  648. (Note: this requires driver support to work properly.)
  649. (Note2: IEEE 802.11w is an unapproved draft and subject to change.)
  650. * hlr_auc_gw: added support for GSM-Milenage (for EAP-SIM)
  651. * hlr_auc_gw: added support for reading per-IMSI Milenage keys and
  652. parameters from a text file to make it possible to implement proper
  653. GSM/UMTS authentication server for multiple SIM/USIM cards using
  654. EAP-SIM/EAP-AKA
  655. * fixed session timeout processing with drivers that do not use
  656. ieee802_11.c (e.g., madwifi)
  657. 2006-08-27 - v0.5.5
  658. * added 'hostapd_cli new_sta <addr>' command for adding a new STA into
  659. hostapd (e.g., to initialize wired network authentication based on an
  660. external signal)
  661. * fixed hostapd to add PMKID KDE into 4-Way Handshake Message 1 when
  662. using WPA2 even if PMKSA caching is not used
  663. * added -P<pid file> argument for hostapd to write the current process
  664. id into a file
  665. * added support for RADIUS Authentication Server MIB (RFC 2619)
  666. 2006-06-20 - v0.5.4
  667. * fixed nt_password_hash build [Bug 144]
  668. * added PeerKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e
  669. direct link setup (DLS) to replace STAKey handshake
  670. * added support for EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK,
  671. draft-clancy-emu-eap-shared-secret-00.txt)
  672. * fixed a segmentation fault when RSN pre-authentication was completed
  673. successfully [Bug 152]
  674. 2006-04-27 - v0.5.3
  675. * do not build nt_password_hash and hlr_auc_gw by default to avoid
  676. requiring a TLS library for a successful build; these programs can be
  677. build with 'make nt_password_hash' and 'make hlr_auc_gw'
  678. * added a new configuration option, eapol_version, that can be used to
  679. set EAPOL version to 1 (default is 2) to work around broken client
  680. implementations that drop EAPOL frames which use version number 2
  681. [Bug 89]
  682. * added support for EAP-SAKE (no EAP method number allocated yet, so
  683. this is using the same experimental type 255 as EAP-PSK)
  684. * fixed EAP-MSCHAPv2 message length validation
  685. 2006-03-19 - v0.5.2
  686. * fixed stdarg use in hostapd_logger(): if both stdout and syslog
  687. logging was enabled, hostapd could trigger a segmentation fault in
  688. vsyslog on some CPU -- C library combinations
  689. * moved HLR/AuC gateway implementation for EAP-SIM/AKA into an external
  690. program to make it easier to use for implementing real SS7 gateway;
  691. eap_sim_db is not anymore used as a file name for GSM authentication
  692. triplets; instead, it is path to UNIX domain socket that will be used
  693. to communicate with the external gateway program (e.g., hlr_auc_gw)
  694. * added example HLR/AuC gateway implementation, hlr_auc_gw, that uses
  695. local information (GSM authentication triplets from a text file and
  696. hardcoded AKA authentication data); this can be used to test EAP-SIM
  697. and EAP-AKA
  698. * added Milenage algorithm (example 3GPP AKA algorithm) to hlr_auc_gw
  699. to make it possible to test EAP-AKA with real USIM cards (this is
  700. disabled by default; define AKA_USE_MILENAGE when building hlr_auc_gw
  701. to enable this)
  702. * driver_madwifi: added support for getting station RSN IE from
  703. madwifi-ng svn r1453 and newer; this fixes RSN that was apparently
  704. broken with earlier change (r1357) in the driver
  705. * changed EAP method registration to use a dynamic list of methods
  706. instead of a static list generated at build time
  707. * fixed WPA message 3/4 not to encrypt Key Data field (WPA IE)
  708. [Bug 125]
  709. * added ap_max_inactivity configuration parameter
  710. 2006-01-29 - v0.5.1
  711. * driver_test: added better support for multiple APs and STAs by using
  712. a directory with sockets that include MAC address for each device in
  713. the name (test_socket=DIR:/tmp/test)
  714. * added support for EAP expanded type (vendor specific EAP methods)
  715. 2005-12-18 - v0.5.0 (beginning of 0.5.x development releases)
  716. * added experimental STAKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e
  717. direct link setup (DLS); note: this is disabled by default in both
  718. build and runtime configuration (can be enabled with CONFIG_STAKEY=y
  719. and stakey=1)
  720. * added support for EAP methods to use callbacks to external programs
  721. by buffering a pending request and processing it after the EAP method
  722. is ready to continue
  723. * improved EAP-SIM database interface to allow external request to GSM
  724. HLR/AuC without blocking hostapd process
  725. * added support for using EAP-SIM pseudonyms and fast re-authentication
  726. * added support for EAP-AKA in the integrated EAP authenticator
  727. * added support for matching EAP identity prefixes (e.g., "1"*) in EAP
  728. user database to allow EAP-SIM/AKA selection without extra roundtrip
  729. for EAP-Nak negotiation
  730. * added support for storing EAP user password as NtPasswordHash instead
  731. of plaintext password when using MSCHAP or MSCHAPv2 for
  732. authentication (hash:<16-octet hex value>); added nt_password_hash
  733. tool for hashing password to generate NtPasswordHash
  734. 2005-11-20 - v0.4.7 (beginning of 0.4.x stable releases)
  735. * driver_wired: fixed EAPOL sending to optionally use PAE group address
  736. as the destination instead of supplicant MAC address; this is
  737. disabled by default, but should be enabled with use_pae_group_addr=1
  738. in configuration file if the wired interface is used by only one
  739. device at the time (common switch configuration)
  740. * driver_madwifi: configure driver to use TKIP countermeasures in order
  741. to get correct behavior (IEEE 802.11 association failing; previously,
  742. association succeeded, but hostpad forced disassociation immediately)
  743. * driver_madwifi: added support for madwifi-ng
  744. 2005-10-27 - v0.4.6
  745. * added support for replacing user identity from EAP with RADIUS
  746. User-Name attribute from Access-Accept message, if that is included,
  747. for the RADIUS accounting messages (e.g., for EAP-PEAP/TTLS to get
  748. tunneled identity into accounting messages when the RADIUS server
  749. does not support better way of doing this with Class attribute)
  750. * driver_madwifi: fixed EAPOL packet receive for configuration where
  751. ath# is part of a bridge interface
  752. * added a configuration file and log analyzer script for logwatch
  753. * fixed EAPOL state machine step function to process all state
  754. transitions before processing new events; this resolves a race
  755. condition in which EAPOL-Start message could trigger hostapd to send
  756. two EAP-Response/Identity frames to the authentication server
  757. 2005-09-25 - v0.4.5
  758. * added client CA list to the TLS certificate request in order to make
  759. it easier for the client to select which certificate to use
  760. * added experimental support for EAP-PSK
  761. * added support for WE-19 (hostap, madwifi)
  762. 2005-08-21 - v0.4.4
  763. * fixed build without CONFIG_RSN_PREAUTH
  764. * fixed FreeBSD build
  765. 2005-06-26 - v0.4.3
  766. * fixed PMKSA caching to copy User-Name and Class attributes so that
  767. RADIUS accounting gets correct information
  768. * start RADIUS accounting only after successful completion of WPA
  769. 4-Way Handshake if WPA-PSK is used
  770. * fixed PMKSA caching for the case where STA (re)associates without
  771. first disassociating
  772. 2005-06-12 - v0.4.2
  773. * EAP-PAX is now registered as EAP type 46
  774. * fixed EAP-PAX MAC calculation
  775. * fixed EAP-PAX CK and ICK key derivation
  776. * renamed eap_authenticator configuration variable to eap_server to
  777. better match with RFC 3748 (EAP) terminology
  778. * driver_test: added support for testing hostapd with wpa_supplicant
  779. by using test driver interface without any kernel drivers or network
  780. cards
  781. 2005-05-22 - v0.4.1
  782. * fixed RADIUS server initialization when only auth or acct server
  783. is configured and the other one is left empty
  784. * driver_madwifi: added support for RADIUS accounting
  785. * driver_madwifi: added preliminary support for compiling against 'BSD'
  786. branch of madwifi CVS tree
  787. * driver_madwifi: fixed pairwise key removal to allow WPA reauth
  788. without disassociation
  789. * added support for reading additional certificates from PKCS#12 files
  790. and adding them to the certificate chain
  791. * fixed RADIUS Class attribute processing to only use Access-Accept
  792. packets to update Class; previously, other RADIUS authentication
  793. packets could have cleared Class attribute
  794. * added support for more than one Class attribute in RADIUS packets
  795. * added support for verifying certificate revocation list (CRL) when
  796. using integrated EAP authenticator for EAP-TLS; new hostapd.conf
  797. options 'check_crl'; CRL must be included in the ca_cert file for now
  798. 2005-04-25 - v0.4.0 (beginning of 0.4.x development releases)
  799. * added support for including network information into
  800. EAP-Request/Identity message (ASCII-0 (nul) in eap_message)
  801. (e.g., to implement draft-adrange-eap-network-discovery-07.txt)
  802. * fixed a bug which caused some RSN pre-authentication cases to use
  803. freed memory and potentially crash hostapd
  804. * fixed private key loading for cases where passphrase is not set
  805. * added support for sending TLS alerts and aborting authentication
  806. when receiving a TLS alert
  807. * fixed WPA2 to add PMKSA cache entry when using integrated EAP
  808. authenticator
  809. * fixed PMKSA caching (EAP authentication was not skipped correctly
  810. with the new state machine changes from IEEE 802.1X draft)
  811. * added support for RADIUS over IPv6; own_ip_addr, auth_server_addr,
  812. and acct_server_addr can now be IPv6 addresses (CONFIG_IPV6=y needs
  813. to be added to .config to include IPv6 support); for RADIUS server,
  814. radius_server_ipv6=1 needs to be set in hostapd.conf and addresses
  815. in RADIUS clients file can then use IPv6 format
  816. * added experimental support for EAP-PAX
  817. * replaced hostapd control interface library (hostapd_ctrl.[ch]) with
  818. the same implementation that wpa_supplicant is using (wpa_ctrl.[ch])
  819. 2005-02-12 - v0.3.7 (beginning of 0.3.x stable releases)
  820. 2005-01-23 - v0.3.5
  821. * added support for configuring a forced PEAP version based on the
  822. Phase 1 identity
  823. * fixed PEAPv1 to use tunneled EAP-Success/Failure instead of EAP-TLV
  824. to terminate authentication
  825. * fixed EAP identifier duplicate processing with the new IEEE 802.1X
  826. draft
  827. * clear accounting data in the driver when starting a new accounting
  828. session
  829. * driver_madwifi: filter wireless events based on ifindex to allow more
  830. than one network interface to be used
  831. * fixed WPA message 2/4 processing not to cancel timeout for TimeoutEvt
  832. setting if the packet does not pass MIC verification (e.g., due to
  833. incorrect PSK); previously, message 1/4 was not tried again if an
  834. invalid message 2/4 was received
  835. * fixed reconfiguration of RADIUS client retransmission timer when
  836. adding a new message to the pending list; previously, timer was not
  837. updated at this point and if there was a pending message with long
  838. time for the next retry, the new message needed to wait that long for
  839. its first retry, too
  840. 2005-01-09 - v0.3.4
  841. * added support for configuring multiple allowed EAP types for Phase 2
  842. authentication (EAP-PEAP, EAP-TTLS)
  843. * fixed EAPOL-Start processing to trigger WPA reauthentication
  844. (previously, only EAPOL authentication was done)
  845. 2005-01-02 - v0.3.3
  846. * added support for EAP-PEAP in the integrated EAP authenticator
  847. * added support for EAP-GTC in the integrated EAP authenticator
  848. * added support for configuring list of EAP methods for Phase 1 so that
  849. the integrated EAP authenticator can, e.g., use the wildcard entry
  850. for EAP-TLS and EAP-PEAP
  851. * added support for EAP-TTLS in the integrated EAP authenticator
  852. * added support for EAP-SIM in the integrated EAP authenticator
  853. * added support for using hostapd as a RADIUS authentication server
  854. with the integrated EAP authenticator taking care of EAP
  855. authentication (new hostapd.conf options: radius_server_clients and
  856. radius_server_auth_port); this is not included in default build; use
  857. CONFIG_RADIUS_SERVER=y in .config to include
  858. 2004-12-19 - v0.3.2
  859. * removed 'daemonize' configuration file option since it has not really
  860. been used at all for more than year
  861. * driver_madwifi: fixed group key setup and added get_ssid method
  862. * added support for EAP-MSCHAPv2 in the integrated EAP authenticator
  863. 2004-12-12 - v0.3.1
  864. * added support for integrated EAP-TLS authentication (new hostapd.conf
  865. variables: ca_cert, server_cert, private_key, private_key_passwd);
  866. this enabled dynamic keying (WPA2/WPA/IEEE 802.1X/WEP) without
  867. external RADIUS server
  868. * added support for reading PKCS#12 (PFX) files (as a replacement for
  869. PEM/DER) to get certificate and private key (CONFIG_PKCS12)
  870. 2004-12-05 - v0.3.0 (beginning of 0.3.x development releases)
  871. * added support for Acct-{Input,Output}-Gigawords
  872. * added support for Event-Timestamp (in RADIUS Accounting-Requests)
  873. * added support for RADIUS Authentication Client MIB (RFC2618)
  874. * added support for RADIUS Accounting Client MIB (RFC2620)
  875. * made EAP re-authentication period configurable (eap_reauth_period)
  876. * fixed EAPOL reauthentication to trigger WPA/WPA2 reauthentication
  877. * fixed EAPOL state machine to stop if STA is removed during
  878. eapol_sm_step(); this fixes at least one segfault triggering bug with
  879. IEEE 802.11i pre-authentication
  880. * added support for multiple WPA pre-shared keys (e.g., one for each
  881. client MAC address or keys shared by a group of clients);
  882. new hostapd.conf field wpa_psk_file for setting path to a text file
  883. containing PSKs, see hostapd.wpa_psk for an example
  884. * added support for multiple driver interfaces to allow hostapd to be
  885. used with other drivers
  886. * added wired authenticator driver interface (driver=wired in
  887. hostapd.conf, see wired.conf for example configuration)
  888. * added madwifi driver interface (driver=madwifi in hostapd.conf, see
  889. madwifi.conf for example configuration; Note: include files from
  890. madwifi project is needed for building and a configuration file,
  891. .config, needs to be created in hostapd directory with
  892. CONFIG_DRIVER_MADWIFI=y to include this driver interface in hostapd
  893. build)
  894. * fixed an alignment issue that could cause SHA-1 to fail on some
  895. platforms (e.g., Intel ixp425 with a compiler that does not 32-bit
  896. align variables)
  897. * fixed RADIUS reconnection after an error in sending interim
  898. accounting packets
  899. * added hostapd control interface for external programs and an example
  900. CLI, hostapd_cli (like wpa_cli for wpa_supplicant)
  901. * started adding dot11, dot1x, radius MIBs ('hostapd_cli mib',
  902. 'hostapd_cli sta <addr>')
  903. * finished update from IEEE 802.1X-2001 to IEEE 802.1X-REV (now d11)
  904. * added support for strict GTK rekeying (wpa_strict_rekey in
  905. hostapd.conf)
  906. * updated IAPP to use UDP port 3517 and multicast address 224.0.1.178
  907. (instead of broadcast) for IAPP ADD-notify (moved from draft 3 to
  908. IEEE 802.11F-2003)
  909. * added Prism54 driver interface (driver=prism54 in hostapd.conf;
  910. note: .config needs to be created in hostapd directory with
  911. CONFIG_DRIVER_PRISM54=y to include this driver interface in hostapd
  912. build)
  913. * dual-licensed hostapd (GPLv2 and BSD licenses)
  914. * fixed RADIUS accounting to generate a new session id for cases where
  915. a station reassociates without first being complete deauthenticated
  916. * fixed STA disassociation handler to mark next timeout state to
  917. deauthenticate the station, i.e., skip long wait for inactivity poll
  918. and extra disassociation, if the STA disassociates without
  919. deauthenticating
  920. * added integrated EAP authenticator that can be used instead of
  921. external RADIUS authentication server; currently, only EAP-MD5 is
  922. supported, so this cannot yet be used for key distribution; the EAP
  923. method interface is generic, though, so adding new EAP methods should
  924. be straightforward; new hostapd.conf variables: 'eap_authenticator'
  925. and 'eap_user_file'; this obsoletes "minimal authentication server"
  926. ('minimal_eap' in hostapd.conf) which is now removed
  927. * added support for FreeBSD and driver interface for the BSD net80211
  928. layer (driver=bsd in hostapd.conf and CONFIG_DRIVER_BSD=y in
  929. .config); please note that some of the required kernel mods have not
  930. yet been committed
  931. 2004-07-17 - v0.2.4 (beginning of 0.2.x stable releases)
  932. * fixed some accounting cases where Accounting-Start was sent when
  933. IEEE 802.1X port was being deauthorized
  934. 2004-06-20 - v0.2.3
  935. * modified RADIUS client to re-connect the socket in case of certain
  936. error codes that are generated when a network interface state is
  937. changes (e.g., when IP address changes or the interface is set UP)
  938. * fixed couple of cases where EAPOL state for a station was freed
  939. twice causing a segfault for hostapd
  940. * fixed couple of bugs in processing WPA deauthentication (freed data
  941. was used)
  942. 2004-05-31 - v0.2.2
  943. * fixed WPA/WPA2 group rekeying to use key index correctly (GN/GM)
  944. * fixed group rekeying to send zero TSC in EAPOL-Key messages to fix
  945. cases where STAs dropped multicast frames as replay attacks
  946. * added support for copying RADIUS Attribute 'Class' from
  947. authentication messages into accounting messages
  948. * send canned EAP failure if RADIUS server sends Access-Reject without
  949. EAP message (previously, Supplicant was not notified in this case)
  950. * fixed mixed WPA-PSK and WPA-EAP mode to work with WPA-PSK (i.e., do
  951. not start EAPOL state machines if the STA selected to use WPA-PSK)
  952. 2004-05-06 - v0.2.1
  953. * added WPA and IEEE 802.11i/RSN (WPA2) Authenticator functionality
  954. - based on IEEE 802.11i/D10.0 but modified to interoperate with WPA
  955. (i.e., IEEE 802.11i/D3.0)
  956. - supports WPA-only, RSN-only, and mixed WPA/RSN mode
  957. - both WPA-PSK and WPA-RADIUS/EAP are supported
  958. - PMKSA caching and pre-authentication
  959. - new hostapd.conf variables: wpa, wpa_psk, wpa_passphrase,
  960. wpa_key_mgmt, wpa_pairwise, wpa_group_rekey, wpa_gmk_rekey,
  961. rsn_preauth, rsn_preauth_interfaces
  962. * fixed interim accounting to remove any pending accounting messages
  963. to the STA before sending a new one
  964. 2004-02-15 - v0.2.0
  965. * added support for Acct-Interim-Interval:
  966. - draft-ietf-radius-acct-interim-01.txt
  967. - use Acct-Interim-Interval attribute from Access-Accept if local
  968. 'radius_acct_interim_interval' is not set
  969. - allow different update intervals for each STA
  970. * fixed event loop to call signal handlers only after returning from
  971. the real signal handler
  972. * reset sta->timeout_next after successful association to make sure
  973. that the previously registered inactivity timer will not remove the
  974. STA immediately (e.g., if STA deauthenticates and re-associates
  975. before the timer is triggered).
  976. * added new hostapd.conf variable, nas_identifier, that can be used to
  977. add an optional RADIUS Attribute, NAS-Identifier, into authentication
  978. and accounting messages
  979. * added support for Accounting-On and Accounting-Off messages
  980. * fixed accounting session handling to send Accounting-Start only once
  981. per session and not to send Accounting-Stop if the session was not
  982. initialized properly
  983. * fixed Accounting-Stop statistics in cases where the message was
  984. previously sent after the kernel entry for the STA (and/or IEEE
  985. 802.1X data) was removed
  986. Note:
  987. Older changes up to and including v0.1.0 are included in the ChangeLog
  988. of the Host AP driver.
