1cc84c1c
JM
3????-??-?? - v0.7.0
4 * increased hostapd_cli ping interval to 5 seconds and made this
5 configurable with a new command line options (-G<seconds>)
9616af52 6 * driver_nl80211: use Linux socket filter to improve performance
f620268f 7 * added support for external Registrars with WPS (UPnP transport)
5eb4e3d0 8 * 802.11n: scan for overlapping BSSes before starting 20/40 MHz channel
dbdf58b0
JM
9 * driver_nl80211: fixed STA accounting data collection (TX/RX bytes
10 reported correctly; TX/RX packets not yet available from kernel)
f4c617ee
JM
11 * added support for WPS USBA out-of-band mechanism with USB Flash
12 Drives (UFD) (CONFIG_WPS_UFD=y)
1cc84c1c 13
6f78f2fb 142009-01-06 - v0.6.7
ad08c363
JM
15 * added support for Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)
16 (hostapd can now be configured to act as an integrated WPS Registrar
17 and provision credentials for WPS Enrollees using PIN and PBC
6f78f2fb
JM
18 methods; external wireless Registrar can configure the AP, but
19 external WLAN Manager Registrars are not supported); WPS support can
ad08c363
JM
20 be enabled by adding CONFIG_WPS=y into .config and setting the
21 runtime configuration variables in hostapd.conf (see WPS section in
22 the example configuration file); new hostapd_cli commands wps_pin and
30f5c941 23 wps_pbc are used to configure WPS negotiation; see README-WPS for
ad08c363 24 more details
fc14f567 25 * added IEEE 802.11n HT capability configuration (ht_capab)
df73d284
JM
26 * added support for generating Country IE based on nl80211 regulatory
27 information (added if ieee80211d=1 in configuration)
4a7b9f88
JM
28 * fixed WEP authentication (both Open System and Shared Key) with
29 mac80211
a9d1364c 30 * added support for EAP-AKA' (draft-arkko-eap-aka-kdf)
e33bbd8f 31 * added support for using driver_test over UDP socket
a2b3a34b 32 * changed EAP-GPSK to use the IANA assigned EAP method type 51
cae93bdc 33 * updated management frame protection to use IEEE 802.11w/D7.0
8e09c6d2 34 * fixed retransmission of EAP requests if no response is received
ad08c363 35
6e89cc43 362008-11-23 - v0.6.6
581a8cde
JM
37 * added a new configuration option, wpa_ptk_rekey, that can be used to
38 enforce frequent PTK rekeying, e.g., to mitigate some attacks against
39 TKIP deficiencies
0cf03892
JM
40 * updated OpenSSL code for EAP-FAST to use an updated version of the
41 session ticket overriding API that was included into the upstream
42 OpenSSL 0.9.9 tree on 2008-11-15 (no additional OpenSSL patch is
43 needed with that version anymore)
10b83bd7
JM
44 * changed channel flags configuration to read the information from
45 the driver (e.g., via driver_nl80211 when using mac80211) instead of
46 using hostapd as the source of the regulatory information (i.e.,
47 information from CRDA is now used with mac80211); this allows 5 GHz
48 channels to be used with hostapd (if allowed in the current
49 regulatory domain)
012783f1
JM
50 * fixed EAP-TLS message processing for the last TLS message if it is
51 large enough to require fragmentation (e.g., if a large Session
52 Ticket data is included)
39e50be0 53 * fixed listen interval configuration for nl80211 drivers
581a8cde 54
988ab690 552008-11-01 - v0.6.5
1d8ce433
JM
56 * added support for SHA-256 as X.509 certificate digest when using the
57 internal X.509/TLSv1 implementation
1f21bc4c
JM
58 * fixed EAP-FAST PAC-Opaque padding (0.6.4 broke this for some peer
59 identity lengths)
4d4233ea
JM
60 * fixed internal TLSv1 implementation for abbreviated handshake (used
61 by EAP-FAST server)
271d2830
JM
62 * added support for setting VLAN ID for STAs based on local MAC ACL
63 (accept_mac_file) as an alternative for RADIUS server-based
64 configuration
5d22a1d5
JM
65 * updated management frame protection to use IEEE 802.11w/D6.0
66 (adds a new association ping to protect against unauthenticated
67 authenticate or (re)associate request frames dropping association)
56586197
JM
68 * added support for using SHA256-based stronger key derivation for WPA2
69 (IEEE 802.11w)
d64dabee
JM
70 * added new "driver wrapper" for RADIUS-only configuration
71 (driver=none in hostapd.conf; CONFIG_DRIVER_NONE=y in .config)
2100a768
JM
72 * fixed WPA/RSN IE validation to verify that the proto (WPA vs. WPA2)
73 is enabled in configuration
2d867244
JM
74 * changed EAP-FAST configuration to use separate fields for A-ID and
75 A-ID-Info (eap_fast_a_id_info) to allow A-ID to be set to a fixed
76 16-octet len binary value for better interoperability with some peer
77 implementations; eap_fast_a_id is now configured as a hex string
07d44bee
JM
78 * driver_nl80211: Updated to match the current Linux mac80211 AP mode
79 configuration (wireless-testing.git and Linux kernel releases
80 starting from 2.6.29)
1d8ce433 81
d48ae45b 822008-08-10 - v0.6.4
829f14be
JM
83 * added peer identity into EAP-FAST PAC-Opaque and skip Phase 2
84 Identity Request if identity is already known
7914585f 85 * added support for EAP Sequences in EAP-FAST Phase 2
502a293e
JM
86 * added support for EAP-TNC (Trusted Network Connect)
87 (this version implements the EAP-TNC method and EAP-TTLS/EAP-FAST
88 changes needed to run two methods in sequence (IF-T) and the IF-IMV
89 and IF-TNCCS interfaces from TNCS)
e7d80033 90 * added support for optional cryptobinding with PEAPv0
1b52ea47 91 * added fragmentation support for EAP-TNC
34f564db
JM
92 * added support for fragmenting EAP-TTLS/PEAP/FAST Phase 2 (tunneled)
93 data
bf98f7f3 94 * added support for opportunistic key caching (OKC)
829f14be 95
6fc6879b
JM
962008-02-22 - v0.6.3
97 * fixed Reassociation Response callback processing when using internal
98 MLME (driver_{hostap,nl80211,test}.c)
99 * updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D9.0
100 * copy optional Proxy-State attributes into RADIUS response when acting
101 as a RADIUS authentication server
102 * fixed EAPOL state machine to handle a case in which no response is
103 received from the RADIUS authentication server; previous version
104 could have triggered a crash in some cases after a timeout
105 * fixed EAP-SIM/AKA realm processing to allow decorated usernames to
106 be used
107 * added a workaround for EAP-SIM/AKA peers that include incorrect null
108 termination in the username
109 * fixed EAP-SIM/AKA protected result indication to include AT_COUNTER
110 attribute in notification messages only when using fast
111 reauthentication
112 * fixed EAP-SIM Start response processing for fast reauthentication
113 case
114 * added support for pending EAP processing in EAP-{PEAP,TTLS,FAST}
115 phase 2 to allow EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA to be used as the Phase 2 method
116
1172008-01-01 - v0.6.2
118 * fixed EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA message parser to validate attribute
119 lengths properly to avoid potential crash caused by invalid messages
120 * added data structure for storing allocated buffers (struct wpabuf);
121 this does not affect hostapd usage, but many of the APIs changed
122 and various interfaces (e.g., EAP) is not compatible with old
123 versions
124 * added support for protecting EAP-AKA/Identity messages with
125 AT_CHECKCODE (optional feature in RFC 4187)
126 * added support for protected result indication with AT_RESULT_IND for
127 EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA (eap_sim_aka_result_ind=1)
128 * added support for configuring EAP-TTLS phase 2 non-EAP methods in
129 EAP server configuration; previously all four were enabled for every
130 phase 2 user, now all four are disabled by default and need to be
131 enabled with new method names TTLS-PAP, TTLS-CHAP, TTLS-MSCHAP,
132 TTLS-MSCHAPV2
133 * removed old debug printing mechanism and the related 'debug'
134 parameter in the configuration file; debug verbosity is now set with
135 -d (or -dd) command line arguments
136 * added support for EAP-IKEv2 (draft-tschofenig-eap-ikev2-15.txt);
137 only shared key/password authentication is supported in this version
138
1392007-11-24 - v0.6.1
140 * added experimental, integrated TLSv1 server implementation with the
141 needed X.509/ASN.1/RSA/bignum processing (this can be enabled by
142 setting CONFIG_TLS=internal and CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH=y in
143 .config); this can be useful, e.g., if the target system does not
144 have a suitable TLS library and a minimal code size is required
145 * added support for EAP-FAST server method to the integrated EAP
146 server
147 * updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
148 draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-07.txt)
149 * added a new configuration parameter, rsn_pairwise, to allow different
150 pairwise cipher suites to be enabled for WPA and RSN/WPA2
151 (note: if wpa_pairwise differs from rsn_pairwise, the driver will
152 either need to support this or will have to use the WPA/RSN IEs from
153 hostapd; currently, the included madwifi and bsd driver interfaces do
154 not have support for this)
155 * updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D8.0
156
1572007-05-28 - v0.6.0
158 * added experimental IEEE 802.11r/D6.0 support
159 * updated EAP-SAKE to RFC 4763 and the IANA-allocated EAP type 48
160 * updated EAP-PSK to use the IANA-allocated EAP type 47
161 * fixed EAP-PSK bit ordering of the Flags field
162 * fixed configuration reloading (SIGHUP) to re-initialize WPA PSKs
163 by reading wpa_psk_file [Bug 181]
164 * fixed EAP-TTLS AVP parser processing for too short AVP lengths
165 * fixed IPv6 connection to RADIUS accounting server
166 * updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
167 draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-04.txt)
168 * hlr_auc_gw: read GSM triplet file into memory and rotate through the
169 entries instead of only using the same three triplets every time
170 (this does not work properly with tests using multiple clients, but
171 provides bit better triplet data for testing a single client; anyway,
172 if a better quality triplets are needed, GSM-Milenage should be used
173 instead of hardcoded triplet file)
174 * fixed EAP-MSCHAPv2 server to use a space between S and M parameters
175 in Success Request [Bug 203]
176 * added support for sending EAP-AKA Notifications in error cases
177 * updated to use IEEE 802.11w/D2.0 for management frame protection
178 (still experimental)
179 * RADIUS server: added support for processing duplicate messages
180 (retransmissions from RADIUS client) by replying with the previous
181 reply
182
1832006-11-24 - v0.5.6
184 * added support for configuring and controlling multiple BSSes per
185 radio interface (bss=<ifname> in hostapd.conf); this is only
186 available with Devicescape and test driver interfaces
187 * fixed PMKSA cache update in the end of successful RSN
188 pre-authentication
189 * added support for dynamic VLAN configuration (i.e., selecting VLAN-ID
190 for each STA based on RADIUS Access-Accept attributes); this requires
191 VLAN support from the kernel driver/802.11 stack and this is
192 currently only available with Devicescape and test driver interfaces
193 * driver_madwifi: fixed configuration of unencrypted modes (plaintext
194 and IEEE 802.1X without WEP)
195 * removed STAKey handshake since PeerKey handshake has replaced it in
196 IEEE 802.11ma and there are no known deployments of STAKey
197 * updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
198 draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-01.txt)
199 * added preliminary implementation of IEEE 802.11w/D1.0 (management
200 frame protection)
201 (Note: this requires driver support to work properly.)
202 (Note2: IEEE 802.11w is an unapproved draft and subject to change.)
203 * hlr_auc_gw: added support for GSM-Milenage (for EAP-SIM)
204 * hlr_auc_gw: added support for reading per-IMSI Milenage keys and
205 parameters from a text file to make it possible to implement proper
206 GSM/UMTS authentication server for multiple SIM/USIM cards using
207 EAP-SIM/EAP-AKA
208 * fixed session timeout processing with drivers that do not use
209 ieee802_11.c (e.g., madwifi)
210
2112006-08-27 - v0.5.5
212 * added 'hostapd_cli new_sta <addr>' command for adding a new STA into
213 hostapd (e.g., to initialize wired network authentication based on an
214 external signal)
215 * fixed hostapd to add PMKID KDE into 4-Way Handshake Message 1 when
216 using WPA2 even if PMKSA caching is not used
217 * added -P<pid file> argument for hostapd to write the current process
218 id into a file
219 * added support for RADIUS Authentication Server MIB (RFC 2619)
220
2212006-06-20 - v0.5.4
222 * fixed nt_password_hash build [Bug 144]
223 * added PeerKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e
224 direct link setup (DLS) to replace STAKey handshake
225 * added support for EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK,
226 draft-clancy-emu-eap-shared-secret-00.txt)
227 * fixed a segmentation fault when RSN pre-authentication was completed
228 successfully [Bug 152]
229
2302006-04-27 - v0.5.3
231 * do not build nt_password_hash and hlr_auc_gw by default to avoid
232 requiring a TLS library for a successful build; these programs can be
233 build with 'make nt_password_hash' and 'make hlr_auc_gw'
234 * added a new configuration option, eapol_version, that can be used to
235 set EAPOL version to 1 (default is 2) to work around broken client
236 implementations that drop EAPOL frames which use version number 2
237 [Bug 89]
238 * added support for EAP-SAKE (no EAP method number allocated yet, so
239 this is using the same experimental type 255 as EAP-PSK)
240 * fixed EAP-MSCHAPv2 message length validation
241
2422006-03-19 - v0.5.2
243 * fixed stdarg use in hostapd_logger(): if both stdout and syslog
244 logging was enabled, hostapd could trigger a segmentation fault in
245 vsyslog on some CPU -- C library combinations
246 * moved HLR/AuC gateway implementation for EAP-SIM/AKA into an external
247 program to make it easier to use for implementing real SS7 gateway;
248 eap_sim_db is not anymore used as a file name for GSM authentication
249 triplets; instead, it is path to UNIX domain socket that will be used
250 to communicate with the external gateway program (e.g., hlr_auc_gw)
251 * added example HLR/AuC gateway implementation, hlr_auc_gw, that uses
252 local information (GSM authentication triplets from a text file and
253 hardcoded AKA authentication data); this can be used to test EAP-SIM
254 and EAP-AKA
255 * added Milenage algorithm (example 3GPP AKA algorithm) to hlr_auc_gw
256 to make it possible to test EAP-AKA with real USIM cards (this is
257 disabled by default; define AKA_USE_MILENAGE when building hlr_auc_gw
258 to enable this)
259 * driver_madwifi: added support for getting station RSN IE from
260 madwifi-ng svn r1453 and newer; this fixes RSN that was apparently
261 broken with earlier change (r1357) in the driver
262 * changed EAP method registration to use a dynamic list of methods
263 instead of a static list generated at build time
264 * fixed WPA message 3/4 not to encrypt Key Data field (WPA IE)
265 [Bug 125]
266 * added ap_max_inactivity configuration parameter
267
2682006-01-29 - v0.5.1
269 * driver_test: added better support for multiple APs and STAs by using
270 a directory with sockets that include MAC address for each device in
271 the name (test_socket=DIR:/tmp/test)
272 * added support for EAP expanded type (vendor specific EAP methods)
273
2742005-12-18 - v0.5.0 (beginning of 0.5.x development releases)
275 * added experimental STAKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e
276 direct link setup (DLS); note: this is disabled by default in both
277 build and runtime configuration (can be enabled with CONFIG_STAKEY=y
278 and stakey=1)
279 * added support for EAP methods to use callbacks to external programs
280 by buffering a pending request and processing it after the EAP method
281 is ready to continue
282 * improved EAP-SIM database interface to allow external request to GSM
283 HLR/AuC without blocking hostapd process
284 * added support for using EAP-SIM pseudonyms and fast re-authentication
285 * added support for EAP-AKA in the integrated EAP authenticator
286 * added support for matching EAP identity prefixes (e.g., "1"*) in EAP
287 user database to allow EAP-SIM/AKA selection without extra roundtrip
288 for EAP-Nak negotiation
289 * added support for storing EAP user password as NtPasswordHash instead
290 of plaintext password when using MSCHAP or MSCHAPv2 for
291 authentication (hash:<16-octet hex value>); added nt_password_hash
292 tool for hashing password to generate NtPasswordHash
293
2942005-11-20 - v0.4.7 (beginning of 0.4.x stable releases)
295 * driver_wired: fixed EAPOL sending to optionally use PAE group address
296 as the destination instead of supplicant MAC address; this is
297 disabled by default, but should be enabled with use_pae_group_addr=1
298 in configuration file if the wired interface is used by only one
299 device at the time (common switch configuration)
300 * driver_madwifi: configure driver to use TKIP countermeasures in order
301 to get correct behavior (IEEE 802.11 association failing; previously,
302 association succeeded, but hostpad forced disassociation immediately)
303 * driver_madwifi: added support for madwifi-ng
304
3052005-10-27 - v0.4.6
306 * added support for replacing user identity from EAP with RADIUS
307 User-Name attribute from Access-Accept message, if that is included,
308 for the RADIUS accounting messages (e.g., for EAP-PEAP/TTLS to get
309 tunneled identity into accounting messages when the RADIUS server
310 does not support better way of doing this with Class attribute)
311 * driver_madwifi: fixed EAPOL packet receive for configuration where
312 ath# is part of a bridge interface
313 * added a configuration file and log analyzer script for logwatch
314 * fixed EAPOL state machine step function to process all state
315 transitions before processing new events; this resolves a race
316 condition in which EAPOL-Start message could trigger hostapd to send
317 two EAP-Response/Identity frames to the authentication server
318
3192005-09-25 - v0.4.5
320 * added client CA list to the TLS certificate request in order to make
321 it easier for the client to select which certificate to use
322 * added experimental support for EAP-PSK
323 * added support for WE-19 (hostap, madwifi)
324
3252005-08-21 - v0.4.4
326 * fixed build without CONFIG_RSN_PREAUTH
327 * fixed FreeBSD build
328
3292005-06-26 - v0.4.3
330 * fixed PMKSA caching to copy User-Name and Class attributes so that
331 RADIUS accounting gets correct information
332 * start RADIUS accounting only after successful completion of WPA
333 4-Way Handshake if WPA-PSK is used
334 * fixed PMKSA caching for the case where STA (re)associates without
335 first disassociating
336
3372005-06-12 - v0.4.2
338 * EAP-PAX is now registered as EAP type 46
339 * fixed EAP-PAX MAC calculation
340 * fixed EAP-PAX CK and ICK key derivation
341 * renamed eap_authenticator configuration variable to eap_server to
342 better match with RFC 3748 (EAP) terminology
343 * driver_test: added support for testing hostapd with wpa_supplicant
344 by using test driver interface without any kernel drivers or network
345 cards
346
3472005-05-22 - v0.4.1
348 * fixed RADIUS server initialization when only auth or acct server
349 is configured and the other one is left empty
350 * driver_madwifi: added support for RADIUS accounting
351 * driver_madwifi: added preliminary support for compiling against 'BSD'
352 branch of madwifi CVS tree
353 * driver_madwifi: fixed pairwise key removal to allow WPA reauth
354 without disassociation
355 * added support for reading additional certificates from PKCS#12 files
356 and adding them to the certificate chain
357 * fixed RADIUS Class attribute processing to only use Access-Accept
358 packets to update Class; previously, other RADIUS authentication
359 packets could have cleared Class attribute
360 * added support for more than one Class attribute in RADIUS packets
361 * added support for verifying certificate revocation list (CRL) when
362 using integrated EAP authenticator for EAP-TLS; new hostapd.conf
363 options 'check_crl'; CRL must be included in the ca_cert file for now
364
3652005-04-25 - v0.4.0 (beginning of 0.4.x development releases)
366 * added support for including network information into
367 EAP-Request/Identity message (ASCII-0 (nul) in eap_message)
368 (e.g., to implement draft-adrange-eap-network-discovery-07.txt)
369 * fixed a bug which caused some RSN pre-authentication cases to use
370 freed memory and potentially crash hostapd
371 * fixed private key loading for cases where passphrase is not set
372 * added support for sending TLS alerts and aborting authentication
373 when receiving a TLS alert
374 * fixed WPA2 to add PMKSA cache entry when using integrated EAP
375 authenticator
376 * fixed PMKSA caching (EAP authentication was not skipped correctly
377 with the new state machine changes from IEEE 802.1X draft)
378 * added support for RADIUS over IPv6; own_ip_addr, auth_server_addr,
379 and acct_server_addr can now be IPv6 addresses (CONFIG_IPV6=y needs
380 to be added to .config to include IPv6 support); for RADIUS server,
381 radius_server_ipv6=1 needs to be set in hostapd.conf and addresses
382 in RADIUS clients file can then use IPv6 format
383 * added experimental support for EAP-PAX
384 * replaced hostapd control interface library (hostapd_ctrl.[ch]) with
385 the same implementation that wpa_supplicant is using (wpa_ctrl.[ch])
386
3872005-02-12 - v0.3.7 (beginning of 0.3.x stable releases)
388
3892005-01-23 - v0.3.5
390 * added support for configuring a forced PEAP version based on the
391 Phase 1 identity
392 * fixed PEAPv1 to use tunneled EAP-Success/Failure instead of EAP-TLV
393 to terminate authentication
394 * fixed EAP identifier duplicate processing with the new IEEE 802.1X
395 draft
396 * clear accounting data in the driver when starting a new accounting
397 session
398 * driver_madwifi: filter wireless events based on ifindex to allow more
399 than one network interface to be used
400 * fixed WPA message 2/4 processing not to cancel timeout for TimeoutEvt
401 setting if the packet does not pass MIC verification (e.g., due to
402 incorrect PSK); previously, message 1/4 was not tried again if an
403 invalid message 2/4 was received
404 * fixed reconfiguration of RADIUS client retransmission timer when
405 adding a new message to the pending list; previously, timer was not
406 updated at this point and if there was a pending message with long
407 time for the next retry, the new message needed to wait that long for
408 its first retry, too
409
4102005-01-09 - v0.3.4
411 * added support for configuring multiple allowed EAP types for Phase 2
412 authentication (EAP-PEAP, EAP-TTLS)
413 * fixed EAPOL-Start processing to trigger WPA reauthentication
414 (previously, only EAPOL authentication was done)
415
4162005-01-02 - v0.3.3
417 * added support for EAP-PEAP in the integrated EAP authenticator
418 * added support for EAP-GTC in the integrated EAP authenticator
419 * added support for configuring list of EAP methods for Phase 1 so that
420 the integrated EAP authenticator can, e.g., use the wildcard entry
421 for EAP-TLS and EAP-PEAP
422 * added support for EAP-TTLS in the integrated EAP authenticator
423 * added support for EAP-SIM in the integrated EAP authenticator
424 * added support for using hostapd as a RADIUS authentication server
425 with the integrated EAP authenticator taking care of EAP
426 authentication (new hostapd.conf options: radius_server_clients and
427 radius_server_auth_port); this is not included in default build; use
428 CONFIG_RADIUS_SERVER=y in .config to include
429
4302004-12-19 - v0.3.2
431 * removed 'daemonize' configuration file option since it has not really
432 been used at all for more than year
433 * driver_madwifi: fixed group key setup and added get_ssid method
434 * added support for EAP-MSCHAPv2 in the integrated EAP authenticator
435
4362004-12-12 - v0.3.1
437 * added support for integrated EAP-TLS authentication (new hostapd.conf
438 variables: ca_cert, server_cert, private_key, private_key_passwd);
439 this enabled dynamic keying (WPA2/WPA/IEEE 802.1X/WEP) without
440 external RADIUS server
441 * added support for reading PKCS#12 (PFX) files (as a replacement for
442 PEM/DER) to get certificate and private key (CONFIG_PKCS12)
443
4442004-12-05 - v0.3.0 (beginning of 0.3.x development releases)
445 * added support for Acct-{Input,Output}-Gigawords
446 * added support for Event-Timestamp (in RADIUS Accounting-Requests)
447 * added support for RADIUS Authentication Client MIB (RFC2618)
448 * added support for RADIUS Accounting Client MIB (RFC2620)
449 * made EAP re-authentication period configurable (eap_reauth_period)
450 * fixed EAPOL reauthentication to trigger WPA/WPA2 reauthentication
451 * fixed EAPOL state machine to stop if STA is removed during
452 eapol_sm_step(); this fixes at least one segfault triggering bug with
453 IEEE 802.11i pre-authentication
454 * added support for multiple WPA pre-shared keys (e.g., one for each
455 client MAC address or keys shared by a group of clients);
456 new hostapd.conf field wpa_psk_file for setting path to a text file
457 containing PSKs, see hostapd.wpa_psk for an example
458 * added support for multiple driver interfaces to allow hostapd to be
459 used with other drivers
460 * added wired authenticator driver interface (driver=wired in
461 hostapd.conf, see wired.conf for example configuration)
462 * added madwifi driver interface (driver=madwifi in hostapd.conf, see
463 madwifi.conf for example configuration; Note: include files from
464 madwifi project is needed for building and a configuration file,
465 .config, needs to be created in hostapd directory with
466 CONFIG_DRIVER_MADWIFI=y to include this driver interface in hostapd
467 build)
468 * fixed an alignment issue that could cause SHA-1 to fail on some
469 platforms (e.g., Intel ixp425 with a compiler that does not 32-bit
470 align variables)
471 * fixed RADIUS reconnection after an error in sending interim
472 accounting packets
473 * added hostapd control interface for external programs and an example
474 CLI, hostapd_cli (like wpa_cli for wpa_supplicant)
475 * started adding dot11, dot1x, radius MIBs ('hostapd_cli mib',
476 'hostapd_cli sta <addr>')
477 * finished update from IEEE 802.1X-2001 to IEEE 802.1X-REV (now d11)
478 * added support for strict GTK rekeying (wpa_strict_rekey in
479 hostapd.conf)
480 * updated IAPP to use UDP port 3517 and multicast address 224.0.1.178
481 (instead of broadcast) for IAPP ADD-notify (moved from draft 3 to
482 IEEE 802.11F-2003)
483 * added Prism54 driver interface (driver=prism54 in hostapd.conf;
484 note: .config needs to be created in hostapd directory with
485 CONFIG_DRIVER_PRISM54=y to include this driver interface in hostapd
486 build)
487 * dual-licensed hostapd (GPLv2 and BSD licenses)
488 * fixed RADIUS accounting to generate a new session id for cases where
489 a station reassociates without first being complete deauthenticated
490 * fixed STA disassociation handler to mark next timeout state to
491 deauthenticate the station, i.e., skip long wait for inactivity poll
492 and extra disassociation, if the STA disassociates without
493 deauthenticating
494 * added integrated EAP authenticator that can be used instead of
495 external RADIUS authentication server; currently, only EAP-MD5 is
496 supported, so this cannot yet be used for key distribution; the EAP
497 method interface is generic, though, so adding new EAP methods should
498 be straightforward; new hostapd.conf variables: 'eap_authenticator'
499 and 'eap_user_file'; this obsoletes "minimal authentication server"
500 ('minimal_eap' in hostapd.conf) which is now removed
501 * added support for FreeBSD and driver interface for the BSD net80211
502 layer (driver=bsd in hostapd.conf and CONFIG_DRIVER_BSD=y in
503 .config); please note that some of the required kernel mods have not
504 yet been committed
505
5062004-07-17 - v0.2.4 (beginning of 0.2.x stable releases)
507 * fixed some accounting cases where Accounting-Start was sent when
508 IEEE 802.1X port was being deauthorized
509
5102004-06-20 - v0.2.3
511 * modified RADIUS client to re-connect the socket in case of certain
512 error codes that are generated when a network interface state is
513 changes (e.g., when IP address changes or the interface is set UP)
514 * fixed couple of cases where EAPOL state for a station was freed
515 twice causing a segfault for hostapd
516 * fixed couple of bugs in processing WPA deauthentication (freed data
517 was used)
518
5192004-05-31 - v0.2.2
520 * fixed WPA/WPA2 group rekeying to use key index correctly (GN/GM)
521 * fixed group rekeying to send zero TSC in EAPOL-Key messages to fix
522 cases where STAs dropped multicast frames as replay attacks
523 * added support for copying RADIUS Attribute 'Class' from
524 authentication messages into accounting messages
525 * send canned EAP failure if RADIUS server sends Access-Reject without
526 EAP message (previously, Supplicant was not notified in this case)
527 * fixed mixed WPA-PSK and WPA-EAP mode to work with WPA-PSK (i.e., do
528 not start EAPOL state machines if the STA selected to use WPA-PSK)
529
5302004-05-06 - v0.2.1
531 * added WPA and IEEE 802.11i/RSN (WPA2) Authenticator functionality
532 - based on IEEE 802.11i/D10.0 but modified to interoperate with WPA
533 (i.e., IEEE 802.11i/D3.0)
534 - supports WPA-only, RSN-only, and mixed WPA/RSN mode
535 - both WPA-PSK and WPA-RADIUS/EAP are supported
536 - PMKSA caching and pre-authentication
537 - new hostapd.conf variables: wpa, wpa_psk, wpa_passphrase,
538 wpa_key_mgmt, wpa_pairwise, wpa_group_rekey, wpa_gmk_rekey,
539 rsn_preauth, rsn_preauth_interfaces
540 * fixed interim accounting to remove any pending accounting messages
541 to the STA before sending a new one
542
5432004-02-15 - v0.2.0
544 * added support for Acct-Interim-Interval:
545 - draft-ietf-radius-acct-interim-01.txt
546 - use Acct-Interim-Interval attribute from Access-Accept if local
547 'radius_acct_interim_interval' is not set
548 - allow different update intervals for each STA
549 * fixed event loop to call signal handlers only after returning from
550 the real signal handler
551 * reset sta->timeout_next after successful association to make sure
552 that the previously registered inactivity timer will not remove the
553 STA immediately (e.g., if STA deauthenticates and re-associates
554 before the timer is triggered).
555 * added new hostapd.conf variable, nas_identifier, that can be used to
556 add an optional RADIUS Attribute, NAS-Identifier, into authentication
557 and accounting messages
558 * added support for Accounting-On and Accounting-Off messages
559 * fixed accounting session handling to send Accounting-Start only once
560 per session and not to send Accounting-Stop if the session was not
561 initialized properly
562 * fixed Accounting-Stop statistics in cases where the message was
563 previously sent after the kernel entry for the STA (and/or IEEE
564 802.1X data) was removed
565
566
