- interfaces.
- - Add relog command for reopening log file.
- - Send AP-STA-DISCONNECTED event when an AP disconnects a station
- due to inactivity.

- notification to the STA.
- * Allow AP mode to disconnect STAs based on low ACK condition (when
- the data connection is not working properly, e.g., due to the STA
- going outside the range of the AP). Disabled by default, enable by
- config option disassoc_low_ack.

- - apply WPS config changes to all interfaces that use WPS
- - when an attack is detected on any interface, disable AP PIN on
- all interfaces
- * WPS ER:
- - Show SetSelectedRegistrar events as ctrl_iface events.
- - Add special AP Setup Locked mode to allow read only ER.

- * added preliminary support for IEEE 802.11r RIC processing
- 2009-01-06 - v0.6.7
- * added support for Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)
- (hostapd can now be configured to act as an integrated WPS Registrar
- and provision credentials for WPS Enrollees using PIN and PBC
- methods; external wireless Registrar can configure the AP, but
- external WLAN Manager Registrars are not supported); WPS support can
- be enabled by adding CONFIG_WPS=y into .config and setting the

- TKIP deficiencies
- * updated OpenSSL code for EAP-FAST to use an updated version of the
- session ticket overriding API that was included into the upstream
- OpenSSL 0.9.9 tree on 2008-11-15 (no additional OpenSSL patch is
- needed with that version anymore)
- * changed channel flags configuration to read the information from
- the driver (e.g., via driver_nl80211 when using mac80211) instead of
- using hostapd as the source of the regulatory information (i.e.,
- information from CRDA is now used with mac80211); this allows 5 GHz
- channels to be used with hostapd (if allowed in the current
- regulatory domain)
- * fixed EAP-TLS message processing for the last TLS message if it is
- large enough to require fragmentation (e.g., if a large Session
- Ticket data is included)
- * fixed listen interval configuration for nl80211 drivers

- is enabled in configuration
- * changed EAP-FAST configuration to use separate fields for A-ID and
- A-ID-Info (eap_fast_a_id_info) to allow A-ID to be set to a fixed
- 16-octet len binary value for better interoperability with some peer
- implementations; eap_fast_a_id is now configured as a hex string
- * driver_nl80211: Updated to match the current Linux mac80211 AP mode
- configuration (wireless-testing.git and Linux kernel releases
- starting from 2.6.29)
- 2008-08-10 - v0.6.4
- * added peer identity into EAP-FAST PAC-Opaque and skip Phase 2
- Identity Request if identity is already known

- * copy optional Proxy-State attributes into RADIUS response when acting
- as a RADIUS authentication server
- * fixed EAPOL state machine to handle a case in which no response is
- received from the RADIUS authentication server; previous version
- could have triggered a crash in some cases after a timeout
- * fixed EAP-SIM/AKA realm processing to allow decorated usernames to
- be used
- * added a workaround for EAP-SIM/AKA peers that include incorrect null
- termination in the username
- * fixed EAP-SIM/AKA protected result indication to include AT_COUNTER
- attribute in notification messages only when using fast
- reauthentication
- * fixed EAP-SIM Start response processing for fast reauthentication
- case
- * added support for pending EAP processing in EAP-{PEAP,TTLS,FAST}
- phase 2 to allow EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA to be used as the Phase 2 method
- 2008-01-01 - v0.6.2
- * fixed EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA message parser to validate attribute
- lengths properly to avoid potential crash caused by invalid messages
- * added data structure for storing allocated buffers (struct wpabuf);
- this does not affect hostapd usage, but many of the APIs changed

- versions
- * added support for protecting EAP-AKA/Identity messages with
- AT_CHECKCODE (optional feature in RFC 4187)
- * added support for protected result indication with AT_RESULT_IND for
- EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA (eap_sim_aka_result_ind=1)
- * added support for configuring EAP-TTLS phase 2 non-EAP methods in
- EAP server configuration; previously all four were enabled for every
- phase 2 user, now all four are disabled by default and need to be
- enabled with new method names TTLS-PAP, TTLS-CHAP, TTLS-MSCHAP,
- TTLS-MSCHAPV2
- * removed old debug printing mechanism and the related 'debug'
- parameter in the configuration file; debug verbosity is now set with
- -d (or -dd) command line arguments
- * added support for EAP-IKEv2 (draft-tschofenig-eap-ikev2-15.txt);
- only shared key/password authentication is supported in this version
- 2007-11-24 - v0.6.1
- * added experimental, integrated TLSv1 server implementation with the
- needed X.509/ASN.1/RSA/bignum processing (this can be enabled by

- .config); this can be useful, e.g., if the target system does not
- have a suitable TLS library and a minimal code size is required
- * added support for EAP-FAST server method to the integrated EAP
- server
- * updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
- draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-07.txt)

- pairwise cipher suites to be enabled for WPA and RSN/WPA2
- (note: if wpa_pairwise differs from rsn_pairwise, the driver will
- either need to support this or will have to use the WPA/RSN IEs from
- hostapd; currently, the included madwifi and bsd driver interfaces do
- not have support for this)

- draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-04.txt)
- * hlr_auc_gw: read GSM triplet file into memory and rotate through the
- entries instead of only using the same three triplets every time
- (this does not work properly with tests using multiple clients, but
- provides bit better triplet data for testing a single client; anyway,
- if a better quality triplets are needed, GSM-Milenage should be used
- instead of hardcoded triplet file)
- * fixed EAP-MSCHAPv2 server to use a space between S and M parameters
- in Success Request [Bug 203]

- * fixed PMKSA cache update in the end of successful RSN
- pre-authentication
- * added support for dynamic VLAN configuration (i.e., selecting VLAN-ID
- for each STA based on RADIUS Access-Accept attributes); this requires
- VLAN support from the kernel driver/802.11 stack and this is
- currently only available with Devicescape and test driver interfaces
- * driver_madwifi: fixed configuration of unencrypted modes (plaintext
- and IEEE 802.1X without WEP)
- * removed STAKey handshake since PeerKey handshake has replaced it in
- IEEE 802.11ma and there are no known deployments of STAKey
- * updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
- draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-01.txt)
- * added preliminary implementation of IEEE 802.11w/D1.0 (management
- frame protection)
- (Note: this requires driver support to work properly.)
- (Note2: IEEE 802.11w is an unapproved draft and subject to change.)
- * hlr_auc_gw: added support for GSM-Milenage (for EAP-SIM)
- * hlr_auc_gw: added support for reading per-IMSI Milenage keys and
- parameters from a text file to make it possible to implement proper
- GSM/UMTS authentication server for multiple SIM/USIM cards using
- EAP-SIM/EAP-AKA
- * fixed session timeout processing with drivers that do not use
- ieee802_11.c (e.g., madwifi)
- 2006-08-27 - v0.5.5
- * added 'hostapd_cli new_sta <addr>' command for adding a new STA into

- draft-clancy-emu-eap-shared-secret-00.txt)
- * fixed a segmentation fault when RSN pre-authentication was completed
- successfully [Bug 152]
- 2006-04-27 - v0.5.3
- * do not build nt_password_hash and hlr_auc_gw by default to avoid
- requiring a TLS library for a successful build; these programs can be
- build with 'make nt_password_hash' and 'make hlr_auc_gw'
- * added a new configuration option, eapol_version, that can be used to
- set EAPOL version to 1 (default is 2) to work around broken client
- implementations that drop EAPOL frames which use version number 2
- [Bug 89]
- * added support for EAP-SAKE (no EAP method number allocated yet, so
- this is using the same experimental type 255 as EAP-PSK)
- * fixed EAP-MSCHAPv2 message length validation
- 2006-03-19 - v0.5.2
- * fixed stdarg use in hostapd_logger(): if both stdout and syslog
- logging was enabled, hostapd could trigger a segmentation fault in
- vsyslog on some CPU -- C library combinations
- * moved HLR/AuC gateway implementation for EAP-SIM/AKA into an external
- program to make it easier to use for implementing real SS7 gateway;
- eap_sim_db is not anymore used as a file name for GSM authentication
- triplets; instead, it is path to UNIX domain socket that will be used
- to communicate with the external gateway program (e.g., hlr_auc_gw)
- * added example HLR/AuC gateway implementation, hlr_auc_gw, that uses
- local information (GSM authentication triplets from a text file and
- hardcoded AKA authentication data); this can be used to test EAP-SIM
- and EAP-AKA
- * added Milenage algorithm (example 3GPP AKA algorithm) to hlr_auc_gw
- to make it possible to test EAP-AKA with real USIM cards (this is
- disabled by default; define AKA_USE_MILENAGE when building hlr_auc_gw
- to enable this)
- * driver_madwifi: added support for getting station RSN IE from
- madwifi-ng svn r1453 and newer; this fixes RSN that was apparently
- broken with earlier change (r1357) in the driver
- * changed EAP method registration to use a dynamic list of methods
- instead of a static list generated at build time
- * fixed WPA message 3/4 not to encrypt Key Data field (WPA IE)
- [Bug 125]

- 2005-12-18 - v0.5.0 (beginning of 0.5.x development releases)
- * added experimental STAKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e
- direct link setup (DLS); note: this is disabled by default in both
- build and runtime configuration (can be enabled with CONFIG_STAKEY=y
- and stakey=1)
- * added support for EAP methods to use callbacks to external programs
- by buffering a pending request and processing it after the EAP method
- is ready to continue

- HLR/AuC without blocking hostapd process
- * added support for using EAP-SIM pseudonyms and fast re-authentication

- of plaintext password when using MSCHAP or MSCHAPv2 for
- authentication (hash:<16-octet hex value>); added nt_password_hash
- tool for hashing password to generate NtPasswordHash
- 2005-11-20 - v0.4.7 (beginning of 0.4.x stable releases)
- * driver_wired: fixed EAPOL sending to optionally use PAE group address
- as the destination instead of supplicant MAC address; this is
- disabled by default, but should be enabled with use_pae_group_addr=1
- in configuration file if the wired interface is used by only one
- device at the time (common switch configuration)
- * driver_madwifi: configure driver to use TKIP countermeasures in order
- to get correct behavior (IEEE 802.11 association failing; previously,
- association succeeded, but hostpad forced disassociation immediately)
- * driver_madwifi: added support for madwifi-ng
- 2005-10-27 - v0.4.6
- * added support for replacing user identity from EAP with RADIUS
- User-Name attribute from Access-Accept message, if that is included,
- for the RADIUS accounting messages (e.g., for EAP-PEAP/TTLS to get
- tunneled identity into accounting messages when the RADIUS server
- does not support better way of doing this with Class attribute)
- * driver_madwifi: fixed EAPOL packet receive for configuration where
- ath# is part of a bridge interface
- * added a configuration file and log analyzer script for logwatch
- * fixed EAPOL state machine step function to process all state
- transitions before processing new events; this resolves a race
- condition in which EAPOL-Start message could trigger hostapd to send
- two EAP-Response/Identity frames to the authentication server
- 2005-09-25 - v0.4.5
- * added client CA list to the TLS certificate request in order to make
- it easier for the client to select which certificate to use

- 4-Way Handshake if WPA-PSK is used
- * fixed PMKSA caching for the case where STA (re)associates without
- first disassociating
- 2005-06-12 - v0.4.2
- * EAP-PAX is now registered as EAP type 46
- * fixed EAP-PAX MAC calculation
- * fixed EAP-PAX CK and ICK key derivation

- by using test driver interface without any kernel drivers or network
- cards
- 2005-05-22 - v0.4.1
- * fixed RADIUS server initialization when only auth or acct server

- without disassociation
- * added support for reading additional certificates from PKCS#12 files
- and adding them to the certificate chain
- * fixed RADIUS Class attribute processing to only use Access-Accept
- packets to update Class; previously, other RADIUS authentication
- packets could have cleared Class attribute
- * added support for more than one Class attribute in RADIUS packets
- * added support for verifying certificate revocation list (CRL) when
- using integrated EAP authenticator for EAP-TLS; new hostapd.conf
- options 'check_crl'; CRL must be included in the ca_cert file for now
- 2005-04-25 - v0.4.0 (beginning of 0.4.x development releases)
- * added support for including network information into
- EAP-Request/Identity message (ASCII-0 (nul) in eap_message)
- (e.g., to implement draft-adrange-eap-network-discovery-07.txt)
- * fixed a bug which caused some RSN pre-authentication cases to use
- freed memory and potentially crash hostapd
- * fixed private key loading for cases where passphrase is not set
- * added support for sending TLS alerts and aborting authentication
- when receiving a TLS alert
- * fixed WPA2 to add PMKSA cache entry when using integrated EAP
- authenticator
- * fixed PMKSA caching (EAP authentication was not skipped correctly
- with the new state machine changes from IEEE 802.1X draft)
- * added support for RADIUS over IPv6; own_ip_addr, auth_server_addr,
- and acct_server_addr can now be IPv6 addresses (CONFIG_IPV6=y needs
- to be added to .config to include IPv6 support); for RADIUS server,
- radius_server_ipv6=1 needs to be set in hostapd.conf and addresses
- in RADIUS clients file can then use IPv6 format
- * added experimental support for EAP-PAX
- * replaced hostapd control interface library (hostapd_ctrl.[ch]) with
- the same implementation that wpa_supplicant is using (wpa_ctrl.[ch])
- 2005-02-12 - v0.3.7 (beginning of 0.3.x stable releases)
- 2005-01-23 - v0.3.5

- draft
- * clear accounting data in the driver when starting a new accounting
- session
- * driver_madwifi: filter wireless events based on ifindex to allow more
- than one network interface to be used
- * fixed WPA message 2/4 processing not to cancel timeout for TimeoutEvt
- setting if the packet does not pass MIC verification (e.g., due to
- incorrect PSK); previously, message 1/4 was not tried again if an
- invalid message 2/4 was received
- * fixed reconfiguration of RADIUS client retransmission timer when
- adding a new message to the pending list; previously, timer was not
- updated at this point and if there was a pending message with long
- time for the next retry, the new message needed to wait that long for
- its first retry, too
- 2005-01-09 - v0.3.4
- * added support for configuring multiple allowed EAP types for Phase 2
- authentication (EAP-PEAP, EAP-TTLS)
- * fixed EAPOL-Start processing to trigger WPA reauthentication
- (previously, only EAPOL authentication was done)
- 2005-01-02 - v0.3.3
- * added support for EAP-PEAP in the integrated EAP authenticator
- * added support for EAP-GTC in the integrated EAP authenticator

- the integrated EAP authenticator can, e.g., use the wildcard entry
- for EAP-TLS and EAP-PEAP
- * added support for EAP-TTLS in the integrated EAP authenticator
- * added support for EAP-SIM in the integrated EAP authenticator
- * added support for using hostapd as a RADIUS authentication server
- with the integrated EAP authenticator taking care of EAP
- authentication (new hostapd.conf options: radius_server_clients and
- radius_server_auth_port); this is not included in default build; use
- CONFIG_RADIUS_SERVER=y in .config to include
- 2004-12-19 - v0.3.2
- * removed 'daemonize' configuration file option since it has not really
- been used at all for more than year

- 2004-12-12 - v0.3.1
- * added support for integrated EAP-TLS authentication (new hostapd.conf
- variables: ca_cert, server_cert, private_key, private_key_passwd);
- this enabled dynamic keying (WPA2/WPA/IEEE 802.1X/WEP) without
- external RADIUS server
- * added support for reading PKCS#12 (PFX) files (as a replacement for
- PEM/DER) to get certificate and private key (CONFIG_PKCS12)
- 2004-12-05 - v0.3.0 (beginning of 0.3.x development releases)
- * added support for Acct-{Input,Output}-Gigawords
- * added support for Event-Timestamp (in RADIUS Accounting-Requests)
- * added support for RADIUS Authentication Client MIB (RFC2618)
- * added support for RADIUS Accounting Client MIB (RFC2620)
- * made EAP re-authentication period configurable (eap_reauth_period)
- * fixed EAPOL reauthentication to trigger WPA/WPA2 reauthentication
- * fixed EAPOL state machine to stop if STA is removed during
- eapol_sm_step(); this fixes at least one segfault triggering bug with
- IEEE 802.11i pre-authentication
- * added support for multiple WPA pre-shared keys (e.g., one for each
- client MAC address or keys shared by a group of clients);
- new hostapd.conf field wpa_psk_file for setting path to a text file
- containing PSKs, see hostapd.wpa_psk for an example
- * added support for multiple driver interfaces to allow hostapd to be
- used with other drivers
- * added wired authenticator driver interface (driver=wired in
- hostapd.conf, see wired.conf for example configuration)
- * added madwifi driver interface (driver=madwifi in hostapd.conf, see
- madwifi.conf for example configuration; Note: include files from
- madwifi project is needed for building and a configuration file,
- .config, needs to be created in hostapd directory with
- CONFIG_DRIVER_MADWIFI=y to include this driver interface in hostapd
- build)
- * fixed an alignment issue that could cause SHA-1 to fail on some
- platforms (e.g., Intel ixp425 with a compiler that does not 32-bit
- align variables)
- * fixed RADIUS reconnection after an error in sending interim
- accounting packets
- * added hostapd control interface for external programs and an example
- CLI, hostapd_cli (like wpa_cli for wpa_supplicant)
- * started adding dot11, dot1x, radius MIBs ('hostapd_cli mib',
- 'hostapd_cli sta <addr>')
- * finished update from IEEE 802.1X-2001 to IEEE 802.1X-REV (now d11)

- (instead of broadcast) for IAPP ADD-notify (moved from draft 3 to
- IEEE 802.11F-2003)
- * added Prism54 driver interface (driver=prism54 in hostapd.conf;
- note: .config needs to be created in hostapd directory with
- CONFIG_DRIVER_PRISM54=y to include this driver interface in hostapd
- build)
- * dual-licensed hostapd (GPLv2 and BSD licenses)
- * fixed RADIUS accounting to generate a new session id for cases where
- a station reassociates without first being complete deauthenticated
- * fixed STA disassociation handler to mark next timeout state to
- deauthenticate the station, i.e., skip long wait for inactivity poll
- and extra disassociation, if the STA disassociates without
- deauthenticating
- * added integrated EAP authenticator that can be used instead of
- external RADIUS authentication server; currently, only EAP-MD5 is
- supported, so this cannot yet be used for key distribution; the EAP
- method interface is generic, though, so adding new EAP methods should
- be straightforward; new hostapd.conf variables: 'eap_authenticator'
- and 'eap_user_file'; this obsoletes "minimal authentication server"
- ('minimal_eap' in hostapd.conf) which is now removed
- * added support for FreeBSD and driver interface for the BSD net80211
- layer (driver=bsd in hostapd.conf and CONFIG_DRIVER_BSD=y in
- .config); please note that some of the required kernel mods have not
- yet been committed
- 2004-07-17 - v0.2.4 (beginning of 0.2.x stable releases)
- * fixed some accounting cases where Accounting-Start was sent when
- IEEE 802.1X port was being deauthorized
- 2004-06-20 - v0.2.3
- * modified RADIUS client to re-connect the socket in case of certain
- error codes that are generated when a network interface state is
- changes (e.g., when IP address changes or the interface is set UP)
- * fixed couple of cases where EAPOL state for a station was freed
- twice causing a segfault for hostapd
- * fixed couple of bugs in processing WPA deauthentication (freed data
- was used)
- 2004-05-31 - v0.2.2
- * fixed WPA/WPA2 group rekeying to use key index correctly (GN/GM)
- * fixed group rekeying to send zero TSC in EAPOL-Key messages to fix
- cases where STAs dropped multicast frames as replay attacks
- * added support for copying RADIUS Attribute 'Class' from
- authentication messages into accounting messages
- * send canned EAP failure if RADIUS server sends Access-Reject without
- EAP message (previously, Supplicant was not notified in this case)
- * fixed mixed WPA-PSK and WPA-EAP mode to work with WPA-PSK (i.e., do
- not start EAPOL state machines if the STA selected to use WPA-PSK)
- 2004-05-06 - v0.2.1
- * added WPA and IEEE 802.11i/RSN (WPA2) Authenticator functionality
- - based on IEEE 802.11i/D10.0 but modified to interoperate with WPA
- (i.e., IEEE 802.11i/D3.0)
- - supports WPA-only, RSN-only, and mixed WPA/RSN mode
- - both WPA-PSK and WPA-RADIUS/EAP are supported
- - PMKSA caching and pre-authentication
- - new hostapd.conf variables: wpa, wpa_psk, wpa_passphrase,
- wpa_key_mgmt, wpa_pairwise, wpa_group_rekey, wpa_gmk_rekey,
- rsn_preauth, rsn_preauth_interfaces
- * fixed interim accounting to remove any pending accounting messages
- to the STA before sending a new one
- 2004-02-15 - v0.2.0
- * added support for Acct-Interim-Interval:
- - draft-ietf-radius-acct-interim-01.txt
- - use Acct-Interim-Interval attribute from Access-Accept if local
- 'radius_acct_interim_interval' is not set
- - allow different update intervals for each STA
- * fixed event loop to call signal handlers only after returning from
- the real signal handler
- * reset sta->timeout_next after successful association to make sure
- that the previously registered inactivity timer will not remove the
- STA immediately (e.g., if STA deauthenticates and re-associates
- before the timer is triggered).
- * added new hostapd.conf variable, nas_identifier, that can be used to
- add an optional RADIUS Attribute, NAS-Identifier, into authentication
- and accounting messages
- * added support for Accounting-On and Accounting-Off messages
- * fixed accounting session handling to send Accounting-Start only once
- per session and not to send Accounting-Stop if the session was not
- initialized properly
- * fixed Accounting-Stop statistics in cases where the message was
- previously sent after the kernel entry for the STA (and/or IEEE
- 802.1X data) was removed
- Note:
- Older changes up to and including v0.1.0 are included in the ChangeLog
- of the Host AP driver.
