  49. * changed P2P GO mode configuration to use driver capabilities to
  50. automatically enable HT operations when supported
  51. * added "wpa_cli status wps" command to fetch WPA2-Personal passhrase
  52. for WPS use cases in AP mode
  53. * EAP-AKA: keep pseudonym identity across EAP exchanges to match EAP-SIM
  54. behavior
  55. * improved reassociation behavior in cases where association is rejected
  56. or when an AP disconnects us to handle common load balancing
  57. mechanisms
  58. - try to avoid extra scans when the needed information is available
  59. * added optional "join" argument for p2p_prov_disc ctrl_iface command
  60. * added group ifname to P2P-PROV-DISC-* events

  62. p2p_dev_addr parameter name with AP-STA-CONNECTED
  63. * added workarounds for WPS PBC overlap detection for some P2P use cases
  64. where deployed stations work incorrectly
  65. * optimize WPS connection speed by disconnecting prior to WPS scan and
  66. by using single channel scans when AP channel is known
  67. * PCSC and SIM/USIM improvements:
  68. - accept 0x67 (Wrong length) as a response to READ RECORD to fix
  69. issues with some USIM cards
  70. - try to read MNC length from SIM/USIM
  71. - build realm according to 3GPP TS 23.003 with identity from the SIM
  72. - allow T1 protocol to be enabled
  73. * added more WPS and P2P information available through D-Bus
  74. * improve P2P negotiation robustness

  283. before requesting a new scan after failing to find a suitable
  284. network in scan results) using scan_interval command.
  285. - Add event CTRL-EVENT-ASSOC-REJECT for association rejected.
  286. - Add command get version, that returns wpa_supplicant version string.
  287. - Add command sta_autoconnect for disabling automatic reconnection
  288. on receiving disconnection event.
  289. - Setting bssid parameter to an empty string "" or any can now be

  306. line editing and history support. This can be used as a replacement
  307. for CONFIG_READLINE=y.
  308. * AP mode: Add max_num_sta config option, which can be used to limit
  309. the number of stations allowed to connect to the AP.
  310. * Add WPA_IGNORE_CONFIG_ERRORS build option to continue in case of bad
  311. config file.
  312. * wext: Increase scan timeout from 5 to 10 seconds.

  328. - Cancel WPS operation on PBC session overlap detection.
  329. - New wps_cancel command in wpa_cli will cancel a pending WPS
  330. operation.
  331. - wpa_cli action: Add WPS_EVENT_SUCCESS and WPS_EVENT_FAIL handlers.
  332. - Trigger WPS config update on Manufacturer, Model Name, Model
  333. Number, and Serial Number changes.
  334. - Fragment size is now configurable for EAP-WSC peer. Use
  335. wpa_cli set wps_fragment_size <val>.
  336. - Disable AP PIN after 10 consecutive failures. Slow down attacks on
  337. failures up to 10.
  338. - Allow AP to start in Enrollee mode without AP PIN for probing, to
  339. be compatible with Windows 7.
  340. - Add Config Error into WPS-FAIL events to provide more info to the
  341. user on how to resolve the issue.
  342. - Label and Display config methods are not allowed to be enabled
  343. at the same time, since it is unclear which PIN to use if both
  344. methods are advertised.
  345. - When controlling multiple interfaces:
  346. - apply WPS commands to all interfaces configured to use WPS
  347. - apply WPS config changes to all interfaces that use WPS
  348. - when an attack is detected on any interface, disable AP PIN on
  349. all interfaces
  350. * WPS ER:
  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. - Show SetSelectedRegistrar events as ctrl_iface events
  355. - Add wps_er_set_config to enroll a network based on a local
  356. network configuration block instead of having to (re-)learn the
  357. current AP settings with wps_er_learn.
  358. - Allow AP filtering based on IP address, add ctrl_iface event for
  359. learned AP settings, add wps_er_config command to configure an AP.

  368. add them as driver capability flags. If the driver doesn't support
  369. capabilities, assume TDLS is supported internally. When TDLS is
  370. explicitly not supported, disable all user facing TDLS operations.
  371. - Allow TDLS to be disabled at runtime (mostly for testing).
  372. Use set tdls_disabled.
  373. - Honor AP TDLS settings that prohibit/allow TDLS.
  374. - Add a special testing feature for changing TDLS behavior. Use
  375. CONFIG_TDLS_TESTING build param to enable. Configure at runtime
  376. with tdls_testing cli command.
  377. - Add support for TDLS 802.11z.
  378. * wlantest: Add a tool wlantest for IEEE802.11 protocol testing.
  379. wlantest can be used to capture frames from a monitor interface
  380. for realtime capturing or from pcap files for offline analysis.
  381. * Interworking: Support added for 802.11u. Enable in .config with
  382. CONFIG_INTERWORKING. See wpa_supplicant.conf for config parameters

  384. interworking_select, interworking_connect, anqp_get, fetch_anqp,
  385. and stop_fetch_anqp.
  386. * Android: Add build and runtime support for Android wpa_supplicant.
  387. * bgscan learn: Add new bgscan that learns BSS information based on
  388. previous scans, and uses that information to dynamically generate
  389. the list of channels for background scans.

  404. 2010-04-18 - v0.7.2
  405. * nl80211: fixed number of issues with roaming
  406. * avoid unnecessary roaming if multiple APs with similar signal
  407. strength are present in scan results
  408. * add TLS client events and server probing to ease design of
  409. automatic detection of EAP parameters
  410. * add option for server certificate matching (SHA256 hash of the
  411. certificate) instead of trusted CA certificate configuration
  412. * bsd: Cleaned up driver wrapper and added various low-level
  413. configuration options
  414. * wpa_gui-qt4: do not show too frequent WPS AP available events as
  415. tray messages
  416. * TNC: fixed issues with fragmentation
  417. * EAP-TNC: add Flags field into fragment acknowledgement (needed to
  418. interoperate with other implementations; may potentially breaks
  419. compatibility with older wpa_supplicant/hostapd versions)
  420. * wpa_cli: added option for using a separate process to receive event
  421. messages to reduce latency in showing these
  422. (CFLAGS += -DCONFIG_WPA_CLI_FORK=y in .config to enable this)
  423. * maximum BSS table size can now be configured (bss_max_count)
  424. * BSSes to be included in the BSS table can be filtered based on
  425. configured SSIDs to save memory (filter_ssids)
  426. * fix number of issues with IEEE 802.11r/FT; this version is not
  427. backwards compatible with old versions
  428. * nl80211: add support for IEEE 802.11r/FT protocol (both over-the-air
  429. and over-the-DS)
  430. * add freq_list network configuration parameter to allow the AP
  431. selection to filter out entries based on the operating channel
  432. * add signal strength change events for bgscan; this allows more
  433. dynamic changes to background scanning interval based on changes in
  434. the signal strength with the current AP; this improves roaming within
  435. ESS quite a bit, e.g., with bgscan="simple:30:-45:300" in the network
  436. configuration block to request background scans less frequently when
  437. signal strength remains good and to automatically trigger background
  438. scans whenever signal strength drops noticeably
  439. (this is currently only available with nl80211)
  440. * add BSSID and reason code (if available) to disconnect event messages
  441. * wpa_gui-qt4: more complete support for translating the GUI with
  442. linguist and add German translation
  443. * fix DH padding with internal crypto code (mainly, for WPS)
  444. * do not trigger initial scan automatically anymore if there are no
  445. enabled networks
  446. 2010-01-16 - v0.7.1
  447. * cleaned up driver wrapper API (struct wpa_driver_ops); the new API
  448. is not fully backwards compatible, so out-of-tree driver wrappers
  449. will need modifications
  450. * cleaned up various module interfaces
  451. * merge hostapd and wpa_supplicant developers' documentation into a
  452. single document
  453. * nl80211: use explicit deauthentication to clear cfg80211 state to
  454. avoid issues when roaming between APs
  455. * dbus: major design changes in the new D-Bus API
  456. (fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1)
  457. * nl80211: added support for IBSS networks
  458. * added internal debugging mechanism with backtrace support and memory
  459. allocation/freeing validation, etc. tests (CONFIG_WPA_TRACE=y)
  460. * added WPS ER unsubscription command to more cleanly unregister from
  461. receiving UPnP events when ER is terminated
  462. * cleaned up AP mode operations to avoid need for virtual driver_ops
  463. wrapper
  464. * added BSS table to maintain more complete scan result information
  465. over multiple scans (that may include only partial results)
  466. * wpa_gui-qt4: update Peers dialog information more dynamically while
  467. the dialog is kept open
  468. * fixed PKCS#12 use with OpenSSL 1.0.0
  469. * driver_wext: Added cfg80211-specific optimization to avoid some
  470. unnecessary scans and to speed up association
  471. 2009-11-21 - v0.7.0
  472. * increased wpa_cli ping interval to 5 seconds and made this
  473. configurable with a new command line options (-G<seconds>)
  474. * fixed scan buffer processing with WEXT to handle up to 65535
  475. byte result buffer (previously, limited to 32768 bytes)
  476. * allow multiple driver wrappers to be specified on command line
  477. (e.g., -Dnl80211,wext); the first one that is able to initialize the
  478. interface will be used
  479. * added support for multiple SSIDs per scan request to optimize
  480. scan_ssid=1 operations in ap_scan=1 mode (i.e., search for hidden
  481. SSIDs); this requires driver support and can currently be used only
  482. with nl80211
  483. * added support for WPS USBA out-of-band mechanism with USB Flash
  484. Drives (UFD) (CONFIG_WPS_UFD=y)
  485. * driver_ndis: add PAE group address to the multicast address list to
  486. fix wired IEEE 802.1X authentication
  487. * fixed IEEE 802.11r key derivation function to match with the standard
  488. (note: this breaks interoperability with previous version) [Bug 303]
  489. * added better support for drivers that allow separate authentication
  490. and association commands (e.g., mac80211-based Linux drivers with
  491. nl80211; SME in wpa_supplicant); this allows over-the-air FT protocol
  492. to be used (IEEE 802.11r)
  493. * fixed SHA-256 based key derivation function to match with the
  494. standard when using CCMP (for IEEE 802.11r and IEEE 802.11w)
  495. (note: this breaks interoperability with previous version) [Bug 307]
  496. * use shared driver wrapper files with hostapd
  497. * added AP mode functionality (CONFIG_AP=y) with mode=2 in the network
  498. block; this can be used for open and WPA2-Personal networks
  499. (optionally, with WPS); this links in parts of hostapd functionality
  500. into wpa_supplicant
  501. * wpa_gui-qt4: added new Peers dialog to show information about peers
  502. (other devices, including APs and stations, etc. in the neighborhood)
  503. * added support for WPS External Registrar functionality (configure APs
  504. and enroll new devices); can be used with wpa_gui-qt4 Peers dialog
  505. and wpa_cli commands wps_er_start, wps_er_stop, wps_er_pin,
  506. wps_er_pbc, wps_er_learn
  507. (this can also be used with a new 'none' driver wrapper if no
  508. wireless device or IEEE 802.1X on wired is needed)
  509. * driver_nl80211: multiple updates to provide support for new Linux
  510. nl80211/mac80211 functionality
  511. * updated management frame protection to use IEEE Std 802.11w-2009
  512. * fixed number of small WPS issues and added workarounds to
  513. interoperate with common deployed broken implementations
  514. * added support for NFC out-of-band mechanism with WPS
  515. * driver_ndis: fixed wired IEEE 802.1X authentication with PAE group
  516. address frames
  517. * added preliminary support for IEEE 802.11r RIC processing
  518. * added support for specifying subset of enabled frequencies to scan
  519. (scan_freq option in the network configuration block); this can speed
  520. up scanning process considerably if it is known that only a small
  521. subset of channels is actually used in the network (this is currently
  522. supported only with -Dnl80211)
  523. * added a workaround for race condition between receiving the
  524. association event and the following EAPOL-Key
  525. * added background scan and roaming infrastructure to allow
  526. network-specific optimizations to be used to improve roaming within
  527. an ESS (same SSID)
  528. * added new DBus interface (fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1)
  529. 2009-01-06 - v0.6.7
  530. * added support for Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)
  531. (wpa_supplicant can now be configured to act as a WPS Enrollee to
  532. enroll credentials for a network using PIN and PBC methods; in
  533. addition, wpa_supplicant can act as a wireless WPS Registrar to
  534. configure an AP); WPS support can be enabled by adding CONFIG_WPS=y
  535. into .config and setting the runtime configuration variables in
  536. wpa_supplicant.conf (see WPS section in the example configuration
  537. file); new wpa_cli commands wps_pin, wps_pbc, and wps_reg are used to
  538. manage WPS negotiation; see README-WPS for more details
  539. * added support for EAP-AKA' (draft-arkko-eap-aka-kdf)
  540. * added support for using driver_test over UDP socket
  541. * fixed PEAPv0 Cryptobinding interoperability issue with Windows Server
  542. 2008 NPS; optional cryptobinding is now enabled (again) by default
  543. * fixed PSK editing in wpa_gui
  544. * changed EAP-GPSK to use the IANA assigned EAP method type 51
  545. * added a Windows installer that includes WinPcap and all the needed
  546. DLLs; in addition, it set up the registry automatically so that user
  547. will only need start wpa_gui to get prompted to start the wpasvc
  548. servide and add a new interface if needed through wpa_gui dialog
  549. * updated management frame protection to use IEEE 802.11w/D7.0
  550. 2008-11-23 - v0.6.6
  551. * added Milenage SIM/USIM emulator for EAP-SIM/EAP-AKA
  552. (can be used to simulate test SIM/USIM card with a known private key;
  553. enable with CONFIG_SIM_SIMULATOR=y/CONFIG_USIM_SIMULATOR=y in .config
  554. and password="Ki:OPc"/password="Ki:OPc:SQN" in network configuration)
  555. * added a new network configuration option, wpa_ptk_rekey, that can be
  556. used to enforce frequent PTK rekeying, e.g., to mitigate some attacks
  557. against TKIP deficiencies
  558. * added an optional mitigation mechanism for certain attacks against
  559. TKIP by delaying Michael MIC error reports by a random amount of time
  560. between 0 and 60 seconds; this can be enabled with a build option
  561. CONFIG_DELAYED_MIC_ERROR_REPORT=y in .config
  562. * fixed EAP-AKA to use RES Length field in AT_RES as length in bits,
  563. not bytes
  564. * updated OpenSSL code for EAP-FAST to use an updated version of the
  565. session ticket overriding API that was included into the upstream
  566. OpenSSL 0.9.9 tree on 2008-11-15 (no additional OpenSSL patch is
  567. needed with that version anymore)
  568. * updated userspace MLME instructions to match with the current Linux
  569. mac80211 implementation; please also note that this can only be used
  570. with driver_nl80211.c (the old code from driver_wext.c was removed)
  571. * added support (Linux only) for RoboSwitch chipsets (often found in
  572. consumer grade routers); driver interface 'roboswitch'
  573. * fixed canceling of PMKSA caching when using drivers that generate
  574. RSN IE and refuse to drop PMKIDs that wpa_supplicant does not know
  575. about
  576. 2008-11-01 - v0.6.5
  577. * added support for SHA-256 as X.509 certificate digest when using the
  578. internal X.509/TLSv1 implementation
  579. * updated management frame protection to use IEEE 802.11w/D6.0
  580. * added support for using SHA256-based stronger key derivation for WPA2
  581. (IEEE 802.11w)
  582. * fixed FT (IEEE 802.11r) authentication after a failed association to
  583. use correct FTIE
  584. * added support for configuring Phase 2 (inner/tunneled) authentication
  585. method with wpa_gui-qt4
  586. 2008-08-10 - v0.6.4
  587. * added support for EAP Sequences in EAP-FAST Phase 2
  588. * added support for using TNC with EAP-FAST
  589. * added driver_ps3 for the PS3 Linux wireless driver
  590. * added support for optional cryptobinding with PEAPv0
  591. * fixed the OpenSSL patches (0.9.8g and 0.9.9) for EAP-FAST to
  592. allow fallback to full handshake if server rejects PAC-Opaque
  593. * added fragmentation support for EAP-TNC
  594. * added support for parsing PKCS #8 formatted private keys into the
  595. internal TLS implementation (both PKCS #1 RSA key and PKCS #8
  596. encapsulated RSA key can now be used)
  597. * added option of using faster, but larger, routines in the internal
  598. LibTomMath (for internal TLS implementation) to speed up DH and RSA
  599. calculations (CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH_FAST=y)
  600. * fixed race condition between disassociation event and group key
  601. handshake to avoid getting stuck in incorrect state [Bug 261]
  602. * fixed opportunistic key caching (proactive_key_caching)
  603. 2008-02-22 - v0.6.3
  604. * removed 'nai' and 'eappsk' network configuration variables that were
  605. previously used for configuring user identity and key for EAP-PSK,
  606. EAP-PAX, EAP-SAKE, and EAP-GPSK. 'identity' field is now used as the
  607. replacement for 'nai' (if old configuration used a separate
  608. 'identity' value, that would now be configured as
  609. 'anonymous_identity'). 'password' field is now used as the
  610. replacement for 'eappsk' (it can also be set using hexstring to
  611. present random binary data)
  612. * removed '-w' command line parameter (wait for interface to be added,
  613. if needed); cleaner way of handling this functionality is to use an
  614. external mechanism (e.g., hotplug scripts) that start wpa_supplicant
  615. when an interface is added
  616. * updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D9.0
  617. * added ctrl_iface monitor event (CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-RESULTS) for
  618. indicating when new scan results become available
  619. * added new ctrl_iface command, BSS, to allow scan results to be
  620. fetched without hitting the message size limits (this command
  621. can be used to iterate through the scan results one BSS at the time)
  622. * fixed EAP-SIM not to include AT_NONCE_MT and AT_SELECTED_VERSION
  623. attributes in EAP-SIM Start/Response when using fast reauthentication
  624. * fixed EAPOL not to end up in infinite loop when processing dynamic
  625. WEP keys with IEEE 802.1X
  626. * fixed problems in getting NDIS events from WMI on Windows 2000
  627. 2008-01-01 - v0.6.2
  628. * added support for Makefile builds to include debug-log-to-a-file
  629. functionality (CONFIG_DEBUG_FILE=y and -f<path> on command line)
  630. * fixed EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA message parser to validate attribute
  631. lengths properly to avoid potential crash caused by invalid messages
  632. * added data structure for storing allocated buffers (struct wpabuf);
  633. this does not affect wpa_supplicant usage, but many of the APIs
  634. changed and various interfaces (e.g., EAP) is not compatible with old
  635. versions
  636. * added support for protecting EAP-AKA/Identity messages with
  637. AT_CHECKCODE (optional feature in RFC 4187)
  638. * added support for protected result indication with AT_RESULT_IND for
  639. EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA (phase1="result_ind=1")
  640. * added driver_wext workaround for race condition between scanning and
  641. association with drivers that take very long time to scan all
  642. channels (e.g., madwifi with dual-band cards); wpa_supplicant is now
  643. using a longer hardcoded timeout for the scan if the driver supports
  644. notifications for scan completion (SIOCGIWSCAN event); this helps,
  645. e.g., in cases where wpa_supplicant and madwifi driver ended up in
  646. loop where the driver did not even try to associate
  647. * stop EAPOL timer tick when no timers are in use in order to reduce
  648. power consumption (no need to wake up the process once per second)
  649. [Bug 237]
  650. * added support for privilege separation (run only minimal part of
  651. wpa_supplicant functionality as root and rest as unprivileged,
  652. non-root process); see 'Privilege separation' in README for details;
  653. this is disabled by default and can be enabled with CONFIG_PRIVSEP=y
  654. in .config
  655. * changed scan results data structure to include all information
  656. elements to make it easier to support new IEs; old get_scan_result()
  657. driver_ops is still supported for backwards compatibility (results
  658. are converted internally to the new format), but all drivers should
  659. start using the new get_scan_results2() to make them more likely to
  660. work with new features
  661. * Qt4 version of wpa_gui (wpa_gui-qt4 subdirectory) is now native Qt4
  662. application, i.e., it does not require Qt3Support anymore; Windows
  663. binary of wpa_gui.exe is now from this directory and only requires
  664. QtCore4.dll and QtGui4.dll libraries
  665. * updated Windows binary build to use Qt 4.3.3 and made Qt DLLs
  666. available as a separate package to make wpa_gui installation easier:
  667. http://w1.fi/wpa_supplicant/qt4/wpa_gui-qt433-windows-dll.zip
  668. * added support for EAP-IKEv2 (draft-tschofenig-eap-ikev2-15.txt);
  669. only shared key/password authentication is supported in this version
  670. 2007-11-24 - v0.6.1
  671. * added support for configuring password as NtPasswordHash
  672. (16-byte MD4 hash of password) in hash:<32 hex digits> format
  673. * added support for fallback from abbreviated TLS handshake to
  674. full handshake when using EAP-FAST (e.g., due to an expired
  675. PAC-Opaque)
  676. * updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
  677. draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-07.txt)
  678. * added support for drivers that take care of RSN 4-way handshake
  679. internally (WPA_DRIVER_FLAGS_4WAY_HANDSHAKE in get_capa flags and
  680. WPA_ALG_PMK in set_key)
  681. * added an experimental port for Mac OS X (CONFIG_DRIVER_OSX=y in
  682. .config); this version supports only ap_scan=2 mode and allow the
  683. driver to take care of the 4-way handshake
  684. * fixed a buffer overflow in parsing TSF from scan results when using
  685. driver_wext.c with a driver that includes the TSF (e.g., iwl4965)
  686. [Bug 232]
  687. * updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D8.0
  688. * fixed an integer overflow issue in the ASN.1 parser used by the
  689. (experimental) internal TLS implementation to avoid a potential
  690. buffer read overflow
  691. * fixed a race condition with -W option (wait for a control interface
  692. monitor before starting) that could have caused the first messages to
  693. be lost
  694. * added support for processing TNCC-TNCS-Messages to report
  695. recommendation (allow/none/isolate) when using TNC [Bug 243]
  696. 2007-05-28 - v0.6.0
  697. * added network configuration parameter 'frequency' for setting
  698. initial channel for IBSS (adhoc) networks
  699. * added experimental IEEE 802.11r/D6.0 support
  700. * updated EAP-SAKE to RFC 4763 and the IANA-allocated EAP type 48
  701. * updated EAP-PSK to use the IANA-allocated EAP type 47
  702. * fixed EAP-PAX key derivation
  703. * fixed EAP-PSK bit ordering of the Flags field
  704. * fixed EAP-PEAP/TTLS/FAST to use the correct EAP identifier in
  705. tunnelled identity request (previously, the identifier from the outer
  706. method was used, not the tunnelled identifier which could be
  707. different)
  708. * added support for fragmentation of outer TLS packets during Phase 2
  709. of EAP-PEAP/TTLS/FAST
  710. * fixed EAP-TTLS AVP parser processing for too short AVP lengths
  711. * added support for EAP-FAST authentication with inner methods that
  712. generate MSK (e.g., EAP-MSCHAPv2 that was previously only supported
  713. for PAC provisioning)
  714. * added support for authenticated EAP-FAST provisioning
  715. * added support for configuring maximum number of EAP-FAST PACs to
  716. store in a PAC list (fast_max_pac_list_len=<max> in phase1 string)
  717. * added support for storing EAP-FAST PACs in binary format
  718. (fast_pac_format=binary in phase1 string)
  719. * fixed dbus ctrl_iface to validate message interface before
  720. dispatching to avoid a possible segfault [Bug 190]
  721. * fixed PeerKey key derivation to use the correct PRF label
  722. * updated Windows binary build to link against OpenSSL 0.9.8d and
  723. added support for EAP-FAST
  724. * updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
  725. draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-04.txt)
  726. * fixed EAP-AKA Notification processing to allow Notification to be
  727. processed after AKA Challenge response has been sent
  728. * updated to use IEEE 802.11w/D2.0 for management frame protection
  729. (still experimental)
  730. * fixed EAP-TTLS implementation not to crash on use of freed memory
  731. if TLS library initialization fails
  732. * added support for EAP-TNC (Trusted Network Connect)
  733. (this version implements the EAP-TNC method and EAP-TTLS changes
  734. needed to run two methods in sequence (IF-T) and the IF-IMC and
  735. IF-TNCCS interfaces from TNCC)
  736. 2006-11-24 - v0.5.6
  737. * added experimental, integrated TLSv1 client implementation with the
  738. needed X.509/ASN.1/RSA/bignum processing (this can be enabled by
  739. setting CONFIG_TLS=internal and CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH=y in
  740. .config); this can be useful, e.g., if the target system does not
  741. have a suitable TLS library and a minimal code size is required
  742. (total size of this internal TLS/crypto code is bit under 50 kB on
  743. x86 and the crypto code is shared by rest of the supplicant so some
  744. of it was already required; TLSv1/X.509/ASN.1/RSA added about 25 kB)
  745. * removed STAKey handshake since PeerKey handshake has replaced it in
  746. IEEE 802.11ma and there are no known deployments of STAKey
  747. * updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
  748. draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-01.txt)
  749. * added preliminary implementation of IEEE 802.11w/D1.0 (management
  750. frame protection)
  751. (Note: this requires driver support to work properly.)
  752. (Note2: IEEE 802.11w is an unapproved draft and subject to change.)
  753. * fixed Windows named pipes ctrl_iface to not stop listening for
  754. commands if client program opens a named pipe and closes it
  755. immediately without sending a command
  756. * fixed USIM PIN status determination for the case that PIN is not
  757. needed (this allows EAP-AKA to be used with USIM cards that do not
  758. use PIN)
  759. * added support for reading 3G USIM AID from EF_DIR to allow EAP-AKA to
  760. be used with cards that do not support file selection based on
  761. partial AID
  762. * added support for matching the subjectAltName of the authentication
  763. server certificate against multiple name components (e.g.,
  764. altsubject_match="DNS:server.example.com;DNS:server2.example.com")
  765. * fixed EAP-SIM/AKA key derivation for re-authentication case (only
  766. affects IEEE 802.1X with dynamic WEP keys)
  767. * changed ctrl_iface network configuration 'get' operations to not
  768. return password/key material; if these fields are requested, "*"
  769. will be returned if the password/key is set, but the value of the
  770. parameter is not exposed
  771. 2006-08-27 - v0.5.5
  772. * added support for building Windows version with UNICODE defined
  773. (wide-char functions)
  774. * driver_ndis: fixed static WEP configuration to avoid race condition
  775. issues with some NDIS drivers between association and setting WEP
  776. keys
  777. * driver_ndis: added validation for IELength value in scan results to
  778. avoid crashes when using buggy NDIS drivers [Bug 165]
  779. * fixed Release|Win32 target in the Visual Studio project files
  780. (previously, only Debug|Win32 target was set properly)
  781. * changed control interface API call wpa_ctrl_pending() to allow it to
  782. return -1 on error (e.g., connection lost); control interface clients
  783. will need to make sure that they verify that the value is indeed >0
  784. when determining whether there are pending messages
  785. * added an alternative control interface backend for Windows targets:
  786. Named Pipe (CONFIG_CTRL_IFACE=named_pipe); this is now the default
  787. control interface mechanism for Windows builds (previously, UDP to
  788. localhost was used)
  789. * changed ctrl_interface configuration for UNIX domain sockets:
  790. - deprecated ctrl_interface_group variable (it may be removed in
  791. future versions)
  792. - allow both directory and group be configured with ctrl_interface
  793. in following format: DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=wheel
  794. - ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant is still supported for the
  795. case when group is not changed
  796. * added support for controlling more than one interface per process in
  797. Windows version
  798. * added a workaround for a case where the AP is using unknown address
  799. (e.g., MAC address of the wired interface) as the source address for
  800. EAPOL-Key frames; previously, that source address was used as the
  801. destination for EAPOL-Key frames and in key derivation; now, BSSID is
  802. used even if the source address does not match with it
  803. (this resolves an interoperability issue with Thomson SpeedTouch 580)
  804. * added a workaround for UDP-based control interface (which was used in
  805. Windows builds before this release) to prevent packets with forged
  806. addresses from being accepted as local control requests
  807. * removed ndis_events.cpp and possibility of using external
  808. ndis_events.exe; C version (ndis_events.c) is fully functional and
  809. there is no desire to maintain two separate versions of this
  810. implementation
  811. * ndis_events: Changed NDIS event notification design to use WMI to
  812. learn the adapter description through Win32_PnPEntity class; this
  813. should fix some cases where the adapter name was not recognized
  814. correctly (e.g., with some USB WLAN adapters, e.g., Ralink RT2500
  815. USB) [Bug 113]
  816. * fixed selection of the first network in ap_scan=2 mode; previously,
  817. wpa_supplicant could get stuck in SCANNING state when only the first
  818. network for enabled (e.g., after 'wpa_cli select_network 0')
  819. * winsvc: added support for configuring ctrl_interface parameters in
  820. registry (ctrl_interface string value in
  821. HKLM\SOFTWARE\wpa_supplicant\interfaces\0000 key); this new value is
  822. required to enable control interface (previously, this was hardcoded
  823. to be enabled)
  824. * allow wpa_gui subdirectory to be built with both Qt3 and Qt4
  825. * converted wpa_gui-qt4 subdirectory to use Qt4 specific project format
  826. 2006-06-20 - v0.5.4
  827. * fixed build with CONFIG_STAKEY=y [Bug 143]
  828. * added support for doing MLME (IEEE 802.11 management frame
  829. processing) in wpa_supplicant when using Devicescape IEEE 802.11
  830. stack (wireless-dev.git tree)
  831. * added a new network block configuration option, fragment_size, to
  832. configure the maximum EAP fragment size
  833. * driver_ndis: Disable WZC automatically for the selected interface to
  834. avoid conflicts with two programs trying to control the radio; WZC
  835. will be re-enabled (if it was enabled originally) when wpa_supplicant
  836. is terminated
  837. * added an experimental TLSv1 client implementation
  838. (CONFIG_TLS=internal) that can be used instead of an external TLS
  839. library, e.g., to reduce total size requirement on systems that do
  840. not include any TLS library by default (this is not yet complete;
  841. basic functionality is there, but certificate validation is not yet
  842. included)
  843. * added PeerKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e
  844. direct link setup (DLS) to replace STAKey handshake
  845. * fixed WPA PSK update through ctrl_iface for the case where the old
  846. PSK was derived from an ASCII passphrase and the new PSK is set as
  847. a raw PSK (hex string)
  848. * added new configuration option for identifying which network block
  849. was used (id_str in wpa_supplicant.conf; included on
  850. WPA_EVENT_CONNECT monitor event and as WPA_ID_STR environmental
  851. variable in wpa_cli action scripts; in addition WPA_ID variable is
  852. set to the current unique identifier that wpa_supplicant assigned
  853. automatically for the network and that can be used with
  854. GET_NETWORK/SET_NETWORK ctrl_iface commands)
  855. * wpa_cli action script is now called only when the connect/disconnect
  856. status changes or when associating with a different network
  857. * fixed configuration parser not to remove CCMP from group cipher list
  858. if WPA-None (adhoc) is used (pairwise=NONE in that case)
  859. * fixed integrated NDIS events processing not to hang the process due
  860. to a missed change in eloop_win.c API in v0.5.3 [Bug 155]
  861. * added support for EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK,
  862. draft-clancy-emu-eap-shared-secret-00.txt)
  863. * added Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 solution and project files for
  864. build wpa_supplicant for Windows (see vs2005 subdirectory)
  865. * eloop_win: fixed unregistration of Windows events
  866. * l2_packet_winpcap: fixed a deadlock in deinitializing l2_packet
  867. at the end of RSN pre-authentication and added unregistration of
  868. a Windows event to avoid getting eloop_win stuck with an invalid
  869. handle
  870. * driver_ndis: added support for selecting AP based on BSSID
  871. * added new environmental variable for wpa_cli action scripts:
  872. WPA_CTRL_DIR is the current control interface directory
  873. * driver_ndis: added support for using NDISUIO instead of WinPcap for
  874. OID set/query operations (CONFIG_USE_NDISUIO=y in .config); with new
  875. l2_packet_ndis (CONFIG_L2_PACKET=ndis), this can be used to build
  876. wpa_supplicant without requiring WinPcap; note that using NDISUIO
  877. requires that WZC is disabled (net stop wzcsvc) since NDISUIO allows
  878. only one application to open the device
  879. * changed NDIS driver naming to only include device GUID, e.g.,
  880. {7EE3EFE5-C165-472F-986D-F6FBEDFE8C8D}, instead of including WinPcap
  881. specific \Device\NPF_ prefix before the GUID; the prefix is still
  882. allowed for backwards compatibility, but it is not required anymore
  883. when specifying the interface
  884. * driver_ndis: re-initialize driver interface is the adapter is removed
  885. and re-inserted [Bug 159]
  886. * driver_madwifi: fixed TKIP and CCMP sequence number configuration on
  887. big endian hosts [Bug 146]
  888. 2006-04-27 - v0.5.3
  889. * fixed EAP-GTC response to include correct user identity when run as
  890. phase 2 method of EAP-FAST (i.e., EAP-FAST did not work in v0.5.2)
  891. * driver_ndis: Fixed encryption mode configuration for unencrypted
  892. networks (some NDIS drivers ignored this, but others, e.g., Broadcom,
  893. refused to associate with open networks) [Bug 106]
  894. * driver_ndis: use BSSID OID polling to detect when IBSS network is
  895. formed even when ndis_events code is included since some NDIS drivers
  896. do not generate media connect events in IBSS mode
  897. * config_winreg: allow global ctrl_interface parameter to be configured
  898. in Windows registry
  899. * config_winreg: added support for saving configuration data into
  900. Windows registry
  901. * added support for controlling network device operational state
  902. (dormant/up) for Linux 2.6.17 to improve DHCP processing (see
  903. http://www.flamewarmaster.de/software/dhcpclient/ for a DHCP client
  904. that can use this information)
  905. * driver_wext: added support for WE-21 change to SSID configuration
  906. * driver_wext: fixed privacy configuration for static WEP keys mode
  907. [Bug 140]
  908. * added an optional driver_ops callback for MLME-SETPROTECTION.request
  909. primitive
  910. * added support for EAP-SAKE (no EAP method number allocated yet, so
  911. this is using the same experimental type 255 as EAP-PSK)
  912. * added support for dynamically loading EAP methods (.so files) instead
  913. of requiring them to be statically linked in; this is disabled by
  914. default (see CONFIG_DYNAMIC_EAP_METHODS in defconfig for information
  915. on how to use this)
  916. 2006-03-19 - v0.5.2
  917. * do not try to use USIM APDUs when initializing PC/SC for SIM card
  918. access for a network that has not enabled EAP-AKA
  919. * fixed EAP phase 2 Nak for EAP-{PEAP,TTLS,FAST} (this was broken in
  920. v0.5.1 due to the new support for expanded EAP types)
  921. * added support for generating EAP Expanded Nak
  922. * try to fetch scan results once before requesting new scan when
  923. starting up in ap_scan=1 mode (this can speed up initial association
  924. a lot with, e.g., madwifi-ng driver)
  925. * added support for receiving EAPOL frames from a Linux bridge
  926. interface (-bbr0 on command line)
  927. * fixed EAPOL re-authentication for sessions that used PMKSA caching
  928. * changed EAP method registration to use a dynamic list of methods
  929. instead of a static list generated at build time
  930. * fixed PMKSA cache deinitialization not to use freed memory when
  931. removing PMKSA entries
  932. * fixed a memory leak in EAP-TTLS re-authentication
  933. * reject WPA/WPA2 message 3/4 if it does not include any valid
  934. WPA/RSN IE
  935. * driver_wext: added fallback to use SIOCSIWENCODE for setting auth_alg
  936. if the driver does not support SIOCSIWAUTH
  937. 2006-01-29 - v0.5.1
  938. * driver_test: added better support for multiple APs and STAs by using
  939. a directory with sockets that include MAC address for each device in
  940. the name (driver_param=test_dir=/tmp/test)
  941. * added support for EAP expanded type (vendor specific EAP methods)
  942. * added AP_SCAN command into ctrl_iface so that ap_scan configuration
  943. option can be changed if needed
  944. * wpa_cli/wpa_gui: skip non-socket files in control directory when
  945. using UNIX domain sockets; this avoids selecting an incorrect
  946. interface (e.g., a PID file could be in this directory, even though
  947. use of this directory for something else than socket files is not
  948. recommended)
  949. * fixed TLS library deinitialization after RSN pre-authentication not
  950. to disable TLS library for normal authentication
  951. * driver_wext: Remove null-termination from SSID length if the driver
  952. used it; some Linux drivers do this and they were causing problems in
  953. wpa_supplicant not finding matching configuration block. This change
  954. would break a case where the SSID actually ends in '\0', but that is
  955. not likely to happen in real use.
  956. * fixed PMKSA cache processing not to trigger deauthentication if the
  957. current PMKSA cache entry is replaced with a valid new entry
  958. * fixed PC/SC initialization for ap_scan != 1 modes (this fixes
  959. EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA with real SIM/USIM card when using ap_scan=0 or
  960. ap_scan=2)
  961. 2005-12-18 - v0.5.0 (beginning of 0.5.x development releases)
  962. * added experimental STAKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e
  963. direct link setup (DLS); note: this is disabled by default in both
  964. build and runtime configuration (can be enabled with CONFIG_STAKEY=y
  965. and stakey=1)
  966. * fixed EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA pseudonym and fast re-authentication to
  967. decrypt AT_ENCR_DATA attributes correctly
  968. * fixed EAP-AKA to allow resynchronization within the same session
  969. * made code closer to ANSI C89 standard to make it easier to port to
  970. other C libraries and compilers
  971. * started moving operating system or C library specific functions into
  972. wrapper functions defined in os.h and implemented in os_*.c to make
  973. code more portable
  974. * wpa_supplicant can now be built with Microsoft Visual C++
  975. (e.g., with the freely available Toolkit 2003 version or Visual
  976. C++ 2005 Express Edition and Platform SDK); see nmake.mak for an
  977. example makefile for nmake
  978. * added support for using Windows registry for command line parameters
  979. (CONFIG_MAIN=main_winsvc) and configuration data
  980. (CONFIG_BACKEND=winreg); see win_example.reg for an example registry
  981. contents; this version can be run both as a Windows service and as a
  982. normal application; 'wpasvc.exe app' to start as applicant,
  983. 'wpasvc.exe reg <full path to wpasvc.exe>' to register a service,
  984. 'net start wpasvc' to start the service, 'wpasvc.exe unreg' to
  985. unregister a service
  986. * made it possible to link ndis_events.exe functionality into
  987. wpa_supplicant.exe by defining CONFIG_NDIS_EVENTS_INTEGRATED
  988. * added better support for multiple control interface backends
  989. (CONFIG_CTRL_IFACE option); currently, 'unix' and 'udp' are supported
  990. * fixed PC/SC code to use correct length for GSM AUTH command buffer
  991. and to not use pioRecvPci with SCardTransmit() calls; these were not
  992. causing visible problems with pcsc-lite, but Windows Winscard.dll
  993. refused the previously used parameters; this fixes EAP-SIM and
  994. EAP-AKA authentication using SIM/USIM card under Windows
  995. * added new event loop implementation for Windows using
  996. WaitForMultipleObject() instead of select() in order to allow waiting
  997. for non-socket objects; this can be selected with
  998. CONFIG_ELOOP=eloop_win in .config
  999. * added support for selecting l2_packet implementation in .config
  1000. (CONFIG_L2_PACKET; following options are available now: linux, pcap,
  1001. winpcap, freebsd, none)
  1002. * added new l2_packet implementation for WinPcap
  1003. (CONFIG_L2_PACKET=winpcap) that uses a separate receive thread to
  1004. reduce latency in EAPOL receive processing from about 100 ms to about
  1005. 3 ms
  1006. * added support for EAP-FAST key derivation using other ciphers than
  1007. RC4-128-SHA for authentication and AES128-SHA for provisioning
  1008. * added support for configuring CA certificate as DER file and as a
  1009. configuration blob
  1010. * fixed private key configuration as configuration blob and added
  1011. support for using PKCS#12 as a blob
  1012. * tls_gnutls: added support for using PKCS#12 files; added support for
  1013. session resumption
  1014. * added support for loading trusted CA certificates from Windows
  1015. certificate store: ca_cert="cert_store://<name>", where <name> is
  1016. likely CA (Intermediate CA certificates) or ROOT (root certificates)
  1017. * added C version of ndis_events.cpp and made it possible to build this
  1018. with MinGW so that CONFIG_NDIS_EVENTS_INTEGRATED can be used more
  1019. easily on cross-compilation builds
  1020. * added wpasvc.exe into Windows binary release; this is an alternative
  1021. version of wpa_supplicant.exe with configuration backend using
  1022. Windows registry and with the entry point designed to run as a
  1023. Windows service
  1024. * integrated ndis_events.exe functionality into wpa_supplicant.exe and
  1025. wpasvc.exe and removed this additional tool from the Windows binary
  1026. release since it is not needed anymore
  1027. * load winscard.dll functions dynamically when building with MinGW
  1028. since MinGW does not yet include winscard library
  1029. 2005-11-20 - v0.4.7 (beginning of 0.4.x stable releases)
  1030. * l2_packet_pcap: fixed wired IEEE 802.1X authentication with libpcap
  1031. and WinPcap to receive frames sent to PAE group address
  1032. * disable EAP state machine when IEEE 802.1X authentication is not used
  1033. in order to get rid of bogus "EAP failed" messages
  1034. * fixed OpenSSL error reporting to go through all pending errors to
  1035. avoid confusing reports of old errors being reported at later point
  1036. during handshake
  1037. * fixed configuration file updating to not write empty variables
  1038. (e.g., proto or key_mgmt) that the file parser would not accept
  1039. * fixed ADD_NETWORK ctrl_iface command to use the same default values
  1040. for variables as empty network definitions read from config file
  1041. would get
  1042. * fixed EAP state machine to not discard EAP-Failure messages in many
  1043. cases (e.g., during TLS handshake)
  1044. * fixed a infinite loop in private key reading if the configured file
  1045. cannot be parsed successfully
  1046. * driver_madwifi: added support for madwifi-ng
  1047. * wpa_gui: do not display password/PSK field contents
  1048. * wpa_gui: added CA certificate configuration
  1049. * driver_ndis: fixed scan request in ap_scan=2 mode not to change SSID
  1050. * driver_ndis: include Beacon IEs in AssocInfo in order to notice if
  1051. the new AP is using different WPA/RSN IE
  1052. * use longer timeout for IEEE 802.11 association to avoid problems with
  1053. drivers that may take more than five second to associate
  1054. 2005-10-27 - v0.4.6
  1055. * allow fallback to WPA, if mixed WPA+WPA2 networks have mismatch in
  1056. RSN IE, but WPA IE would match with wpa_supplicant configuration
  1057. * added support for named configuration blobs in order to avoid having
  1058. to use file system for external files (e.g., certificates);
  1059. variables can be set to "blob://<blob name>" instead of file path to
  1060. use a named blob; supported fields: pac_file, client_cert,
  1061. private_key
  1062. * fixed RSN pre-authentication (it was broken in the clean up of WPA
  1063. state machine interface in v0.4.5)
  1064. * driver_madwifi: set IEEE80211_KEY_GROUP flag for group keys to make
  1065. sure the driver configures broadcast decryption correctly
  1066. * added ca_path (and ca_path2) configuration variables that can be used
  1067. to configure OpenSSL CA path, e.g., /etc/ssl/certs, for using the
  1068. system-wide trusted CA list
  1069. * added support for starting wpa_supplicant without a configuration
  1070. file (-C argument must be used to set ctrl_interface parameter for
  1071. this case; in addition, -p argument can be used to provide
  1072. driver_param; these new arguments can also be used with a
  1073. configuration to override the values from the configuration)
  1074. * added global control interface that can be optionally used for adding
  1075. and removing network interfaces dynamically (-g command line argument
  1076. for both wpa_supplicant and wpa_cli) without having to restart
  1077. wpa_supplicant process
  1078. * wpa_gui:
  1079. - try to save configuration whenever something is modified
  1080. - added WEP key configuration
  1081. - added possibility to edit the current network configuration
  1082. * driver_ndis: fixed driver polling not to increase frequency on each
  1083. received EAPOL frame due to incorrectly cancelled timeout
  1084. * added simple configuration file examples (in examples subdirectory)
  1085. * fixed driver_wext.c to filter wireless events based on ifindex to
  1086. avoid interfaces receiving events from other interfaces
  1087. * delay sending initial EAPOL-Start couple of seconds to speed up
  1088. authentication for the most common case of Authenticator starting
  1089. EAP authentication immediately after association
  1090. 2005-09-25 - v0.4.5
  1091. * added a workaround for clearing keys with ndiswrapper to allow
  1092. roaming from WPA enabled AP to plaintext one
  1093. * added docbook documentation (doc/docbook) that can be used to
  1094. generate, e.g., man pages
  1095. * l2_packet_linux: use socket type SOCK_DGRAM instead of SOCK_RAW for
  1096. PF_PACKET in order to prepare for network devices that do not use
  1097. Ethernet headers (e.g., network stack with native IEEE 802.11 frames)
  1098. * use receipt of EAPOL-Key frame as a lower layer success indication
  1099. for EAP state machine to allow recovery from dropped EAP-Success
  1100. frame
  1101. * cleaned up internal EAPOL frame processing by not including link
  1102. layer (Ethernet) header during WPA and EAPOL/EAP processing; this
  1103. header is added only when transmitted the frame; this makes it easier
  1104. to use wpa_supplicant on link layers that use different header than
  1105. Ethernet
  1106. * updated EAP-PSK to use draft 9 by default since this can now be
  1107. tested with hostapd; removed support for draft 3, including
  1108. server_nai configuration option from network blocks
  1109. * driver_wired: add PAE address to the multicast address list in order
  1110. to be able to receive EAPOL frames with drivers that do not include
  1111. these multicast addresses by default
  1112. * driver_wext: add support for WE-19
  1113. * added support for multiple configuration backends (CONFIG_BACKEND
  1114. option); currently, only 'file' is supported (i.e., the format used
  1115. in wpa_supplicant.conf)
  1116. * added support for updating configuration ('wpa_cli save_config');
  1117. this is disabled by default and can be enabled with global
  1118. update_config=1 variable in wpa_supplicant.conf; this allows wpa_cli
  1119. and wpa_gui to store the configuration changes in a permanent store
  1120. * added GET_NETWORK ctrl_iface command
  1121. (e.g., 'wpa_cli get_network 0 ssid')
  1122. 2005-08-21 - v0.4.4
  1123. * replaced OpenSSL patch for EAP-FAST support
  1124. (openssl-tls-extensions.patch) with a more generic and correct
  1125. patch (the new patch is not compatible with the previous one, so the
  1126. OpenSSL library will need to be patched with the new patch in order
  1127. to be able to build wpa_supplicant with EAP-FAST support)
  1128. * added support for using Windows certificate store (through CryptoAPI)
  1129. for client certificate and private key operations (EAP-TLS)
  1130. (see wpa_supplicant.conf for more information on how to configure
  1131. this with private_key)
  1132. * ported wpa_gui to Windows
  1133. * added Qt4 version of wpa_gui (wpa_gui-qt4 directory); this can be
  1134. built with the open source version of the Qt4 for Windows
  1135. * allow non-WPA modes (e.g., IEEE 802.1X with dynamic WEP) to be used
  1136. with drivers that do not support WPA
  1137. * ndis_events: fixed Windows 2000 support
  1138. * added support for enabling/disabling networks from the list of all
  1139. configured networks ('wpa_cli enable_network <network id>' and
  1140. 'wpa_cli disable_network <network id>')
  1141. * added support for adding and removing network from the current
  1142. configuration ('wpa_cli add_network' and 'wpa_cli remove_network
  1143. <network id>'); added networks are disabled by default and they can
  1144. be enabled with enable_network command once the configuration is done
  1145. for the new network; note: configuration file is not yet updated, so
  1146. these new networks are lost when wpa_supplicant is restarted
  1147. * added support for setting network configuration parameters through
  1148. the control interface, for example:
  1149. wpa_cli set_network 0 ssid "\"my network\""
  1150. * fixed parsing of strings that include both " and # within double
  1151. quoted area (e.g., "start"#end")
  1152. * added EAP workaround for PEAP session resumption: allow outer,
  1153. i.e., not tunneled, EAP-Success to terminate session since; this can
  1154. be disabled with eap_workaround=0
  1155. (this was allowed for PEAPv1 before, but now it is also allowed for
  1156. PEAPv0 since at least one RADIUS authentication server seems to be
  1157. doing this for PEAPv0, too)
  1158. * wpa_gui: added preliminary support for adding new networks to the
  1159. wpa_supplicant configuration (double click on the scan results to
  1160. open network configuration)
  1161. 2005-06-26 - v0.4.3
  1162. * removed interface for external EAPOL/EAP supplicant (e.g.,
  1163. Xsupplicant), (CONFIG_XSUPPLICANT_IFACE) since it is not required
  1164. anymore and is unlikely to be used by anyone
  1165. * driver_ndis: fixed WinPcap 3.0 support
  1166. * fixed build with CONFIG_DNET_PCAP=y on Linux
  1167. * l2_packet: moved different implementations into separate files
  1168. (l2_packet_*.c)
  1169. 2005-06-12 - v0.4.2
  1170. * driver_ipw: updated driver structures to match with ipw2200-1.0.4
  1171. (note: ipw2100-1.1.0 is likely to require an update to work with
  1172. this)
  1173. * added support for using ap_scan=2 mode with multiple network blocks;
  1174. wpa_supplicant will go through the networks one by one until the
  1175. driver reports a successful association; this uses the same order for
  1176. networks as scan_ssid=1 scans, i.e., the priority field is ignored
  1177. and the network block order in the file is used instead
  1178. * fixed a potential issue in RSN pre-authentication ending up using
  1179. freed memory if pre-authentication times out
  1180. * added support for matching alternative subject name extensions of the
  1181. authentication server certificate; new configuration variables
  1182. altsubject_match and altsubject_match2
  1183. * driver_ndis: added support for IEEE 802.1X authentication with wired
  1184. NDIS drivers
  1185. * added support for querying private key password (EAP-TLS) through the
  1186. control interface (wpa_cli/wpa_gui) if one is not included in the
  1187. configuration file
  1188. * driver_broadcom: fixed couple of memory leaks in scan result
  1189. processing
  1190. * EAP-PAX is now registered as EAP type 46
  1191. * fixed EAP-PAX MAC calculation
  1192. * fixed EAP-PAX CK and ICK key derivation
  1193. * added support for using password with EAP-PAX (as an alternative to
  1194. entering key with eappsk); SHA-1 hash of the password will be used as
  1195. the key in this case
  1196. * added support for arbitrary driver interface parameters through the
  1197. configuration file with a new driver_param field; this adds a new
  1198. driver_ops function set_param()
  1199. * added possibility to override l2_packet module with driver interface
  1200. API (new send_eapol handler); this can be used to implement driver
  1201. specific TX/RX functions for EAPOL frames
  1202. * fixed ctrl_interface_group processing for the case where gid is
  1203. entered as a number, not group name
  1204. * driver_test: added support for testing hostapd with wpa_supplicant
  1205. by using test driver interface without any kernel drivers or network
  1206. cards
  1207. 2005-05-22 - v0.4.1
  1208. * driver_madwifi: fixed WPA/WPA2 mode configuration to allow EAPOL
  1209. packets to be encrypted; this was apparently broken by the changed
  1210. ioctl order in v0.4.0
  1211. * driver_madwifi: added preliminary support for compiling against 'BSD'
  1212. branch of madwifi CVS tree
  1213. * added support for EAP-MSCHAPv2 password retries within the same EAP
  1214. authentication session
  1215. * added support for password changes with EAP-MSCHAPv2 (used when the
  1216. password has expired)
  1217. * added support for reading additional certificates from PKCS#12 files
  1218. and adding them to the certificate chain
  1219. * fixed association with IEEE 802.1X (no WPA) when dynamic WEP keys
  1220. were used
  1221. * fixed a possible double free in EAP-TTLS fast-reauthentication when
  1222. identity or password is entered through control interface
  1223. * display EAP Notification messages to user through control interface
  1224. with "CTRL-EVENT-EAP-NOTIFICATION" prefix
  1225. * added GUI version of wpa_cli, wpa_gui; this is not build
  1226. automatically with 'make'; use 'make wpa_gui' to build (this requires
  1227. Qt development tools)
  1228. * added 'disconnect' command to control interface for setting
  1229. wpa_supplicant in state where it will not associate before
  1230. 'reassociate' command has been used
  1231. * added support for selecting a network from the list of all configured
  1232. networks ('wpa_cli select_network <network id>'; this disabled all
  1233. other networks; to re-enable, 'wpa_cli select_network any')
  1234. * added support for getting scan results through control interface
  1235. * added EAP workaround for PEAPv1 session resumption: allow outer,
  1236. i.e., not tunneled, EAP-Success to terminate session since; this can
  1237. be disabled with eap_workaround=0
  1238. 2005-04-25 - v0.4.0 (beginning of 0.4.x development releases)
  1239. * added a new build time option, CONFIG_NO_STDOUT_DEBUG, that can be
  1240. used to reduce the size of the wpa_supplicant considerably if
  1241. debugging code is not needed
  1242. * fixed EAPOL-Key validation to drop packets with invalid Key Data
  1243. Length; such frames could have crashed wpa_supplicant due to buffer
  1244. overflow
  1245. * added support for wired authentication (IEEE 802.1X on wired
  1246. Ethernet); driver interface 'wired'
  1247. * obsoleted set_wpa() handler in the driver interface API (it can be
  1248. replaced by moving enable/disable functionality into init()/deinit())
  1249. (calls to set_wpa() are still present for backwards compatibility,
  1250. but they may be removed in the future)
  1251. * driver_madwifi: fixed association in plaintext mode
  1252. * modified the EAP workaround that accepts EAP-Success with incorrect
  1253. Identifier to be even less strict about verification in order to
  1254. interoperate with some authentication servers
  1255. * added support for sending TLS alerts
  1256. * added support for 'any' SSID wildcard; if ssid is not configured or
  1257. is set to an empty string, any SSID will be accepted for non-WPA AP
  1258. * added support for asking PIN (for SIM) from frontends (e.g.,
  1259. wpa_cli); if a PIN is needed, but not included in the configuration
  1260. file, a control interface request is sent and EAP processing is
  1261. delayed until the PIN is available
  1262. * added support for using external devices (e.g., a smartcard) for
  1263. private key operations in EAP-TLS (CONFIG_SMARTCARD=y in .config);
  1264. new wpa_supplicant.conf variables:
  1265. - global: opensc_engine_path, pkcs11_engine_path, pkcs11_module_path
  1266. - network: engine, engine_id, key_id
  1267. * added experimental support for EAP-PAX
  1268. * added monitor mode for wpa_cli (-a<path to a program to run>) that
  1269. allows external commands (e.g., shell scripts) to be run based on
  1270. wpa_supplicant events, e.g., when authentication has been completed
  1271. and data connection is ready; other related wpa_cli arguments:
  1272. -B (run in background), -P (write PID file); wpa_supplicant has a new
  1273. command line argument (-W) that can be used to make it wait until a
  1274. control interface command is received in order to avoid missing
  1275. events
  1276. * added support for opportunistic WPA2 PMKSA key caching (disabled by
  1277. default, can be enabled with proactive_key_caching=1)
  1278. * fixed RSN IE in 4-Way Handshake message 2/4 for the case where
  1279. Authenticator rejects PMKSA caching attempt and the driver is not
  1280. using assoc_info events
  1281. * added -P<pid file> argument for wpa_supplicant to write the current
  1282. process id into a file
  1283. 2005-02-12 - v0.3.7 (beginning of 0.3.x stable releases)
  1284. * added new phase1 option parameter, include_tls_length=1, to force
  1285. wpa_supplicant to add TLS Message Length field to all TLS messages
  1286. even if the packet is not fragmented; this may be needed with some
  1287. authentication servers
  1288. * fixed WPA/RSN IE verification in message 3 of 4-Way Handshake when
  1289. using drivers that take care of AP selection (e.g., when using
  1290. ap_scan=2)
  1291. * fixed reprocessing of pending request after ctrl_iface requests for
  1292. identity/password/otp
  1293. * fixed ctrl_iface requests for identity/password/otp in Phase 2 of
  1294. EAP-PEAP and EAP-TTLS
  1295. * all drivers using driver_wext: set interface up and select Managed
  1296. mode when starting wpa_supplicant; set interface down when exiting
  1297. * renamed driver_ipw2100.c to driver_ipw.c since it now supports both
  1298. ipw2100 and ipw2200; please note that this also changed the
  1299. configuration variable in .config to CONFIG_DRIVER_IPW
  1300. 2005-01-24 - v0.3.6
  1301. * fixed a busy loop introduced in v0.3.5 for scan result processing
  1302. when no matching AP is found
  1303. 2005-01-23 - v0.3.5
  1304. * added a workaround for an interoperability issue with a Cisco AP
  1305. when using WPA2-PSK
  1306. * fixed non-WPA IEEE 802.1X to use the same authentication timeout as
  1307. WPA with IEEE 802.1X (i.e., timeout 10 -> 70 sec to allow
  1308. retransmission of dropped frames)
  1309. * fixed issues with 64-bit CPUs and SHA1 cleanup in previous version
  1310. (e.g., segfault when processing EAPOL-Key frames)
  1311. * fixed EAP workaround and fast reauthentication configuration for
  1312. RSN pre-authentication; previously these were disabled and
  1313. pre-authentication would fail if the used authentication server
  1314. requires EAP workarounds
  1315. * added support for blacklisting APs that fail or timeout
  1316. authentication in ap_scan=1 mode so that all APs are tried in cases
  1317. where the ones with strongest signal level are failing authentication
  1318. * fixed CA certificate loading after a failed EAP-TLS/PEAP/TTLS
  1319. authentication attempt
  1320. * allow EAP-PEAP/TTLS fast reauthentication only if Phase 2 succeeded
  1321. in the previous authentication (previously, only Phase 1 success was
  1322. verified)
  1323. 2005-01-09 - v0.3.4
  1324. * added preliminary support for IBSS (ad-hoc) mode configuration
  1325. (mode=1 in network block); this included a new key_mgmt mode
  1326. WPA-NONE, i.e., TKIP or CCMP with a fixed key (based on psk) and no
  1327. key management; see wpa_supplicant.conf for more details and an
  1328. example on how to configure this (note: this is currently implemented
  1329. only for driver_hostapd.c, but the changes should be trivial to add
  1330. in associate() handler for other drivers, too (assuming the driver
  1331. supports WPA-None)
  1332. * added preliminary port for native Windows (i.e., no cygwin) using
  1333. mingw
  1334. 2005-01-02 - v0.3.3
  1335. * added optional support for GNU Readline and History Libraries for
  1336. wpa_cli (CONFIG_READLINE)
  1337. * cleaned up EAP state machine <-> method interface and number of
  1338. small problems with error case processing not terminating on
  1339. EAP-Failure but waiting for timeout
  1340. * added couple of workarounds for interoperability issues with a
  1341. Cisco AP when using WPA2
  1342. * added support for EAP-FAST (draft-cam-winget-eap-fast-00.txt);
  1343. Note: This requires a patch for openssl to add support for TLS
  1344. extensions and number of workarounds for operations without
  1345. certificates. Proof of concept type of experimental patch is
  1346. included in openssl-tls-extensions.patch.
  1347. 2004-12-19 - v0.3.2
  1348. * fixed private key loading for cases where passphrase is not set
  1349. * fixed Windows/cygwin L2 packet handler freeing; previous version
  1350. could cause a segfault when RSN pre-authentication was completed
  1351. * added support for PMKSA caching with drivers that generate RSN IEs
  1352. (e.g., NDIS); currently, this is only implemented in driver_ndis.c,
  1353. but similar code can be easily added to driver_ndiswrapper.c once
  1354. ndiswrapper gets full support for RSN PMKSA caching
  1355. * improved recovery from PMKID mismatches by requesting full EAP
  1356. authentication in case of failed PMKSA caching attempt
  1357. * driver_ndis: added support for NDIS NdisMIncidateStatus() events
  1358. (this requires that ndis_events is ran while wpa_supplicant is
  1359. running)
  1360. * driver_ndis: use ADD_WEP/REMOVE_WEP when configuring WEP keys
  1361. * added support for driver interfaces to replace the interface name
  1362. based on driver/OS specific mapping, e.g., in case of driver_ndis,
  1363. this allows the beginning of the adapter description to be used as
  1364. the interface name
  1365. * added support for CR+LF (Windows-style) line ends in configuration
  1366. file
  1367. * driver_ndis: enable radio before starting scanning, disable radio
  1368. when exiting
  1369. * modified association event handler to set portEnabled = FALSE before
  1370. clearing port Valid in order to reset EAP state machine and avoid
  1371. problems with new authentication getting ignored because of state
  1372. machines ending up in AUTHENTICATED/SUCCESS state based on old
  1373. information
  1374. * added support for driver events to add PMKID candidates in order to
  1375. allow drivers to give priority to most likely roaming candidates
  1376. * driver_hostap: moved PrivacyInvoked configuration to associate()
  1377. function so that this will not be set for plaintext connections
  1378. * added KEY_MGMT_802_1X_NO_WPA as a new key_mgmt type so that driver
  1379. interface can distinguish plaintext and IEEE 802.1X (no WPA)
  1380. authentication
  1381. * fixed static WEP key configuration to use broadcast/default type for
  1382. all keys (previously, the default TX key was configured as pairwise/
  1383. unicast key)
  1384. * driver_ndis: added legacy WPA capability detection for non-WPA2
  1385. drivers
  1386. * added support for setting static WEP keys for IEEE 802.1X without
  1387. dynamic WEP keying (eapol_flags=0)
  1388. 2004-12-12 - v0.3.1
  1389. * added support for reading PKCS#12 (PFX) files (as a replacement for
  1390. PEM/DER) to get certificate and private key (CONFIG_PKCS12)
  1391. * fixed compilation with CONFIG_PCSC=y
  1392. * added new ap_scan mode, ap_scan=2, for drivers that take care of
  1393. association, but need to be configured with security policy and SSID,
  1394. e.g., ndiswrapper and NDIS driver; this mode should allow such
  1395. drivers to work with hidden SSIDs and optimized roaming; when
  1396. ap_scan=2 is used, only the first network block in the configuration
  1397. file is used and this configuration should have explicit security
  1398. policy (i.e., only one option in the lists) for key_mgmt, pairwise,
  1399. group, proto variables
  1400. * added experimental port of wpa_supplicant for Windows
  1401. - driver_ndis.c driver interface (NDIS OIDs)
  1402. - currently, this requires cygwin and WinPcap
  1403. - small utility, win_if_list, can be used to get interface name
  1404. * control interface can now be removed at build time; add
  1405. CONFIG_CTRL_IFACE=y to .config to maintain old functionality
  1406. * optional Xsupplicant interface can now be removed at build time;
  1407. (CONFIG_XSUPPLICANT_IFACE=y in .config to bring it back)
  1408. * added auth_alg to driver interface associate() parameters to make it
  1409. easier for drivers to configure authentication algorithm as part of
  1410. the association
  1411. 2004-12-05 - v0.3.0 (beginning of 0.3.x development releases)
  1412. * driver_broadcom: added new driver interface for Broadcom wl.o driver
  1413. (a generic driver for Broadcom IEEE 802.11a/g cards)
  1414. * wpa_cli: fixed parsing of -p <path> command line argument
  1415. * PEAPv1: fixed tunneled EAP-Success reply handling to reply with TLS
  1416. ACK, not tunneled EAP-Success (of which only the first byte was
  1417. actually send due to a bug in previous code); this seems to
  1418. interoperate with most RADIUS servers that implements PEAPv1
  1419. * PEAPv1: added support for terminating PEAP authentication on tunneled
  1420. EAP-Success message; this can be configured by adding
  1421. peap_outer_success=0 on phase1 parameters in wpa_supplicant.conf
  1422. (some RADIUS servers require this whereas others require a tunneled
  1423. reply
  1424. * PEAPv1: changed phase1 option peaplabel to use default to 0, i.e., to
  1425. the old label for key derivation; previously, the default was 1,
  1426. but it looks like most existing PEAPv1 implementations use the old
  1427. label which is thus more suitable default option
  1428. * added support for EAP-PSK (draft-bersani-eap-psk-03.txt)
  1429. * fixed parsing of wep_tx_keyidx
  1430. * added support for configuring list of allowed Phase 2 EAP types
  1431. (for both EAP-PEAP and EAP-TTLS) instead of only one type
  1432. * added support for configuring IEEE 802.11 authentication algorithm
  1433. (auth_alg; mainly for using Shared Key authentication with static
  1434. WEP keys)
  1435. * added support for EAP-AKA (with UMTS SIM)
  1436. * fixed couple of errors in PCSC handling that could have caused
  1437. random-looking errors for EAP-SIM
  1438. * added support for EAP-SIM pseudonyms and fast re-authentication
  1439. * added support for EAP-TLS/PEAP/TTLS fast re-authentication (TLS
  1440. session resumption)
  1441. * added support for EAP-SIM with two challanges
  1442. (phase1="sim_min_num_chal=3" can be used to require three challenges)
  1443. * added support for configuring DH/DSA parameters for an ephemeral DH
  1444. key exchange (EAP-TLS/PEAP/TTLS) using new configuration parameters
  1445. dh_file and dh_file2 (phase 2); this adds support for using DSA keys
  1446. and optional DH key exchange to achieve forward secracy with RSA keys
  1447. * added support for matching subject of the authentication server
  1448. certificate with a substring when using EAP-TLS/PEAP/TTLS; new
  1449. configuration variables subject_match and subject_match2
  1450. * changed SSID configuration in driver_wext.c (used by many driver
  1451. interfaces) to use ssid_len+1 as the length for SSID since some Linux
  1452. drivers expect this
  1453. * fixed couple of unaligned reads in scan result parsing to fix WPA
  1454. connection on some platforms (e.g., ARM)
  1455. * added driver interface for Intel ipw2100 driver
  1456. * added support for LEAP with WPA
  1457. * added support for larger scan results report (old limit was 4 kB of
  1458. data, i.e., about 35 or so APs) when using Linux wireless extensions
  1459. v17 or newer
  1460. * fixed a bug in PMKSA cache processing: skip sending of EAPOL-Start
  1461. only if there is a PMKSA cache entry for the current AP
  1462. * fixed error handling for case where reading of scan results fails:
  1463. must schedule a new scan or wpa_supplicant will remain waiting
  1464. forever
  1465. * changed debug output to remove shared password/key material by
  1466. default; all key information can be included with -K command line
  1467. argument to match the previous behavior
  1468. * added support for timestamping debug log messages (disabled by
  1469. default, can be enabled with -t command line argument)
  1470. * set pairwise/group cipher suite for non-WPA IEEE 802.1X to WEP-104
  1471. if keys are not configured to be used; this fixes IEEE 802.1X mode
  1472. with drivers that use this information to configure whether Privacy
  1473. bit can be in Beacon frames (e.g., ndiswrapper)
  1474. * avoid clearing driver keys if no keys have been configured since last
  1475. key clear request; this seems to improve reliability of group key
  1476. handshake for ndiswrapper & NDIS driver which seems to be suffering
  1477. of some kind of timing issue when the keys are cleared again after
  1478. association
  1479. * changed driver interface API:
  1480. - WPA_SUPPLICANT_DRIVER_VERSION define can be used to determine which
  1481. version is being used (now, this is set to 2; previously, it was
  1482. not defined)
  1483. - pass pointer to private data structure to all calls
  1484. - the new API is not backwards compatible; all in-tree driver
  1485. interfaces has been converted to the new API
  1486. * added support for controlling multiple interfaces (radios) per
  1487. wpa_supplicant process; each interface needs to be listed on the
  1488. command line (-c, -i, -D arguments) with -N as a separator
  1489. (-cwpa1.conf -iwlan0 -Dhostap -N -cwpa2.conf -iath0 -Dmadwifi)
  1490. * added a workaround for EAP servers that incorrectly use same Id for
  1491. sequential EAP packets
  1492. * changed libpcap/libdnet configuration to use .config variable,
  1493. CONFIG_DNET_PCAP, instead of requiring Makefile modification
  1494. * improved downgrade attack detection in IE verification of msg 3/4:
  1495. verify both WPA and RSN IEs, if present, not only the selected one;
  1496. reject the AP if an RSN IE is found in msg 3/4, but not in Beacon or
  1497. Probe Response frame, and RSN is enabled in wpa_supplicant
  1498. configuration
  1499. * fixed WPA msg 3/4 processing to allow Key Data field contain other
  1500. IEs than just one WPA IE
  1501. * added support for FreeBSD and driver interface for the BSD net80211
  1502. layer (CONFIG_DRIVER_BSD=y in .config); please note that some of the
  1503. required kernel mods have not yet been committed
  1504. * made EAP workarounds configurable; enabled by default, can be
  1505. disabled with network block option eap_workaround=0
  1506. 2004-07-17 - v0.2.4 (beginning of 0.2.x stable releases)
  1507. * resolved couple of interoperability issues with EAP-PEAPv1 and
  1508. Phase 2 (inner EAP) fragment reassembly
  1509. * driver_madwifi: fixed WEP key configuration for IEEE 802.1X when the
  1510. AP is using non-zero key index for the unicast key and key index zero
  1511. for the broadcast key
  1512. * driver_hostap: fixed IEEE 802.1X WEP key updates and
  1513. re-authentication by allowing unencrypted EAPOL frames when not using
  1514. WPA
  1515. * added a new driver interface, 'wext', which uses only standard,
  1516. driver independent functionality in Linux wireless extensions;
  1517. currently, this can be used only for non-WPA IEEE 802.1X mode, but
  1518. eventually, this is to be extended to support full WPA/WPA2 once
  1519. Linux wireless extensions get support for this
  1520. * added support for mode in which the driver is responsible for AP
  1521. scanning and selection; this is disabled by default and can be
  1522. enabled with global ap_scan=0 variable in wpa_supplicant.conf;
  1523. this mode can be used, e.g., with generic 'wext' driver interface to
  1524. use wpa_supplicant as IEEE 802.1X Supplicant with any Linux driver
  1525. supporting wireless extensions.
  1526. * driver_madwifi: fixed WPA2 configuration and scan_ssid=1 (e.g.,
  1527. operation with an AP that does not include SSID in the Beacon frames)
  1528. * added support for new EAP authentication methods:
  1529. EAP-TTLS/EAP-OTP, EAP-PEAPv0/OTP, EAP-PEAPv1/OTP, EAP-OTP
  1530. * added support for asking one-time-passwords from frontends (e.g.,
  1531. wpa_cli); this 'otp' command works otherwise like 'password' command,
  1532. but the password is used only once and the frontend will be asked for
  1533. a new password whenever a request from authenticator requires a
  1534. password; this can be used with both EAP-OTP and EAP-GTC
  1535. * changed wpa_cli to automatically re-establish connection so that it
  1536. does not need to be re-started when wpa_supplicant is terminated and
  1537. started again
  1538. * improved user data (identity/password/otp) requests through
  1539. frontends: process pending EAPOL packets after getting new
  1540. information so that full authentication does not need to be
  1541. restarted; in addition, send pending requests again whenever a new
  1542. frontend is attached
  1543. * changed control frontends to use a new directory for socket files to
  1544. make it easier for wpa_cli to automatically select between interfaces
  1545. and to provide access control for the control interface;
  1546. wpa_supplicant.conf: ctrl_interface is now a path
  1547. (/var/run/wpa_supplicant is the recommended path) and
  1548. ctrl_interface_group can be used to select which group gets access to
  1549. the control interface;
  1550. wpa_cli: by default, try to connect to the first interface available
  1551. in /var/run/wpa_supplicant; this path can be overriden with -p option
  1552. and an interface can be selected with -i option (i.e., in most common
  1553. cases, wpa_cli does not need to get any arguments)
  1554. * added support for LEAP
  1555. * added driver interface for Linux ndiswrapper
  1556. * added priority option for network blocks in the configuration file;
  1557. this allows networks to be grouped based on priority (the scan
  1558. results are searched for matches with network blocks in this order)
  1559. 2004-06-20 - v0.2.3
  1560. * sort scan results to improve AP selection
  1561. * fixed control interface socket removal for some error cases
  1562. * improved scan requesting and authentication timeout
  1563. * small improvements/bug fixes for EAP-MSCHAPv2, EAP-PEAP, and
  1564. TLS processing
  1565. * PEAP version can now be forced with phase1="peapver=<ver>"
  1566. (mostly for testing; by default, the highest version supported by
  1567. both the Supplicant and Authentication Server is selected
  1568. automatically)
  1569. * added support for madwifi driver (Atheros ar521x)
  1570. * added a workaround for cases where AP sets Install Tx/Rx bit for
  1571. WPA Group Key messages when pairwise keys are used (without this,
  1572. the Group Key would be used for Tx and the AP would drop frames
  1573. from the station)
  1574. * added GSM SIM/USIM interface for GSM authentication algorithm for
  1575. EAP-SIM; this requires pcsc-lite
  1576. * added support for ATMEL AT76C5XXx driver
  1577. * fixed IEEE 802.1X WEP key derivation in the case where Authenticator
  1578. does not include key data in the EAPOL-Key frame (i.e., part of
  1579. EAP keying material is used as data encryption key)
  1580. * added support for using plaintext and static WEP networks
  1581. (key_mgmt=NONE)
  1582. 2004-05-31 - v0.2.2
  1583. * added support for new EAP authentication methods:
  1584. EAP-TTLS/EAP-MD5-Challenge
  1585. EAP-TTLS/EAP-GTC
  1586. EAP-TTLS/EAP-MSCHAPv2
  1587. EAP-TTLS/EAP-TLS
  1588. EAP-TTLS/MSCHAPv2
  1589. EAP-TTLS/MSCHAP
  1590. EAP-TTLS/PAP
  1591. EAP-TTLS/CHAP
  1592. EAP-PEAP/TLS
  1593. EAP-PEAP/GTC
  1594. EAP-PEAP/MD5-Challenge
  1595. EAP-GTC
  1596. EAP-SIM (not yet complete; needs GSM/SIM authentication interface)
  1597. * added support for anonymous identity (to be used when identity is
  1598. sent in plaintext; real identity will be used within TLS protected
  1599. tunnel (e.g., with EAP-TTLS)
  1600. * added event messages from wpa_supplicant to frontends, e.g., wpa_cli
  1601. * added support for requesting identity and password information using
  1602. control interface; in other words, the password for EAP-PEAP or
  1603. EAP-TTLS does not need to be included in the configuration file since
  1604. a frontand (e.g., wpa_cli) can ask it from the user
  1605. * improved RSN pre-authentication to use a candidate list and process
  1606. all candidates from each scan; not only one per scan
  1607. * fixed RSN IE and WPA IE capabilities field parsing
  1608. * ignore Tx bit in GTK IE when Pairwise keys are used
  1609. * avoid making new scan requests during IEEE 802.1X negotiation
  1610. * use openssl/libcrypto for MD5 and SHA-1 when compiling wpa_supplicant
  1611. with TLS support (this replaces the included implementation with
  1612. library code to save about 8 kB since the library code is needed
  1613. anyway for TLS)
  1614. * fixed WPA-PSK only mode when compiled without IEEE 802.1X support
  1615. (i.e., without CONFIG_IEEE8021X_EAPOL=y in .config)
  1616. 2004-05-06 - v0.2.1
  1617. * added support for internal IEEE 802.1X (actually, IEEE 802.1aa/D6.1)
  1618. Supplicant
  1619. - EAPOL state machines for Supplicant [IEEE 802.1aa/D6.1]
  1620. - EAP peer state machine [draft-ietf-eap-statemachine-02.pdf]
  1621. - EAP-MD5 (cannot be used with WPA-RADIUS)
  1622. [draft-ietf-eap-rfc2284bis-09.txt]
  1623. - EAP-TLS [RFC 2716]
  1624. - EAP-MSCHAPv2 (currently used only with EAP-PEAP)
  1625. - EAP-PEAP/MSCHAPv2 [draft-josefsson-pppext-eap-tls-eap-07.txt]
  1626. [draft-kamath-pppext-eap-mschapv2-00.txt]
  1627. (PEAP version 0, 1, and parts of 2; only 0 and 1 are enabled by
  1628. default; tested with FreeRADIUS, Microsoft IAS, and Funk Odyssey)
  1629. - new configuration file options: eap, identity, password, ca_cert,
  1630. client_cert, privatekey, private_key_passwd
  1631. - Xsupplicant is not required anymore, but it can be used by
  1632. disabling the internal IEEE 802.1X Supplicant with -e command line
  1633. option
  1634. - this code is not included in the default build; Makefile need to
  1635. be edited for this (uncomment lines for selected functionality)
  1636. - EAP-TLS and EAP-PEAP require openssl libraries
  1637. * use module prefix in debug messages (WPA, EAP, EAP-TLS, ..)
  1638. * added support for non-WPA IEEE 802.1X mode with dynamic WEP keys
  1639. (i.e., complete IEEE 802.1X/EAP authentication and use IEEE 802.1X
  1640. EAPOL-Key frames instead of WPA key handshakes)
  1641. * added support for IEEE 802.11i/RSN (WPA2)
  1642. - improved PTK Key Handshake
  1643. - PMKSA caching, pre-authentication
  1644. * fixed wpa_supplicant to ignore possible extra data after WPA
  1645. EAPOL-Key packets (this fixes 'Invalid EAPOL-Key MIC when using
  1646. TPTK' error from message 3 of 4-Way Handshake in case the AP
  1647. includes extra data after the EAPOL-Key)
  1648. * added interface for external programs (frontends) to control
  1649. wpa_supplicant
  1650. - CLI example (wpa_cli) with interactive mode and command line
  1651. mode
  1652. - replaced SIGUSR1 status/statistics with the new control interface
  1653. * made some feature compile time configurable
  1654. - .config file for make
  1655. - driver interfaces (hostap, hermes, ..)
  1656. - EAPOL/EAP functions
  1657. 2004-02-15 - v0.2.0
  1658. * Initial version of wpa_supplicant
