      1 ChangeLog for wpa_supplicant
      2 
      3 2010-01-12 - 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 	* changed driver_wext to disconnect at init/deinit to clear state
      8 	* added explicit disconnect on 4-way handshake failures
      9 	* added WPS workarounds for known interoperability issues with broken,
     10 	  deployed implementation
     11 	* update IEEE 802.11w implementation to match with the published
     12 	  standard
     13 	* do not send WPS M8 message when learning current AP configuration as
     14 	  an external Registrar
     15 	* added a workaround for race condition between receive EAPOL frames
     16 	  and association events
     17 	* fixed compilation with newer GnuTLS versions
     18 	* fixed PKCS#12 use with OpenSSL 1.0.0
     19 
     20 2009-03-23 - v0.6.9
     21 	* driver_ndis: add PAE group address to the multicast address list to
     22 	  fix wired IEEE 802.1X authentication
     23 	* fixed IEEE 802.11r key derivation function to match with the standard
     24 	  (note: this breaks interoperability with previous version) [Bug 303]
     25 
     26 2009-02-15 - v0.6.8
     27 	* increased wpa_cli ping interval to 5 seconds and made this
     28 	  configurable with a new command line options (-G<seconds>)
     29 	* fixed scan buffer processing with WEXT to handle up to 65535
     30 	  byte result buffer (previously, limited to 32768 bytes)
     31 
     32 2009-01-06 - v0.6.7
     33 	* added support for Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)
     34 	  (wpa_supplicant can now be configured to act as a WPS Enrollee to
     35 	  enroll credentials for a network using PIN and PBC methods; in
     36 	  addition, wpa_supplicant can act as a wireless WPS Registrar to
     37 	  configure an AP); WPS support can be enabled by adding CONFIG_WPS=y
     38 	  into .config and setting the runtime configuration variables in
     39 	  wpa_supplicant.conf (see WPS section in the example configuration
     40 	  file); new wpa_cli commands wps_pin, wps_pbc, and wps_reg are used to
     41 	  manage WPS negotiation; see README-WPS for more details
     42 	* added support for EAP-AKA' (draft-arkko-eap-aka-kdf)
     43 	* added support for using driver_test over UDP socket
     44 	* fixed PEAPv0 Cryptobinding interoperability issue with Windows Server
     45 	  2008 NPS; optional cryptobinding is now enabled (again) by default
     46 	* fixed PSK editing in wpa_gui
     47 	* changed EAP-GPSK to use the IANA assigned EAP method type 51
     48 	* added a Windows installer that includes WinPcap and all the needed
     49 	  DLLs; in addition, it set up the registry automatically so that user
     50 	  will only need start wpa_gui to get prompted to start the wpasvc
     51 	  servide and add a new interface if needed through wpa_gui dialog
     52 	* updated management frame protection to use IEEE 802.11w/D7.0
     53 
     54 2008-11-23 - v0.6.6
     55 	* added Milenage SIM/USIM emulator for EAP-SIM/EAP-AKA
     56 	  (can be used to simulate test SIM/USIM card with a known private key;
     57 	  enable with CONFIG_SIM_SIMULATOR=y/CONFIG_USIM_SIMULATOR=y in .config
     58 	  and password="Ki:OPc"/password="Ki:OPc:SQN" in network configuration)
     59 	* added a new network configuration option, wpa_ptk_rekey, that can be
     60 	  used to enforce frequent PTK rekeying, e.g., to mitigate some attacks
     61 	  against TKIP deficiencies
     62 	* added an optional mitigation mechanism for certain attacks against
     63 	  TKIP by delaying Michael MIC error reports by a random amount of time
     64 	  between 0 and 60 seconds; this can be enabled with a build option
     65 	  CONFIG_DELAYED_MIC_ERROR_REPORT=y in .config
     66 	* fixed EAP-AKA to use RES Length field in AT_RES as length in bits,
     67 	  not bytes
     68 	* updated OpenSSL code for EAP-FAST to use an updated version of the
     69 	  session ticket overriding API that was included into the upstream
     70 	  OpenSSL 0.9.9 tree on 2008-11-15 (no additional OpenSSL patch is
     71 	  needed with that version anymore)
     72 	* updated userspace MLME instructions to match with the current Linux
     73 	  mac80211 implementation; please also note that this can only be used
     74 	  with driver_nl80211.c (the old code from driver_wext.c was removed)
     75 	* added support (Linux only) for RoboSwitch chipsets (often found in
     76 	  consumer grade routers); driver interface 'roboswitch'
     77 	* fixed canceling of PMKSA caching when using drivers that generate
     78 	  RSN IE and refuse to drop PMKIDs that wpa_supplicant does not know
     79 	  about
     80 
     81 2008-11-01 - v0.6.5
     82 	* added support for SHA-256 as X.509 certificate digest when using the
     83 	  internal X.509/TLSv1 implementation
     84 	* updated management frame protection to use IEEE 802.11w/D6.0
     85 	* added support for using SHA256-based stronger key derivation for WPA2
     86 	  (IEEE 802.11w)
     87 	* fixed FT (IEEE 802.11r) authentication after a failed association to
     88 	  use correct FTIE
     89 	* added support for configuring Phase 2 (inner/tunneled) authentication
     90 	  method with wpa_gui-qt4
     91 
     92 2008-08-10 - v0.6.4
     93 	* added support for EAP Sequences in EAP-FAST Phase 2
     94 	* added support for using TNC with EAP-FAST
     95 	* added driver_ps3 for the PS3 Linux wireless driver
     96 	* added support for optional cryptobinding with PEAPv0
     97 	* fixed the OpenSSL patches (0.9.8g and 0.9.9) for EAP-FAST to
     98 	  allow fallback to full handshake if server rejects PAC-Opaque
     99 	* added fragmentation support for EAP-TNC
    100 	* added support for parsing PKCS #8 formatted private keys into the
    101 	  internal TLS implementation (both PKCS #1 RSA key and PKCS #8
    102 	  encapsulated RSA key can now be used)
    103 	* added option of using faster, but larger, routines in the internal
    104 	  LibTomMath (for internal TLS implementation) to speed up DH and RSA
    105 	  calculations (CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH_FAST=y)
    106 	* fixed race condition between disassociation event and group key
    107 	  handshake to avoid getting stuck in incorrect state [Bug 261]
    108 	* fixed opportunistic key caching (proactive_key_caching)
    109 
    110 2008-02-22 - v0.6.3
    111 	* removed 'nai' and 'eappsk' network configuration variables that were
    112 	  previously used for configuring user identity and key for EAP-PSK,
    113 	  EAP-PAX, EAP-SAKE, and EAP-GPSK. 'identity' field is now used as the
    114 	  replacement for 'nai' (if old configuration used a separate
    115 	  'identity' value, that would now be configured as
    116 	  'anonymous_identity'). 'password' field is now used as the
    117 	  replacement for 'eappsk' (it can also be set using hexstring to
    118 	  present random binary data)
    119 	* removed '-w' command line parameter (wait for interface to be added,
    120 	  if needed); cleaner way of handling this functionality is to use an
    121 	  external mechanism (e.g., hotplug scripts) that start wpa_supplicant
    122 	  when an interface is added
    123 	* updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D9.0
    124 	* added ctrl_iface monitor event (CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-RESULTS) for
    125 	  indicating when new scan results become available
    126 	* added new ctrl_iface command, BSS, to allow scan results to be
    127 	  fetched without hitting the message size limits (this command
    128 	  can be used to iterate through the scan results one BSS at the time)
    129 	* fixed EAP-SIM not to include AT_NONCE_MT and AT_SELECTED_VERSION
    130 	  attributes in EAP-SIM Start/Response when using fast reauthentication
    131 	* fixed EAPOL not to end up in infinite loop when processing dynamic
    132 	  WEP keys with IEEE 802.1X
    133 	* fixed problems in getting NDIS events from WMI on Windows 2000
    134 
    135 2008-01-01 - v0.6.2
    136 	* added support for Makefile builds to include debug-log-to-a-file
    137 	  functionality (CONFIG_DEBUG_FILE=y and -f<path> on command line)
    138 	* fixed EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA message parser to validate attribute
    139 	  lengths properly to avoid potential crash caused by invalid messages
    140 	* added data structure for storing allocated buffers (struct wpabuf);
    141 	  this does not affect wpa_supplicant usage, but many of the APIs
    142 	  changed and various interfaces (e.g., EAP) is not compatible with old
    143 	  versions
    144 	* added support for protecting EAP-AKA/Identity messages with
    145 	  AT_CHECKCODE (optional feature in RFC 4187)
    146 	* added support for protected result indication with AT_RESULT_IND for
    147 	  EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA (phase1="result_ind=1")
    148 	* added driver_wext workaround for race condition between scanning and
    149 	  association with drivers that take very long time to scan all
    150 	  channels (e.g., madwifi with dual-band cards); wpa_supplicant is now
    151 	  using a longer hardcoded timeout for the scan if the driver supports
    152 	  notifications for scan completion (SIOCGIWSCAN event); this helps,
    153 	  e.g., in cases where wpa_supplicant and madwifi driver ended up in
    154 	  loop where the driver did not even try to associate
    155 	* stop EAPOL timer tick when no timers are in use in order to reduce
    156 	  power consumption (no need to wake up the process once per second)
    157 	  [Bug 237]
    158 	* added support for privilege separation (run only minimal part of
    159 	  wpa_supplicant functionality as root and rest as unprivileged,
    160 	  non-root process); see 'Privilege separation' in README for details;
    161 	  this is disabled by default and can be enabled with CONFIG_PRIVSEP=y
    162 	  in .config
    163 	* changed scan results data structure to include all information
    164 	  elements to make it easier to support new IEs; old get_scan_result()
    165 	  driver_ops is still supported for backwards compatibility (results
    166 	  are converted internally to the new format), but all drivers should
    167 	  start using the new get_scan_results2() to make them more likely to
    168 	  work with new features
    169 	* Qt4 version of wpa_gui (wpa_gui-qt4 subdirectory) is now native Qt4
    170 	  application, i.e., it does not require Qt3Support anymore; Windows
    171 	  binary of wpa_gui.exe is now from this directory and only requires
    172 	  QtCore4.dll and QtGui4.dll libraries
    173 	* updated Windows binary build to use Qt 4.3.3 and made Qt DLLs
    174 	  available as a separate package to make wpa_gui installation easier:
    175 	  http://w1.fi/wpa_supplicant/qt4/wpa_gui-qt433-windows-dll.zip
    176 	* added support for EAP-IKEv2 (draft-tschofenig-eap-ikev2-15.txt);
    177 	  only shared key/password authentication is supported in this version
    178 
    179 2007-11-24 - v0.6.1
    180 	* added support for configuring password as NtPasswordHash
    181 	  (16-byte MD4 hash of password) in hash:<32 hex digits> format
    182 	* added support for fallback from abbreviated TLS handshake to
    183 	  full handshake when using EAP-FAST (e.g., due to an expired
    184 	  PAC-Opaque)
    185 	* updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
    186 	  draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-07.txt)
    187 	* added support for drivers that take care of RSN 4-way handshake
    188 	  internally (WPA_DRIVER_FLAGS_4WAY_HANDSHAKE in get_capa flags and
    189 	  WPA_ALG_PMK in set_key)
    190 	* added an experimental port for Mac OS X (CONFIG_DRIVER_OSX=y in
    191 	  .config); this version supports only ap_scan=2 mode and allow the
    192 	  driver to take care of the 4-way handshake
    193 	* fixed a buffer overflow in parsing TSF from scan results when using
    194 	  driver_wext.c with a driver that includes the TSF (e.g., iwl4965)
    195 	  [Bug 232]
    196 	* updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D8.0
    197 	* fixed an integer overflow issue in the ASN.1 parser used by the
    198 	  (experimental) internal TLS implementation to avoid a potential
    199 	  buffer read overflow
    200 	* fixed a race condition with -W option (wait for a control interface
    201 	  monitor before starting) that could have caused the first messages to
    202 	  be lost
    203 	* added support for processing TNCC-TNCS-Messages to report
    204 	  recommendation (allow/none/isolate) when using TNC [Bug 243]
    205 
    206 2007-05-28 - v0.6.0
    207 	* added network configuration parameter 'frequency' for setting
    208 	  initial channel for IBSS (adhoc) networks
    209 	* added experimental IEEE 802.11r/D6.0 support
    210 	* updated EAP-SAKE to RFC 4763 and the IANA-allocated EAP type 48
    211 	* updated EAP-PSK to use the IANA-allocated EAP type 47
    212 	* fixed EAP-PAX key derivation
    213 	* fixed EAP-PSK bit ordering of the Flags field
    214 	* fixed EAP-PEAP/TTLS/FAST to use the correct EAP identifier in
    215 	  tunnelled identity request (previously, the identifier from the outer
    216 	  method was used, not the tunnelled identifier which could be
    217 	  different)
    218 	* added support for fragmentation of outer TLS packets during Phase 2
    219 	  of EAP-PEAP/TTLS/FAST
    220 	* fixed EAP-TTLS AVP parser processing for too short AVP lengths
    221 	* added support for EAP-FAST authentication with inner methods that
    222 	  generate MSK (e.g., EAP-MSCHAPv2 that was previously only supported
    223 	  for PAC provisioning)
    224 	* added support for authenticated EAP-FAST provisioning
    225 	* added support for configuring maximum number of EAP-FAST PACs to
    226 	  store in a PAC list (fast_max_pac_list_len=<max> in phase1 string)
    227 	* added support for storing EAP-FAST PACs in binary format
    228 	  (fast_pac_format=binary in phase1 string)
    229 	* fixed dbus ctrl_iface to validate message interface before
    230 	  dispatching to avoid a possible segfault [Bug 190]
    231 	* fixed PeerKey key derivation to use the correct PRF label
    232 	* updated Windows binary build to link against OpenSSL 0.9.8d and
    233 	  added support for EAP-FAST
    234 	* updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
    235 	  draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-04.txt)
    236 	* fixed EAP-AKA Notification processing to allow Notification to be
    237 	  processed after AKA Challenge response has been sent
    238 	* updated to use IEEE 802.11w/D2.0 for management frame protection
    239 	  (still experimental)
    240 	* fixed EAP-TTLS implementation not to crash on use of freed memory
    241 	  if TLS library initialization fails
    242 	* added support for EAP-TNC (Trusted Network Connect)
    243 	  (this version implements the EAP-TNC method and EAP-TTLS changes
    244 	  needed to run two methods in sequence (IF-T) and the IF-IMC and
    245 	  IF-TNCCS interfaces from TNCC)
    246 
    247 2006-11-24 - v0.5.6
    248 	* added experimental, integrated TLSv1 client implementation with the
    249 	  needed X.509/ASN.1/RSA/bignum processing (this can be enabled by
    250 	  setting CONFIG_TLS=internal and CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH=y in
    251 	  .config); this can be useful, e.g., if the target system does not
    252 	  have a suitable TLS library and a minimal code size is required
    253 	  (total size of this internal TLS/crypto code is bit under 50 kB on
    254 	  x86 and the crypto code is shared by rest of the supplicant so some
    255 	  of it was already required; TLSv1/X.509/ASN.1/RSA added about 25 kB)
    256 	* removed STAKey handshake since PeerKey handshake has replaced it in
    257 	  IEEE 802.11ma and there are no known deployments of STAKey
    258 	* updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
    259 	  draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-01.txt)
    260 	* added preliminary implementation of IEEE 802.11w/D1.0 (management
    261 	  frame protection)
    262 	  (Note: this requires driver support to work properly.)
    263 	  (Note2: IEEE 802.11w is an unapproved draft and subject to change.)
    264 	* fixed Windows named pipes ctrl_iface to not stop listening for
    265 	  commands if client program opens a named pipe and closes it
    266 	  immediately without sending a command
    267 	* fixed USIM PIN status determination for the case that PIN is not
    268 	  needed (this allows EAP-AKA to be used with USIM cards that do not
    269 	  use PIN)
    270 	* added support for reading 3G USIM AID from EF_DIR to allow EAP-AKA to
    271 	  be used with cards that do not support file selection based on
    272 	  partial AID
    273 	* added support for matching the subjectAltName of the authentication
    274 	  server certificate against multiple name components (e.g.,
    275 	  altsubject_match="DNS:server.example.com;DNS:server2.example.com")
    276 	* fixed EAP-SIM/AKA key derivation for re-authentication case (only
    277 	  affects IEEE 802.1X with dynamic WEP keys)
    278 	* changed ctrl_iface network configuration 'get' operations to not
    279 	  return password/key material; if these fields are requested, "*"
    280 	  will be returned if the password/key is set, but the value of the
    281 	  parameter is not exposed
    282 
    283 2006-08-27 - v0.5.5
    284 	* added support for building Windows version with UNICODE defined
    285 	  (wide-char functions)
    286 	* driver_ndis: fixed static WEP configuration to avoid race condition
    287 	  issues with some NDIS drivers between association and setting WEP
    288 	  keys
    289 	* driver_ndis: added validation for IELength value in scan results to
    290 	  avoid crashes when using buggy NDIS drivers [Bug 165]
    291 	* fixed Release|Win32 target in the Visual Studio project files
    292 	  (previously, only Debug|Win32 target was set properly)
    293 	* changed control interface API call wpa_ctrl_pending() to allow it to
    294 	  return -1 on error (e.g., connection lost); control interface clients
    295 	  will need to make sure that they verify that the value is indeed >0
    296 	  when determining whether there are pending messages
    297 	* added an alternative control interface backend for Windows targets:
    298 	  Named Pipe (CONFIG_CTRL_IFACE=named_pipe); this is now the default
    299 	  control interface mechanism for Windows builds (previously, UDP to
    300 	  localhost was used)
    301 	* changed ctrl_interface configuration for UNIX domain sockets:
    302 	  - deprecated ctrl_interface_group variable (it may be removed in
    303 	    future versions)
    304 	  - allow both directory and group be configured with ctrl_interface
    305 	    in following format: DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=wheel
    306 	  - ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant is still supported for the
    307 	    case when group is not changed
    308 	* added support for controlling more than one interface per process in
    309 	  Windows version
    310 	* added a workaround for a case where the AP is using unknown address
    311 	  (e.g., MAC address of the wired interface) as the source address for
    312 	  EAPOL-Key frames; previously, that source address was used as the
    313 	  destination for EAPOL-Key frames and in key derivation; now, BSSID is
    314 	  used even if the source address does not match with it
    315 	  (this resolves an interoperability issue with Thomson SpeedTouch 580)
    316 	* added a workaround for UDP-based control interface (which was used in
    317 	  Windows builds before this release) to prevent packets with forged
    318 	  addresses from being accepted as local control requests
    319 	* removed ndis_events.cpp and possibility of using external
    320 	  ndis_events.exe; C version (ndis_events.c) is fully functional and
    321 	  there is no desire to maintain two separate versions of this
    322 	  implementation
    323 	* ndis_events: Changed NDIS event notification design to use WMI to
    324 	  learn the adapter description through Win32_PnPEntity class; this
    325 	  should fix some cases where the adapter name was not recognized
    326 	  correctly (e.g., with some USB WLAN adapters, e.g., Ralink RT2500
    327 	  USB) [Bug 113]
    328 	* fixed selection of the first network in ap_scan=2 mode; previously,
    329 	  wpa_supplicant could get stuck in SCANNING state when only the first
    330 	  network for enabled (e.g., after 'wpa_cli select_network 0')
    331 	* winsvc: added support for configuring ctrl_interface parameters in
    332 	  registry (ctrl_interface string value in
    333 	  HKLM\SOFTWARE\wpa_supplicant\interfaces\0000 key); this new value is
    334 	  required to enable control interface (previously, this was hardcoded
    335 	  to be enabled)
    336 	* allow wpa_gui subdirectory to be built with both Qt3 and Qt4
    337 	* converted wpa_gui-qt4 subdirectory to use Qt4 specific project format
    338 
    339 2006-06-20 - v0.5.4
    340 	* fixed build with CONFIG_STAKEY=y [Bug 143]
    341 	* added support for doing MLME (IEEE 802.11 management frame
    342 	  processing) in wpa_supplicant when using Devicescape IEEE 802.11
    343 	  stack (wireless-dev.git tree)
    344 	* added a new network block configuration option, fragment_size, to
    345 	  configure the maximum EAP fragment size
    346 	* driver_ndis: Disable WZC automatically for the selected interface to
    347 	  avoid conflicts with two programs trying to control the radio; WZC
    348 	  will be re-enabled (if it was enabled originally) when wpa_supplicant
    349 	  is terminated
    350 	* added an experimental TLSv1 client implementation
    351 	  (CONFIG_TLS=internal) that can be used instead of an external TLS
    352 	  library, e.g., to reduce total size requirement on systems that do
    353 	  not include any TLS library by default (this is not yet complete;
    354 	  basic functionality is there, but certificate validation is not yet
    355 	  included)
    356 	* added PeerKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e
    357 	  direct link setup (DLS) to replace STAKey handshake
    358 	* fixed WPA PSK update through ctrl_iface for the case where the old
    359 	  PSK was derived from an ASCII passphrase and the new PSK is set as
    360 	  a raw PSK (hex string)
    361 	* added new configuration option for identifying which network block
    362 	  was used (id_str in wpa_supplicant.conf; included on
    363 	  WPA_EVENT_CONNECT monitor event and as WPA_ID_STR environmental
    364 	  variable in wpa_cli action scripts; in addition WPA_ID variable is
    365 	  set to the current unique identifier that wpa_supplicant assigned
    366 	  automatically for the network and that can be used with
    367 	  GET_NETWORK/SET_NETWORK ctrl_iface commands)
    368 	* wpa_cli action script is now called only when the connect/disconnect
    369 	  status changes or when associating with a different network
    370 	* fixed configuration parser not to remove CCMP from group cipher list
    371 	  if WPA-None (adhoc) is used (pairwise=NONE in that case)
    372 	* fixed integrated NDIS events processing not to hang the process due
    373 	  to a missed change in eloop_win.c API in v0.5.3 [Bug 155]
    374 	* added support for EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK,
    375 	  draft-clancy-emu-eap-shared-secret-00.txt)
    376 	* added Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 solution and project files for
    377 	  build wpa_supplicant for Windows (see vs2005 subdirectory)
    378 	* eloop_win: fixed unregistration of Windows events
    379 	* l2_packet_winpcap: fixed a deadlock in deinitializing l2_packet
    380 	  at the end of RSN pre-authentication and added unregistration of
    381 	  a Windows event to avoid getting eloop_win stuck with an invalid
    382 	  handle
    383 	* driver_ndis: added support for selecting AP based on BSSID
    384 	* added new environmental variable for wpa_cli action scripts:
    385 	  WPA_CTRL_DIR is the current control interface directory
    386 	* driver_ndis: added support for using NDISUIO instead of WinPcap for
    387 	  OID set/query operations (CONFIG_USE_NDISUIO=y in .config); with new
    388 	  l2_packet_ndis (CONFIG_L2_PACKET=ndis), this can be used to build
    389 	  wpa_supplicant without requiring WinPcap; note that using NDISUIO
    390 	  requires that WZC is disabled (net stop wzcsvc) since NDISUIO allows
    391 	  only one application to open the device
    392 	* changed NDIS driver naming to only include device GUID, e.g.,
    393 	  {7EE3EFE5-C165-472F-986D-F6FBEDFE8C8D}, instead of including WinPcap
    394 	  specific \Device\NPF_ prefix before the GUID; the prefix is still
    395 	  allowed for backwards compatibility, but it is not required anymore
    396 	  when specifying the interface
    397 	* driver_ndis: re-initialize driver interface is the adapter is removed
    398 	  and re-inserted [Bug 159]
    399 	* driver_madwifi: fixed TKIP and CCMP sequence number configuration on
    400 	  big endian hosts [Bug 146]
    401 
    402 2006-04-27 - v0.5.3
    403 	* fixed EAP-GTC response to include correct user identity when run as
    404 	  phase 2 method of EAP-FAST (i.e., EAP-FAST did not work in v0.5.2)
    405 	* driver_ndis: Fixed encryption mode configuration for unencrypted
    406 	  networks (some NDIS drivers ignored this, but others, e.g., Broadcom,
    407 	  refused to associate with open networks) [Bug 106]
    408 	* driver_ndis: use BSSID OID polling to detect when IBSS network is
    409 	  formed even when ndis_events code is included since some NDIS drivers
    410 	  do not generate media connect events in IBSS mode
    411 	* config_winreg: allow global ctrl_interface parameter to be configured
    412 	  in Windows registry
    413 	* config_winreg: added support for saving configuration data into
    414 	  Windows registry
    415 	* added support for controlling network device operational state
    416 	  (dormant/up) for Linux 2.6.17 to improve DHCP processing (see
    417 	  http://www.flamewarmaster.de/software/dhcpclient/ for a DHCP client
    418 	  that can use this information)
    419 	* driver_wext: added support for WE-21 change to SSID configuration
    420 	* driver_wext: fixed privacy configuration for static WEP keys mode
    421 	  [Bug 140]
    422 	* added an optional driver_ops callback for MLME-SETPROTECTION.request
    423 	  primitive
    424 	* added support for EAP-SAKE (no EAP method number allocated yet, so
    425 	  this is using the same experimental type 255 as EAP-PSK)
    426 	* added support for dynamically loading EAP methods (.so files) instead
    427 	  of requiring them to be statically linked in; this is disabled by
    428 	  default (see CONFIG_DYNAMIC_EAP_METHODS in defconfig for information
    429 	  on how to use this)
    430 
    431 2006-03-19 - v0.5.2
    432 	* do not try to use USIM APDUs when initializing PC/SC for SIM card
    433 	  access for a network that has not enabled EAP-AKA
    434 	* fixed EAP phase 2 Nak for EAP-{PEAP,TTLS,FAST} (this was broken in
    435 	  v0.5.1 due to the new support for expanded EAP types)
    436 	* added support for generating EAP Expanded Nak
    437 	* try to fetch scan results once before requesting new scan when
    438 	  starting up in ap_scan=1 mode (this can speed up initial association
    439 	  a lot with, e.g., madwifi-ng driver)
    440 	* added support for receiving EAPOL frames from a Linux bridge
    441 	  interface (-bbr0 on command line)
    442 	* fixed EAPOL re-authentication for sessions that used PMKSA caching
    443 	* changed EAP method registration to use a dynamic list of methods
    444 	  instead of a static list generated at build time
    445 	* fixed PMKSA cache deinitialization not to use freed memory when
    446 	  removing PMKSA entries
    447 	* fixed a memory leak in EAP-TTLS re-authentication
    448 	* reject WPA/WPA2 message 3/4 if it does not include any valid
    449 	  WPA/RSN IE
    450 	* driver_wext: added fallback to use SIOCSIWENCODE for setting auth_alg
    451 	  if the driver does not support SIOCSIWAUTH
    452 
    453 2006-01-29 - v0.5.1
    454 	* driver_test: added better support for multiple APs and STAs by using
    455 	  a directory with sockets that include MAC address for each device in
    456 	  the name (driver_param=test_dir=/tmp/test)
    457 	* added support for EAP expanded type (vendor specific EAP methods)
    458 	* added AP_SCAN command into ctrl_iface so that ap_scan configuration
    459 	  option can be changed if needed
    460 	* wpa_cli/wpa_gui: skip non-socket files in control directory when
    461 	  using UNIX domain sockets; this avoids selecting an incorrect
    462 	  interface (e.g., a PID file could be in this directory, even though
    463 	  use of this directory for something else than socket files is not
    464 	  recommended)
    465 	* fixed TLS library deinitialization after RSN pre-authentication not
    466 	  to disable TLS library for normal authentication
    467 	* driver_wext: Remove null-termination from SSID length if the driver
    468 	  used it; some Linux drivers do this and they were causing problems in
    469 	  wpa_supplicant not finding matching configuration block. This change
    470 	  would break a case where the SSID actually ends in '\0', but that is
    471 	  not likely to happen in real use.
    472 	* fixed PMKSA cache processing not to trigger deauthentication if the
    473 	  current PMKSA cache entry is replaced with a valid new entry
    474 	* fixed PC/SC initialization for ap_scan != 1 modes (this fixes
    475 	  EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA with real SIM/USIM card when using ap_scan=0 or
    476 	  ap_scan=2)
    477 
    478 2005-12-18 - v0.5.0 (beginning of 0.5.x development releases)
    479 	* added experimental STAKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e
    480 	  direct link setup (DLS); note: this is disabled by default in both
    481 	  build and runtime configuration (can be enabled with CONFIG_STAKEY=y
    482 	  and stakey=1)
    483 	* fixed EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA pseudonym and fast re-authentication to
    484 	  decrypt AT_ENCR_DATA attributes correctly
    485 	* fixed EAP-AKA to allow resynchronization within the same session
    486 	* made code closer to ANSI C89 standard to make it easier to port to
    487 	  other C libraries and compilers
    488 	* started moving operating system or C library specific functions into
    489 	  wrapper functions defined in os.h and implemented in os_*.c to make
    490 	  code more portable
    491 	* wpa_supplicant can now be built with Microsoft Visual C++
    492 	  (e.g., with the freely available Toolkit 2003 version or Visual
    493 	  C++ 2005 Express Edition and Platform SDK); see nmake.mak for an
    494 	  example makefile for nmake
    495 	* added support for using Windows registry for command line parameters
    496 	  (CONFIG_MAIN=main_winsvc) and configuration data
    497 	  (CONFIG_BACKEND=winreg); see win_example.reg for an example registry
    498 	  contents; this version can be run both as a Windows service and as a
    499 	  normal application; 'wpasvc.exe app' to start as applicant,
    500 	  'wpasvc.exe reg <full path to wpasvc.exe>' to register a service,
    501 	  'net start wpasvc' to start the service, 'wpasvc.exe unreg' to
    502 	  unregister a service
    503 	* made it possible to link ndis_events.exe functionality into
    504 	  wpa_supplicant.exe by defining CONFIG_NDIS_EVENTS_INTEGRATED
    505 	* added better support for multiple control interface backends
    506 	  (CONFIG_CTRL_IFACE option); currently, 'unix' and 'udp' are supported
    507 	* fixed PC/SC code to use correct length for GSM AUTH command buffer
    508 	  and to not use pioRecvPci with SCardTransmit() calls; these were not
    509 	  causing visible problems with pcsc-lite, but Windows Winscard.dll
    510 	  refused the previously used parameters; this fixes EAP-SIM and
    511 	  EAP-AKA authentication using SIM/USIM card under Windows
    512 	* added new event loop implementation for Windows using
    513 	  WaitForMultipleObject() instead of select() in order to allow waiting
    514 	  for non-socket objects; this can be selected with
    515 	  CONFIG_ELOOP=eloop_win in .config
    516 	* added support for selecting l2_packet implementation in .config
    517 	  (CONFIG_L2_PACKET; following options are available now: linux, pcap,
    518 	  winpcap, freebsd, none)
    519 	* added new l2_packet implementation for WinPcap
    520 	  (CONFIG_L2_PACKET=winpcap) that uses a separate receive thread to
    521 	  reduce latency in EAPOL receive processing from about 100 ms to about
    522 	  3 ms
    523 	* added support for EAP-FAST key derivation using other ciphers than
    524 	  RC4-128-SHA for authentication and AES128-SHA for provisioning
    525 	* added support for configuring CA certificate as DER file and as a
    526 	  configuration blob
    527 	* fixed private key configuration as configuration blob and added
    528 	  support for using PKCS#12 as a blob
    529 	* tls_gnutls: added support for using PKCS#12 files; added support for
    530 	  session resumption
    531 	* added support for loading trusted CA certificates from Windows
    532 	  certificate store: ca_cert="cert_store://<name>", where <name> is
    533 	  likely CA (Intermediate CA certificates) or ROOT (root certificates)
    534 	* added C version of ndis_events.cpp and made it possible to build this
    535 	  with MinGW so that CONFIG_NDIS_EVENTS_INTEGRATED can be used more
    536 	  easily on cross-compilation builds
    537 	* added wpasvc.exe into Windows binary release; this is an alternative
    538 	  version of wpa_supplicant.exe with configuration backend using
    539 	  Windows registry and with the entry point designed to run as a
    540 	  Windows service
    541 	* integrated ndis_events.exe functionality into wpa_supplicant.exe and
    542 	  wpasvc.exe and removed this additional tool from the Windows binary
    543 	  release since it is not needed anymore
    544 	* load winscard.dll functions dynamically when building with MinGW
    545 	  since MinGW does not yet include winscard library
    546 
    547 2005-11-20 - v0.4.7 (beginning of 0.4.x stable releases)
    548 	* l2_packet_pcap: fixed wired IEEE 802.1X authentication with libpcap
    549 	  and WinPcap to receive frames sent to PAE group address
    550 	* disable EAP state machine when IEEE 802.1X authentication is not used
    551 	  in order to get rid of bogus "EAP failed" messages
    552 	* fixed OpenSSL error reporting to go through all pending errors to
    553 	  avoid confusing reports of old errors being reported at later point
    554 	  during handshake
    555 	* fixed configuration file updating to not write empty variables
    556 	  (e.g., proto or key_mgmt) that the file parser would not accept
    557 	* fixed ADD_NETWORK ctrl_iface command to use the same default values
    558 	  for variables as empty network definitions read from config file
    559 	  would get
    560 	* fixed EAP state machine to not discard EAP-Failure messages in many
    561 	  cases (e.g., during TLS handshake)
    562 	* fixed a infinite loop in private key reading if the configured file
    563 	  cannot be parsed successfully
    564 	* driver_madwifi: added support for madwifi-ng
    565 	* wpa_gui: do not display password/PSK field contents
    566 	* wpa_gui: added CA certificate configuration
    567 	* driver_ndis: fixed scan request in ap_scan=2 mode not to change SSID
    568 	* driver_ndis: include Beacon IEs in AssocInfo in order to notice if
    569 	  the new AP is using different WPA/RSN IE
    570 	* use longer timeout for IEEE 802.11 association to avoid problems with
    571 	  drivers that may take more than five second to associate
    572 
    573 2005-10-27 - v0.4.6
    574 	* allow fallback to WPA, if mixed WPA+WPA2 networks have mismatch in
    575 	  RSN IE, but WPA IE would match with wpa_supplicant configuration
    576 	* added support for named configuration blobs in order to avoid having
    577 	  to use file system for external files (e.g., certificates);
    578 	  variables can be set to "blob://<blob name>" instead of file path to
    579 	  use a named blob; supported fields: pac_file, client_cert,
    580 	  private_key
    581 	* fixed RSN pre-authentication (it was broken in the clean up of WPA
    582 	  state machine interface in v0.4.5)
    583 	* driver_madwifi: set IEEE80211_KEY_GROUP flag for group keys to make
    584 	  sure the driver configures broadcast decryption correctly
    585 	* added ca_path (and ca_path2) configuration variables that can be used
    586 	  to configure OpenSSL CA path, e.g., /etc/ssl/certs, for using the
    587 	  system-wide trusted CA list
    588 	* added support for starting wpa_supplicant without a configuration
    589 	  file (-C argument must be used to set ctrl_interface parameter for
    590 	  this case; in addition, -p argument can be used to provide
    591 	  driver_param; these new arguments can also be used with a
    592 	  configuration to override the values from the configuration)
    593 	* added global control interface that can be optionally used for adding
    594 	  and removing network interfaces dynamically (-g command line argument
    595 	  for both wpa_supplicant and wpa_cli) without having to restart
    596 	  wpa_supplicant process
    597 	* wpa_gui:
    598 	  - try to save configuration whenever something is modified
    599 	  - added WEP key configuration
    600 	  - added possibility to edit the current network configuration
    601 	* driver_ndis: fixed driver polling not to increase frequency on each
    602 	  received EAPOL frame due to incorrectly cancelled timeout
    603 	* added simple configuration file examples (in examples subdirectory)
    604 	* fixed driver_wext.c to filter wireless events based on ifindex to
    605 	  avoid interfaces receiving events from other interfaces
    606 	* delay sending initial EAPOL-Start couple of seconds to speed up
    607 	  authentication for the most common case of Authenticator starting
    608 	  EAP authentication immediately after association
    609 
    610 2005-09-25 - v0.4.5
    611 	* added a workaround for clearing keys with ndiswrapper to allow
    612 	  roaming from WPA enabled AP to plaintext one
    613 	* added docbook documentation (doc/docbook) that can be used to
    614 	  generate, e.g., man pages
    615 	* l2_packet_linux: use socket type SOCK_DGRAM instead of SOCK_RAW for
    616 	  PF_PACKET in order to prepare for network devices that do not use
    617 	  Ethernet headers (e.g., network stack with native IEEE 802.11 frames)
    618 	* use receipt of EAPOL-Key frame as a lower layer success indication
    619 	  for EAP state machine to allow recovery from dropped EAP-Success
    620 	  frame
    621 	* cleaned up internal EAPOL frame processing by not including link
    622 	  layer (Ethernet) header during WPA and EAPOL/EAP processing; this
    623 	  header is added only when transmitted the frame; this makes it easier
    624 	  to use wpa_supplicant on link layers that use different header than
    625 	  Ethernet
    626 	* updated EAP-PSK to use draft 9 by default since this can now be
    627 	  tested with hostapd; removed support for draft 3, including
    628 	  server_nai configuration option from network blocks
    629 	* driver_wired: add PAE address to the multicast address list in order
    630 	  to be able to receive EAPOL frames with drivers that do not include
    631 	  these multicast addresses by default
    632 	* driver_wext: add support for WE-19
    633 	* added support for multiple configuration backends (CONFIG_BACKEND
    634 	  option); currently, only 'file' is supported (i.e., the format used
    635 	  in wpa_supplicant.conf)
    636 	* added support for updating configuration ('wpa_cli save_config');
    637 	  this is disabled by default and can be enabled with global
    638 	  update_config=1 variable in wpa_supplicant.conf; this allows wpa_cli
    639 	  and wpa_gui to store the configuration changes in a permanent store
    640 	* added GET_NETWORK ctrl_iface command
    641 	  (e.g., 'wpa_cli get_network 0 ssid')
    642 
    643 2005-08-21 - v0.4.4
    644 	* replaced OpenSSL patch for EAP-FAST support
    645 	  (openssl-tls-extensions.patch) with a more generic and correct
    646 	  patch (the new patch is not compatible with the previous one, so the
    647 	  OpenSSL library will need to be patched with the new patch in order
    648 	  to be able to build wpa_supplicant with EAP-FAST support)
    649 	* added support for using Windows certificate store (through CryptoAPI)
    650 	  for client certificate and private key operations (EAP-TLS)
    651 	  (see wpa_supplicant.conf for more information on how to configure
    652 	  this with private_key)
    653 	* ported wpa_gui to Windows
    654 	* added Qt4 version of wpa_gui (wpa_gui-qt4 directory); this can be
    655 	  built with the open source version of the Qt4 for Windows
    656 	* allow non-WPA modes (e.g., IEEE 802.1X with dynamic WEP) to be used
    657 	  with drivers that do not support WPA
    658 	* ndis_events: fixed Windows 2000 support
    659 	* added support for enabling/disabling networks from the list of all
    660 	  configured networks ('wpa_cli enable_network <network id>' and
    661 	  'wpa_cli disable_network <network id>')
    662 	* added support for adding and removing network from the current
    663 	  configuration ('wpa_cli add_network' and 'wpa_cli remove_network
    664 	  <network id>'); added networks are disabled by default and they can
    665 	  be enabled with enable_network command once the configuration is done
    666 	  for the new network; note: configuration file is not yet updated, so
    667 	  these new networks are lost when wpa_supplicant is restarted
    668 	* added support for setting network configuration parameters through
    669 	  the control interface, for example:
    670 	  wpa_cli set_network 0 ssid "\"my network\""
    671 	* fixed parsing of strings that include both " and # within double
    672 	  quoted area (e.g., "start"#end")
    673 	* added EAP workaround for PEAP session resumption: allow outer,
    674 	  i.e., not tunneled, EAP-Success to terminate session since; this can
    675 	  be disabled with eap_workaround=0
    676 	  (this was allowed for PEAPv1 before, but now it is also allowed for
    677 	  PEAPv0 since at least one RADIUS authentication server seems to be
    678 	  doing this for PEAPv0, too)
    679 	* wpa_gui: added preliminary support for adding new networks to the
    680 	  wpa_supplicant configuration (double click on the scan results to
    681 	  open network configuration)
    682 
    683 2005-06-26 - v0.4.3
    684 	* removed interface for external EAPOL/EAP supplicant (e.g.,
    685 	  Xsupplicant), (CONFIG_XSUPPLICANT_IFACE) since it is not required
    686 	  anymore and is unlikely to be used by anyone
    687 	* driver_ndis: fixed WinPcap 3.0 support
    688 	* fixed build with CONFIG_DNET_PCAP=y on Linux
    689 	* l2_packet: moved different implementations into separate files
    690 	  (l2_packet_*.c)
    691 
    692 2005-06-12 - v0.4.2
    693 	* driver_ipw: updated driver structures to match with ipw2200-1.0.4
    694 	  (note: ipw2100-1.1.0 is likely to require an update to work with
    695 	  this)
    696 	* added support for using ap_scan=2 mode with multiple network blocks;
    697 	  wpa_supplicant will go through the networks one by one until the
    698 	  driver reports a successful association; this uses the same order for
    699 	  networks as scan_ssid=1 scans, i.e., the priority field is ignored
    700 	  and the network block order in the file is used instead
    701 	* fixed a potential issue in RSN pre-authentication ending up using
    702 	  freed memory if pre-authentication times out
    703 	* added support for matching alternative subject name extensions of the
    704 	  authentication server certificate; new configuration variables
    705 	  altsubject_match and altsubject_match2
    706 	* driver_ndis: added support for IEEE 802.1X authentication with wired
    707 	  NDIS drivers
    708 	* added support for querying private key password (EAP-TLS) through the
    709 	  control interface (wpa_cli/wpa_gui) if one is not included in the
    710 	  configuration file
    711 	* driver_broadcom: fixed couple of memory leaks in scan result
    712 	  processing
    713 	* EAP-PAX is now registered as EAP type 46
    714 	* fixed EAP-PAX MAC calculation
    715 	* fixed EAP-PAX CK and ICK key derivation
    716 	* added support for using password with EAP-PAX (as an alternative to
    717 	  entering key with eappsk); SHA-1 hash of the password will be used as
    718 	  the key in this case
    719 	* added support for arbitrary driver interface parameters through the
    720 	  configuration file with a new driver_param field; this adds a new
    721 	  driver_ops function set_param()
    722 	* added possibility to override l2_packet module with driver interface
    723 	  API (new send_eapol handler); this can be used to implement driver
    724 	  specific TX/RX functions for EAPOL frames
    725 	* fixed ctrl_interface_group processing for the case where gid is
    726 	  entered as a number, not group name
    727 	* driver_test: added support for testing hostapd with wpa_supplicant
    728 	  by using test driver interface without any kernel drivers or network
    729 	  cards
    730 
    731 2005-05-22 - v0.4.1
    732 	* driver_madwifi: fixed WPA/WPA2 mode configuration to allow EAPOL
    733 	  packets to be encrypted; this was apparently broken by the changed
    734 	  ioctl order in v0.4.0
    735 	* driver_madwifi: added preliminary support for compiling against 'BSD'
    736 	  branch of madwifi CVS tree
    737 	* added support for EAP-MSCHAPv2 password retries within the same EAP
    738 	  authentication session
    739 	* added support for password changes with EAP-MSCHAPv2 (used when the
    740 	  password has expired)
    741 	* added support for reading additional certificates from PKCS#12 files
    742 	  and adding them to the certificate chain
    743 	* fixed association with IEEE 802.1X (no WPA) when dynamic WEP keys
    744 	  were used
    745 	* fixed a possible double free in EAP-TTLS fast-reauthentication when
    746 	  identity or password is entered through control interface
    747 	* display EAP Notification messages to user through control interface
    748 	  with "CTRL-EVENT-EAP-NOTIFICATION" prefix
    749 	* added GUI version of wpa_cli, wpa_gui; this is not build
    750 	  automatically with 'make'; use 'make wpa_gui' to build (this requires
    751 	  Qt development tools)
    752 	* added 'disconnect' command to control interface for setting
    753 	  wpa_supplicant in state where it will not associate before
    754 	  'reassociate' command has been used
    755 	* added support for selecting a network from the list of all configured
    756 	  networks ('wpa_cli select_network <network id>'; this disabled all
    757 	  other networks; to re-enable, 'wpa_cli select_network any')
    758 	* added support for getting scan results through control interface
    759 	* added EAP workaround for PEAPv1 session resumption: allow outer,
    760 	  i.e., not tunneled, EAP-Success to terminate session since; this can
    761 	  be disabled with eap_workaround=0
    762 
    763 2005-04-25 - v0.4.0 (beginning of 0.4.x development releases)
    764 	* added a new build time option, CONFIG_NO_STDOUT_DEBUG, that can be
    765 	  used to reduce the size of the wpa_supplicant considerably if
    766 	  debugging code is not needed
    767 	* fixed EAPOL-Key validation to drop packets with invalid Key Data
    768 	  Length; such frames could have crashed wpa_supplicant due to buffer
    769 	  overflow
    770 	* added support for wired authentication (IEEE 802.1X on wired
    771 	  Ethernet); driver interface 'wired'
    772 	* obsoleted set_wpa() handler in the driver interface API (it can be
    773 	  replaced by moving enable/disable functionality into init()/deinit())
    774 	  (calls to set_wpa() are still present for backwards compatibility,
    775 	  but they may be removed in the future)
    776 	* driver_madwifi: fixed association in plaintext mode
    777 	* modified the EAP workaround that accepts EAP-Success with incorrect
    778 	  Identifier to be even less strict about verification in order to
    779 	  interoperate with some authentication servers
    780 	* added support for sending TLS alerts
    781 	* added support for 'any' SSID wildcard; if ssid is not configured or
    782 	  is set to an empty string, any SSID will be accepted for non-WPA AP
    783 	* added support for asking PIN (for SIM) from frontends (e.g.,
    784 	  wpa_cli); if a PIN is needed, but not included in the configuration
    785 	  file, a control interface request is sent and EAP processing is
    786 	  delayed until the PIN is available
    787 	* added support for using external devices (e.g., a smartcard) for
    788 	  private key operations in EAP-TLS (CONFIG_SMARTCARD=y in .config);
    789 	  new wpa_supplicant.conf variables:
    790 	  - global: opensc_engine_path, pkcs11_engine_path, pkcs11_module_path
    791 	  - network: engine, engine_id, key_id
    792 	* added experimental support for EAP-PAX
    793 	* added monitor mode for wpa_cli (-a<path to a program to run>) that
    794 	  allows external commands (e.g., shell scripts) to be run based on
    795 	  wpa_supplicant events, e.g., when authentication has been completed
    796 	  and data connection is ready; other related wpa_cli arguments:
    797 	  -B (run in background), -P (write PID file); wpa_supplicant has a new
    798 	  command line argument (-W) that can be used to make it wait until a
    799 	  control interface command is received in order to avoid missing
    800 	  events
    801 	* added support for opportunistic WPA2 PMKSA key caching (disabled by
    802 	  default, can be enabled with proactive_key_caching=1)
    803 	* fixed RSN IE in 4-Way Handshake message 2/4 for the case where
    804 	  Authenticator rejects PMKSA caching attempt and the driver is not
    805 	  using assoc_info events
    806 	* added -P<pid file> argument for wpa_supplicant to write the current
    807 	  process id into a file
    808 
    809 2005-02-12 - v0.3.7 (beginning of 0.3.x stable releases)
    810 	* added new phase1 option parameter, include_tls_length=1, to force
    811 	  wpa_supplicant to add TLS Message Length field to all TLS messages
    812 	  even if the packet is not fragmented; this may be needed with some
    813 	  authentication servers
    814 	* fixed WPA/RSN IE verification in message 3 of 4-Way Handshake when
    815 	  using drivers that take care of AP selection (e.g., when using
    816 	  ap_scan=2)
    817 	* fixed reprocessing of pending request after ctrl_iface requests for
    818 	  identity/password/otp
    819 	* fixed ctrl_iface requests for identity/password/otp in Phase 2 of
    820 	  EAP-PEAP and EAP-TTLS
    821 	* all drivers using driver_wext: set interface up and select Managed
    822 	  mode when starting wpa_supplicant; set interface down when exiting
    823 	* renamed driver_ipw2100.c to driver_ipw.c since it now supports both
    824 	  ipw2100 and ipw2200; please note that this also changed the
    825 	  configuration variable in .config to CONFIG_DRIVER_IPW
    826 
    827 2005-01-24 - v0.3.6
    828 	* fixed a busy loop introduced in v0.3.5 for scan result processing
    829 	  when no matching AP is found
    830 
    831 2005-01-23 - v0.3.5
    832 	* added a workaround for an interoperability issue with a Cisco AP
    833 	  when using WPA2-PSK
    834 	* fixed non-WPA IEEE 802.1X to use the same authentication timeout as
    835 	  WPA with IEEE 802.1X (i.e., timeout 10 -> 70 sec to allow
    836 	  retransmission of dropped frames)
    837 	* fixed issues with 64-bit CPUs and SHA1 cleanup in previous version
    838 	  (e.g., segfault when processing EAPOL-Key frames)
    839 	* fixed EAP workaround and fast reauthentication configuration for
    840 	  RSN pre-authentication; previously these were disabled and
    841 	  pre-authentication would fail if the used authentication server
    842 	  requires EAP workarounds
    843 	* added support for blacklisting APs that fail or timeout
    844 	  authentication in ap_scan=1 mode so that all APs are tried in cases
    845 	  where the ones with strongest signal level are failing authentication
    846 	* fixed CA certificate loading after a failed EAP-TLS/PEAP/TTLS
    847 	  authentication attempt
    848 	* allow EAP-PEAP/TTLS fast reauthentication only if Phase 2 succeeded
    849 	  in the previous authentication (previously, only Phase 1 success was
    850 	  verified)
    851 
    852 2005-01-09 - v0.3.4
    853 	* added preliminary support for IBSS (ad-hoc) mode configuration
    854 	  (mode=1 in network block); this included a new key_mgmt mode
    855 	  WPA-NONE, i.e., TKIP or CCMP with a fixed key (based on psk) and no
    856 	  key management; see wpa_supplicant.conf for more details and an
    857 	  example on how to configure this (note: this is currently implemented
    858 	  only for driver_hostapd.c, but the changes should be trivial to add
    859 	  in associate() handler for other drivers, too (assuming the driver
    860 	  supports WPA-None)
    861 	* added preliminary port for native Windows (i.e., no cygwin) using
    862 	  mingw
    863 
    864 2005-01-02 - v0.3.3
    865 	* added optional support for GNU Readline and History Libraries for
    866 	  wpa_cli (CONFIG_READLINE)
    867 	* cleaned up EAP state machine <-> method interface and number of
    868 	  small problems with error case processing not terminating on
    869 	  EAP-Failure but waiting for timeout
    870 	* added couple of workarounds for interoperability issues with a
    871 	  Cisco AP when using WPA2
    872 	* added support for EAP-FAST (draft-cam-winget-eap-fast-00.txt);
    873 	  Note: This requires a patch for openssl to add support for TLS
    874 	  extensions and number of workarounds for operations without
    875 	  certificates. Proof of concept type of experimental patch is
    876 	  included in openssl-tls-extensions.patch.
    877 
    878 2004-12-19 - v0.3.2
    879 	* fixed private key loading for cases where passphrase is not set
    880 	* fixed Windows/cygwin L2 packet handler freeing; previous version
    881 	  could cause a segfault when RSN pre-authentication was completed
    882 	* added support for PMKSA caching with drivers that generate RSN IEs
    883 	  (e.g., NDIS); currently, this is only implemented in driver_ndis.c,
    884 	  but similar code can be easily added to driver_ndiswrapper.c once
    885 	  ndiswrapper gets full support for RSN PMKSA caching
    886 	* improved recovery from PMKID mismatches by requesting full EAP
    887 	  authentication in case of failed PMKSA caching attempt
    888 	* driver_ndis: added support for NDIS NdisMIncidateStatus() events
    889 	  (this requires that ndis_events is ran while wpa_supplicant is
    890 	  running)
    891 	* driver_ndis: use ADD_WEP/REMOVE_WEP when configuring WEP keys
    892 	* added support for driver interfaces to replace the interface name
    893 	  based on driver/OS specific mapping, e.g., in case of driver_ndis,
    894 	  this allows the beginning of the adapter description to be used as
    895 	  the interface name
    896 	* added support for CR+LF (Windows-style) line ends in configuration
    897 	  file
    898 	* driver_ndis: enable radio before starting scanning, disable radio
    899 	  when exiting
    900 	* modified association event handler to set portEnabled = FALSE before
    901 	  clearing port Valid in order to reset EAP state machine and avoid
    902 	  problems with new authentication getting ignored because of state
    903 	  machines ending up in AUTHENTICATED/SUCCESS state based on old
    904 	  information
    905 	* added support for driver events to add PMKID candidates in order to
    906 	  allow drivers to give priority to most likely roaming candidates
    907 	* driver_hostap: moved PrivacyInvoked configuration to associate()
    908 	  function so that this will not be set for plaintext connections
    909 	* added KEY_MGMT_802_1X_NO_WPA as a new key_mgmt type so that driver
    910 	  interface can distinguish plaintext and IEEE 802.1X (no WPA)
    911 	  authentication
    912 	* fixed static WEP key configuration to use broadcast/default type for
    913 	  all keys (previously, the default TX key was configured as pairwise/
    914 	  unicast key)
    915 	* driver_ndis: added legacy WPA capability detection for non-WPA2
    916 	  drivers
    917 	* added support for setting static WEP keys for IEEE 802.1X without
    918 	  dynamic WEP keying (eapol_flags=0)
    919 
    920 2004-12-12 - v0.3.1
    921 	* added support for reading PKCS#12 (PFX) files (as a replacement for
    922 	  PEM/DER) to get certificate and private key (CONFIG_PKCS12)
    923 	* fixed compilation with CONFIG_PCSC=y
    924 	* added new ap_scan mode, ap_scan=2, for drivers that take care of
    925 	  association, but need to be configured with security policy and SSID,
    926 	  e.g., ndiswrapper and NDIS driver; this mode should allow such
    927 	  drivers to work with hidden SSIDs and optimized roaming; when
    928 	  ap_scan=2 is used, only the first network block in the configuration
    929 	  file is used and this configuration should have explicit security
    930 	  policy (i.e., only one option in the lists) for key_mgmt, pairwise,
    931 	  group, proto variables
    932 	* added experimental port of wpa_supplicant for Windows
    933 	  - driver_ndis.c driver interface (NDIS OIDs)
    934 	  - currently, this requires cygwin and WinPcap
    935 	  - small utility, win_if_list, can be used to get interface name
    936 	* control interface can now be removed at build time; add
    937 	  CONFIG_CTRL_IFACE=y to .config to maintain old functionality
    938 	* optional Xsupplicant interface can now be removed at build time;
    939 	  (CONFIG_XSUPPLICANT_IFACE=y in .config to bring it back)
    940 	* added auth_alg to driver interface associate() parameters to make it
    941 	  easier for drivers to configure authentication algorithm as part of
    942 	  the association
    943 
    944 2004-12-05 - v0.3.0 (beginning of 0.3.x development releases)
    945 	* driver_broadcom: added new driver interface for Broadcom wl.o driver
    946 	  (a generic driver for Broadcom IEEE 802.11a/g cards)
    947 	* wpa_cli: fixed parsing of -p <path> command line argument
    948 	* PEAPv1: fixed tunneled EAP-Success reply handling to reply with TLS
    949 	  ACK, not tunneled EAP-Success (of which only the first byte was
    950 	  actually send due to a bug in previous code); this seems to
    951 	  interoperate with most RADIUS servers that implements PEAPv1
    952 	* PEAPv1: added support for terminating PEAP authentication on tunneled
    953 	  EAP-Success message; this can be configured by adding
    954 	  peap_outer_success=0 on phase1 parameters in wpa_supplicant.conf
    955 	  (some RADIUS servers require this whereas others require a tunneled
    956 	  reply
    957 	* PEAPv1: changed phase1 option peaplabel to use default to 0, i.e., to
    958 	  the old label for key derivation; previously, the default was 1,
    959 	  but it looks like most existing PEAPv1 implementations use the old
    960 	  label which is thus more suitable default option
    961 	* added support for EAP-PSK (draft-bersani-eap-psk-03.txt)
    962 	* fixed parsing of wep_tx_keyidx
    963 	* added support for configuring list of allowed Phase 2 EAP types
    964 	  (for both EAP-PEAP and EAP-TTLS) instead of only one type
    965 	* added support for configuring IEEE 802.11 authentication algorithm
    966 	  (auth_alg; mainly for using Shared Key authentication with static
    967 	  WEP keys)
    968 	* added support for EAP-AKA (with UMTS SIM)
    969 	* fixed couple of errors in PCSC handling that could have caused
    970 	  random-looking errors for EAP-SIM
    971 	* added support for EAP-SIM pseudonyms and fast re-authentication
    972 	* added support for EAP-TLS/PEAP/TTLS fast re-authentication (TLS
    973 	  session resumption)
    974 	* added support for EAP-SIM with two challanges
    975 	  (phase1="sim_min_num_chal=3" can be used to require three challenges)
    976 	* added support for configuring DH/DSA parameters for an ephemeral DH
    977 	  key exchange (EAP-TLS/PEAP/TTLS) using new configuration parameters
    978 	  dh_file and dh_file2 (phase 2); this adds support for using DSA keys
    979 	  and optional DH key exchange to achieve forward secracy with RSA keys
    980 	* added support for matching subject of the authentication server
    981 	  certificate with a substring when using EAP-TLS/PEAP/TTLS; new
    982 	  configuration variables subject_match and subject_match2
    983 	* changed SSID configuration in driver_wext.c (used by many driver
    984 	  interfaces) to use ssid_len+1 as the length for SSID since some Linux
    985 	  drivers expect this
    986 	* fixed couple of unaligned reads in scan result parsing to fix WPA
    987 	  connection on some platforms (e.g., ARM)
    988 	* added driver interface for Intel ipw2100 driver
    989 	* added support for LEAP with WPA
    990 	* added support for larger scan results report (old limit was 4 kB of
    991 	  data, i.e., about 35 or so APs) when using Linux wireless extensions
    992 	  v17 or newer
    993 	* fixed a bug in PMKSA cache processing: skip sending of EAPOL-Start
    994 	  only if there is a PMKSA cache entry for the current AP
    995 	* fixed error handling for case where reading of scan results fails:
    996 	  must schedule a new scan or wpa_supplicant will remain waiting
    997 	  forever
    998 	* changed debug output to remove shared password/key material by
    999 	  default; all key information can be included with -K command line
   1000 	  argument to match the previous behavior
   1001 	* added support for timestamping debug log messages (disabled by
   1002 	  default, can be enabled with -t command line argument)
   1003 	* set pairwise/group cipher suite for non-WPA IEEE 802.1X to WEP-104
   1004 	  if keys are not configured to be used; this fixes IEEE 802.1X mode
   1005 	  with drivers that use this information to configure whether Privacy
   1006 	  bit can be in Beacon frames (e.g., ndiswrapper)
   1007 	* avoid clearing driver keys if no keys have been configured since last
   1008 	  key clear request; this seems to improve reliability of group key
   1009 	  handshake for ndiswrapper & NDIS driver which seems to be suffering
   1010 	  of some kind of timing issue when the keys are cleared again after
   1011 	  association
   1012 	* changed driver interface API:
   1013 	  - WPA_SUPPLICANT_DRIVER_VERSION define can be used to determine which
   1014 	    version is being used (now, this is set to 2; previously, it was
   1015 	    not defined)
   1016 	  - pass pointer to private data structure to all calls
   1017 	  - the new API is not backwards compatible; all in-tree driver
   1018 	    interfaces has been converted to the new API
   1019 	* added support for controlling multiple interfaces (radios) per
   1020 	  wpa_supplicant process; each interface needs to be listed on the
   1021 	  command line (-c, -i, -D arguments) with -N as a separator
   1022 	  (-cwpa1.conf -iwlan0 -Dhostap -N -cwpa2.conf -iath0 -Dmadwifi)
   1023 	* added a workaround for EAP servers that incorrectly use same Id for
   1024 	  sequential EAP packets
   1025 	* changed libpcap/libdnet configuration to use .config variable,
   1026 	  CONFIG_DNET_PCAP, instead of requiring Makefile modification
   1027 	* improved downgrade attack detection in IE verification of msg 3/4:
   1028 	  verify both WPA and RSN IEs, if present, not only the selected one;
   1029 	  reject the AP if an RSN IE is found in msg 3/4, but not in Beacon or
   1030 	  Probe Response frame, and RSN is enabled in wpa_supplicant
   1031 	  configuration
   1032 	* fixed WPA msg 3/4 processing to allow Key Data field contain other
   1033 	  IEs than just one WPA IE
   1034 	* added support for FreeBSD and driver interface for the BSD net80211
   1035 	  layer (CONFIG_DRIVER_BSD=y in .config); please note that some of the
   1036 	  required kernel mods have not yet been committed
   1037 	* made EAP workarounds configurable; enabled by default, can be
   1038 	  disabled with network block option eap_workaround=0
   1039 
   1040 2004-07-17 - v0.2.4 (beginning of 0.2.x stable releases)
   1041 	* resolved couple of interoperability issues with EAP-PEAPv1 and
   1042 	  Phase 2 (inner EAP) fragment reassembly
   1043 	* driver_madwifi: fixed WEP key configuration for IEEE 802.1X when the
   1044 	  AP is using non-zero key index for the unicast key and key index zero
   1045 	  for the broadcast key
   1046 	* driver_hostap: fixed IEEE 802.1X WEP key updates and
   1047 	  re-authentication by allowing unencrypted EAPOL frames when not using
   1048 	  WPA
   1049 	* added a new driver interface, 'wext', which uses only standard,
   1050 	  driver independent functionality in Linux wireless extensions;
   1051 	  currently, this can be used only for non-WPA IEEE 802.1X mode, but
   1052 	  eventually, this is to be extended to support full WPA/WPA2 once
   1053 	  Linux wireless extensions get support for this
   1054 	* added support for mode in which the driver is responsible for AP
   1055 	  scanning and selection; this is disabled by default and can be
   1056 	  enabled with global ap_scan=0 variable in wpa_supplicant.conf;
   1057 	  this mode can be used, e.g., with generic 'wext' driver interface to
   1058 	  use wpa_supplicant as IEEE 802.1X Supplicant with any Linux driver
   1059 	  supporting wireless extensions.
   1060 	* driver_madwifi: fixed WPA2 configuration and scan_ssid=1 (e.g.,
   1061 	  operation with an AP that does not include SSID in the Beacon frames)
   1062 	* added support for new EAP authentication methods:
   1063 	  EAP-TTLS/EAP-OTP, EAP-PEAPv0/OTP, EAP-PEAPv1/OTP, EAP-OTP
   1064 	* added support for asking one-time-passwords from frontends (e.g.,
   1065 	  wpa_cli); this 'otp' command works otherwise like 'password' command,
   1066 	  but the password is used only once and the frontend will be asked for
   1067 	  a new password whenever a request from authenticator requires a
   1068 	  password; this can be used with both EAP-OTP and EAP-GTC
   1069 	* changed wpa_cli to automatically re-establish connection so that it
   1070 	  does not need to be re-started when wpa_supplicant is terminated and
   1071 	  started again
   1072 	* improved user data (identity/password/otp) requests through
   1073 	  frontends: process pending EAPOL packets after getting new
   1074 	  information so that full authentication does not need to be
   1075 	  restarted; in addition, send pending requests again whenever a new
   1076 	  frontend is attached
   1077 	* changed control frontends to use a new directory for socket files to
   1078 	  make it easier for wpa_cli to automatically select between interfaces
   1079 	  and to provide access control for the control interface;
   1080 	  wpa_supplicant.conf: ctrl_interface is now a path
   1081 	  (/var/run/wpa_supplicant is the recommended path) and
   1082 	  ctrl_interface_group can be used to select which group gets access to
   1083 	  the control interface;
   1084 	  wpa_cli: by default, try to connect to the first interface available
   1085 	  in /var/run/wpa_supplicant; this path can be overriden with -p option
   1086 	  and an interface can be selected with -i option (i.e., in most common
   1087 	  cases, wpa_cli does not need to get any arguments)
   1088 	* added support for LEAP
   1089 	* added driver interface for Linux ndiswrapper
   1090 	* added priority option for network blocks in the configuration file;
   1091 	  this allows networks to be grouped based on priority (the scan
   1092 	  results are searched for matches with network blocks in this order)
   1093 
   1094 2004-06-20 - v0.2.3
   1095 	* sort scan results to improve AP selection
   1096 	* fixed control interface socket removal for some error cases
   1097 	* improved scan requesting and authentication timeout
   1098 	* small improvements/bug fixes for EAP-MSCHAPv2, EAP-PEAP, and
   1099 	  TLS processing
   1100 	* PEAP version can now be forced with phase1="peapver=<ver>"
   1101 	  (mostly for testing; by default, the highest version supported by
   1102 	  both the Supplicant and Authentication Server is selected
   1103 	  automatically)
   1104 	* added support for madwifi driver (Atheros ar521x)
   1105 	* added a workaround for cases where AP sets Install Tx/Rx bit for
   1106 	  WPA Group Key messages when pairwise keys are used (without this,
   1107 	  the Group Key would be used for Tx and the AP would drop frames
   1108 	  from the station)
   1109 	* added GSM SIM/USIM interface for GSM authentication algorithm for
   1110 	  EAP-SIM; this requires pcsc-lite
   1111 	* added support for ATMEL AT76C5XXx driver
   1112 	* fixed IEEE 802.1X WEP key derivation in the case where Authenticator
   1113 	  does not include key data in the EAPOL-Key frame (i.e., part of
   1114 	  EAP keying material is used as data encryption key)
   1115 	* added support for using plaintext and static WEP networks
   1116 	  (key_mgmt=NONE)
   1117 
   1118 2004-05-31 - v0.2.2
   1119 	* added support for new EAP authentication methods:
   1120 	  EAP-TTLS/EAP-MD5-Challenge
   1121 	  EAP-TTLS/EAP-GTC
   1122 	  EAP-TTLS/EAP-MSCHAPv2
   1123 	  EAP-TTLS/EAP-TLS
   1124 	  EAP-TTLS/MSCHAPv2
   1125 	  EAP-TTLS/MSCHAP
   1126 	  EAP-TTLS/PAP
   1127 	  EAP-TTLS/CHAP
   1128 	  EAP-PEAP/TLS
   1129 	  EAP-PEAP/GTC
   1130 	  EAP-PEAP/MD5-Challenge
   1131 	  EAP-GTC
   1132 	  EAP-SIM (not yet complete; needs GSM/SIM authentication interface)
   1133 	* added support for anonymous identity (to be used when identity is
   1134 	  sent in plaintext; real identity will be used within TLS protected
   1135 	  tunnel (e.g., with EAP-TTLS)
   1136 	* added event messages from wpa_supplicant to frontends, e.g., wpa_cli
   1137 	* added support for requesting identity and password information using
   1138 	  control interface; in other words, the password for EAP-PEAP or
   1139 	  EAP-TTLS does not need to be included in the configuration file since
   1140 	  a frontand (e.g., wpa_cli) can ask it from the user
   1141 	* improved RSN pre-authentication to use a candidate list and process
   1142 	  all candidates from each scan; not only one per scan
   1143 	* fixed RSN IE and WPA IE capabilities field parsing
   1144 	* ignore Tx bit in GTK IE when Pairwise keys are used
   1145 	* avoid making new scan requests during IEEE 802.1X negotiation
   1146 	* use openssl/libcrypto for MD5 and SHA-1 when compiling wpa_supplicant
   1147 	  with TLS support (this replaces the included implementation with
   1148 	  library code to save about 8 kB since the library code is needed
   1149 	  anyway for TLS)
   1150 	* fixed WPA-PSK only mode when compiled without IEEE 802.1X support
   1151 	  (i.e., without CONFIG_IEEE8021X_EAPOL=y in .config)
   1152 
   1153 2004-05-06 - v0.2.1
   1154 	* added support for internal IEEE 802.1X (actually, IEEE 802.1aa/D6.1)
   1155 	  Supplicant
   1156 	  - EAPOL state machines for Supplicant [IEEE 802.1aa/D6.1]
   1157 	  - EAP peer state machine [draft-ietf-eap-statemachine-02.pdf]
   1158 	  - EAP-MD5 (cannot be used with WPA-RADIUS)
   1159 	    [draft-ietf-eap-rfc2284bis-09.txt]
   1160 	  - EAP-TLS [RFC 2716]
   1161 	  - EAP-MSCHAPv2 (currently used only with EAP-PEAP)
   1162 	  - EAP-PEAP/MSCHAPv2 [draft-josefsson-pppext-eap-tls-eap-07.txt]
   1163 	    [draft-kamath-pppext-eap-mschapv2-00.txt]
   1164 	    (PEAP version 0, 1, and parts of 2; only 0 and 1 are enabled by
   1165 	    default; tested with FreeRADIUS, Microsoft IAS, and Funk Odyssey)
   1166 	  - new configuration file options: eap, identity, password, ca_cert,
   1167 	    client_cert, privatekey, private_key_passwd
   1168 	  - Xsupplicant is not required anymore, but it can be used by
   1169 	    disabling the internal IEEE 802.1X Supplicant with -e command line
   1170 	    option
   1171 	  - this code is not included in the default build; Makefile need to
   1172 	    be edited for this (uncomment lines for selected functionality)
   1173 	  - EAP-TLS and EAP-PEAP require openssl libraries
   1174 	* use module prefix in debug messages (WPA, EAP, EAP-TLS, ..)
   1175 	* added support for non-WPA IEEE 802.1X mode with dynamic WEP keys
   1176 	  (i.e., complete IEEE 802.1X/EAP authentication and use IEEE 802.1X
   1177 	   EAPOL-Key frames instead of WPA key handshakes)
   1178 	* added support for IEEE 802.11i/RSN (WPA2)
   1179 	  - improved PTK Key Handshake
   1180 	  - PMKSA caching, pre-authentication
   1181 	* fixed wpa_supplicant to ignore possible extra data after WPA
   1182 	  EAPOL-Key packets (this fixes 'Invalid EAPOL-Key MIC when using
   1183 	  TPTK' error from message 3 of 4-Way Handshake in case the AP
   1184 	  includes extra data after the EAPOL-Key)
   1185 	* added interface for external programs (frontends) to control
   1186 	  wpa_supplicant
   1187 	  - CLI example (wpa_cli) with interactive mode and command line
   1188 	    mode
   1189 	  - replaced SIGUSR1 status/statistics with the new control interface
   1190 	* made some feature compile time configurable
   1191 	  - .config file for make
   1192 	  - driver interfaces (hostap, hermes, ..)
   1193 	  - EAPOL/EAP functions
   1194 
   1195 2004-02-15 - v0.2.0
   1196 	* Initial version of wpa_supplicant
   1197
