1ChangeLog for hostapd
2
32010-01-12 - v0.6.10
4	* fixed SHA-256 based key derivation function to match with the
5	  standard when using CCMP (for IEEE 802.11r and IEEE 802.11w)
6	  (note: this breaks interoperability with previous version) [Bug 307]
7	* fixed WPS selected registrar expiration for internal PIN registrar
8	* disable PMTU discovery for RADIUS packets
9	* fixed WPS UPnP SSDP on 32-bit targets
10	* fixed WPS AP reconfiguration with drivers that do not use hostapd
11	  MLME
12	* fixed RSN parameter setting for multi-BSS case
13	* added WPS workarounds for known interoperability issues with broken,
14	  deployed implementation
15	* update IEEE 802.11w implementation to match with the published
16	  standard
17	* fixed OpCode when proxying WSC_ACK or WSC_NACK from WPS ER

19	* fixed compilation with newer GnuTLS versions
20	* added support for defining timeout for WPS PINs
21	* fixed WPS Probe Request processing to handle missing required
22	  attribute
23	* fixed PKCS#12 use with OpenSSL 1.0.0
24
252009-03-23 - v0.6.9
26	* driver_nl80211: fixed STA accounting data collection (TX/RX bytes
27	  reported correctly; TX/RX packets not yet available from kernel)
28	* fixed EAPOL/EAP reauthentication when using an external RADIUS
29	  authentication server
30	* driver_prism54: fixed segmentation fault on initialization
31	* fixed TNC with EAP-TTLS
32	* fixed IEEE 802.11r key derivation function to match with the standard
33	  (note: this breaks interoperability with previous version) [Bug 303]
34
352009-02-15 - v0.6.8
36	* increased hostapd_cli ping interval to 5 seconds and made this
37	  configurable with a new command line options (-G<seconds>)
38	* driver_nl80211: use Linux socket filter to improve performance
39	* added support for external Registrars with WPS (UPnP transport)
40
412009-01-06 - v0.6.7
42	* added support for Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)
43	  (hostapd can now be configured to act as an integrated WPS Registrar
44	  and provision credentials for WPS Enrollees using PIN and PBC
45	  methods; external wireless Registrar can configure the AP, but
46	  external WLAN Manager Registrars are not supported); WPS support can
47	  be enabled by adding CONFIG_WPS=y into .config and setting the
48	  runtime configuration variables in hostapd.conf (see WPS section in
49	  the example configuration file); new hostapd_cli commands wps_pin and
50	  wps_pbc are used to configure WPS negotiation; see README-WPS for
51	  more details
52	* added IEEE 802.11n HT capability configuration (ht_capab)
53	* added support for generating Country IE based on nl80211 regulatory
54	  information (added if ieee80211d=1 in configuration)
55	* fixed WEP authentication (both Open System and Shared Key) with
56	  mac80211
57	* added support for EAP-AKA' (draft-arkko-eap-aka-kdf)
58	* added support for using driver_test over UDP socket
59	* changed EAP-GPSK to use the IANA assigned EAP method type 51
60	* updated management frame protection to use IEEE 802.11w/D7.0
61	* fixed retransmission of EAP requests if no response is received
62
632008-11-23 - v0.6.6
64	* added a new configuration option, wpa_ptk_rekey, that can be used to
65	  enforce frequent PTK rekeying, e.g., to mitigate some attacks against
66	  TKIP deficiencies
67	* updated OpenSSL code for EAP-FAST to use an updated version of the
68	  session ticket overriding API that was included into the upstream
69	  OpenSSL 0.9.9 tree on 2008-11-15 (no additional OpenSSL patch is
70	  needed with that version anymore)
71	* changed channel flags configuration to read the information from
72	  the driver (e.g., via driver_nl80211 when using mac80211) instead of
73	  using hostapd as the source of the regulatory information (i.e.,
74	  information from CRDA is now used with mac80211); this allows 5 GHz
75	  channels to be used with hostapd (if allowed in the current
76	  regulatory domain)
77	* fixed EAP-TLS message processing for the last TLS message if it is
78	  large enough to require fragmentation (e.g., if a large Session
79	  Ticket data is included)
80	* fixed listen interval configuration for nl80211 drivers
81
822008-11-01 - v0.6.5
83	* added support for SHA-256 as X.509 certificate digest when using the
84	  internal X.509/TLSv1 implementation
85	* fixed EAP-FAST PAC-Opaque padding (0.6.4 broke this for some peer
86	  identity lengths)
87	* fixed internal TLSv1 implementation for abbreviated handshake (used
88	  by EAP-FAST server)
89	* added support for setting VLAN ID for STAs based on local MAC ACL
90	  (accept_mac_file) as an alternative for RADIUS server-based
91	  configuration
92	* updated management frame protection to use IEEE 802.11w/D6.0
93	  (adds a new association ping to protect against unauthenticated
94	  authenticate or (re)associate request frames dropping association)
95	* added support for using SHA256-based stronger key derivation for WPA2
96	  (IEEE 802.11w)
97	* added new "driver wrapper" for RADIUS-only configuration
98	  (driver=none in hostapd.conf; CONFIG_DRIVER_NONE=y in .config)
99	* fixed WPA/RSN IE validation to verify that the proto (WPA vs. WPA2)
100	  is enabled in configuration
101	* changed EAP-FAST configuration to use separate fields for A-ID and
102	  A-ID-Info (eap_fast_a_id_info) to allow A-ID to be set to a fixed
103	  16-octet len binary value for better interoperability with some peer
104	  implementations; eap_fast_a_id is now configured as a hex string
105	* driver_nl80211: Updated to match the current Linux mac80211 AP mode
106	  configuration (wireless-testing.git and Linux kernel releases
107	  starting from 2.6.29)
108
1092008-08-10 - v0.6.4
110	* added peer identity into EAP-FAST PAC-Opaque and skip Phase 2
111	  Identity Request if identity is already known
112	* added support for EAP Sequences in EAP-FAST Phase 2
113	* added support for EAP-TNC (Trusted Network Connect)
114	  (this version implements the EAP-TNC method and EAP-TTLS/EAP-FAST
115	  changes needed to run two methods in sequence (IF-T) and the IF-IMV
116	  and IF-TNCCS interfaces from TNCS)
117	* added support for optional cryptobinding with PEAPv0
118	* added fragmentation support for EAP-TNC
119	* added support for fragmenting EAP-TTLS/PEAP/FAST Phase 2 (tunneled)
120	  data
121	* added support for opportunistic key caching (OKC)
122
1232008-02-22 - v0.6.3
124	* fixed Reassociation Response callback processing when using internal
125	  MLME (driver_{hostap,nl80211,test}.c)
126	* updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D9.0
127	* copy optional Proxy-State attributes into RADIUS response when acting
128	  as a RADIUS authentication server
129	* fixed EAPOL state machine to handle a case in which no response is
130	  received from the RADIUS authentication server; previous version
131	  could have triggered a crash in some cases after a timeout
132	* fixed EAP-SIM/AKA realm processing to allow decorated usernames to
133	  be used
134	* added a workaround for EAP-SIM/AKA peers that include incorrect null
135	  termination in the username
136	* fixed EAP-SIM/AKA protected result indication to include AT_COUNTER
137	  attribute in notification messages only when using fast
138	  reauthentication
139	* fixed EAP-SIM Start response processing for fast reauthentication
140	  case
141	* added support for pending EAP processing in EAP-{PEAP,TTLS,FAST}
142	  phase 2 to allow EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA to be used as the Phase 2 method
143
1442008-01-01 - v0.6.2
145	* fixed EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA message parser to validate attribute
146	  lengths properly to avoid potential crash caused by invalid messages
147	* added data structure for storing allocated buffers (struct wpabuf);
148	  this does not affect hostapd usage, but many of the APIs changed
149	  and various interfaces (e.g., EAP) is not compatible with old
150	  versions
151	* added support for protecting EAP-AKA/Identity messages with
152	  AT_CHECKCODE (optional feature in RFC 4187)
153	* added support for protected result indication with AT_RESULT_IND for
154	  EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA (eap_sim_aka_result_ind=1)
155	* added support for configuring EAP-TTLS phase 2 non-EAP methods in
156	  EAP server configuration; previously all four were enabled for every
157	  phase 2 user, now all four are disabled by default and need to be
158	  enabled with new method names TTLS-PAP, TTLS-CHAP, TTLS-MSCHAP,
159	  TTLS-MSCHAPV2
160	* removed old debug printing mechanism and the related 'debug'
161	  parameter in the configuration file; debug verbosity is now set with
162	  -d (or -dd) command line arguments
163	* added support for EAP-IKEv2 (draft-tschofenig-eap-ikev2-15.txt);
164	  only shared key/password authentication is supported in this version
165
1662007-11-24 - v0.6.1
167	* added experimental, integrated TLSv1 server implementation with the
168	  needed X.509/ASN.1/RSA/bignum processing (this can be enabled by
169	  setting CONFIG_TLS=internal and CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH=y in
170	  .config); this can be useful, e.g., if the target system does not
171	  have a suitable TLS library and a minimal code size is required
172	* added support for EAP-FAST server method to the integrated EAP
173	  server
174	* updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
175	  draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-07.txt)
176	* added a new configuration parameter, rsn_pairwise, to allow different
177	  pairwise cipher suites to be enabled for WPA and RSN/WPA2
178	  (note: if wpa_pairwise differs from rsn_pairwise, the driver will
179	  either need to support this or will have to use the WPA/RSN IEs from
180	  hostapd; currently, the included madwifi and bsd driver interfaces do
181	  not have support for this)
182	* updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D8.0
183
1842007-05-28 - v0.6.0
185	* added experimental IEEE 802.11r/D6.0 support
186	* updated EAP-SAKE to RFC 4763 and the IANA-allocated EAP type 48
187	* updated EAP-PSK to use the IANA-allocated EAP type 47
188	* fixed EAP-PSK bit ordering of the Flags field
189	* fixed configuration reloading (SIGHUP) to re-initialize WPA PSKs
190	  by reading wpa_psk_file [Bug 181]
191	* fixed EAP-TTLS AVP parser processing for too short AVP lengths
192	* fixed IPv6 connection to RADIUS accounting server
193	* updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
194	  draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-04.txt)
195	* hlr_auc_gw: read GSM triplet file into memory and rotate through the
196	  entries instead of only using the same three triplets every time
197	  (this does not work properly with tests using multiple clients, but
198	  provides bit better triplet data for testing a single client; anyway,
199	  if a better quality triplets are needed, GSM-Milenage should be used
200	  instead of hardcoded triplet file)
201	* fixed EAP-MSCHAPv2 server to use a space between S and M parameters
202	  in Success Request [Bug 203]
203	* added support for sending EAP-AKA Notifications in error cases
204	* updated to use IEEE 802.11w/D2.0 for management frame protection
205	  (still experimental)
206	* RADIUS server: added support for processing duplicate messages
207	  (retransmissions from RADIUS client) by replying with the previous
208	  reply
209
2102006-11-24 - v0.5.6
211	* added support for configuring and controlling multiple BSSes per
212	  radio interface (bss=<ifname> in hostapd.conf); this is only
213	  available with Devicescape and test driver interfaces
214	* fixed PMKSA cache update in the end of successful RSN
215	  pre-authentication
216	* added support for dynamic VLAN configuration (i.e., selecting VLAN-ID
217	  for each STA based on RADIUS Access-Accept attributes); this requires
218	  VLAN support from the kernel driver/802.11 stack and this is
219	  currently only available with Devicescape and test driver interfaces
220	* driver_madwifi: fixed configuration of unencrypted modes (plaintext
221	  and IEEE 802.1X without WEP)
222	* removed STAKey handshake since PeerKey handshake has replaced it in
223	  IEEE 802.11ma and there are no known deployments of STAKey
224	* updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
225	  draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-01.txt)
226	* added preliminary implementation of IEEE 802.11w/D1.0 (management
227	  frame protection)
228	  (Note: this requires driver support to work properly.)
229	  (Note2: IEEE 802.11w is an unapproved draft and subject to change.)
230	* hlr_auc_gw: added support for GSM-Milenage (for EAP-SIM)
231	* hlr_auc_gw: added support for reading per-IMSI Milenage keys and
232	  parameters from a text file to make it possible to implement proper
233	  GSM/UMTS authentication server for multiple SIM/USIM cards using
234	  EAP-SIM/EAP-AKA
235	* fixed session timeout processing with drivers that do not use
236	  ieee802_11.c (e.g., madwifi)
237
2382006-08-27 - v0.5.5
239	* added 'hostapd_cli new_sta <addr>' command for adding a new STA into
240	  hostapd (e.g., to initialize wired network authentication based on an
241	  external signal)
242	* fixed hostapd to add PMKID KDE into 4-Way Handshake Message 1 when
243	  using WPA2 even if PMKSA caching is not used
244	* added -P<pid file> argument for hostapd to write the current process
245	  id into a file
246	* added support for RADIUS Authentication Server MIB (RFC 2619)
247
2482006-06-20 - v0.5.4
249	* fixed nt_password_hash build [Bug 144]
250	* added PeerKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e
251	  direct link setup (DLS) to replace STAKey handshake
252	* added support for EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK,
253	  draft-clancy-emu-eap-shared-secret-00.txt)
254	* fixed a segmentation fault when RSN pre-authentication was completed
255	  successfully [Bug 152]
256
2572006-04-27 - v0.5.3
258	* do not build nt_password_hash and hlr_auc_gw by default to avoid
259	  requiring a TLS library for a successful build; these programs can be
260	  build with 'make nt_password_hash' and 'make hlr_auc_gw'
261	* added a new configuration option, eapol_version, that can be used to
262	  set EAPOL version to 1 (default is 2) to work around broken client
263	  implementations that drop EAPOL frames which use version number 2
264	  [Bug 89]
265	* added support for EAP-SAKE (no EAP method number allocated yet, so
266	  this is using the same experimental type 255 as EAP-PSK)
267	* fixed EAP-MSCHAPv2 message length validation
268
2692006-03-19 - v0.5.2
270	* fixed stdarg use in hostapd_logger(): if both stdout and syslog
271	  logging was enabled, hostapd could trigger a segmentation fault in
272	  vsyslog on some CPU -- C library combinations
273	* moved HLR/AuC gateway implementation for EAP-SIM/AKA into an external
274	  program to make it easier to use for implementing real SS7 gateway;
275	  eap_sim_db is not anymore used as a file name for GSM authentication
276	  triplets; instead, it is path to UNIX domain socket that will be used
277	  to communicate with the external gateway program (e.g., hlr_auc_gw)
278	* added example HLR/AuC gateway implementation, hlr_auc_gw, that uses
279	  local information (GSM authentication triplets from a text file and
280	  hardcoded AKA authentication data); this can be used to test EAP-SIM
281	  and EAP-AKA
282	* added Milenage algorithm (example 3GPP AKA algorithm) to hlr_auc_gw
283	  to make it possible to test EAP-AKA with real USIM cards (this is
284	  disabled by default; define AKA_USE_MILENAGE when building hlr_auc_gw
285	  to enable this)
286	* driver_madwifi: added support for getting station RSN IE from
287	  madwifi-ng svn r1453 and newer; this fixes RSN that was apparently
288	  broken with earlier change (r1357) in the driver
289	* changed EAP method registration to use a dynamic list of methods
290	  instead of a static list generated at build time
291	* fixed WPA message 3/4 not to encrypt Key Data field (WPA IE)
292	  [Bug 125]
293	* added ap_max_inactivity configuration parameter
294
2952006-01-29 - v0.5.1
296	* driver_test: added better support for multiple APs and STAs by using
297	  a directory with sockets that include MAC address for each device in
298	  the name (test_socket=DIR:/tmp/test)
299	* added support for EAP expanded type (vendor specific EAP methods)
300
3012005-12-18 - v0.5.0 (beginning of 0.5.x development releases)
302	* added experimental STAKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e
303	  direct link setup (DLS); note: this is disabled by default in both
304	  build and runtime configuration (can be enabled with CONFIG_STAKEY=y
305	  and stakey=1)
306	* added support for EAP methods to use callbacks to external programs
307	  by buffering a pending request and processing it after the EAP method
308	  is ready to continue
309	* improved EAP-SIM database interface to allow external request to GSM
310	  HLR/AuC without blocking hostapd process
311	* added support for using EAP-SIM pseudonyms and fast re-authentication
312	* added support for EAP-AKA in the integrated EAP authenticator
313	* added support for matching EAP identity prefixes (e.g., "1"*) in EAP
314	  user database to allow EAP-SIM/AKA selection without extra roundtrip
315	  for EAP-Nak negotiation
316	* added support for storing EAP user password as NtPasswordHash instead
317	  of plaintext password when using MSCHAP or MSCHAPv2 for
318	  authentication (hash:<16-octet hex value>); added nt_password_hash
319	  tool for hashing password to generate NtPasswordHash
320
3212005-11-20 - v0.4.7 (beginning of 0.4.x stable releases)
322	* driver_wired: fixed EAPOL sending to optionally use PAE group address
323	  as the destination instead of supplicant MAC address; this is
324	  disabled by default, but should be enabled with use_pae_group_addr=1
325	  in configuration file if the wired interface is used by only one
326	  device at the time (common switch configuration)
327	* driver_madwifi: configure driver to use TKIP countermeasures in order
328	  to get correct behavior (IEEE 802.11 association failing; previously,
329	  association succeeded, but hostpad forced disassociation immediately)
330	* driver_madwifi: added support for madwifi-ng
331
3322005-10-27 - v0.4.6
333	* added support for replacing user identity from EAP with RADIUS
334	  User-Name attribute from Access-Accept message, if that is included,
335	  for the RADIUS accounting messages (e.g., for EAP-PEAP/TTLS to get
336	  tunneled identity into accounting messages when the RADIUS server
337	  does not support better way of doing this with Class attribute)
338	* driver_madwifi: fixed EAPOL packet receive for configuration where
339	  ath# is part of a bridge interface
340	* added a configuration file and log analyzer script for logwatch
341	* fixed EAPOL state machine step function to process all state
342	  transitions before processing new events; this resolves a race
343	  condition in which EAPOL-Start message could trigger hostapd to send
344	  two EAP-Response/Identity frames to the authentication server
345
3462005-09-25 - v0.4.5
347	* added client CA list to the TLS certificate request in order to make
348	  it easier for the client to select which certificate to use
349	* added experimental support for EAP-PSK
350	* added support for WE-19 (hostap, madwifi)
351
3522005-08-21 - v0.4.4
353	* fixed build without CONFIG_RSN_PREAUTH
354	* fixed FreeBSD build
355
3562005-06-26 - v0.4.3
357	* fixed PMKSA caching to copy User-Name and Class attributes so that
358	  RADIUS accounting gets correct information
359	* start RADIUS accounting only after successful completion of WPA
360	  4-Way Handshake if WPA-PSK is used
361	* fixed PMKSA caching for the case where STA (re)associates without
362	  first disassociating
363
3642005-06-12 - v0.4.2
365	* EAP-PAX is now registered as EAP type 46
366	* fixed EAP-PAX MAC calculation
367	* fixed EAP-PAX CK and ICK key derivation
368	* renamed eap_authenticator configuration variable to eap_server to
369	  better match with RFC 3748 (EAP) terminology
370	* driver_test: added support for testing hostapd with wpa_supplicant
371	  by using test driver interface without any kernel drivers or network
372	  cards
373
3742005-05-22 - v0.4.1
375	* fixed RADIUS server initialization when only auth or acct server
376	  is configured and the other one is left empty
377	* driver_madwifi: added support for RADIUS accounting
378	* driver_madwifi: added preliminary support for compiling against 'BSD'
379	  branch of madwifi CVS tree
380	* driver_madwifi: fixed pairwise key removal to allow WPA reauth
381	  without disassociation
382	* added support for reading additional certificates from PKCS#12 files
383	  and adding them to the certificate chain
384	* fixed RADIUS Class attribute processing to only use Access-Accept
385	  packets to update Class; previously, other RADIUS authentication
386	  packets could have cleared Class attribute
387	* added support for more than one Class attribute in RADIUS packets
388	* added support for verifying certificate revocation list (CRL) when
389	  using integrated EAP authenticator for EAP-TLS; new hostapd.conf
390	  options 'check_crl'; CRL must be included in the ca_cert file for now
391
3922005-04-25 - v0.4.0 (beginning of 0.4.x development releases)
393	* added support for including network information into
394	  EAP-Request/Identity message (ASCII-0 (nul) in eap_message)
395	  (e.g., to implement draft-adrange-eap-network-discovery-07.txt)
396	* fixed a bug which caused some RSN pre-authentication cases to use
397	  freed memory and potentially crash hostapd
398	* fixed private key loading for cases where passphrase is not set
399	* added support for sending TLS alerts and aborting authentication
400	  when receiving a TLS alert
401	* fixed WPA2 to add PMKSA cache entry when using integrated EAP
402	  authenticator
403	* fixed PMKSA caching (EAP authentication was not skipped correctly
404	  with the new state machine changes from IEEE 802.1X draft)
405	* added support for RADIUS over IPv6; own_ip_addr, auth_server_addr,
406	  and acct_server_addr can now be IPv6 addresses (CONFIG_IPV6=y needs
407	  to be added to .config to include IPv6 support); for RADIUS server,
408	  radius_server_ipv6=1 needs to be set in hostapd.conf and addresses
409	  in RADIUS clients file can then use IPv6 format
410	* added experimental support for EAP-PAX
411	* replaced hostapd control interface library (hostapd_ctrl.[ch]) with
412	  the same implementation that wpa_supplicant is using (wpa_ctrl.[ch])
413
4142005-02-12 - v0.3.7 (beginning of 0.3.x stable releases)
415
4162005-01-23 - v0.3.5
417	* added support for configuring a forced PEAP version based on the
418	  Phase 1 identity
419	* fixed PEAPv1 to use tunneled EAP-Success/Failure instead of EAP-TLV
420	  to terminate authentication
421	* fixed EAP identifier duplicate processing with the new IEEE 802.1X
422	  draft
423	* clear accounting data in the driver when starting a new accounting
424	  session
425	* driver_madwifi: filter wireless events based on ifindex to allow more
426	  than one network interface to be used
427	* fixed WPA message 2/4 processing not to cancel timeout for TimeoutEvt
428	  setting if the packet does not pass MIC verification (e.g., due to
429	  incorrect PSK); previously, message 1/4 was not tried again if an
430	  invalid message 2/4 was received
431	* fixed reconfiguration of RADIUS client retransmission timer when
432	  adding a new message to the pending list; previously, timer was not
433	  updated at this point and if there was a pending message with long
434	  time for the next retry, the new message needed to wait that long for
435	  its first retry, too
436
4372005-01-09 - v0.3.4
438	* added support for configuring multiple allowed EAP types for Phase 2
439	  authentication (EAP-PEAP, EAP-TTLS)
440	* fixed EAPOL-Start processing to trigger WPA reauthentication
441	  (previously, only EAPOL authentication was done)
442
4432005-01-02 - v0.3.3
444	* added support for EAP-PEAP in the integrated EAP authenticator
445	* added support for EAP-GTC in the integrated EAP authenticator
446	* added support for configuring list of EAP methods for Phase 1 so that
447	  the integrated EAP authenticator can, e.g., use the wildcard entry
448	  for EAP-TLS and EAP-PEAP
449	* added support for EAP-TTLS in the integrated EAP authenticator
450	* added support for EAP-SIM in the integrated EAP authenticator
451	* added support for using hostapd as a RADIUS authentication server
452	  with the integrated EAP authenticator taking care of EAP
453	  authentication (new hostapd.conf options: radius_server_clients and
454	  radius_server_auth_port); this is not included in default build; use
455	  CONFIG_RADIUS_SERVER=y in .config to include
456
4572004-12-19 - v0.3.2
458	* removed 'daemonize' configuration file option since it has not really
459	  been used at all for more than year
460	* driver_madwifi: fixed group key setup and added get_ssid method
461	* added support for EAP-MSCHAPv2 in the integrated EAP authenticator
462
4632004-12-12 - v0.3.1
464	* added support for integrated EAP-TLS authentication (new hostapd.conf
465	  variables: ca_cert, server_cert, private_key, private_key_passwd);
466	  this enabled dynamic keying (WPA2/WPA/IEEE 802.1X/WEP) without
467	  external RADIUS server
468	* added support for reading PKCS#12 (PFX) files (as a replacement for
469	  PEM/DER) to get certificate and private key (CONFIG_PKCS12)
470
4712004-12-05 - v0.3.0 (beginning of 0.3.x development releases)
472	* added support for Acct-{Input,Output}-Gigawords
473	* added support for Event-Timestamp (in RADIUS Accounting-Requests)
474	* added support for RADIUS Authentication Client MIB (RFC2618)
475	* added support for RADIUS Accounting Client MIB (RFC2620)
476	* made EAP re-authentication period configurable (eap_reauth_period)
477	* fixed EAPOL reauthentication to trigger WPA/WPA2 reauthentication
478	* fixed EAPOL state machine to stop if STA is removed during
479	  eapol_sm_step(); this fixes at least one segfault triggering bug with
480	  IEEE 802.11i pre-authentication
481	* added support for multiple WPA pre-shared keys (e.g., one for each
482	  client MAC address or keys shared by a group of clients);
483	  new hostapd.conf field wpa_psk_file for setting path to a text file
484	  containing PSKs, see hostapd.wpa_psk for an example
485	* added support for multiple driver interfaces to allow hostapd to be
486	  used with other drivers
487	* added wired authenticator driver interface (driver=wired in
488	  hostapd.conf, see wired.conf for example configuration)
489	* added madwifi driver interface (driver=madwifi in hostapd.conf, see
490	  madwifi.conf for example configuration; Note: include files from
491	  madwifi project is needed for building and a configuration file,
492	  .config, needs to be created in hostapd directory with
493	  CONFIG_DRIVER_MADWIFI=y to include this driver interface in hostapd
494	  build)
495	* fixed an alignment issue that could cause SHA-1 to fail on some
496	  platforms (e.g., Intel ixp425 with a compiler that does not 32-bit
497	  align variables)
498	* fixed RADIUS reconnection after an error in sending interim
499	  accounting packets
500	* added hostapd control interface for external programs and an example
501	  CLI, hostapd_cli (like wpa_cli for wpa_supplicant)
502	* started adding dot11, dot1x, radius MIBs ('hostapd_cli mib',
503	  'hostapd_cli sta <addr>')
504	* finished update from IEEE 802.1X-2001 to IEEE 802.1X-REV (now d11)
505	* added support for strict GTK rekeying (wpa_strict_rekey in
506	  hostapd.conf)
507	* updated IAPP to use UDP port 3517 and multicast address 224.0.1.178
508	  (instead of broadcast) for IAPP ADD-notify (moved from draft 3 to
509	  IEEE 802.11F-2003)
510	* added Prism54 driver interface (driver=prism54 in hostapd.conf;
511	  note: .config needs to be created in hostapd directory with
512	  CONFIG_DRIVER_PRISM54=y to include this driver interface in hostapd
513	  build)
514	* dual-licensed hostapd (GPLv2 and BSD licenses)
515	* fixed RADIUS accounting to generate a new session id for cases where
516	  a station reassociates without first being complete deauthenticated
517	* fixed STA disassociation handler to mark next timeout state to
518	  deauthenticate the station, i.e., skip long wait for inactivity poll
519	  and extra disassociation, if the STA disassociates without
520	  deauthenticating
521	* added integrated EAP authenticator that can be used instead of
522	  external RADIUS authentication server; currently, only EAP-MD5 is
523	  supported, so this cannot yet be used for key distribution; the EAP
524	  method interface is generic, though, so adding new EAP methods should
525	  be straightforward; new hostapd.conf variables: 'eap_authenticator'
526	  and 'eap_user_file'; this obsoletes "minimal authentication server"
527	  ('minimal_eap' in hostapd.conf) which is now removed
528	* added support for FreeBSD and driver interface for the BSD net80211
529	  layer (driver=bsd in hostapd.conf and CONFIG_DRIVER_BSD=y in
530	  .config); please note that some of the required kernel mods have not
531	  yet been committed
532
5332004-07-17 - v0.2.4 (beginning of 0.2.x stable releases)
534	* fixed some accounting cases where Accounting-Start was sent when
535	  IEEE 802.1X port was being deauthorized
536
5372004-06-20 - v0.2.3
538	* modified RADIUS client to re-connect the socket in case of certain
539	  error codes that are generated when a network interface state is
540	  changes (e.g., when IP address changes or the interface is set UP)
541	* fixed couple of cases where EAPOL state for a station was freed
542	  twice causing a segfault for hostapd
543	* fixed couple of bugs in processing WPA deauthentication (freed data
544	  was used)
545
5462004-05-31 - v0.2.2
547	* fixed WPA/WPA2 group rekeying to use key index correctly (GN/GM)
548	* fixed group rekeying to send zero TSC in EAPOL-Key messages to fix
549	  cases where STAs dropped multicast frames as replay attacks
550	* added support for copying RADIUS Attribute 'Class' from
551	  authentication messages into accounting messages
552	* send canned EAP failure if RADIUS server sends Access-Reject without
553	  EAP message (previously, Supplicant was not notified in this case)
554	* fixed mixed WPA-PSK and WPA-EAP mode to work with WPA-PSK (i.e., do
555	  not start EAPOL state machines if the STA selected to use WPA-PSK)
556
5572004-05-06 - v0.2.1
558	* added WPA and IEEE 802.11i/RSN (WPA2) Authenticator functionality
559	  - based on IEEE 802.11i/D10.0 but modified to interoperate with WPA
560	    (i.e., IEEE 802.11i/D3.0)
561	  - supports WPA-only, RSN-only, and mixed WPA/RSN mode
562	  - both WPA-PSK and WPA-RADIUS/EAP are supported
563	  - PMKSA caching and pre-authentication
564	  - new hostapd.conf variables: wpa, wpa_psk, wpa_passphrase,
565	    wpa_key_mgmt, wpa_pairwise, wpa_group_rekey, wpa_gmk_rekey,
566	    rsn_preauth, rsn_preauth_interfaces
567	* fixed interim accounting to remove any pending accounting messages
568	  to the STA before sending a new one
569
5702004-02-15 - v0.2.0
571	* added support for Acct-Interim-Interval:
572	  - draft-ietf-radius-acct-interim-01.txt
573	  - use Acct-Interim-Interval attribute from Access-Accept if local
574	    'radius_acct_interim_interval' is not set
575	  - allow different update intervals for each STA
576	* fixed event loop to call signal handlers only after returning from
577	  the real signal handler
578	* reset sta->timeout_next after successful association to make sure
579	  that the previously registered inactivity timer will not remove the
580	  STA immediately (e.g., if STA deauthenticates and re-associates
581	  before the timer is triggered).
582	* added new hostapd.conf variable, nas_identifier, that can be used to
583	  add an optional RADIUS Attribute, NAS-Identifier, into authentication
584	  and accounting messages
585	* added support for Accounting-On and Accounting-Off messages
586	* fixed accounting session handling to send Accounting-Start only once
587	  per session and not to send Accounting-Stop if the session was not
588	  initialized properly
589	* fixed Accounting-Stop statistics in cases where the message was
590	  previously sent after the kernel entry for the STA (and/or IEEE
591	  802.1X data) was removed
592
593
