a new command line parameter -u can be used to enable updating of 530 SQN in Milenage file 531 - use 5 bit IND for SQN updates 532 - SQLite database can now be used to store Milenage information 533 * EAP-SIM/AKA DB: added optional use of SQLite database for pseudonyms 534 and reauth data 535 * added support for Chargeable-User-Identity (RFC 4372) 536 * added radius_auth_req_attr and radius_acct_req_attr configuration 537 parameters to allow adding/overriding of RADIUS attributes in 538 Access-Request and Accounting-Request packets 539 * added support for RADIUS dynamic authorization server (RFC 5176) 540 * added initial support for WNM operations 541 - BSS max idle period 542 - WNM-Sleep Mode 543 * added new WPS NFC ctrl_iface mechanism 544 - removed obsoleted WPS_OOB command (including support for deprecated 545 UFD config_method) 546 * added FT support for drivers that implement MLME internally 547 * added SA Query support for drivers that implement MLME internally 548 * removed default ACM=1 from AC_VO and AC_VI 549 * changed VENDOR-TEST EAP method to use proper private enterprise number 550 (this will not interoperate with older versions) 551 * added hostapd.conf parameter vendor_elements to allow arbitrary vendor 552 specific elements to be added to the Beacon and Probe Response frames 553 * added support for configuring GCMP cipher for IEEE 802.11ad 554 * added support for 256-bit AES with internal TLS implementation 555 * changed EAPOL transmission to use AC_VO if WMM is active 556 * fixed EAP-TLS/PEAP/TTLS/FAST server to validate TLS Message Length 557 correctly; invalid messages could have caused the hostapd process to 558 terminate before this fix [CVE-2012-4445] 559 * limit number of active wildcard PINs for WPS Registrar to one to avoid 560 confusing behavior with multiple wildcard PINs 561 * added a workaround for WPS PBC session overlap detection to avoid 562 interop issues with deployed station implementations that do not 563 remove active PBC indication from Probe Request frames properly 564 * added support for using SQLite for the eap_user database 565 * added Acct-Session-Id attribute into Access-Request messages 566 * fixed EAPOL frame transmission to non-QoS STAs with nl80211 567 (do not send QoS frames if the STA did not negotiate use of QoS for 568 this association) 569 5702012-05-10 - v1.0 571 * Add channel selection support in hostapd. See hostapd.conf. 572 * Add support for IEEE 802.11v Time Advertisement mechanism with UTC 573 TSF offset. See hostapd.conf for config info. 574 * Delay STA entry removal until Deauth/Disassoc TX status in AP mode. 575 This allows the driver to use PS buffering of Deauthentication and 576 Disassociation frames when the STA is in power save sleep. Only 577 available with drivers that provide TX status events for Deauth/ 578 Disassoc frames (nl80211). 579 * Allow PMKSA caching to be disabled on the Authenticator. See 580 hostap.conf config parameter disable_pmksa_caching. 581 * atheros: Add support for IEEE 802.11w configuration. 582 * bsd: Add support for setting HT values in IFM_MMASK. 583 * Allow client isolation to be configured with ap_isolate. Client 584 isolation can be used to prevent low-level bridging of frames 585 between associated stations in the BSS. By default, this bridging 586 is allowed. 587 * Allow coexistance of HT BSSes with WEP/TKIP BSSes. 588 * Add require_ht config parameter, which can be used to configure 589 hostapd to reject association with any station that does not support 590 HT PHY. 591 * Add support for writing debug log to a file using "-f" option. Also 592 add relog CLI command to re-open the log file. 593 * Add bridge handling for WDS STA interfaces. By default they are 594 added to the configured bridge of the AP interface (if present), 595 but the user can also specify a separate bridge using cli command 596 wds_bridge. 597 * hostapd_cli: 598 - Add wds_bridge command for specifying bridge for WDS STA 599 interfaces. 600 - Add relog command for reopening log file. 601 - Send AP-STA-DISCONNECTED event when an AP disconnects a station 602 due to inactivity. 603 - Add wps_config ctrl_interface command for configuring AP. This 604 command can be used to configure the AP using the internal WPS 605 registrar. It works in the same way as new AP settings received 606 from an ER. 607 - Many WPS/WPS ER commands - see WPS/WPS ER sections for details. 608 - Add command get version, that returns hostapd version string. 609 * WNM: Add BSS Transition Management Request for ESS Disassoc Imminent. 610 Use hostapd_cli ess_disassoc (STA addr) (URL) to send the 611 notification to the STA. 612 * Allow AP mode to disconnect STAs based on low ACK condition (when 613 the data connection is not working properly, e.g., due to the STA 614 going outside the range of the AP). Disabled by default, enable by 615 config option disassoc_low_ack. 616 * Add WPA_IGNORE_CONFIG_ERRORS build option to continue in case of bad 617 config file. 618 * WPS: 619 - Send AP Settings as a wrapped Credential attribute to ctrl_iface 620 in WPS-NEW-AP-SETTINGS. 621 - Dispatch more WPS events through hostapd ctrl_iface. 622 - Add mechanism for indicating non-standard WPS errors. 623 - Change concurrent radio AP to use only one WPS UPnP instance. 624 - Add wps_check_pin command for processing PIN from user input. 625 UIs can use this command to process a PIN entered by a user and to 626 validate the checksum digit (if present). 627 - Add hostap_cli get_config command to display current AP config. 628 - Add new hostapd_cli command, wps_ap_pin, to manage AP PIN at 629 runtime and support dynamic AP PIN management. 630 - Disable AP PIN after 10 consecutive failures. Slow down attacks 631 on failures up to 10. 632 - Allow AP to start in Enrollee mode without AP PIN for probing, 633 to be compatible with Windows 7. 634 - Add Config Error into WPS-FAIL events to provide more info 635 to the user on how to resolve the issue. 636 - When controlling multiple interfaces: 637 - apply WPS commands to all interfaces configured to use WPS 638 - apply WPS config changes to all interfaces that use WPS 639 - when an attack is detected on any interface, disable AP PIN on 640 all interfaces 641 * WPS ER: 642 - Show SetSelectedRegistrar events as ctrl_iface events. 643 - Add special AP Setup Locked mode to allow read only ER. 644 ap_setup_locked=2 can now be used to enable a special mode where 645 WPS ER can learn the current AP settings, but cannot change them. 646 * WPS 2.0: Add support for WPS 2.0 (CONFIG_WPS2) 647 - Add build option CONFIG_WPS_EXTENSIBILITY_TESTING to enable tool 648 for testing protocol extensibility. 649 - Add build option CONFIG_WPS_STRICT to allow disabling of WPS 650 workarounds. 651 - Add support for AuthorizedMACs attribute. 652 * TDLS: 653 - Allow TDLS use or TDLS channel switching in the BSS to be 654 prohibited in the BSS, using config params tdls_prohibit and 655 tdls_prohibit_chan_switch. 656 * EAP server: Add support for configuring fragment size (see 657 fragment_size in hostapd.conf). 658 * wlantest: Add a tool wlantest for IEEE802.11 protocol testing. 659 wlantest can be used to capture frames from a monitor interface 660 for realtime capturing or from pcap files for offline analysis. 661 * Interworking: Support added for 802.11u. Enable in .config with 662 CONFIG_INTERWORKING. See hostapd.conf for config parameters for 663 interworking. 664 * Android: Add build and runtime support for Android hostapd. 665 * Add a new debug message level for excessive information. Use 666 -ddd to enable. 667 * TLS: Add support for tls_disable_time_checks=1 in client mode. 668 * Internal TLS: 669 - Add support for TLS v1.1 (RFC 4346). Enable with build parameter 670 CONFIG_TLSV11. 671 - Add domainComponent parser for X.509 names 672 * Reorder some IEs to get closer to IEEE 802.11 standard. Move 673 WMM into end of Beacon, Probe Resp and (Re)Assoc Resp frames. 674 Move HT IEs to be later in (Re)Assoc Resp. 675 * Many bugfixes. 676 6772010-04-18 - v0.7.2 678 * fix WPS internal Registrar use when an external Registrar is also 679 active 680 * bsd: Cleaned up driver wrapper and added various low-level 681 configuration options 682 * TNC: fixed issues with fragmentation 683 * EAP-TNC: add Flags field into fragment acknowledgement (needed to 684 interoperate with other implementations; may potentially breaks 685 compatibility with older wpa_supplicant/hostapd versions) 686 * cleaned up driver wrapper API for multi-BSS operations 687 * nl80211: fix multi-BSS and VLAN operations 688 * fix number of issues with IEEE 802.11r/FT;

the new API 706 is not fully backwards compatible, so out-of-tree driver wrappers 707 will need modifications 708 * cleaned up various module interfaces 709 * merge hostapd and wpa_supplicant developers' documentation into a 710 single document 711 * fixed HT Capabilities IE with nl80211 drivers 712 * moved generic AP functionality code into src/ap 713 * WPS: handle Selected Registrar as union of info from all Registrars 714 * remove obsolete Prism54.org driver wrapper 715 * added internal debugging mechanism with backtrace support and memory 716 allocation/freeing validation, etc. tests (CONFIG_WPA_TRACE=y) 717 * EAP-FAST server: piggyback Phase 2 start with the end of Phase 1 718 * WPS: add support for dynamically selecting whether to provision the 719 PSK as an ASCII passphrase or PSK 720 * added support for WDS (4-address frame) mode with per-station virtual 721 interfaces (wds_sta=1 in config file; only supported with 722 driver=nl80211 for now) 723 * fixed WPS Probe Request processing to handle missing required 724 attribute 725 * fixed PKCS#12 use with OpenSSL 1.0.0 726 * detect bridge interface automatically so that bridge parameter in 727 hostapd.conf becomes optional (though, it may now be used to 728 automatically add then WLAN interface into a bridge with 729 driver=nl80211) 730 7312009-11-21 - v0.7.0 732 * increased hostapd_cli ping interval to 5 seconds and made this 733 configurable with a new command line options (-G<seconds>) 734 * driver_nl80211: use Linux socket filter to improve performance 735 * added support for external Registrars with WPS (UPnP transport) 736 * 802.11n: scan for overlapping BSSes before starting 20/40 MHz channel 737 * driver_nl80211: fixed STA accounting data collection (TX/RX bytes 738 reported correctly; TX/RX packets not yet available from kernel) 739 * added support for WPS USBA out-of-band mechanism with USB Flash 740 Drives (UFD) (CONFIG_WPS_UFD=y) 741 * fixed EAPOL/EAP reauthentication when using an external RADIUS 742 authentication server 743 * fixed TNC with EAP-TTLS 744 * fixed IEEE 802.11r key derivation function to match with the standard 745 (note: this breaks interoperability with previous version) [Bug 303] 746 * fixed SHA-256 based key derivation function to match with the 747 standard when using CCMP (for IEEE 802.11r and IEEE 802.11w) 748 (note: this breaks interoperability with previous version) [Bug 307] 749 * added number of code size optimizations to remove unnecessary 750 functionality from the program binary based on build configuration 751 (part of this automatic; part configurable with CONFIG_NO_* build 752 options) 753 * use shared driver wrapper files with wpa_supplicant 754 * driver_nl80211: multiple updates to provide support for new Linux 755 nl80211/mac80211 functionality 756 * updated management frame protection to use IEEE Std 802.11w-2009 757 * fixed number of small WPS issues and added workarounds to 758 interoperate with common deployed broken implementations 759 * added some IEEE 802.11n co-existence rules to disable 40 MHz channels 760 or modify primary/secondary channels if needed based on neighboring 761 networks 762 * added support for NFC out-of-band mechanism with WPS 763 * added preliminary support for IEEE 802.11r RIC processing 764 7652009-01-06 - v0.6.7 766 * added support for Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) 767 (hostapd can now be configured to act as an integrated WPS Registrar 768 and provision credentials for WPS Enrollees using PIN and PBC 769 methods; external wireless Registrar can configure the AP, but 770 external WLAN Manager Registrars are not supported); WPS support can 771 be enabled by adding CONFIG_WPS=y into .config and setting the 772 runtime configuration variables in hostapd.conf (see WPS section in 773 the example configuration file); new hostapd_cli commands wps_pin and 774 wps_pbc are used to configure WPS negotiation; see README-WPS for 775 more details 776 * added IEEE 802.11n HT capability configuration (ht_capab) 777 * added support for generating Country IE based on nl80211 regulatory 778 information (added if ieee80211d=1 in configuration) 779 * fixed WEP authentication (both Open System and Shared Key) with 780 mac80211 781 * added support for EAP-AKA' (draft-arkko-eap-aka-kdf) 782 * added support for using driver_test over UDP socket 783 * changed EAP-GPSK to use the IANA assigned EAP method type 51 784 * updated management frame protection to use IEEE 802.11w/D7.0 785 * fixed retransmission of EAP requests if no response is received 786 7872008-11-23 - v0.6.6 788 * added a new configuration option, wpa_ptk_rekey, that can be used to 789 enforce frequent PTK rekeying, e.g., to mitigate some attacks against 790 TKIP deficiencies 791 * updated OpenSSL code for EAP-FAST to use an updated version of the 792 session ticket overriding API that was included into the upstream 793 OpenSSL 0.9.9 tree on 2008-11-15 (no additional OpenSSL patch is 794 needed with that version anymore) 795 * changed channel flags configuration to read the information from 796 the driver (e.g., via driver_nl80211 when using mac80211) instead of 797 using hostapd as the source of the regulatory information (i.e., 798 information from CRDA is now used with mac80211); this allows 5 GHz 799 channels to be used with hostapd (if allowed in the current 800 regulatory domain) 801 * fixed EAP-TLS message processing for the last TLS message if it is 802 large enough to require fragmentation (e.g., if a large Session 803 Ticket data is included) 804 * fixed listen interval configuration for nl80211 drivers 805 8062008-11-01 - v0.6.5 807 * added support for SHA-256 as X.509 certificate digest when using the 808 internal X.509/TLSv1 implementation 809 * fixed EAP-FAST PAC-Opaque padding (0.6.4 broke this for some peer 810 identity lengths) 811 * fixed internal TLSv1 implementation for abbreviated handshake (used 812 by EAP-FAST server) 813 * added support for setting VLAN ID for STAs based on local MAC ACL 814 (accept_mac_file) as an alternative for RADIUS server-based 815 configuration 816 * updated management frame protection to use IEEE 802.11w/D6.0 817 (adds a new association ping to protect against unauthenticated 818 authenticate or (re)associate request frames dropping association) 819 * added support for using SHA256-based stronger key derivation for WPA2 820 (IEEE 802.11w) 821 * added new "driver wrapper" for RADIUS-only configuration 822 (driver=none in hostapd.conf; CONFIG_DRIVER_NONE=y in .config) 823 * fixed WPA/RSN IE validation to verify that the proto (WPA vs. WPA2) 824 is enabled in configuration 825 * changed EAP-FAST configuration to use separate fields for A-ID and 826 A-ID-Info (eap_fast_a_id_info) to allow A-ID to be set to a fixed 827 16-octet len binary value for better interoperability with some peer 828 implementations; eap_fast_a_id is now configured as a hex string 829 * driver_nl80211: Updated to match the current Linux mac80211 AP mode 830 configuration (wireless-testing.git and Linux kernel releases 831 starting from 2.6.29) 832 8332008-08-10 - v0.6.4 834 * added peer identity into EAP-FAST PAC-Opaque and skip Phase 2 835 Identity Request if identity is already known 836 * added support for EAP Sequences in EAP-FAST Phase 2 837 * added support for EAP-TNC (Trusted Network Connect) 838 (this version implements the EAP-TNC method and EAP-TTLS/EAP-FAST 839 changes needed to run two methods in sequence (IF-T) and the IF-IMV 840 and IF-TNCCS interfaces from TNCS) 841 * added support for optional cryptobinding with PEAPv0 842 * added fragmentation support for EAP-TNC 843 * added support for fragmenting EAP-TTLS/PEAP/FAST Phase 2 (tunneled) 844 data 845 * added support for opportunistic key caching (OKC) 846 8472008-02-22 - v0.6.3 848 * fixed Reassociation Response callback processing when using internal 849 MLME (driver_{hostap,nl80211,test}.c) 850 * updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D9.0 851 * copy optional Proxy-State attributes into RADIUS response when acting 852 as a RADIUS authentication server 853 * fixed EAPOL state machine to handle a case in which no response is 854 received from the RADIUS authentication server; previous version 855 could have triggered a crash in some cases after a timeout 856 * fixed EAP-SIM/AKA realm processing to allow decorated usernames to 857 be used 858 * added a workaround for EAP-SIM/AKA peers that include incorrect null 859 termination in the username 860 * fixed EAP-SIM/AKA protected result indication to include AT_COUNTER 861 attribute in notification messages only when using fast 862 reauthentication 863 * fixed EAP-SIM Start response processing for fast reauthentication 864 case 865 * added support for pending EAP processing in EAP-{PEAP,TTLS,FAST} 866 phase 2 to allow EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA to be used as the Phase 2 method 867 8682008-01-01 - v0.6.2 869 * fixed EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA message parser to validate attribute 870 lengths properly to avoid potential crash caused by invalid messages 871 * added data structure for storing allocated buffers (struct wpabuf); 872 this does not affect hostapd usage, but many of the APIs changed 873 and various interfaces (e.g., EAP) is not compatible with old 874 versions 875 * added support for protecting EAP-AKA/Identity messages with 876 AT_CHECKCODE (optional feature in RFC 4187) 877 * added support for protected result indication with AT_RESULT_IND for 878 EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA (eap_sim_aka_result_ind=1) 879 * added support for configuring EAP-TTLS phase 2 non-EAP methods in 880 EAP server configuration; previously all four were enabled for every 881 phase 2 user, now all four are disabled by default and need to be 882 enabled with new method names TTLS-PAP, TTLS-CHAP, TTLS-MSCHAP, 883 TTLS-MSCHAPV2 884 * removed old debug printing mechanism and the related 'debug' 885 parameter in the configuration file; debug verbosity is now set with 886 -d (or -dd) command line arguments 887 * added support for EAP-IKEv2 (draft-tschofenig-eap-ikev2-15.txt); 888 only shared key/password authentication is supported in this version 889 8902007-11-24 - v0.6.1 891 * added experimental, integrated TLSv1 server implementation with the 892 needed X.509/ASN.1/RSA/bignum processing (this can be enabled by 893 setting CONFIG_TLS=internal and CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH=y in 894 .config); this can be useful, e.g., if the target system does not 895 have a suitable TLS library and a minimal code size is required 896 * added support for EAP-FAST server method to the integrated EAP 897 server 898 * updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest 899 draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-07.txt) 900 * added a new configuration parameter, rsn_pairwise, to allow different 901 pairwise cipher suites to be enabled for WPA and RSN/WPA2 902 (note: if wpa_pairwise differs from rsn_pairwise, the driver will 903 either need to support this or will have to use the WPA/RSN IEs from 904 hostapd; currently, the included madwifi and bsd driver interfaces do 905 not have support for this) 906 * updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D8.0 907 9082007-05-28 - v0.6.0 909 * added experimental IEEE 802.11r/D6.0 support 910 * updated EAP-SAKE to RFC 4763 and the IANA-allocated EAP type 48 911 * updated EAP-PSK to use the IANA-allocated EAP type 47 912 * fixed EAP-PSK bit ordering of the Flags field 913 * fixed configuration reloading (SIGHUP) to re-initialize WPA PSKs 914 by reading wpa_psk_file [Bug 181] 915 * fixed EAP-TTLS AVP parser processing for too short AVP lengths 916 * fixed IPv6 connection to RADIUS accounting server 917 * updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest 918 draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-04.txt) 919 * hlr_auc_gw: read GSM triplet file into memory and rotate through the 920 entries instead of only using the same three triplets every time 921 (this does not work properly with tests using multiple clients, but 922 provides bit better triplet data for testing a single client; anyway, 923 if a better quality triplets are needed, GSM-Milenage should be used 924 instead of hardcoded triplet file) 925 * fixed EAP-MSCHAPv2 server to use a space between S and M parameters 926 in Success Request [Bug 203] 927 * added support for sending EAP-AKA Notifications in error cases 928 * updated to use IEEE 802.11w/D2.0 for management frame protection 929 (still experimental) 930 * RADIUS server: added support for processing duplicate messages 931 (retransmissions from RADIUS client) by replying with the previous 932 reply 933 9342006-11-24 - v0.5.6 935 * added support for configuring and controlling multiple BSSes per 936 radio interface (bss=<ifname> in hostapd.conf); this is only 937 available with Devicescape and test driver interfaces 938 * fixed PMKSA cache update in the end of successful RSN 939 pre-authentication 940 * added support for dynamic VLAN configuration (i.e., selecting VLAN-ID 941 for each STA based on RADIUS Access-Accept attributes); this requires 942 VLAN support from the kernel driver/802.11 stack and this is 943 currently only available with Devicescape and test driver interfaces 944 * driver_madwifi: fixed configuration of unencrypted modes (plaintext 945 and IEEE 802.1X without WEP) 946 * removed STAKey handshake since PeerKey handshake has replaced it in 947 IEEE 802.11ma and there are no known deployments of STAKey 948 * updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest 949 draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-01.txt) 950 * added preliminary implementation of IEEE 802.11w/D1.0 (management 951 frame protection) 952 (Note: this requires driver support to work properly.) 953 (Note2: IEEE 802.11w is an unapproved draft and subject to change.) 954 * hlr_auc_gw: added support for GSM-Milenage (for EAP-SIM) 955 * hlr_auc_gw: added support for reading per-IMSI Milenage keys and 956 parameters from a text file to make it possible to implement proper 957 GSM/UMTS authentication server for multiple SIM/USIM cards using 958 EAP-SIM/EAP-AKA 959 * fixed session timeout processing with drivers that do not use 960 ieee802_11.c (e.g., madwifi) 961 9622006-08-27 - v0.5.5 963 * added 'hostapd_cli new_sta <addr>' command for adding a new STA into 964 hostapd (e.g., to initialize wired network authentication based on an 965 external signal) 966 * fixed hostapd to add PMKID KDE into 4-Way Handshake Message 1 when 967 using WPA2 even if PMKSA caching is not used 968 * added -P<pid file> argument for hostapd to write the current process 969 id into a file 970 * added support for RADIUS Authentication Server MIB (RFC 2619) 971 9722006-06-20 - v0.5.4 973 * fixed nt_password_hash build [Bug 144] 974 * added PeerKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e 975 direct link setup (DLS) to replace STAKey handshake 976 * added support for EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK, 977 draft-clancy-emu-eap-shared-secret-00.txt) 978 * fixed a segmentation fault when RSN pre-authentication was completed 979 successfully [Bug 152] 980 9812006-04-27 - v0.5.3 982 * do not build nt_password_hash and hlr_auc_gw by default to avoid 983 requiring a TLS library for a successful build; these programs can be 984 build with 'make nt_password_hash' and 'make hlr_auc_gw' 985 * added a new configuration option, eapol_version, that can be used to 986 set EAPOL version to 1 (default is 2) to work around broken client 987 implementations that drop EAPOL frames which use version number 2 988 [Bug 89] 989 * added support for EAP-SAKE (no EAP method number allocated yet, so 990 this is using the same experimental type 255 as EAP-PSK) 991 * fixed EAP-MSCHAPv2 message length validation 992 9932006-03-19 - v0.5.2 994 * fixed stdarg use in hostapd_logger(): if both stdout and syslog 995 logging was enabled, hostapd could trigger a segmentation fault in 996 vsyslog on some CPU -- C library combinations 997 * moved HLR/AuC gateway implementation for EAP-SIM/AKA into an external 998 program to make it easier to use for implementing real SS7 gateway; 999 eap_sim_db is not anymore used as a file name for GSM authentication 1000 triplets; instead, it is path to UNIX domain socket that will be used 1001 to communicate with the external gateway program (e.g., hlr_auc_gw) 1002 * added example HLR/AuC gateway implementation, hlr_auc_gw, that uses 1003 local information (GSM authentication triplets from a text file and 1004 hardcoded AKA authentication data); this can be used to test EAP-SIM 1005 and EAP-AKA 1006 * added Milenage algorithm (example 3GPP AKA algorithm) to hlr_auc_gw 1007 to make it possible to test EAP-AKA with real USIM cards (this is 1008 disabled by default; define AKA_USE_MILENAGE when building hlr_auc_gw 1009 to enable this) 1010 * driver_madwifi: added support for getting station RSN IE from 1011 madwifi-ng svn r1453 and newer; this fixes RSN that was apparently 1012 broken with earlier change (r1357) in the driver 1013 * changed EAP method registration to use a dynamic list of methods 1014 instead of a static list generated at build time 1015 * fixed WPA message 3/4 not to encrypt Key Data field (WPA IE) 1016 [Bug 125] 1017 * added ap_max_inactivity configuration parameter 1018 10192006-01-29 - v0.5.1 1020 * driver_test: added better support for multiple APs and STAs by using 1021 a directory with sockets that include MAC address for each device in 1022 the name (test_socket=DIR:/tmp/test) 1023 * added support for EAP expanded type (vendor specific EAP methods) 1024 10252005-12-18 - v0.5.0 (beginning of 0.5.x development releases) 1026 * added experimental STAKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e 1027 direct link setup (DLS); note: this is disabled by default in both 1028 build and runtime configuration (can be enabled with CONFIG_STAKEY=y 1029 and stakey=1) 1030 * added support for EAP methods to use callbacks to external programs 1031 by buffering a pending request and processing it after the EAP method 1032 is ready to continue 1033 * improved EAP-SIM database interface to allow external request to GSM 1034 HLR/AuC without blocking hostapd process 1035 * added support for using EAP-SIM pseudonyms and fast re-authentication 1036 * added support for EAP-AKA in the integrated EAP authenticator 1037 * added support for matching EAP identity prefixes (e.g., "1"*) in EAP 1038 user database to allow EAP-SIM/AKA selection without extra roundtrip 1039 for EAP-Nak negotiation 1040 * added support for storing EAP user password as NtPasswordHash instead 1041 of plaintext password when using MSCHAP or MSCHAPv2 for 1042 authentication (hash:<16-octet hex value>); added nt_password_hash 1043 tool for hashing password to generate NtPasswordHash 1044 10452005-11-20 - v0.4.7 (beginning of 0.4.x stable releases) 1046 * driver_wired: fixed EAPOL sending to optionally use PAE group address 1047 as the destination instead of supplicant MAC address; this is 1048 disabled by default, but should be enabled with use_pae_group_addr=1 1049 in configuration file if the wired interface is used by only one 1050 device at the time (common switch configuration) 1051 * driver_madwifi: configure driver to use TKIP countermeasures in order 1052 to get correct behavior (IEEE 802.11 association failing; previously, 1053 association succeeded, but hostpad forced disassociation immediately) 1054 * driver_madwifi: added support for madwifi-ng 1055 10562005-10-27 - v0.4.6 1057 * added support for replacing user identity from EAP with RADIUS 1058 User-Name attribute from Access-Accept message, if that is included, 1059 for the RADIUS accounting messages (e.g., for EAP-PEAP/TTLS to get 1060 tunneled identity into accounting messages when the RADIUS server 1061 does not support better way of doing this with Class attribute) 1062 * driver_madwifi: fixed EAPOL packet receive for configuration where 1063 ath# is part of a bridge interface 1064 * added a configuration file and log analyzer script for logwatch 1065 * fixed EAPOL state machine step function to process all state 1066 transitions before processing new events; this resolves a race 1067 condition in which EAPOL-Start message could trigger hostapd to send 1068 two EAP-Response/Identity frames to the authentication server 1069 10702005-09-25 - v0.4.5 1071 * added client CA list to the TLS certificate request in order to make 1072 it easier for the client to select which certificate to use 1073 * added experimental support for EAP-PSK 1074 * added support for WE-19 (hostap, madwifi) 1075 10762005-08-21 - v0.4.4 1077 * fixed build without CONFIG_RSN_PREAUTH 1078 * fixed FreeBSD build 1079 10802005-06-26 - v0.4.3 1081 * fixed PMKSA caching to copy User-Name and Class attributes so that 1082 RADIUS accounting gets correct information 1083 * start RADIUS accounting only after successful completion of WPA 1084 4-Way Handshake if WPA-PSK is used 1085 * fixed PMKSA caching for the case where STA (re)associates without 1086 first disassociating 1087 10882005-06-12 - v0.4.2 1089 * EAP-PAX is now registered as EAP type 46 1090 * fixed EAP-PAX MAC calculation 1091 * fixed EAP-PAX CK and ICK key derivation 1092 * renamed eap_authenticator configuration variable to eap_server to 1093 better match with RFC 3748 (EAP) terminology 1094 * driver_test: added support for testing hostapd with wpa_supplicant 1095 by using test driver interface without any kernel drivers or network 1096 cards 1097 10982005-05-22 - v0.4.1 1099 * fixed RADIUS server initialization when only auth or acct server 1100 is configured and the other one is left empty 1101 * driver_madwifi: added support for RADIUS accounting 1102 * driver_madwifi: added preliminary support for compiling against 'BSD' 1103 branch of madwifi CVS tree 1104 * driver_madwifi: fixed pairwise key removal to allow WPA reauth 1105 without disassociation 1106 * added support for reading additional certificates from PKCS#12 files 1107 and adding them to the certificate chain 1108 * fixed RADIUS Class attribute processing to only use Access-Accept 1109 packets to update Class; previously, other RADIUS authentication 1110 packets could have cleared Class attribute 1111 * added support for more than one Class attribute in RADIUS packets 1112 * added support for verifying certificate revocation list (CRL) when 1113 using integrated EAP authenticator for EAP-TLS; new hostapd.conf 1114 options 'check_crl'; CRL must be included in the ca_cert file for now 1115 11162005-04-25 - v0.4.0 (beginning of 0.4.x development releases) 1117 * added support for including network information into 1118 EAP-Request/Identity message (ASCII-0 (nul) in eap_message) 1119 (e.g., to implement draft-adrange-eap-network-discovery-07.txt) 1120 * fixed a bug which caused some RSN pre-authentication cases to use 1121 freed memory and potentially crash hostapd 1122 * fixed private key loading for cases where passphrase is not set 1123 * added support for sending TLS alerts and aborting authentication 1124 when receiving a TLS alert 1125 * fixed WPA2 to add PMKSA cache entry when using integrated EAP 1126 authenticator 1127 * fixed PMKSA caching (EAP authentication was not skipped correctly 1128 with the new state machine changes from IEEE 802.1X draft) 1129 * added support for RADIUS over IPv6; own_ip_addr, auth_server_addr, 1130 and acct_server_addr can now be IPv6 addresses (CONFIG_IPV6=y needs 1131 to be added to .config to include IPv6 support); for RADIUS server, 1132 radius_server_ipv6=1 needs to be set in hostapd.conf and addresses 1133 in RADIUS clients file can then use IPv6 format 1134 * added experimental support for EAP-PAX 1135 * replaced hostapd control interface library (hostapd_ctrl.[ch]) with 1136 the same implementation that wpa_supplicant is using (wpa_ctrl.[ch]) 1137 11382005-02-12 - v0.3.7 (beginning of 0.3.x stable releases) 1139 11402005-01-23 - v0.3.5 1141 * added support for configuring a forced PEAP version based on the 1142 Phase 1 identity 1143 * fixed PEAPv1 to use tunneled EAP-Success/Failure instead of EAP-TLV 1144 to terminate authentication 1145 * fixed EAP identifier duplicate processing with the new IEEE 802.1X 1146 draft 1147 * clear accounting data in the driver when starting a new accounting 1148 session 1149 * driver_madwifi: filter wireless events based on ifindex to allow more 1150 than one network interface to be used 1151 * fixed WPA message 2/4 processing not to cancel timeout for TimeoutEvt 1152 setting if the packet does not pass MIC verification (e.g., due to 1153 incorrect PSK); previously, message 1/4 was not tried again if an 1154 invalid message 2/4 was received 1155 * fixed reconfiguration of RADIUS client retransmission timer when 1156 adding a new message to the pending list; previously, timer was not 1157 updated at this point and if there was a pending message with long 1158 time for the next retry, the new message needed to wait that long for 1159 its first retry, too 1160 11612005-01-09 - v0.3.4 1162 * added support for configuring multiple allowed EAP types for Phase 2 1163 authentication (EAP-PEAP, EAP-TTLS) 1164 * fixed EAPOL-Start processing to trigger WPA reauthentication 1165 (previously, only EAPOL authentication was done) 1166 11672005-01-02 - v0.3.3 1168 * added support for EAP-PEAP in the integrated EAP authenticator 1169 * added support for EAP-GTC in the integrated EAP authenticator 1170 * added support for configuring list of EAP methods for Phase 1 so that 1171 the integrated EAP authenticator can, e.g., use the wildcard entry 1172 for EAP-TLS and EAP-PEAP 1173 * added support for EAP-TTLS in the integrated EAP authenticator 1174 * added support for EAP-SIM in the integrated EAP authenticator 1175 * added support for using hostapd as a RADIUS authentication server 1176 with the integrated EAP authenticator taking care of EAP 1177 authentication (new hostapd.conf options: radius_server_clients and 1178 radius_server_auth_port); this is not included in default build; use 1179 CONFIG_RADIUS_SERVER=y in .config to include 1180 11812004-12-19 - v0.3.2 1182 * removed 'daemonize' configuration file option since it has not really 1183 been used at all for more than year 1184 * driver_madwifi: fixed group key setup and added get_ssid method 1185 * added support for EAP-MSCHAPv2 in the integrated EAP authenticator 1186 11872004-12-12 - v0.3.1 1188 * added support for integrated EAP-TLS authentication (new hostapd.conf 1189 variables: ca_cert, server_cert, private_key, private_key_passwd); 1190 this enabled dynamic keying (WPA2/WPA/IEEE 802.1X/WEP) without 1191 external RADIUS server 1192 * added support for reading PKCS#12 (PFX) files (as a replacement for 1193 PEM/DER) to get certificate and private key (CONFIG_PKCS12) 1194 11952004-12-05 - v0.3.0 (beginning of 0.3.x development releases) 1196 * added support for Acct-{Input,Output}-Gigawords 1197 * added support for Event-Timestamp (in RADIUS Accounting-Requests) 1198 * added support for RADIUS Authentication Client MIB (RFC2618) 1199 * added support for RADIUS Accounting Client MIB (RFC2620) 1200 * made EAP re-authentication period configurable (eap_reauth_period) 1201 * fixed EAPOL reauthentication to trigger WPA/WPA2 reauthentication 1202 * fixed EAPOL state machine to stop if STA is removed during 1203 eapol_sm_step(); this fixes at least one segfault triggering bug with 1204 IEEE 802.11i pre-authentication 1205 * added support for multiple WPA pre-shared keys (e.g., one for each 1206 client MAC address or keys shared by a group of clients); 1207 new hostapd.conf field wpa_psk_file for setting path to a text file 1208 containing PSKs, see hostapd.wpa_psk for an example 1209 * added support for multiple driver interfaces to allow hostapd to be 1210 used with other drivers 1211 * added wired authenticator driver interface (driver=wired in 1212 hostapd.conf, see wired.conf for example configuration) 1213 * added madwifi driver interface (driver=madwifi in hostapd.conf, see 1214 madwifi.conf for example configuration; Note: include files from 1215 madwifi project is needed for building and a configuration file, 1216 .config, needs to be created in hostapd directory with 1217 CONFIG_DRIVER_MADWIFI=y to include this driver interface in hostapd 1218 build) 1219 * fixed an alignment issue that could cause SHA-1 to fail on some 1220 platforms (e.g., Intel ixp425 with a compiler that does not 32-bit 1221 align variables) 1222 * fixed RADIUS reconnection after an error in sending interim 1223 accounting packets 1224 * added hostapd control interface for external programs and an example 1225 CLI, hostapd_cli (like wpa_cli for wpa_supplicant) 1226 * started adding dot11, dot1x, radius MIBs ('hostapd_cli mib', 1227 'hostapd_cli sta <addr>') 1228 * finished update from IEEE 802.1X-2001 to IEEE 802.1X-REV (now d11) 1229 * added support for strict GTK rekeying (wpa_strict_rekey in 1230 hostapd.conf) 1231 * updated IAPP to use UDP port 3517 and multicast address 224.0.1.178 1232 (instead of broadcast) for IAPP ADD-notify (moved from draft 3 to 1233 IEEE 802.11F-2003) 1234 * added Prism54 driver interface (driver=prism54 in hostapd.conf; 1235 note: .config needs to be created in hostapd directory with 1236 CONFIG_DRIVER_PRISM54=y to include this driver interface in hostapd 1237 build) 1238 * dual-licensed hostapd (GPLv2 and BSD licenses) 1239 * fixed RADIUS accounting to generate a new session id for cases where 1240 a station reassociates without first being complete deauthenticated 1241 * fixed STA disassociation handler to mark next timeout state to 1242 deauthenticate the station, i.e., skip long wait for inactivity poll 1243 and extra disassociation, if the STA disassociates without 1244 deauthenticating 1245 * added integrated EAP authenticator that can be used instead of 1246 external RADIUS authentication server; currently, only EAP-MD5 is 1247 supported, so this cannot yet be used for key distribution; the EAP 1248 method interface is generic, though, so adding new EAP methods should 1249 be straightforward; new hostapd.conf variables: 'eap_authenticator' 1250 and 'eap_user_file'; this obsoletes "minimal authentication server" 1251 ('minimal_eap' in hostapd.conf) which is now removed 1252 * added support for FreeBSD and driver interface for the BSD net80211 1253 layer (driver=bsd in hostapd.conf and CONFIG_DRIVER_BSD=y in 1254 .config); please note that some of the required kernel mods have not 1255 yet been committed 1256 12572004-07-17 - v0.2.4 (beginning of 0.2.x stable releases) 1258 * fixed some accounting cases where Accounting-Start was sent when 1259 IEEE 802.1X port was being deauthorized 1260 12612004-06-20 - v0.2.3 1262 * modified RADIUS client to re-connect the socket in case of certain 1263 error codes that are generated when a network interface state is 1264 changes (e.g., when IP address changes or the interface is set UP) 1265 * fixed couple of cases where EAPOL state for a station was freed 1266 twice causing a segfault for hostapd 1267 * fixed couple of bugs in processing WPA deauthentication (freed data 1268 was used) 1269 12702004-05-31 - v0.2.2 1271 * fixed WPA/WPA2 group rekeying to use key index correctly (GN/GM) 1272 * fixed group rekeying to send zero TSC in EAPOL-Key messages to fix 1273 cases where STAs dropped multicast frames as replay attacks 1274 * added support for copying RADIUS Attribute 'Class' from 1275 authentication messages into accounting messages 1276 * send canned EAP failure if RADIUS server sends Access-Reject without 1277 EAP message (previously, Supplicant was not notified in this case) 1278 * fixed mixed WPA-PSK and WPA-EAP mode to work with WPA-PSK (i.e., do 1279 not start EAPOL state machines if the STA selected to use WPA-PSK) 1280 12812004-05-06 - v0.2.1 1282 * added WPA and IEEE 802.11i/RSN (WPA2) Authenticator functionality 1283 - based on IEEE 802.11i/D10.0 but modified to interoperate with WPA 1284 (i.e., IEEE 802.11i/D3.0) 1285 - supports WPA-only, RSN-only, and mixed WPA/RSN mode 1286 - both WPA-PSK and WPA-RADIUS/EAP are supported 1287 - PMKSA caching and pre-authentication 1288 - new hostapd.conf variables: wpa, wpa_psk, wpa_passphrase, 1289 wpa_key_mgmt, wpa_pairwise, wpa_group_rekey, wpa_gmk_rekey, 1290 rsn_preauth, rsn_preauth_interfaces 1291 * fixed interim accounting to remove any pending accounting messages 1292 to the STA before sending a new one 1293 12942004-02-15 - v0.2.0 1295 * added support for Acct-Interim-Interval: 1296 - draft-ietf-radius-acct-interim-01.txt 1297 - use Acct-Interim-Interval attribute from Access-Accept if local 1298 'radius_acct_interim_interval' is not set 1299 - allow different update intervals for each STA 1300 * fixed event loop to call signal handlers only after returning from 1301 the real signal handler 1302 * reset sta->timeout_next after successful association to make sure 1303 that the previously registered inactivity timer will not remove the 1304 STA immediately (e.g., if STA deauthenticates and re-associates 1305 before the timer is triggered). 1306 * added new hostapd.conf variable, nas_identifier, that can be used to 1307 add an optional RADIUS Attribute, NAS-Identifier, into authentication 1308 and accounting messages 1309 * added support for Accounting-On and Accounting-Off messages 1310 * fixed accounting session handling to send Accounting-Start only once 1311 per session and not to send Accounting-Stop if the session was not 1312 initialized properly 1313 * fixed Accounting-Stop statistics in cases where the message was 1314 previously sent after the kernel entry for the STA (and/or IEEE 1315 802.1X data) was removed 1316 1317 1318Note: 1319 1320Older changes up to and including v0.1.0 are included in the ChangeLog 1321of the Host AP driver. 1322
