    355 	  - SQLite database can now be used to store Milenage information
    356 	* EAP-SIM/AKA DB: added optional use of SQLite database for pseudonyms
    357 	  and reauth data
    358 	* added support for Chargeable-User-Identity (RFC 4372)
    359 	* added radius_auth_req_attr and radius_acct_req_attr configuration
    360 	  parameters to allow adding/overriding of RADIUS attributes in
    361 	  Access-Request and Accounting-Request packets
    362 	* added support for RADIUS dynamic authorization server (RFC 5176)
    363 	* added initial support for WNM operations
    364 	  - BSS max idle period
    365 	  - WNM-Sleep Mode
    366 	* added new WPS NFC ctrl_iface mechanism
    367 	  - removed obsoleted WPS_OOB command (including support for deprecated
    368 	    UFD config_method)
    369 	* added FT support for drivers that implement MLME internally
    370 	* added SA Query support for drivers that implement MLME internally
    371 	* removed default ACM=1 from AC_VO and AC_VI
    372 	* changed VENDOR-TEST EAP method to use proper private enterprise number
    373 	  (this will not interoperate with older versions)
    374 	* added hostapd.conf parameter vendor_elements to allow arbitrary vendor
    375 	  specific elements to be added to the Beacon and Probe Response frames
    376 	* added support for configuring GCMP cipher for IEEE 802.11ad
    377 	* added support for 256-bit AES with internal TLS implementation
    378 	* changed EAPOL transmission to use AC_VO if WMM is active
    379 	* fixed EAP-TLS/PEAP/TTLS/FAST server to validate TLS Message Length
    380 	  correctly; invalid messages could have caused the hostapd process to
    381 	  terminate before this fix [CVE-2012-4445]
    382 	* limit number of active wildcard PINs for WPS Registrar to one to avoid
    383 	  confusing behavior with multiple wildcard PINs
    384 	* added a workaround for WPS PBC session overlap detection to avoid
    385 	  interop issues with deployed station implementations that do not

    387 	* added support for using SQLite for the eap_user database
    388 	* added Acct-Session-Id attribute into Access-Request messages
    389 	* fixed EAPOL frame transmission to non-QoS STAs with nl80211
    390 	  (do not send QoS frames if the STA did not negotiate use of QoS for
    391 	  this association)
    392 
    393 2012-05-10 - v1.0
    394 	* Add channel selection support in hostapd. See hostapd.conf.
    395 	* Add support for IEEE 802.11v Time Advertisement mechanism with UTC
    396 	  TSF offset. See hostapd.conf for config info.
    397 	* Delay STA entry removal until Deauth/Disassoc TX status in AP mode.
    398 	  This allows the driver to use PS buffering of Deauthentication and
    399 	  Disassociation frames when the STA is in power save sleep. Only
    400 	  available with drivers that provide TX status events for Deauth/
    401 	  Disassoc frames (nl80211).
    402 	* Allow PMKSA caching to be disabled on the Authenticator. See
    403 	  hostap.conf config parameter disable_pmksa_caching.
    404 	* atheros: Add support for IEEE 802.11w configuration.
    405 	* bsd: Add support for setting HT values in IFM_MMASK.
    406 	* Allow client isolation to be configured with ap_isolate. Client
    407 	  isolation can be used to prevent low-level bridging of frames
    408 	  between associated stations in the BSS. By default, this bridging
    409 	  is allowed.
    410 	* Allow coexistance of HT BSSes with WEP/TKIP BSSes.
    411 	* Add require_ht config parameter, which can be used to configure
    412 	  hostapd to reject association with any station that does not support
    413 	  HT PHY.
    414 	* Add support for writing debug log to a file using "-f" option. Also
    415 	  add relog CLI command to re-open the log file.
    416 	* Add bridge handling for WDS STA interfaces. By default they are
    417 	  added to the configured bridge of the AP interface (if present),
    418 	  but the user can also specify a separate bridge using cli command
    419 	  wds_bridge.
    420 	* hostapd_cli:
    421 	  - Add wds_bridge command for specifying bridge for WDS STA
    422 	    interfaces.
    423 	  - Add relog command for reopening log file.
    424 	  - Send AP-STA-DISCONNECTED event when an AP disconnects a station
    425 	    due to inactivity.
    426 	  - Add wps_config ctrl_interface command for configuring AP. This
    427 	    command can be used to configure the AP using the internal WPS
    428 	    registrar. It works in the same way as new AP settings received
    429 	    from an ER.
    430 	  - Many WPS/WPS ER commands - see WPS/WPS ER sections for details.
    431 	  - Add command get version, that returns hostapd version string.
    432 	* WNM: Add BSS Transition Management Request for ESS Disassoc Imminent.
    433 	  Use hostapd_cli ess_disassoc (STA addr) (URL) to send the
    434 	  notification to the STA.
    435 	* Allow AP mode to disconnect STAs based on low ACK condition (when
    436 	  the data connection is not working properly, e.g., due to the STA
    437 	  going outside the range of the AP). Disabled by default, enable by
    438 	  config option disassoc_low_ack.
    439 	* Add WPA_IGNORE_CONFIG_ERRORS build option to continue in case of bad
    440 	  config file.
    441 	* WPS:
    442 	  - Send AP Settings as a wrapped Credential attribute to ctrl_iface
    443 	    in WPS-NEW-AP-SETTINGS.
    444 	  - Dispatch more WPS events through hostapd ctrl_iface.
    445 	  - Add mechanism for indicating non-standard WPS errors.
    446 	  - Change concurrent radio AP to use only one WPS UPnP instance.
    447 	  - Add wps_check_pin command for processing PIN from user input.
    448 	    UIs can use this command to process a PIN entered by a user and to
    449 	    validate the checksum digit (if present).
    450 	  - Add hostap_cli get_config command to display current AP config.
    451 	  - Add new hostapd_cli command, wps_ap_pin, to manage AP PIN at
    452 	    runtime and support dynamic AP PIN management.
    453 	  - Disable AP PIN after 10 consecutive failures. Slow down attacks
    454 	    on failures up to 10.
    455 	  - Allow AP to start in Enrollee mode without AP PIN for probing,
    456 	    to be compatible with Windows 7.
    457 	  - Add Config Error into WPS-FAIL events to provide more info
    458 	    to the user on how to resolve the issue.
    459 	  - When controlling multiple interfaces:
    460 	     - apply WPS commands to all interfaces configured to use WPS
    461 	     - apply WPS config changes to all interfaces that use WPS
    462 	     - when an attack is detected on any interface, disable AP PIN on
    463 	       all interfaces
    464 	* WPS ER:
    465 	  - Show SetSelectedRegistrar events as ctrl_iface events.
    466 	  - Add special AP Setup Locked mode to allow read only ER.
    467 	    ap_setup_locked=2 can now be used to enable a special mode where
    468 	    WPS ER can learn the current AP settings, but cannot change them.
    469 	* WPS 2.0: Add support for WPS 2.0 (CONFIG_WPS2)
    470 	  - Add build option CONFIG_WPS_EXTENSIBILITY_TESTING to enable tool
    471 	    for testing protocol extensibility.
    472 	  - Add build option CONFIG_WPS_STRICT to allow disabling of WPS
    473 	    workarounds.
    474 	  - Add support for AuthorizedMACs attribute.
    475 	* TDLS:
    476 	  - Allow TDLS use or TDLS channel switching in the BSS to be
    477 	    prohibited in the BSS, using config params tdls_prohibit and
    478 	    tdls_prohibit_chan_switch.
    479 	* EAP server: Add support for configuring fragment size (see
    480 	  fragment_size in hostapd.conf).
    481 	* wlantest: Add a tool wlantest for IEEE802.11 protocol testing.
    482 	  wlantest can be used to capture frames from a monitor interface
    483 	  for realtime capturing or from pcap files for offline analysis.
    484 	* Interworking: Support added for 802.11u. Enable in .config with
    485 	  CONFIG_INTERWORKING. See hostapd.conf for config parameters for
    486 	  interworking.
    487 	* Android: Add build and runtime support for Android hostapd.
    488 	* Add a new debug message level for excessive information. Use
    489 	  -ddd to enable.
    490 	* TLS: Add support for tls_disable_time_checks=1 in client mode.
    491 	* Internal TLS:
    492 	  - Add support for TLS v1.1 (RFC 4346). Enable with build parameter
    493 	    CONFIG_TLSV11.
    494 	  - Add domainComponent parser for X.509 names
    495 	* Reorder some IEs to get closer to IEEE 802.11 standard. Move
    496 	  WMM into end of Beacon, Probe Resp and (Re)Assoc Resp frames.
    497 	  Move HT IEs to be later in (Re)Assoc Resp.
    498 	* Many bugfixes.
    499

    504 	  configuration options
    505 	* TNC: fixed issues with fragmentation
    506 	* EAP-TNC: add Flags field into fragment acknowledgement (needed to
    507 	  interoperate with other implementations; may potentially breaks
    508 	  compatibility with older wpa_supplicant/hostapd versions)
    509 	* cleaned up driver wrapper API for multi-BSS operations
    510 	* nl80211: fix multi-BSS and VLAN operations
    511 	* fix number of issues with IEEE 802.11r/FT; this version is not
    512 	  backwards compatible with old versions
    513 	* add SA Query Request processing in AP mode (IEEE 802.11w)
    514 	* fix IGTK PN in group rekeying (IEEE 802.11w)
    515 	* fix WPS PBC session overlap detection to use correct attribute
    516 	* hostapd_notif_Assoc() can now be called with all IEs to simplify
    517 	  driver wrappers
    518 	* work around interoperability issue with some WPS External Registrar
    519 	  implementations
    520 	* nl80211: fix WPS IE update
    521 	* hostapd_cli: add support for action script operations (run a script
    522 	  on hostapd events)
    523 	* fix DH padding with internal crypto code (mainly, for WPS)
    524 	* fix WPS association with both WPS IE and WPA/RSN IE present with
    525 	  driver wrappers that use hostapd MLME (e.g., nl80211)
    526 
    527 2010-01-16 - v0.7.1
    528 	* cleaned up driver wrapper API (struct wpa_driver_ops); the new API
    529 	  is not fully backwards compatible, so out-of-tree driver wrappers
    530 	  will need modifications
    531 	* cleaned up various module interfaces
    532 	* merge hostapd and wpa_supplicant developers' documentation into a
    533 	  single document
    534 	* fixed HT Capabilities IE with nl80211 drivers
    535 	* moved generic AP functionality code into src/ap
    536 	* WPS: handle Selected Registrar as union of info from all Registrars
    537 	* remove obsolte Prism54.org driver wrapper
    538 	* added internal debugging mechanism with backtrace support and memory

    541 	* WPS: add support for dynamically selecting whether to provision the
    542 	  PSK as an ASCII passphrase or PSK
    543 	* added support for WDS (4-address frame) mode with per-station virtual
    544 	  interfaces (wds_sta=1 in config file; only supported with
    545 	  driver=nl80211 for now)
    546 	* fixed WPS Probe Request processing to handle missing required
    547 	  attribute
    548 	* fixed PKCS#12 use with OpenSSL 1.0.0
    549 	* detect bridge interface automatically so that bridge parameter in
    550 	  hostapd.conf becomes optional (though, it may now be used to
    551 	  automatically add then WLAN interface into a bridge with
    552 	  driver=nl80211)
    553 
    554 2009-11-21 - v0.7.0
    555 	* increased hostapd_cli ping interval to 5 seconds and made this
    556 	  configurable with a new command line options (-G<seconds>)
    557 	* driver_nl80211: use Linux socket filter to improve performance
    558 	* added support for external Registrars with WPS (UPnP transport)
    559 	* 802.11n: scan for overlapping BSSes before starting 20/40 MHz channel
    560 	* driver_nl80211: fixed STA accounting data collection (TX/RX bytes
    561 	  reported correctly; TX/RX packets not yet available from kernel)
    562 	* added support for WPS USBA out-of-band mechanism with USB Flash
    563 	  Drives (UFD) (CONFIG_WPS_UFD=y)
    564 	* fixed EAPOL/EAP reauthentication when using an external RADIUS
    565 	  authentication server
    566 	* fixed TNC with EAP-TTLS
    567 	* fixed IEEE 802.11r key derivation function to match with the standard
    568 	  (note: this breaks interoperability with previous version) [Bug 303]
    569 	* fixed SHA-256 based key derivation function to match with the
    570 	  standard when using CCMP (for IEEE 802.11r and IEEE 802.11w)
    571 	  (note: this breaks interoperability with previous version) [Bug 307]
    572 	* added number of code size optimizations to remove unnecessary
    573 	  functionality from the program binary based on build configuration
    574 	  (part of this automatic; part configurable with CONFIG_NO_* build
    575 	  options)
    576 	* use shared driver wrapper files with wpa_supplicant
    577 	* driver_nl80211: multiple updates to provide support for new Linux
    578 	  nl80211/mac80211 functionality
    579 	* updated management frame protection to use IEEE Std 802.11w-2009
    580 	* fixed number of small WPS issues and added workarounds to
    581 	  interoperate with common deployed broken implementations
    582 	* added some IEEE 802.11n co-existence rules to disable 40 MHz channels
    583 	  or modify primary/secondary channels if needed based on neighboring
    584 	  networks
    585 	* added support for NFC out-of-band mechanism with WPS
    586 	* added preliminary support for IEEE 802.11r RIC processing
    587 
    588 2009-01-06 - v0.6.7
    589 	* added support for Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)
    590 	  (hostapd can now be configured to act as an integrated WPS Registrar
    591 	  and provision credentials for WPS Enrollees using PIN and PBC
    592 	  methods; external wireless Registrar can configure the AP, but
    593 	  external WLAN Manager Registrars are not supported); WPS support can
    594 	  be enabled by adding CONFIG_WPS=y into .config and setting the
    595 	  runtime configuration variables in hostapd.conf (see WPS section in
    596 	  the example configuration file); new hostapd_cli commands wps_pin and
    597 	  wps_pbc are used to configure WPS negotiation; see README-WPS for
    598 	  more details
    599 	* added IEEE 802.11n HT capability configuration (ht_capab)
    600 	* added support for generating Country IE based on nl80211 regulatory

    602 	* fixed WEP authentication (both Open System and Shared Key) with
    603 	  mac80211
    604 	* added support for EAP-AKA' (draft-arkko-eap-aka-kdf)
    605 	* added support for using driver_test over UDP socket

    608 	* fixed retransmission of EAP requests if no response is received
    609 
    610 2008-11-23 - v0.6.6
    611 	* added a new configuration option, wpa_ptk_rekey, that can be used to
    612 	  enforce frequent PTK rekeying, e.g., to mitigate some attacks against
    613 	  TKIP deficiencies
    614 	* updated OpenSSL code for EAP-FAST to use an updated version of the
    615 	  session ticket overriding API that was included into the upstream
    616 	  OpenSSL 0.9.9 tree on 2008-11-15 (no additional OpenSSL patch is
    617 	  needed with that version anymore)
    618 	* changed channel flags configuration to read the information from
    619 	  the driver (e.g., via driver_nl80211 when using mac80211) instead of
    620 	  using hostapd as the source of the regulatory information (i.e.,
    621 	  information from CRDA is now used with mac80211); this allows 5 GHz
    622 	  channels to be used with hostapd (if allowed in the current
    623 	  regulatory domain)
    624 	* fixed EAP-TLS message processing for the last TLS message if it is
    625 	  large enough to require fragmentation (e.g., if a large Session
    626 	  Ticket data is included)
    627 	* fixed listen interval configuration for nl80211 drivers
    628 
    629 2008-11-01 - v0.6.5
    630 	* added support for SHA-256 as X.509 certificate digest when using the
    631 	  internal X.509/TLSv1 implementation
    632 	* fixed EAP-FAST PAC-Opaque padding (0.6.4 broke this for some peer
    633 	  identity lengths)
    634 	* fixed internal TLSv1 implementation for abbreviated handshake (used
    635 	  by EAP-FAST server)
    636 	* added support for setting VLAN ID for STAs based on local MAC ACL
    637 	  (accept_mac_file) as an alternative for RADIUS server-based
    638 	  configuration
    639 	* updated management frame protection to use IEEE 802.11w/D6.0
    640 	  (adds a new association ping to protect against unauthenticated
    641 	  authenticate or (re)associate request frames dropping association)
    642 	* added support for using SHA256-based stronger key derivation for WPA2
    643 	  (IEEE 802.11w)
    644 	* added new "driver wrapper" for RADIUS-only configuration
    645 	  (driver=none in hostapd.conf; CONFIG_DRIVER_NONE=y in .config)
    646 	* fixed WPA/RSN IE validation to verify that the proto (WPA vs. WPA2)
    647 	  is enabled in configuration
    648 	* changed EAP-FAST configuration to use separate fields for A-ID and
    649 	  A-ID-Info (eap_fast_a_id_info) to allow A-ID to be set to a fixed
    650 	  16-octet len binary value for better interoperability with some peer
    651 	  implementations; eap_fast_a_id is now configured as a hex string
    652 	* driver_nl80211: Updated to match the current Linux mac80211 AP mode
    653 	  configuration (wireless-testing.git and Linux kernel releases
    654 	  starting from 2.6.29)
    655 
    656 2008-08-10 - v0.6.4
    657 	* added peer identity into EAP-FAST PAC-Opaque and skip Phase 2
    658 	  Identity Request if identity is already known
    659 	* added support for EAP Sequences in EAP-FAST Phase 2
    660 	* added support for EAP-TNC (Trusted Network Connect)
    661 	  (this version implements the EAP-TNC method and EAP-TTLS/EAP-FAST
    662 	  changes needed to run two methods in sequence (IF-T) and the IF-IMV
    663 	  and IF-TNCCS interfaces from TNCS)
    664 	* added support for optional cryptobinding with PEAPv0
    665 	* added fragmentation support for EAP-TNC
    666 	* added support for fragmenting EAP-TTLS/PEAP/FAST Phase 2 (tunneled)
    667 	  data
    668 	* added support for opportunistic key caching (OKC)
    669 
    670 2008-02-22 - v0.6.3
    671 	* fixed Reassociation Response callback processing when using internal
    672 	  MLME (driver_{hostap,nl80211,test}.c)
    673 	* updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D9.0
    674 	* copy optional Proxy-State attributes into RADIUS response when acting
    675 	  as a RADIUS authentication server
    676 	* fixed EAPOL state machine to handle a case in which no response is
    677 	  received from the RADIUS authentication server; previous version
    678 	  could have triggered a crash in some cases after a timeout
    679 	* fixed EAP-SIM/AKA realm processing to allow decorated usernames to
    680 	  be used
    681 	* added a workaround for EAP-SIM/AKA peers that include incorrect null
    682 	  termination in the username
    683 	* fixed EAP-SIM/AKA protected result indication to include AT_COUNTER
    684 	  attribute in notification messages only when using fast
    685 	  reauthentication
    686 	* fixed EAP-SIM Start response processing for fast reauthentication
    687 	  case
    688 	* added support for pending EAP processing in EAP-{PEAP,TTLS,FAST}
    689 	  phase 2 to allow EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA to be used as the Phase 2 method
    690 
    691 2008-01-01 - v0.6.2
    692 	* fixed EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA message parser to validate attribute
    693 	  lengths properly to avoid potential crash caused by invalid messages
    694 	* added data structure for storing allocated buffers (struct wpabuf);
    695 	  this does not affect hostapd usage, but many of the APIs changed
    696 	  and various interfaces (e.g., EAP) is not compatible with old
    697 	  versions
    698 	* added support for protecting EAP-AKA/Identity messages with
    699 	  AT_CHECKCODE (optional feature in RFC 4187)
    700 	* added support for protected result indication with AT_RESULT_IND for
    701 	  EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA (eap_sim_aka_result_ind=1)
    702 	* added support for configuring EAP-TTLS phase 2 non-EAP methods in
    703 	  EAP server configuration; previously all four were enabled for every
    704 	  phase 2 user, now all four are disabled by default and need to be
    705 	  enabled with new method names TTLS-PAP, TTLS-CHAP, TTLS-MSCHAP,
    706 	  TTLS-MSCHAPV2
    707 	* removed old debug printing mechanism and the related 'debug'
    708 	  parameter in the configuration file; debug verbosity is now set with
    709 	  -d (or -dd) command line arguments
    710 	* added support for EAP-IKEv2 (draft-tschofenig-eap-ikev2-15.txt);
    711 	  only shared key/password authentication is supported in this version
    712 
    713 2007-11-24 - v0.6.1
    714 	* added experimental, integrated TLSv1 server implementation with the
    715 	  needed X.509/ASN.1/RSA/bignum processing (this can be enabled by
    716 	  setting CONFIG_TLS=internal and CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH=y in
    717 	  .config); this can be useful, e.g., if the target system does not
    718 	  have a suitable TLS library and a minimal code size is required
    719 	* added support for EAP-FAST server method to the integrated EAP
    720 	  server
    721 	* updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
    722 	  draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-07.txt)
    723 	* added a new configuration parameter, rsn_pairwise, to allow different
    724 	  pairwise cipher suites to be enabled for WPA and RSN/WPA2
    725 	  (note: if wpa_pairwise differs from rsn_pairwise, the driver will
    726 	  either need to support this or will have to use the WPA/RSN IEs from
    727 	  hostapd; currently, the included madwifi and bsd driver interfaces do
    728 	  not have support for this)
    729 	* updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D8.0
    730 
    731 2007-05-28 - v0.6.0
    732 	* added experimental IEEE 802.11r/D6.0 support
    733 	* updated EAP-SAKE to RFC 4763 and the IANA-allocated EAP type 48
    734 	* updated EAP-PSK to use the IANA-allocated EAP type 47
    735 	* fixed EAP-PSK bit ordering of the Flags field
    736 	* fixed configuration reloading (SIGHUP) to re-initialize WPA PSKs
    737 	  by reading wpa_psk_file [Bug 181]
    738 	* fixed EAP-TTLS AVP parser processing for too short AVP lengths
    739 	* fixed IPv6 connection to RADIUS accounting server
    740 	* updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
    741 	  draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-04.txt)
    742 	* hlr_auc_gw: read GSM triplet file into memory and rotate through the
    743 	  entries instead of only using the same three triplets every time
    744 	  (this does not work properly with tests using multiple clients, but
    745 	  provides bit better triplet data for testing a single client; anyway,
    746 	  if a better quality triplets are needed, GSM-Milenage should be used
    747 	  instead of hardcoded triplet file)
    748 	* fixed EAP-MSCHAPv2 server to use a space between S and M parameters
    749 	  in Success Request [Bug 203]
    750 	* added support for sending EAP-AKA Notifications in error cases
    751 	* updated to use IEEE 802.11w/D2.0 for management frame protection
    752 	  (still experimental)
    753 	* RADIUS server: added support for processing duplicate messages
    754 	  (retransmissions from RADIUS client) by replying with the previous
    755 	  reply
    756 
    757 2006-11-24 - v0.5.6
    758 	* added support for configuring and controlling multiple BSSes per
    759 	  radio interface (bss=<ifname> in hostapd.conf); this is only
    760 	  available with Devicescape and test driver interfaces
    761 	* fixed PMKSA cache update in the end of successful RSN
    762 	  pre-authentication
    763 	* added support for dynamic VLAN configuration (i.e., selecting VLAN-ID
    764 	  for each STA based on RADIUS Access-Accept attributes); this requires
    765 	  VLAN support from the kernel driver/802.11 stack and this is
    766 	  currently only available with Devicescape and test driver interfaces
    767 	* driver_madwifi: fixed configuration of unencrypted modes (plaintext
    768 	  and IEEE 802.1X without WEP)
    769 	* removed STAKey handshake since PeerKey handshake has replaced it in
    770 	  IEEE 802.11ma and there are no known deployments of STAKey
    771 	* updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
    772 	  draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-01.txt)
    773 	* added preliminary implementation of IEEE 802.11w/D1.0 (management
    774 	  frame protection)
    775 	  (Note: this requires driver support to work properly.)
    776 	  (Note2: IEEE 802.11w is an unapproved draft and subject to change.)
    777 	* hlr_auc_gw: added support for GSM-Milenage (for EAP-SIM)
    778 	* hlr_auc_gw: added support for reading per-IMSI Milenage keys and
    779 	  parameters from a text file to make it possible to implement proper
    780 	  GSM/UMTS authentication server for multiple SIM/USIM cards using
    781 	  EAP-SIM/EAP-AKA
    782 	* fixed session timeout processing with drivers that do not use
    783 	  ieee802_11.c (e.g., madwifi)
    784 
    785 2006-08-27 - v0.5.5
    786 	* added 'hostapd_cli new_sta <addr>' command for adding a new STA into
    787 	  hostapd (e.g., to initialize wired network authentication based on an
    788 	  external signal)
    789 	* fixed hostapd to add PMKID KDE into 4-Way Handshake Message 1 when
    790 	  using WPA2 even if PMKSA caching is not used
    791 	* added -P<pid file> argument for hostapd to write the current process
    792 	  id into a file
    793 	* added support for RADIUS Authentication Server MIB (RFC 2619)
    794 
    795 2006-06-20 - v0.5.4
    796 	* fixed nt_password_hash build [Bug 144]
    797 	* added PeerKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e
    798 	  direct link setup (DLS) to replace STAKey handshake
    799 	* added support for EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK,
    800 	  draft-clancy-emu-eap-shared-secret-00.txt)
    801 	* fixed a segmentation fault when RSN pre-authentication was completed
    802 	  successfully [Bug 152]
    803 
    804 2006-04-27 - v0.5.3
    805 	* do not build nt_password_hash and hlr_auc_gw by default to avoid
    806 	  requiring a TLS library for a successful build; these programs can be
    807 	  build with 'make nt_password_hash' and 'make hlr_auc_gw'
    808 	* added a new configuration option, eapol_version, that can be used to
    809 	  set EAPOL version to 1 (default is 2) to work around broken client
    810 	  implementations that drop EAPOL frames which use version number 2
    811 	  [Bug 89]
    812 	* added support for EAP-SAKE (no EAP method number allocated yet, so
    813 	  this is using the same experimental type 255 as EAP-PSK)
    814 	* fixed EAP-MSCHAPv2 message length validation
    815 
    816 2006-03-19 - v0.5.2
    817 	* fixed stdarg use in hostapd_logger(): if both stdout and syslog
    818 	  logging was enabled, hostapd could trigger a segmentation fault in
    819 	  vsyslog on some CPU -- C library combinations
    820 	* moved HLR/AuC gateway implementation for EAP-SIM/AKA into an external
    821 	  program to make it easier to use for implementing real SS7 gateway;
    822 	  eap_sim_db is not anymore used as a file name for GSM authentication
    823 	  triplets; instead, it is path to UNIX domain socket that will be used
    824 	  to communicate with the external gateway program (e.g., hlr_auc_gw)
    825 	* added example HLR/AuC gateway implementation, hlr_auc_gw, that uses
    826 	  local information (GSM authentication triplets from a text file and
    827 	  hardcoded AKA authentication data); this can be used to test EAP-SIM
    828 	  and EAP-AKA
    829 	* added Milenage algorithm (example 3GPP AKA algorithm) to hlr_auc_gw
    830 	  to make it possible to test EAP-AKA with real USIM cards (this is
    831 	  disabled by default; define AKA_USE_MILENAGE when building hlr_auc_gw
    832 	  to enable this)
    833 	* driver_madwifi: added support for getting station RSN IE from
    834 	  madwifi-ng svn r1453 and newer; this fixes RSN that was apparently
    835 	  broken with earlier change (r1357) in the driver
    836 	* changed EAP method registration to use a dynamic list of methods
    837 	  instead of a static list generated at build time
    838 	* fixed WPA message 3/4 not to encrypt Key Data field (WPA IE)
    839 	  [Bug 125]
    840 	* added ap_max_inactivity configuration parameter
    841 
    842 2006-01-29 - v0.5.1
    843 	* driver_test: added better support for multiple APs and STAs by using
    844 	  a directory with sockets that include MAC address for each device in
    845 	  the name (test_socket=DIR:/tmp/test)
    846 	* added support for EAP expanded type (vendor specific EAP methods)
    847 
    848 2005-12-18 - v0.5.0 (beginning of 0.5.x development releases)
    849 	* added experimental STAKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e
    850 	  direct link setup (DLS); note: this is disabled by default in both
    851 	  build and runtime configuration (can be enabled with CONFIG_STAKEY=y
    852 	  and stakey=1)
    853 	* added support for EAP methods to use callbacks to external programs
    854 	  by buffering a pending request and processing it after the EAP method
    855 	  is ready to continue
    856 	* improved EAP-SIM database interface to allow external request to GSM
    857 	  HLR/AuC without blocking hostapd process
    858 	* added support for using EAP-SIM pseudonyms and fast re-authentication
    859 	* added support for EAP-AKA in the integrated EAP authenticator
    860 	* added support for matching EAP identity prefixes (e.g., "1"*) in EAP
    861 	  user database to allow EAP-SIM/AKA selection without extra roundtrip
    862 	  for EAP-Nak negotiation
    863 	* added support for storing EAP user password as NtPasswordHash instead
    864 	  of plaintext password when using MSCHAP or MSCHAPv2 for
    865 	  authentication (hash:<16-octet hex value>); added nt_password_hash
    866 	  tool for hashing password to generate NtPasswordHash
    867 
    868 2005-11-20 - v0.4.7 (beginning of 0.4.x stable releases)
    869 	* driver_wired: fixed EAPOL sending to optionally use PAE group address
    870 	  as the destination instead of supplicant MAC address; this is
    871 	  disabled by default, but should be enabled with use_pae_group_addr=1
    872 	  in configuration file if the wired interface is used by only one
    873 	  device at the time (common switch configuration)
    874 	* driver_madwifi: configure driver to use TKIP countermeasures in order
    875 	  to get correct behavior (IEEE 802.11 association failing; previously,
    876 	  association succeeded, but hostpad forced disassociation immediately)
    877 	* driver_madwifi: added support for madwifi-ng
    878 
    879 2005-10-27 - v0.4.6
    880 	* added support for replacing user identity from EAP with RADIUS
    881 	  User-Name attribute from Access-Accept message, if that is included,
    882 	  for the RADIUS accounting messages (e.g., for EAP-PEAP/TTLS to get
    883 	  tunneled identity into accounting messages when the RADIUS server
    884 	  does not support better way of doing this with Class attribute)
    885 	* driver_madwifi: fixed EAPOL packet receive for configuration where
    886 	  ath# is part of a bridge interface
    887 	* added a configuration file and log analyzer script for logwatch
    888 	* fixed EAPOL state machine step function to process all state
    889 	  transitions before processing new events; this resolves a race
    890 	  condition in which EAPOL-Start message could trigger hostapd to send
    891 	  two EAP-Response/Identity frames to the authentication server
    892 
    893 2005-09-25 - v0.4.5
    894 	* added client CA list to the TLS certificate request in order to make
    895 	  it easier for the client to select which certificate to use
    896 	* added experimental support for EAP-PSK
    897 	* added support for WE-19 (hostap, madwifi)
    898 
    899 2005-08-21 - v0.4.4
    900 	* fixed build without CONFIG_RSN_PREAUTH
    901 	* fixed FreeBSD build
    902 
    903 2005-06-26 - v0.4.3
    904 	* fixed PMKSA caching to copy User-Name and Class attributes so that
    905 	  RADIUS accounting gets correct information
    906 	* start RADIUS accounting only after successful completion of WPA
    907 	  4-Way Handshake if WPA-PSK is used
    908 	* fixed PMKSA caching for the case where STA (re)associates without
    909 	  first disassociating
    910 
    911 2005-06-12 - v0.4.2
    912 	* EAP-PAX is now registered as EAP type 46
    913 	* fixed EAP-PAX MAC calculation
    914 	* fixed EAP-PAX CK and ICK key derivation
    915 	* renamed eap_authenticator configuration variable to eap_server to
    916 	  better match with RFC 3748 (EAP) terminology
    917 	* driver_test: added support for testing hostapd with wpa_supplicant
    918 	  by using test driver interface without any kernel drivers or network
    919 	  cards
    920 
    921 2005-05-22 - v0.4.1
    922 	* fixed RADIUS server initialization when only auth or acct server
    923 	  is configured and the other one is left empty
    924 	* driver_madwifi: added support for RADIUS accounting
    925 	* driver_madwifi: added preliminary support for compiling against 'BSD'
    926 	  branch of madwifi CVS tree
    927 	* driver_madwifi: fixed pairwise key removal to allow WPA reauth
    928 	  without disassociation
    929 	* added support for reading additional certificates from PKCS#12 files
    930 	  and adding them to the certificate chain
    931 	* fixed RADIUS Class attribute processing to only use Access-Accept
    932 	  packets to update Class; previously, other RADIUS authentication
    933 	  packets could have cleared Class attribute
    934 	* added support for more than one Class attribute in RADIUS packets
    935 	* added support for verifying certificate revocation list (CRL) when
    936 	  using integrated EAP authenticator for EAP-TLS; new hostapd.conf
    937 	  options 'check_crl'; CRL must be included in the ca_cert file for now
    938 
    939 2005-04-25 - v0.4.0 (beginning of 0.4.x development releases)
    940 	* added support for including network information into
    941 	  EAP-Request/Identity message (ASCII-0 (nul) in eap_message)
    942 	  (e.g., to implement draft-adrange-eap-network-discovery-07.txt)
    943 	* fixed a bug which caused some RSN pre-authentication cases to use
    944 	  freed memory and potentially crash hostapd
    945 	* fixed private key loading for cases where passphrase is not set
    946 	* added support for sending TLS alerts and aborting authentication
    947 	  when receiving a TLS alert
    948 	* fixed WPA2 to add PMKSA cache entry when using integrated EAP
    949 	  authenticator
    950 	* fixed PMKSA caching (EAP authentication was not skipped correctly
    951 	  with the new state machine changes from IEEE 802.1X draft)
    952 	* added support for RADIUS over IPv6; own_ip_addr, auth_server_addr,
    953 	  and acct_server_addr can now be IPv6 addresses (CONFIG_IPV6=y needs
    954 	  to be added to .config to include IPv6 support); for RADIUS server,
    955 	  radius_server_ipv6=1 needs to be set in hostapd.conf and addresses
    956 	  in RADIUS clients file can then use IPv6 format
    957 	* added experimental support for EAP-PAX
    958 	* replaced hostapd control interface library (hostapd_ctrl.[ch]) with
    959 	  the same implementation that wpa_supplicant is using (wpa_ctrl.[ch])
    960 
    961 2005-02-12 - v0.3.7 (beginning of 0.3.x stable releases)
    962 
    963 2005-01-23 - v0.3.5
    964 	* added support for configuring a forced PEAP version based on the
    965 	  Phase 1 identity
    966 	* fixed PEAPv1 to use tunneled EAP-Success/Failure instead of EAP-TLV
    967 	  to terminate authentication
    968 	* fixed EAP identifier duplicate processing with the new IEEE 802.1X
    969 	  draft
    970 	* clear accounting data in the driver when starting a new accounting
    971 	  session
    972 	* driver_madwifi: filter wireless events based on ifindex to allow more
    973 	  than one network interface to be used
    974 	* fixed WPA message 2/4 processing not to cancel timeout for TimeoutEvt
    975 	  setting if the packet does not pass MIC verification (e.g., due to
    976 	  incorrect PSK); previously, message 1/4 was not tried again if an
    977 	  invalid message 2/4 was received
    978 	* fixed reconfiguration of RADIUS client retransmission timer when
    979 	  adding a new message to the pending list; previously, timer was not
    980 	  updated at this point and if there was a pending message with long
    981 	  time for the next retry, the new message needed to wait that long for
    982 	  its first retry, too
    983 
    984 2005-01-09 - v0.3.4
    985 	* added support for configuring multiple allowed EAP types for Phase 2
    986 	  authentication (EAP-PEAP, EAP-TTLS)
    987 	* fixed EAPOL-Start processing to trigger WPA reauthentication
    988 	  (previously, only EAPOL authentication was done)
    989 
    990 2005-01-02 - v0.3.3
    991 	* added support for EAP-PEAP in the integrated EAP authenticator
    992 	* added support for EAP-GTC in the integrated EAP authenticator
    993 	* added support for configuring list of EAP methods for Phase 1 so that
    994 	  the integrated EAP authenticator can, e.g., use the wildcard entry
    995 	  for EAP-TLS and EAP-PEAP
    996 	* added support for EAP-TTLS in the integrated EAP authenticator
    997 	* added support for EAP-SIM in the integrated EAP authenticator
    998 	* added support for using hostapd as a RADIUS authentication server
    999 	  with the integrated EAP authenticator taking care of EAP
   1000 	  authentication (new hostapd.conf options: radius_server_clients and
   1001 	  radius_server_auth_port); this is not included in default build; use
   1002 	  CONFIG_RADIUS_SERVER=y in .config to include
   1003 
   1004 2004-12-19 - v0.3.2
   1005 	* removed 'daemonize' configuration file option since it has not really
   1006 	  been used at all for more than year
   1007 	* driver_madwifi: fixed group key setup and added get_ssid method
   1008 	* added support for EAP-MSCHAPv2 in the integrated EAP authenticator
   1009 
   1010 2004-12-12 - v0.3.1
   1011 	* added support for integrated EAP-TLS authentication (new hostapd.conf
   1012 	  variables: ca_cert, server_cert, private_key, private_key_passwd);
   1013 	  this enabled dynamic keying (WPA2/WPA/IEEE 802.1X/WEP) without
   1014 	  external RADIUS server
   1015 	* added support for reading PKCS#12 (PFX) files (as a replacement for
   1016 	  PEM/DER) to get certificate and private key (CONFIG_PKCS12)
   1017 
   1018 2004-12-05 - v0.3.0 (beginning of 0.3.x development releases)
   1019 	* added support for Acct-{Input,Output}-Gigawords
   1020 	* added support for Event-Timestamp (in RADIUS Accounting-Requests)
   1021 	* added support for RADIUS Authentication Client MIB (RFC2618)
   1022 	* added support for RADIUS Accounting Client MIB (RFC2620)
   1023 	* made EAP re-authentication period configurable (eap_reauth_period)
   1024 	* fixed EAPOL reauthentication to trigger WPA/WPA2 reauthentication
   1025 	* fixed EAPOL state machine to stop if STA is removed during
   1026 	  eapol_sm_step(); this fixes at least one segfault triggering bug with
   1027 	  IEEE 802.11i pre-authentication
   1028 	* added support for multiple WPA pre-shared keys (e.g., one for each
   1029 	  client MAC address or keys shared by a group of clients);
   1030 	  new hostapd.conf field wpa_psk_file for setting path to a text file
   1031 	  containing PSKs, see hostapd.wpa_psk for an example
   1032 	* added support for multiple driver interfaces to allow hostapd to be
   1033 	  used with other drivers
   1034 	* added wired authenticator driver interface (driver=wired in
   1035 	  hostapd.conf, see wired.conf for example configuration)
   1036 	* added madwifi driver interface (driver=madwifi in hostapd.conf, see
   1037 	  madwifi.conf for example configuration; Note: include files from
   1038 	  madwifi project is needed for building and a configuration file,
   1039 	  .config, needs to be created in hostapd directory with
   1040 	  CONFIG_DRIVER_MADWIFI=y to include this driver interface in hostapd
   1041 	  build)
   1042 	* fixed an alignment issue that could cause SHA-1 to fail on some
   1043 	  platforms (e.g., Intel ixp425 with a compiler that does not 32-bit
   1044 	  align variables)
   1045 	* fixed RADIUS reconnection after an error in sending interim
   1046 	  accounting packets
   1047 	* added hostapd control interface for external programs and an example
   1048 	  CLI, hostapd_cli (like wpa_cli for wpa_supplicant)
   1049 	* started adding dot11, dot1x, radius MIBs ('hostapd_cli mib',
   1050 	  'hostapd_cli sta <addr>')
   1051 	* finished update from IEEE 802.1X-2001 to IEEE 802.1X-REV (now d11)
   1052 	* added support for strict GTK rekeying (wpa_strict_rekey in
   1053 	  hostapd.conf)
   1054 	* updated IAPP to use UDP port 3517 and multicast address 224.0.1.178
   1055 	  (instead of broadcast) for IAPP ADD-notify (moved from draft 3 to
   1056 	  IEEE 802.11F-2003)
   1057 	* added Prism54 driver interface (driver=prism54 in hostapd.conf;
   1058 	  note: .config needs to be created in hostapd directory with
   1059 	  CONFIG_DRIVER_PRISM54=y to include this driver interface in hostapd
   1060 	  build)
   1061 	* dual-licensed hostapd (GPLv2 and BSD licenses)
   1062 	* fixed RADIUS accounting to generate a new session id for cases where
   1063 	  a station reassociates without first being complete deauthenticated
   1064 	* fixed STA disassociation handler to mark next timeout state to
   1065 	  deauthenticate the station, i.e., skip long wait for inactivity poll
   1066 	  and extra disassociation, if the STA disassociates without
   1067 	  deauthenticating
   1068 	* added integrated EAP authenticator that can be used instead of
   1069 	  external RADIUS authentication server; currently, only EAP-MD5 is
   1070 	  supported, so this cannot yet be used for key distribution; the EAP
   1071 	  method interface is generic, though, so adding new EAP methods should
   1072 	  be straightforward; new hostapd.conf variables: 'eap_authenticator'
   1073 	  and 'eap_user_file'; this obsoletes "minimal authentication server"
   1074 	  ('minimal_eap' in hostapd.conf) which is now removed
   1075 	* added support for FreeBSD and driver interface for the BSD net80211
   1076 	  layer (driver=bsd in hostapd.conf and CONFIG_DRIVER_BSD=y in
   1077 	  .config); please note that some of the required kernel mods have not
   1078 	  yet been committed
   1079 
   1080 2004-07-17 - v0.2.4 (beginning of 0.2.x stable releases)
   1081 	* fixed some accounting cases where Accounting-Start was sent when
   1082 	  IEEE 802.1X port was being deauthorized
   1083 
   1084 2004-06-20 - v0.2.3
   1085 	* modified RADIUS client to re-connect the socket in case of certain
   1086 	  error codes that are generated when a network interface state is
   1087 	  changes (e.g., when IP address changes or the interface is set UP)
   1088 	* fixed couple of cases where EAPOL state for a station was freed
   1089 	  twice causing a segfault for hostapd
   1090 	* fixed couple of bugs in processing WPA deauthentication (freed data
   1091 	  was used)
   1092 
   1093 2004-05-31 - v0.2.2
   1094 	* fixed WPA/WPA2 group rekeying to use key index correctly (GN/GM)
   1095 	* fixed group rekeying to send zero TSC in EAPOL-Key messages to fix
   1096 	  cases where STAs dropped multicast frames as replay attacks
   1097 	* added support for copying RADIUS Attribute 'Class' from
   1098 	  authentication messages into accounting messages
   1099 	* send canned EAP failure if RADIUS server sends Access-Reject without
   1100 	  EAP message (previously, Supplicant was not notified in this case)
   1101 	* fixed mixed WPA-PSK and WPA-EAP mode to work with WPA-PSK (i.e., do
   1102 	  not start EAPOL state machines if the STA selected to use WPA-PSK)
   1103 
   1104 2004-05-06 - v0.2.1
   1105 	* added WPA and IEEE 802.11i/RSN (WPA2) Authenticator functionality
   1106 	  - based on IEEE 802.11i/D10.0 but modified to interoperate with WPA
   1107 	    (i.e., IEEE 802.11i/D3.0)
   1108 	  - supports WPA-only, RSN-only, and mixed WPA/RSN mode
   1109 	  - both WPA-PSK and WPA-RADIUS/EAP are supported
   1110 	  - PMKSA caching and pre-authentication
   1111 	  - new hostapd.conf variables: wpa, wpa_psk, wpa_passphrase,
   1112 	    wpa_key_mgmt, wpa_pairwise, wpa_group_rekey, wpa_gmk_rekey,
   1113 	    rsn_preauth, rsn_preauth_interfaces
   1114 	* fixed interim accounting to remove any pending accounting messages
   1115 	  to the STA before sending a new one
   1116 
   1117 2004-02-15 - v0.2.0
   1118 	* added support for Acct-Interim-Interval:
   1119 	  - draft-ietf-radius-acct-interim-01.txt
   1120 	  - use Acct-Interim-Interval attribute from Access-Accept if local
   1121 	    'radius_acct_interim_interval' is not set
   1122 	  - allow different update intervals for each STA
   1123 	* fixed event loop to call signal handlers only after returning from
   1124 	  the real signal handler
   1125 	* reset sta->timeout_next after successful association to make sure
   1126 	  that the previously registered inactivity timer will not remove the
   1127 	  STA immediately (e.g., if STA deauthenticates and re-associates
   1128 	  before the timer is triggered).
   1129 	* added new hostapd.conf variable, nas_identifier, that can be used to
   1130 	  add an optional RADIUS Attribute, NAS-Identifier, into authentication
   1131 	  and accounting messages
   1132 	* added support for Accounting-On and Accounting-Off messages
   1133 	* fixed accounting session handling to send Accounting-Start only once
   1134 	  per session and not to send Accounting-Stop if the session was not
   1135 	  initialized properly
   1136 	* fixed Accounting-Stop statistics in cases where the message was
   1137 	  previously sent after the kernel entry for the STA (and/or IEEE
   1138 	  802.1X data) was removed
   1139 
   1140 
   1141 Note:
   1142 
   1143 Older changes up to and including v0.1.0 are included in the ChangeLog
   1144 of the Host AP driver.
