32012-05-10 - v1.0
4	* bsd: Add support for setting HT values in IFM_MMASK.
5	* Delay STA entry removal until Deauth/Disassoc TX status in AP mode.
6	  This allows the driver to use PS buffering of Deauthentication and
7	  Disassociation frames when the STA is in power save sleep. Only
8	  available with drivers that provide TX status events for Deauth/
9	  Disassoc frames (nl80211).
10	* Drop oldest unknown BSS table entries first. This makes it less
11	  likely to hit connection issues in environments with huge number
12	  of visible APs.
13	* Add systemd support.
14	* Add support for setting the syslog facility from the config file
15	  at build time.
16	* atheros: Add support for IEEE 802.11w configuration.
17	* AP mode: Allow enable HT20 if driver supports it, by setting the
18	  config parameter ieee80211n.
19	* Allow AP mode to disconnect STAs based on low ACK condition (when
20	  the data connection is not working properly, e.g., due to the STA
21	  going outside the range of the AP). Disabled by default, enable by
22	  config option disassoc_low_ack.
23	* nl80211:
24	  - Support GTK rekey offload.
25	  - Support PMKSA candidate events. This adds support for RSN
26	    pre-authentication with nl80211 interface and drivers that handle
27	    roaming internally.
28	* dbus:
29	  - Add a DBus signal for EAP SM requests, emitted on the Interface
30	    object.
31	  - Export max scan ssids supported by the driver as MaxScanSSID.
32	  - Add signal Certification for information about server certification.
33	  - Add BSSExpireAge and BSSExpireCount interface properties and
34	    support set/get, which allows for setting BSS cache expiration age
35	    and expiration scan count.
36	  - Add ConfigFile to AddInterface properties.
37	  - Add Interface.Country property and support to get/set the value.
38	  - Add DBus property CurrentAuthMode.
39	  - P2P DBus API added.
40	  - Emit property changed events (for property BSSs) when adding/
41	    removing BSSs.
42	  - Treat '' in SSIDs of Interface.Scan as a request for broadcast
43	    scan, instead of ignoring it.
44	  - Add DBus getter/setter for FastReauth.
45	  - Raise PropertiesChanged on org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties.
46	* wpa_cli:
47	  - Send AP-STA-DISCONNECTED event when an AP disconnects a station
48	    due to inactivity.
49	  - Make second argument to set command optional. This can be used to
50	    indicate a zero length value.
51	  - Add signal_poll command.
52	  - Add bss_expire_age and bss_expire_count commands to set/get BSS
53	    cache expiration age and expiration scan count.
54	  - Add ability to set scan interval (the time in seconds wpa_s waits
55	    before requesting a new scan after failing to find a suitable
56	    network in scan results) using scan_interval command.
57	  - Add event CTRL-EVENT-ASSOC-REJECT for association rejected.
58	  - Add command get version, that returns wpa_supplicant version string.
59	  - Add command sta_autoconnect for disabling automatic reconnection
60	    on receiving disconnection event.
61	  - Setting bssid parameter to an empty string "" or any can now be
62	    used to clear the bssid_set flag in a network block, i.e., to remove
63	    bssid filtering.
64	  - Add tdls_testing command to add a special testing feature for
65	    changing TDLS behavior. Build param CONFIG_TDLS_TESTING must be
66	    enabled as well.
67	  - For interworking, add wpa_cli commands interworking_select,
68	    interworking_connect, anqp_get, fetch_anqp, and stop_fetch_anqp.
69	  - Many P2P commands were added. See README-P2P.
70	  - Many WPS/WPS ER commands - see WPS/WPS ER sections for details.
71	  - Allow set command to change global config parameters.
72	  - Add log_level command, which can be used to display the current
73	    debugging level and to change the log level during run time.
74	  - Add note command, which can be used to insert notes to the debug
75	    log.
76	  - Add internal line edit implementation. CONFIG_WPA_CLI_EDIT=y
77	    can now be used to build wpa_cli with internal implementation of
78	    line editing and history support. This can be used as a replacement
79	    for CONFIG_READLINE=y.
80	* AP mode: Add max_num_sta config option, which can be used to limit
81	  the number of stations allowed to connect to the AP.
82	* Add WPA_IGNORE_CONFIG_ERRORS build option to continue in case of bad
83	  config file.
84	* wext: Increase scan timeout from 5 to 10 seconds.
85	* Add blacklist command, allowing an external program to
86	  manage the BSS blacklist and display its current contents.
87	* WPS:
88	  - Add wpa_cli wps_pin get command for generating random PINs. This can
89	    be used in a UI to generate a PIN without starting WPS (or P2P)
90	    operation.
91	  - Set RF bands based on driver capabilities, instead of hardcoding
92	    them.
93	  - Add mechanism for indicating non-standard WPS errors.
94	  - Add CONFIG_WPS_REG_DISABLE_OPEN=y option to disable open networks
95	    by default.
96	  - Add wps_ap_pin cli command for wpa_supplicant AP mode.
97	  - Add wps_check_pin cli command for processing PIN from user input.
98	    UIs can use this command to process a PIN entered by a user and to
99	    validate the checksum digit (if present).
100	  - Cancel WPS operation on PBC session overlap detection.
101	  - New wps_cancel command in wpa_cli will cancel a pending WPS
102	    operation.
103	  - wpa_cli action: Add WPS_EVENT_SUCCESS and WPS_EVENT_FAIL handlers.
104	  - Trigger WPS config update on Manufacturer, Model Name, Model
105	    Number, and Serial Number changes.
106	  - Fragment size is now configurable for EAP-WSC peer. Use
107	    wpa_cli set wps_fragment_size <val>.
108	  - Disable AP PIN after 10 consecutive failures. Slow down attacks on
109	    failures up to 10.
110	  - Allow AP to start in Enrollee mode without AP PIN for probing, to
111	    be compatible with Windows 7.
112	  - Add Config Error into WPS-FAIL events to provide more info to the
113	    user on how to resolve the issue.
114	  - Label and Display config methods are not allowed to be enabled
115	    at the same time, since it is unclear which PIN to use if both
116	    methods are advertised.
117	  - When controlling multiple interfaces:
118	     - apply WPS commands to all interfaces configured to use WPS
119	     - apply WPS config changes to all interfaces that use WPS
120	     - when an attack is detected on any interface, disable AP PIN on
121	       all interfaces
122	* WPS ER:
123	  - Add special AP Setup Locked mode to allow read only ER.
124	    ap_setup_locked=2 can now be used to enable a special mode where
125	    WPS ER can learn the current AP settings, but cannot change them.
126	  - Show SetSelectedRegistrar events as ctrl_iface events
127	  - Add wps_er_set_config to enroll a network based on a local
128	    network configuration block instead of having to (re-)learn the
129	    current AP settings with wps_er_learn.
130	  - Allow AP filtering based on IP address, add ctrl_iface event for
131	    learned AP settings, add wps_er_config command to configure an AP.
132	* WPS 2.0: Add support for WPS 2.0 (CONFIG_WPS2)
133	  - Add build option CONFIG_WPS_EXTENSIBILITY_TESTING to enable tool
134	    for testing protocol extensibility.
135	  - Add build option CONFIG_WPS_STRICT to allow disabling of WPS
136	    workarounds.
137	  - Add support for AuthorizedMACs attribute.
138	* TDLS:
139	  - Propogate TDLS related nl80211 capability flags from kernel and
140	    add them as driver capability flags. If the driver doesn't support
141	    capabilities, assume TDLS is supported internally. When TDLS is
142	    explicitly not supported, disable all user facing TDLS operations.
143	  - Allow TDLS to be disabled at runtime (mostly for testing).
144	    Use set tdls_disabled.
145	  - Honor AP TDLS settings that prohibit/allow TDLS.
146	  - Add a special testing feature for changing TDLS behavior. Use
147	    CONFIG_TDLS_TESTING build param to enable. Configure at runtime
148	    with tdls_testing cli command.
149	  - Add support for TDLS 802.11z.
150	* wlantest: Add a tool wlantest for IEEE802.11 protocol testing.
151	  wlantest can be used to capture frames from a monitor interface
152	  for realtime capturing or from pcap files for offline analysis.
153	* Interworking: Support added for 802.11u. Enable in .config with
154	  CONFIG_INTERWORKING. See wpa_supplicant.conf for config parameters
155	  for interworking. wpa_cli commands added to support this are
156	  interworking_select, interworking_connect, anqp_get, fetch_anqp,
157	  and stop_fetch_anqp.
158	* Android: Add build and runtime support for Android wpa_supplicant.
159	* bgscan learn: Add new bgscan that learns BSS information based on
160	  previous scans, and uses that information to dynamically generate
161	  the list of channels for background scans.
162	* Add a new debug message level for excessive information. Use
163	  -ddd to enable.
164	* TLS: Add support for tls_disable_time_checks=1 in client mode.
165	* Internal TLS:
166	  - Add support for TLS v1.1 (RFC 4346). Enable with build parameter
167	    CONFIG_TLSV11.
168	  - Add domainComponent parser for X.509 names.
169	* Linux: Add RFKill support by adding an interface state "disabled".
170	* Reorder some IEs to get closer to IEEE 802.11 standard. Move
171	  WMM into end of Beacon, Probe Resp and (Re)Assoc Resp frames.
172	  Move HT IEs to be later in (Re)Assoc Resp.
173	* Solaris: Add support for wired 802.1X client.
174	* Wi-Fi Direct support. See README-P2P for more information.
175	* Many bugfixes.
176
1772010-04-18 - v0.7.2
178	* nl80211: fixed number of issues with roaming
179	* avoid unnecessary roaming if multiple APs with similar signal
180	  strength are present in scan results
181	* add TLS client events and server probing to ease design of
182	  automatic detection of EAP parameters
183	* add option for server certificate matching (SHA256 hash of the
184	  certificate) instead of trusted CA certificate configuration
185	* bsd: Cleaned up driver wrapper and added various low-level
186	  configuration options
187	* wpa_gui-qt4: do not show too frequent WPS AP available events as
188	  tray messages
189	* TNC: fixed issues with fragmentation
190	* EAP-TNC: add Flags field into fragment acknowledgement (needed to
191	  interoperate with other implementations; may potentially breaks
192	  compatibility with older wpa_supplicant/hostapd versions)
193	* wpa_cli: added option for using a separate process to receive event
194	  messages to reduce latency in showing these
195	  (CFLAGS += -DCONFIG_WPA_CLI_FORK=y in .config to enable this)
196	* maximum BSS table size can now be configured (bss_max_count)
197	* BSSes to be included in the BSS table can be filtered based on
198	  configured SSIDs to save memory (filter_ssids)
199	* fix number of issues with IEEE 802.11r/FT; this version is not
200	  backwards compatible with old versions
201	* nl80211: add support for IEEE 802.11r/FT protocol (both over-the-air
202	  and over-the-DS)
203	* add freq_list network configuration parameter to allow the AP
204	  selection to filter out entries based on the operating channel
205	* add signal strength change events for bgscan; this allows more
206	  dynamic changes to background scanning interval based on changes in
207	  the signal strength with the current AP; this improves roaming within
208	  ESS quite a bit, e.g., with bgscan="simple:30:-45:300" in the network
209	  configuration block to request background scans less frequently when
210	  signal strength remains good and to automatically trigger background
211	  scans whenever signal strength drops noticeably
212	  (this is currently only available with nl80211)
213	* add BSSID and reason code (if available) to disconnect event messages
214	* wpa_gui-qt4: more complete support for translating the GUI with
215	  linguist and add German translation
216	* fix DH padding with internal crypto code (mainly, for WPS)
217	* do not trigger initial scan automatically anymore if there are no
218	  enabled networks
219
2202010-01-16 - v0.7.1
221	* cleaned up driver wrapper API (struct wpa_driver_ops); the new API
222	  is not fully backwards compatible, so out-of-tree driver wrappers
223	  will need modifications
224	* cleaned up various module interfaces
225	* merge hostapd and wpa_supplicant developers' documentation into a
226	  single document
227	* nl80211: use explicit deauthentication to clear cfg80211 state to
228	  avoid issues when roaming between APs
229	* dbus: major design changes in the new D-Bus API
230	  (fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1)
231	* nl80211: added support for IBSS networks
232	* added internal debugging mechanism with backtrace support and memory
233	  allocation/freeing validation, etc. tests (CONFIG_WPA_TRACE=y)
234	* added WPS ER unsubscription command to more cleanly unregister from
235	  receiving UPnP events when ER is terminated
236	* cleaned up AP mode operations to avoid need for virtual driver_ops
237	  wrapper
238	* added BSS table to maintain more complete scan result information
239	  over multiple scans (that may include only partial results)
240	* wpa_gui-qt4: update Peers dialog information more dynamically while
241	  the dialog is kept open
242	* fixed PKCS#12 use with OpenSSL 1.0.0
243	* driver_wext: Added cfg80211-specific optimization to avoid some
244	  unnecessary scans and to speed up association
245
2462009-11-21 - v0.7.0
247	* increased wpa_cli ping interval to 5 seconds and made this
248	  configurable with a new command line options (-G<seconds>)
249	* fixed scan buffer processing with WEXT to handle up to 65535
250	  byte result buffer (previously, limited to 32768 bytes)
251	* allow multiple driver wrappers to be specified on command line
252	  (e.g., -Dnl80211,wext); the first one that is able to initialize the
253	  interface will be used
254	* added support for multiple SSIDs per scan request to optimize
255	  scan_ssid=1 operations in ap_scan=1 mode (i.e., search for hidden
256	  SSIDs); this requires driver support and can currently be used only
257	  with nl80211
258	* added support for WPS USBA out-of-band mechanism with USB Flash
259	  Drives (UFD) (CONFIG_WPS_UFD=y)
260	* driver_ndis: add PAE group address to the multicast address list to
261	  fix wired IEEE 802.1X authentication
262	* fixed IEEE 802.11r key derivation function to match with the standard
263	  (note: this breaks interoperability with previous version) [Bug 303]
264	* added better support for drivers that allow separate authentication
265	  and association commands (e.g., mac80211-based Linux drivers with
266	  nl80211; SME in wpa_supplicant); this allows over-the-air FT protocol
267	  to be used (IEEE 802.11r)
268	* fixed SHA-256 based key derivation function to match with the
269	  standard when using CCMP (for IEEE 802.11r and IEEE 802.11w)
270	  (note: this breaks interoperability with previous version) [Bug 307]
271	* use shared driver wrapper files with hostapd
272	* added AP mode functionality (CONFIG_AP=y) with mode=2 in the network
273	  block; this can be used for open and WPA2-Personal networks
274	  (optionally, with WPS); this links in parts of hostapd functionality
275	  into wpa_supplicant
276	* wpa_gui-qt4: added new Peers dialog to show information about peers
277	  (other devices, including APs and stations, etc. in the neighborhood)
278	* added support for WPS External Registrar functionality (configure APs
279	  and enroll new devices); can be used with wpa_gui-qt4 Peers dialog
280	  and wpa_cli commands wps_er_start, wps_er_stop, wps_er_pin,
281	  wps_er_pbc, wps_er_learn
282	  (this can also be used with a new 'none' driver wrapper if no
283	  wireless device or IEEE 802.1X on wired is needed)
284	* driver_nl80211: multiple updates to provide support for new Linux
285	  nl80211/mac80211 functionality
286	* updated management frame protection to use IEEE Std 802.11w-2009
287	* fixed number of small WPS issues and added workarounds to
288	  interoperate with common deployed broken implementations
289	* added support for NFC out-of-band mechanism with WPS
290	* driver_ndis: fixed wired IEEE 802.1X authentication with PAE group
291	  address frames
292	* added preliminary support for IEEE 802.11r RIC processing
293	* added support for specifying subset of enabled frequencies to scan
294	  (scan_freq option in the network configuration block); this can speed
295	  up scanning process considerably if it is known that only a small
296	  subset of channels is actually used in the network (this is currently
297	  supported only with -Dnl80211)
298	* added a workaround for race condition between receiving the
299	  association event and the following EAPOL-Key
300	* added background scan and roaming infrastructure to allow
301	  network-specific optimizations to be used to improve roaming within
302	  an ESS (same SSID)
303	* added new DBus interface (fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1)
304
3052009-01-06 - v0.6.7
306	* added support for Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)
307	  (wpa_supplicant can now be configured to act as a WPS Enrollee to
308	  enroll credentials for a network using PIN and PBC methods; in
309	  addition, wpa_supplicant can act as a wireless WPS Registrar to
310	  configure an AP); WPS support can be enabled by adding CONFIG_WPS=y
311	  into .config and setting the runtime configuration variables in
312	  wpa_supplicant.conf (see WPS section in the example configuration
313	  file); new wpa_cli commands wps_pin, wps_pbc, and wps_reg are used to
314	  manage WPS negotiation; see README-WPS for more details
315	* added support for EAP-AKA' (draft-arkko-eap-aka-kdf)
316	* added support for using driver_test over UDP socket
317	* fixed PEAPv0 Cryptobinding interoperability issue with Windows Server
318	  2008 NPS; optional cryptobinding is now enabled (again) by default
319	* fixed PSK editing in wpa_gui
320	* changed EAP-GPSK to use the IANA assigned EAP method type 51
321	* added a Windows installer that includes WinPcap and all the needed
322	  DLLs; in addition, it set up the registry automatically so that user
323	  will only need start wpa_gui to get prompted to start the wpasvc
324	  servide and add a new interface if needed through wpa_gui dialog
325	* updated management frame protection to use IEEE 802.11w/D7.0
326
3272008-11-23 - v0.6.6
328	* added Milenage SIM/USIM emulator for EAP-SIM/EAP-AKA
329	  (can be used to simulate test SIM/USIM card with a known private key;
330	  enable with CONFIG_SIM_SIMULATOR=y/CONFIG_USIM_SIMULATOR=y in .config
331	  and password="Ki:OPc"/password="Ki:OPc:SQN" in network configuration)
332	* added a new network configuration option, wpa_ptk_rekey, that can be
333	  used to enforce frequent PTK rekeying, e.g., to mitigate some attacks
334	  against TKIP deficiencies
335	* added an optional mitigation mechanism for certain attacks against
336	  TKIP by delaying Michael MIC error reports by a random amount of time
337	  between 0 and 60 seconds; this can be enabled with a build option
338	  CONFIG_DELAYED_MIC_ERROR_REPORT=y in .config
339	* fixed EAP-AKA to use RES Length field in AT_RES as length in bits,
340	  not bytes
341	* updated OpenSSL code for EAP-FAST to use an updated version of the
342	  session ticket overriding API that was included into the upstream
343	  OpenSSL 0.9.9 tree on 2008-11-15 (no additional OpenSSL patch is
344	  needed with that version anymore)
345	* updated userspace MLME instructions to match with the current Linux
346	  mac80211 implementation; please also note that this can only be used
347	  with driver_nl80211.c (the old code from driver_wext.c was removed)
348	* added support (Linux only) for RoboSwitch chipsets (often found in
349	  consumer grade routers); driver interface 'roboswitch'
350	* fixed canceling of PMKSA caching when using drivers that generate
351	  RSN IE and refuse to drop PMKIDs that wpa_supplicant does not know
352	  about
353
3542008-11-01 - v0.6.5
355	* added support for SHA-256 as X.509 certificate digest when using the
356	  internal X.509/TLSv1 implementation
357	* updated management frame protection to use IEEE 802.11w/D6.0
358	* added support for using SHA256-based stronger key derivation for WPA2
359	  (IEEE 802.11w)
360	* fixed FT (IEEE 802.11r) authentication after a failed association to
361	  use correct FTIE
362	* added support for configuring Phase 2 (inner/tunneled) authentication
363	  method with wpa_gui-qt4
364
3652008-08-10 - v0.6.4
366	* added support for EAP Sequences in EAP-FAST Phase 2
367	* added support for using TNC with EAP-FAST
368	* added driver_ps3 for the PS3 Linux wireless driver
369	* added support for optional cryptobinding with PEAPv0
370	* fixed the OpenSSL patches (0.9.8g and 0.9.9) for EAP-FAST to
371	  allow fallback to full handshake if server rejects PAC-Opaque
372	* added fragmentation support for EAP-TNC
373	* added support for parsing PKCS #8 formatted private keys into the
374	  internal TLS implementation (both PKCS #1 RSA key and PKCS #8
375	  encapsulated RSA key can now be used)
376	* added option of using faster, but larger, routines in the internal
377	  LibTomMath (for internal TLS implementation) to speed up DH and RSA
378	  calculations (CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH_FAST=y)
379	* fixed race condition between disassociation event and group key
380	  handshake to avoid getting stuck in incorrect state [Bug 261]
381	* fixed opportunistic key caching (proactive_key_caching)
382
3832008-02-22 - v0.6.3
384	* removed 'nai' and 'eappsk' network configuration variables that were
385	  previously used for configuring user identity and key for EAP-PSK,
386	  EAP-PAX, EAP-SAKE, and EAP-GPSK. 'identity' field is now used as the
387	  replacement for 'nai' (if old configuration used a separate
388	  'identity' value, that would now be configured as
389	  'anonymous_identity'). 'password' field is now used as the
390	  replacement for 'eappsk' (it can also be set using hexstring to
391	  present random binary data)
392	* removed '-w' command line parameter (wait for interface to be added,
393	  if needed); cleaner way of handling this functionality is to use an
394	  external mechanism (e.g., hotplug scripts) that start wpa_supplicant
395	  when an interface is added
396	* updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D9.0
397	* added ctrl_iface monitor event (CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-RESULTS) for
398	  indicating when new scan results become available
399	* added new ctrl_iface command, BSS, to allow scan results to be
400	  fetched without hitting the message size limits (this command
401	  can be used to iterate through the scan results one BSS at the time)
402	* fixed EAP-SIM not to include AT_NONCE_MT and AT_SELECTED_VERSION
403	  attributes in EAP-SIM Start/Response when using fast reauthentication
404	* fixed EAPOL not to end up in infinite loop when processing dynamic
405	  WEP keys with IEEE 802.1X
406	* fixed problems in getting NDIS events from WMI on Windows 2000
407
4082008-01-01 - v0.6.2
409	* added support for Makefile builds to include debug-log-to-a-file
410	  functionality (CONFIG_DEBUG_FILE=y and -f<path> on command line)
411	* fixed EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA message parser to validate attribute
412	  lengths properly to avoid potential crash caused by invalid messages
413	* added data structure for storing allocated buffers (struct wpabuf);
414	  this does not affect wpa_supplicant usage, but many of the APIs
415	  changed and various interfaces (e.g., EAP) is not compatible with old
416	  versions
417	* added support for protecting EAP-AKA/Identity messages with
418	  AT_CHECKCODE (optional feature in RFC 4187)
419	* added support for protected result indication with AT_RESULT_IND for
420	  EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA (phase1="result_ind=1")
421	* added driver_wext workaround for race condition between scanning and
422	  association with drivers that take very long time to scan all
423	  channels (e.g., madwifi with dual-band cards); wpa_supplicant is now
424	  using a longer hardcoded timeout for the scan if the driver supports
425	  notifications for scan completion (SIOCGIWSCAN event); this helps,
426	  e.g., in cases where wpa_supplicant and madwifi driver ended up in
427	  loop where the driver did not even try to associate
428	* stop EAPOL timer tick when no timers are in use in order to reduce
429	  power consumption (no need to wake up the process once per second)
430	  [Bug 237]
431	* added support for privilege separation (run only minimal part of
432	  wpa_supplicant functionality as root and rest as unprivileged,
433	  non-root process); see 'Privilege separation' in README for details;
434	  this is disabled by default and can be enabled with CONFIG_PRIVSEP=y
435	  in .config
436	* changed scan results data structure to include all information
437	  elements to make it easier to support new IEs; old get_scan_result()
438	  driver_ops is still supported for backwards compatibility (results
439	  are converted internally to the new format), but all drivers should
440	  start using the new get_scan_results2() to make them more likely to
441	  work with new features
442	* Qt4 version of wpa_gui (wpa_gui-qt4 subdirectory) is now native Qt4
443	  application, i.e., it does not require Qt3Support anymore; Windows
444	  binary of wpa_gui.exe is now from this directory and only requires
445	  QtCore4.dll and QtGui4.dll libraries
446	* updated Windows binary build to use Qt 4.3.3 and made Qt DLLs
447	  available as a separate package to make wpa_gui installation easier:
448	  http://w1.fi/wpa_supplicant/qt4/wpa_gui-qt433-windows-dll.zip
449	* added support for EAP-IKEv2 (draft-tschofenig-eap-ikev2-15.txt);
450	  only shared key/password authentication is supported in this version
451
4522007-11-24 - v0.6.1
453	* added support for configuring password as NtPasswordHash
454	  (16-byte MD4 hash of password) in hash:<32 hex digits> format
455	* added support for fallback from abbreviated TLS handshake to
456	  full handshake when using EAP-FAST (e.g., due to an expired
457	  PAC-Opaque)
458	* updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
459	  draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-07.txt)
460	* added support for drivers that take care of RSN 4-way handshake
461	  internally (WPA_DRIVER_FLAGS_4WAY_HANDSHAKE in get_capa flags and
462	  WPA_ALG_PMK in set_key)
463	* added an experimental port for Mac OS X (CONFIG_DRIVER_OSX=y in
464	  .config); this version supports only ap_scan=2 mode and allow the
465	  driver to take care of the 4-way handshake
466	* fixed a buffer overflow in parsing TSF from scan results when using
467	  driver_wext.c with a driver that includes the TSF (e.g., iwl4965)
468	  [Bug 232]
469	* updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D8.0
470	* fixed an integer overflow issue in the ASN.1 parser used by the
471	  (experimental) internal TLS implementation to avoid a potential
472	  buffer read overflow
473	* fixed a race condition with -W option (wait for a control interface
474	  monitor before starting) that could have caused the first messages to
475	  be lost
476	* added support for processing TNCC-TNCS-Messages to report
477	  recommendation (allow/none/isolate) when using TNC [Bug 243]
478
4792007-05-28 - v0.6.0
480	* added network configuration parameter 'frequency' for setting
481	  initial channel for IBSS (adhoc) networks
482	* added experimental IEEE 802.11r/D6.0 support
483	* updated EAP-SAKE to RFC 4763 and the IANA-allocated EAP type 48
484	* updated EAP-PSK to use the IANA-allocated EAP type 47
485	* fixed EAP-PAX key derivation
486	* fixed EAP-PSK bit ordering of the Flags field
487	* fixed EAP-PEAP/TTLS/FAST to use the correct EAP identifier in
488	  tunnelled identity request (previously, the identifier from the outer
489	  method was used, not the tunnelled identifier which could be
490	  different)
491	* added support for fragmentation of outer TLS packets during Phase 2
492	  of EAP-PEAP/TTLS/FAST
493	* fixed EAP-TTLS AVP parser processing for too short AVP lengths
494	* added support for EAP-FAST authentication with inner methods that
495	  generate MSK (e.g., EAP-MSCHAPv2 that was previously only supported
496	  for PAC provisioning)
497	* added support for authenticated EAP-FAST provisioning
498	* added support for configuring maximum number of EAP-FAST PACs to
499	  store in a PAC list (fast_max_pac_list_len=<max> in phase1 string)
500	* added support for storing EAP-FAST PACs in binary format
501	  (fast_pac_format=binary in phase1 string)
502	* fixed dbus ctrl_iface to validate message interface before
503	  dispatching to avoid a possible segfault [Bug 190]
504	* fixed PeerKey key derivation to use the correct PRF label
505	* updated Windows binary build to link against OpenSSL 0.9.8d and
506	  added support for EAP-FAST
507	* updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
508	  draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-04.txt)
509	* fixed EAP-AKA Notification processing to allow Notification to be
510	  processed after AKA Challenge response has been sent
511	* updated to use IEEE 802.11w/D2.0 for management frame protection
512	  (still experimental)
513	* fixed EAP-TTLS implementation not to crash on use of freed memory
514	  if TLS library initialization fails
515	* added support for EAP-TNC (Trusted Network Connect)
516	  (this version implements the EAP-TNC method and EAP-TTLS changes
517	  needed to run two methods in sequence (IF-T) and the IF-IMC and
518	  IF-TNCCS interfaces from TNCC)
519
5202006-11-24 - v0.5.6
521	* added experimental, integrated TLSv1 client implementation with the
522	  needed X.509/ASN.1/RSA/bignum processing (this can be enabled by
523	  setting CONFIG_TLS=internal and CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH=y in
524	  .config); this can be useful, e.g., if the target system does not
525	  have a suitable TLS library and a minimal code size is required
526	  (total size of this internal TLS/crypto code is bit under 50 kB on
527	  x86 and the crypto code is shared by rest of the supplicant so some
528	  of it was already required; TLSv1/X.509/ASN.1/RSA added about 25 kB)
529	* removed STAKey handshake since PeerKey handshake has replaced it in
530	  IEEE 802.11ma and there are no known deployments of STAKey
531	* updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
532	  draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-01.txt)
533	* added preliminary implementation of IEEE 802.11w/D1.0 (management
534	  frame protection)
535	  (Note: this requires driver support to work properly.)
536	  (Note2: IEEE 802.11w is an unapproved draft and subject to change.)
537	* fixed Windows named pipes ctrl_iface to not stop listening for
538	  commands if client program opens a named pipe and closes it
539	  immediately without sending a command
540	* fixed USIM PIN status determination for the case that PIN is not
541	  needed (this allows EAP-AKA to be used with USIM cards that do not
542	  use PIN)
543	* added support for reading 3G USIM AID from EF_DIR to allow EAP-AKA to
544	  be used with cards that do not support file selection based on
545	  partial AID
546	* added support for matching the subjectAltName of the authentication
547	  server certificate against multiple name components (e.g.,
548	  altsubject_match="DNS:server.example.com;DNS:server2.example.com")
549	* fixed EAP-SIM/AKA key derivation for re-authentication case (only
550	  affects IEEE 802.1X with dynamic WEP keys)
551	* changed ctrl_iface network configuration 'get' operations to not
552	  return password/key material; if these fields are requested, "*"
553	  will be returned if the password/key is set, but the value of the
554	  parameter is not exposed
555
5562006-08-27 - v0.5.5
557	* added support for building Windows version with UNICODE defined
558	  (wide-char functions)
559	* driver_ndis: fixed static WEP configuration to avoid race condition
560	  issues with some NDIS drivers between association and setting WEP
561	  keys
562	* driver_ndis: added validation for IELength value in scan results to
563	  avoid crashes when using buggy NDIS drivers [Bug 165]
564	* fixed Release|Win32 target in the Visual Studio project files
565	  (previously, only Debug|Win32 target was set properly)
566	* changed control interface API call wpa_ctrl_pending() to allow it to
567	  return -1 on error (e.g., connection lost); control interface clients
568	  will need to make sure that they verify that the value is indeed >0
569	  when determining whether there are pending messages
570	* added an alternative control interface backend for Windows targets:
571	  Named Pipe (CONFIG_CTRL_IFACE=named_pipe); this is now the default
572	  control interface mechanism for Windows builds (previously, UDP to
573	  localhost was used)
574	* changed ctrl_interface configuration for UNIX domain sockets:
575	  - deprecated ctrl_interface_group variable (it may be removed in
576	    future versions)
577	  - allow both directory and group be configured with ctrl_interface
578	    in following format: DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=wheel
579	  - ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant is still supported for the
580	    case when group is not changed
581	* added support for controlling more than one interface per process in
582	  Windows version
583	* added a workaround for a case where the AP is using unknown address
584	  (e.g., MAC address of the wired interface) as the source address for
585	  EAPOL-Key frames; previously, that source address was used as the
586	  destination for EAPOL-Key frames and in key derivation; now, BSSID is
587	  used even if the source address does not match with it
588	  (this resolves an interoperability issue with Thomson SpeedTouch 580)
589	* added a workaround for UDP-based control interface (which was used in
590	  Windows builds before this release) to prevent packets with forged
591	  addresses from being accepted as local control requests
592	* removed ndis_events.cpp and possibility of using external
593	  ndis_events.exe; C version (ndis_events.c) is fully functional and
594	  there is no desire to maintain two separate versions of this
595	  implementation
596	* ndis_events: Changed NDIS event notification design to use WMI to
597	  learn the adapter description through Win32_PnPEntity class; this
598	  should fix some cases where the adapter name was not recognized
599	  correctly (e.g., with some USB WLAN adapters, e.g., Ralink RT2500
600	  USB) [Bug 113]
601	* fixed selection of the first network in ap_scan=2 mode; previously,
602	  wpa_supplicant could get stuck in SCANNING state when only the first
603	  network for enabled (e.g., after 'wpa_cli select_network 0')
604	* winsvc: added support for configuring ctrl_interface parameters in
605	  registry (ctrl_interface string value in
606	  HKLM\SOFTWARE\wpa_supplicant\interfaces\0000 key); this new value is
607	  required to enable control interface (previously, this was hardcoded
608	  to be enabled)
609	* allow wpa_gui subdirectory to be built with both Qt3 and Qt4
610	* converted wpa_gui-qt4 subdirectory to use Qt4 specific project format
611
6122006-06-20 - v0.5.4
613	* fixed build with CONFIG_STAKEY=y [Bug 143]
614	* added support for doing MLME (IEEE 802.11 management frame
615	  processing) in wpa_supplicant when using Devicescape IEEE 802.11
616	  stack (wireless-dev.git tree)
617	* added a new network block configuration option, fragment_size, to
618	  configure the maximum EAP fragment size
619	* driver_ndis: Disable WZC automatically for the selected interface to
620	  avoid conflicts with two programs trying to control the radio; WZC
621	  will be re-enabled (if it was enabled originally) when wpa_supplicant
622	  is terminated
623	* added an experimental TLSv1 client implementation
624	  (CONFIG_TLS=internal) that can be used instead of an external TLS
625	  library, e.g., to reduce total size requirement on systems that do
626	  not include any TLS library by default (this is not yet complete;
627	  basic functionality is there, but certificate validation is not yet
628	  included)
629	* added PeerKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e
630	  direct link setup (DLS) to replace STAKey handshake
631	* fixed WPA PSK update through ctrl_iface for the case where the old
632	  PSK was derived from an ASCII passphrase and the new PSK is set as
633	  a raw PSK (hex string)
634	* added new configuration option for identifying which network block
635	  was used (id_str in wpa_supplicant.conf; included on
636	  WPA_EVENT_CONNECT monitor event and as WPA_ID_STR environmental
637	  variable in wpa_cli action scripts; in addition WPA_ID variable is
638	  set to the current unique identifier that wpa_supplicant assigned
639	  automatically for the network and that can be used with
640	  GET_NETWORK/SET_NETWORK ctrl_iface commands)
641	* wpa_cli action script is now called only when the connect/disconnect
642	  status changes or when associating with a different network
643	* fixed configuration parser not to remove CCMP from group cipher list
644	  if WPA-None (adhoc) is used (pairwise=NONE in that case)
645	* fixed integrated NDIS events processing not to hang the process due
646	  to a missed change in eloop_win.c API in v0.5.3 [Bug 155]
647	* added support for EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK,
648	  draft-clancy-emu-eap-shared-secret-00.txt)
649	* added Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 solution and project files for
650	  build wpa_supplicant for Windows (see vs2005 subdirectory)
651	* eloop_win: fixed unregistration of Windows events
652	* l2_packet_winpcap: fixed a deadlock in deinitializing l2_packet
653	  at the end of RSN pre-authentication and added unregistration of
654	  a Windows event to avoid getting eloop_win stuck with an invalid
655	  handle
656	* driver_ndis: added support for selecting AP based on BSSID
657	* added new environmental variable for wpa_cli action scripts:
658	  WPA_CTRL_DIR is the current control interface directory
659	* driver_ndis: added support for using NDISUIO instead of WinPcap for
660	  OID set/query operations (CONFIG_USE_NDISUIO=y in .config); with new
661	  l2_packet_ndis (CONFIG_L2_PACKET=ndis), this can be used to build
662	  wpa_supplicant without requiring WinPcap; note that using NDISUIO
663	  requires that WZC is disabled (net stop wzcsvc) since NDISUIO allows
664	  only one application to open the device
665	* changed NDIS driver naming to only include device GUID, e.g.,
666	  {7EE3EFE5-C165-472F-986D-F6FBEDFE8C8D}, instead of including WinPcap
667	  specific \Device\NPF_ prefix before the GUID; the prefix is still
668	  allowed for backwards compatibility, but it is not required anymore
669	  when specifying the interface
670	* driver_ndis: re-initialize driver interface is the adapter is removed
671	  and re-inserted [Bug 159]
672	* driver_madwifi: fixed TKIP and CCMP sequence number configuration on
673	  big endian hosts [Bug 146]
674
6752006-04-27 - v0.5.3
676	* fixed EAP-GTC response to include correct user identity when run as
677	  phase 2 method of EAP-FAST (i.e., EAP-FAST did not work in v0.5.2)
678	* driver_ndis: Fixed encryption mode configuration for unencrypted
679	  networks (some NDIS drivers ignored this, but others, e.g., Broadcom,
680	  refused to associate with open networks) [Bug 106]
681	* driver_ndis: use BSSID OID polling to detect when IBSS network is
682	  formed even when ndis_events code is included since some NDIS drivers
683	  do not generate media connect events in IBSS mode
684	* config_winreg: allow global ctrl_interface parameter to be configured
685	  in Windows registry
686	* config_winreg: added support for saving configuration data into
687	  Windows registry
688	* added support for controlling network device operational state
689	  (dormant/up) for Linux 2.6.17 to improve DHCP processing (see
690	  http://www.flamewarmaster.de/software/dhcpclient/ for a DHCP client
691	  that can use this information)
692	* driver_wext: added support for WE-21 change to SSID configuration
693	* driver_wext: fixed privacy configuration for static WEP keys mode
694	  [Bug 140]
695	* added an optional driver_ops callback for MLME-SETPROTECTION.request
696	  primitive
697	* added support for EAP-SAKE (no EAP method number allocated yet, so
698	  this is using the same experimental type 255 as EAP-PSK)
699	* added support for dynamically loading EAP methods (.so files) instead
700	  of requiring them to be statically linked in; this is disabled by
701	  default (see CONFIG_DYNAMIC_EAP_METHODS in defconfig for information
702	  on how to use this)
703
7042006-03-19 - v0.5.2
705	* do not try to use USIM APDUs when initializing PC/SC for SIM card
706	  access for a network that has not enabled EAP-AKA
707	* fixed EAP phase 2 Nak for EAP-{PEAP,TTLS,FAST} (this was broken in
708	  v0.5.1 due to the new support for expanded EAP types)
709	* added support for generating EAP Expanded Nak
710	* try to fetch scan results once before requesting new scan when
711	  starting up in ap_scan=1 mode (this can speed up initial association
712	  a lot with, e.g., madwifi-ng driver)
713	* added support for receiving EAPOL frames from a Linux bridge
714	  interface (-bbr0 on command line)
715	* fixed EAPOL re-authentication for sessions that used PMKSA caching
716	* changed EAP method registration to use a dynamic list of methods
717	  instead of a static list generated at build time
718	* fixed PMKSA cache deinitialization not to use freed memory when
719	  removing PMKSA entries
720	* fixed a memory leak in EAP-TTLS re-authentication
721	* reject WPA/WPA2 message 3/4 if it does not include any valid
722	  WPA/RSN IE
723	* driver_wext: added fallback to use SIOCSIWENCODE for setting auth_alg
724	  if the driver does not support SIOCSIWAUTH
725
7262006-01-29 - v0.5.1
727	* driver_test: added better support for multiple APs and STAs by using
728	  a directory with sockets that include MAC address for each device in
729	  the name (driver_param=test_dir=/tmp/test)
730	* added support for EAP expanded type (vendor specific EAP methods)
731	* added AP_SCAN command into ctrl_iface so that ap_scan configuration
732	  option can be changed if needed
733	* wpa_cli/wpa_gui: skip non-socket files in control directory when
734	  using UNIX domain sockets; this avoids selecting an incorrect
735	  interface (e.g., a PID file could be in this directory, even though
736	  use of this directory for something else than socket files is not
737	  recommended)
738	* fixed TLS library deinitialization after RSN pre-authentication not
739	  to disable TLS library for normal authentication
740	* driver_wext: Remove null-termination from SSID length if the driver
741	  used it; some Linux drivers do this and they were causing problems in
742	  wpa_supplicant not finding matching configuration block. This change
743	  would break a case where the SSID actually ends in '\0', but that is
744	  not likely to happen in real use.
745	* fixed PMKSA cache processing not to trigger deauthentication if the
746	  current PMKSA cache entry is replaced with a valid new entry
747	* fixed PC/SC initialization for ap_scan != 1 modes (this fixes
748	  EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA with real SIM/USIM card when using ap_scan=0 or
749	  ap_scan=2)
750
7512005-12-18 - v0.5.0 (beginning of 0.5.x development releases)
752	* added experimental STAKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e
753	  direct link setup (DLS); note: this is disabled by default in both
754	  build and runtime configuration (can be enabled with CONFIG_STAKEY=y
755	  and stakey=1)
756	* fixed EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA pseudonym and fast re-authentication to
757	  decrypt AT_ENCR_DATA attributes correctly
758	* fixed EAP-AKA to allow resynchronization within the same session
759	* made code closer to ANSI C89 standard to make it easier to port to
760	  other C libraries and compilers
761	* started moving operating system or C library specific functions into
762	  wrapper functions defined in os.h and implemented in os_*.c to make
763	  code more portable
764	* wpa_supplicant can now be built with Microsoft Visual C++
765	  (e.g., with the freely available Toolkit 2003 version or Visual
766	  C++ 2005 Express Edition and Platform SDK); see nmake.mak for an
767	  example makefile for nmake
768	* added support for using Windows registry for command line parameters
769	  (CONFIG_MAIN=main_winsvc) and configuration data
770	  (CONFIG_BACKEND=winreg); see win_example.reg for an example registry
771	  contents; this version can be run both as a Windows service and as a
772	  normal application; 'wpasvc.exe app' to start as applicant,
773	  'wpasvc.exe reg <full path to wpasvc.exe>' to register a service,
774	  'net start wpasvc' to start the service, 'wpasvc.exe unreg' to
775	  unregister a service
776	* made it possible to link ndis_events.exe functionality into
777	  wpa_supplicant.exe by defining CONFIG_NDIS_EVENTS_INTEGRATED
778	* added better support for multiple control interface backends
779	  (CONFIG_CTRL_IFACE option); currently, 'unix' and 'udp' are supported
780	* fixed PC/SC code to use correct length for GSM AUTH command buffer
781	  and to not use pioRecvPci with SCardTransmit() calls; these were not
782	  causing visible problems with pcsc-lite, but Windows Winscard.dll
783	  refused the previously used parameters; this fixes EAP-SIM and
784	  EAP-AKA authentication using SIM/USIM card under Windows
785	* added new event loop implementation for Windows using
786	  WaitForMultipleObject() instead of select() in order to allow waiting
787	  for non-socket objects; this can be selected with
788	  CONFIG_ELOOP=eloop_win in .config
789	* added support for selecting l2_packet implementation in .config
790	  (CONFIG_L2_PACKET; following options are available now: linux, pcap,
791	  winpcap, freebsd, none)
792	* added new l2_packet implementation for WinPcap
793	  (CONFIG_L2_PACKET=winpcap) that uses a separate receive thread to
794	  reduce latency in EAPOL receive processing from about 100 ms to about
795	  3 ms
796	* added support for EAP-FAST key derivation using other ciphers than
797	  RC4-128-SHA for authentication and AES128-SHA for provisioning
798	* added support for configuring CA certificate as DER file and as a
799	  configuration blob
800	* fixed private key configuration as configuration blob and added
801	  support for using PKCS#12 as a blob
802	* tls_gnutls: added support for using PKCS#12 files; added support for
803	  session resumption
804	* added support for loading trusted CA certificates from Windows
805	  certificate store: ca_cert="cert_store://<name>", where <name> is
806	  likely CA (Intermediate CA certificates) or ROOT (root certificates)
807	* added C version of ndis_events.cpp and made it possible to build this
808	  with MinGW so that CONFIG_NDIS_EVENTS_INTEGRATED can be used more
809	  easily on cross-compilation builds
810	* added wpasvc.exe into Windows binary release; this is an alternative
811	  version of wpa_supplicant.exe with configuration backend using
812	  Windows registry and with the entry point designed to run as a
813	  Windows service
814	* integrated ndis_events.exe functionality into wpa_supplicant.exe and
815	  wpasvc.exe and removed this additional tool from the Windows binary
816	  release since it is not needed anymore
817	* load winscard.dll functions dynamically when building with MinGW
818	  since MinGW does not yet include winscard library
819
8202005-11-20 - v0.4.7 (beginning of 0.4.x stable releases)
821	* l2_packet_pcap: fixed wired IEEE 802.1X authentication with libpcap
822	  and WinPcap to receive frames sent to PAE group address
823	* disable EAP state machine when IEEE 802.1X authentication is not used
824	  in order to get rid of bogus "EAP failed" messages
825	* fixed OpenSSL error reporting to go through all pending errors to
826	  avoid confusing reports of old errors being reported at later point
827	  during handshake
828	* fixed configuration file updating to not write empty variables
829	  (e.g., proto or key_mgmt) that the file parser would not accept
830	* fixed ADD_NETWORK ctrl_iface command to use the same default values
831	  for variables as empty network definitions read from config file
832	  would get
833	* fixed EAP state machine to not discard EAP-Failure messages in many
834	  cases (e.g., during TLS handshake)
835	* fixed a infinite loop in private key reading if the configured file
836	  cannot be parsed successfully
837	* driver_madwifi: added support for madwifi-ng
838	* wpa_gui: do not display password/PSK field contents
839	* wpa_gui: added CA certificate configuration
840	* driver_ndis: fixed scan request in ap_scan=2 mode not to change SSID
841	* driver_ndis: include Beacon IEs in AssocInfo in order to notice if
842	  the new AP is using different WPA/RSN IE
843	* use longer timeout for IEEE 802.11 association to avoid problems with
844	  drivers that may take more than five second to associate
845
8462005-10-27 - v0.4.6
847	* allow fallback to WPA, if mixed WPA+WPA2 networks have mismatch in
848	  RSN IE, but WPA IE would match with wpa_supplicant configuration
849	* added support for named configuration blobs in order to avoid having
850	  to use file system for external files (e.g., certificates);
851	  variables can be set to "blob://<blob name>" instead of file path to
852	  use a named blob; supported fields: pac_file, client_cert,
853	  private_key
854	* fixed RSN pre-authentication (it was broken in the clean up of WPA
855	  state machine interface in v0.4.5)
856	* driver_madwifi: set IEEE80211_KEY_GROUP flag for group keys to make
857	  sure the driver configures broadcast decryption correctly
858	* added ca_path (and ca_path2) configuration variables that can be used
859	  to configure OpenSSL CA path, e.g., /etc/ssl/certs, for using the
860	  system-wide trusted CA list
861	* added support for starting wpa_supplicant without a configuration
862	  file (-C argument must be used to set ctrl_interface parameter for
863	  this case; in addition, -p argument can be used to provide
864	  driver_param; these new arguments can also be used with a
865	  configuration to override the values from the configuration)
866	* added global control interface that can be optionally used for adding
867	  and removing network interfaces dynamically (-g command line argument
868	  for both wpa_supplicant and wpa_cli) without having to restart
869	  wpa_supplicant process
870	* wpa_gui:
871	  - try to save configuration whenever something is modified
872	  - added WEP key configuration
873	  - added possibility to edit the current network configuration
874	* driver_ndis: fixed driver polling not to increase frequency on each
875	  received EAPOL frame due to incorrectly cancelled timeout
876	* added simple configuration file examples (in examples subdirectory)
877	* fixed driver_wext.c to filter wireless events based on ifindex to
878	  avoid interfaces receiving events from other interfaces
879	* delay sending initial EAPOL-Start couple of seconds to speed up
880	  authentication for the most common case of Authenticator starting
881	  EAP authentication immediately after association
882
8832005-09-25 - v0.4.5
884	* added a workaround for clearing keys with ndiswrapper to allow
885	  roaming from WPA enabled AP to plaintext one
886	* added docbook documentation (doc/docbook) that can be used to
887	  generate, e.g., man pages
888	* l2_packet_linux: use socket type SOCK_DGRAM instead of SOCK_RAW for
889	  PF_PACKET in order to prepare for network devices that do not use
890	  Ethernet headers (e.g., network stack with native IEEE 802.11 frames)
891	* use receipt of EAPOL-Key frame as a lower layer success indication
892	  for EAP state machine to allow recovery from dropped EAP-Success
893	  frame
894	* cleaned up internal EAPOL frame processing by not including link
895	  layer (Ethernet) header during WPA and EAPOL/EAP processing; this
896	  header is added only when transmitted the frame; this makes it easier
897	  to use wpa_supplicant on link layers that use different header than
898	  Ethernet
899	* updated EAP-PSK to use draft 9 by default since this can now be
900	  tested with hostapd; removed support for draft 3, including
901	  server_nai configuration option from network blocks
902	* driver_wired: add PAE address to the multicast address list in order
903	  to be able to receive EAPOL frames with drivers that do not include
904	  these multicast addresses by default
905	* driver_wext: add support for WE-19
906	* added support for multiple configuration backends (CONFIG_BACKEND
907	  option); currently, only 'file' is supported (i.e., the format used
908	  in wpa_supplicant.conf)
909	* added support for updating configuration ('wpa_cli save_config');
910	  this is disabled by default and can be enabled with global
911	  update_config=1 variable in wpa_supplicant.conf; this allows wpa_cli
912	  and wpa_gui to store the configuration changes in a permanent store
913	* added GET_NETWORK ctrl_iface command
914	  (e.g., 'wpa_cli get_network 0 ssid')
915
9162005-08-21 - v0.4.4
917	* replaced OpenSSL patch for EAP-FAST support
918	  (openssl-tls-extensions.patch) with a more generic and correct
919	  patch (the new patch is not compatible with the previous one, so the
920	  OpenSSL library will need to be patched with the new patch in order
921	  to be able to build wpa_supplicant with EAP-FAST support)
922	* added support for using Windows certificate store (through CryptoAPI)
923	  for client certificate and private key operations (EAP-TLS)
924	  (see wpa_supplicant.conf for more information on how to configure
925	  this with private_key)
926	* ported wpa_gui to Windows
927	* added Qt4 version of wpa_gui (wpa_gui-qt4 directory); this can be
928	  built with the open source version of the Qt4 for Windows
929	* allow non-WPA modes (e.g., IEEE 802.1X with dynamic WEP) to be used
930	  with drivers that do not support WPA
931	* ndis_events: fixed Windows 2000 support
932	* added support for enabling/disabling networks from the list of all
933	  configured networks ('wpa_cli enable_network <network id>' and
934	  'wpa_cli disable_network <network id>')
935	* added support for adding and removing network from the current
936	  configuration ('wpa_cli add_network' and 'wpa_cli remove_network
937	  <network id>'); added networks are disabled by default and they can
938	  be enabled with enable_network command once the configuration is done
939	  for the new network; note: configuration file is not yet updated, so
940	  these new networks are lost when wpa_supplicant is restarted
941	* added support for setting network configuration parameters through
942	  the control interface, for example:
943	  wpa_cli set_network 0 ssid "\"my network\""
944	* fixed parsing of strings that include both " and # within double
945	  quoted area (e.g., "start"#end")
946	* added EAP workaround for PEAP session resumption: allow outer,
947	  i.e., not tunneled, EAP-Success to terminate session since; this can
948	  be disabled with eap_workaround=0
949	  (this was allowed for PEAPv1 before, but now it is also allowed for
950	  PEAPv0 since at least one RADIUS authentication server seems to be
951	  doing this for PEAPv0, too)
952	* wpa_gui: added preliminary support for adding new networks to the
953	  wpa_supplicant configuration (double click on the scan results to
954	  open network configuration)
955
9562005-06-26 - v0.4.3
957	* removed interface for external EAPOL/EAP supplicant (e.g.,
958	  Xsupplicant), (CONFIG_XSUPPLICANT_IFACE) since it is not required
959	  anymore and is unlikely to be used by anyone
960	* driver_ndis: fixed WinPcap 3.0 support
961	* fixed build with CONFIG_DNET_PCAP=y on Linux
962	* l2_packet: moved different implementations into separate files
963	  (l2_packet_*.c)
964
9652005-06-12 - v0.4.2
966	* driver_ipw: updated driver structures to match with ipw2200-1.0.4
967	  (note: ipw2100-1.1.0 is likely to require an update to work with
968	  this)
969	* added support for using ap_scan=2 mode with multiple network blocks;
970	  wpa_supplicant will go through the networks one by one until the
971	  driver reports a successful association; this uses the same order for
972	  networks as scan_ssid=1 scans, i.e., the priority field is ignored
973	  and the network block order in the file is used instead
974	* fixed a potential issue in RSN pre-authentication ending up using
975	  freed memory if pre-authentication times out
976	* added support for matching alternative subject name extensions of the
977	  authentication server certificate; new configuration variables
978	  altsubject_match and altsubject_match2
979	* driver_ndis: added support for IEEE 802.1X authentication with wired
980	  NDIS drivers
981	* added support for querying private key password (EAP-TLS) through the
982	  control interface (wpa_cli/wpa_gui) if one is not included in the
983	  configuration file
984	* driver_broadcom: fixed couple of memory leaks in scan result
985	  processing
986	* EAP-PAX is now registered as EAP type 46
987	* fixed EAP-PAX MAC calculation
988	* fixed EAP-PAX CK and ICK key derivation
989	* added support for using password with EAP-PAX (as an alternative to
990	  entering key with eappsk); SHA-1 hash of the password will be used as
991	  the key in this case
992	* added support for arbitrary driver interface parameters through the
993	  configuration file with a new driver_param field; this adds a new
994	  driver_ops function set_param()
995	* added possibility to override l2_packet module with driver interface
996	  API (new send_eapol handler); this can be used to implement driver
997	  specific TX/RX functions for EAPOL frames
998	* fixed ctrl_interface_group processing for the case where gid is
999	  entered as a number, not group name
1000	* driver_test: added support for testing hostapd with wpa_supplicant
1001	  by using test driver interface without any kernel drivers or network
1002	  cards
1003
10042005-05-22 - v0.4.1
1005	* driver_madwifi: fixed WPA/WPA2 mode configuration to allow EAPOL
1006	  packets to be encrypted; this was apparently broken by the changed
1007	  ioctl order in v0.4.0
1008	* driver_madwifi: added preliminary support for compiling against 'BSD'
1009	  branch of madwifi CVS tree
1010	* added support for EAP-MSCHAPv2 password retries within the same EAP
1011	  authentication session
1012	* added support for password changes with EAP-MSCHAPv2 (used when the
1013	  password has expired)
1014	* added support for reading additional certificates from PKCS#12 files
1015	  and adding them to the certificate chain
1016	* fixed association with IEEE 802.1X (no WPA) when dynamic WEP keys
1017	  were used
1018	* fixed a possible double free in EAP-TTLS fast-reauthentication when
1019	  identity or password is entered through control interface
1020	* display EAP Notification messages to user through control interface
1021	  with "CTRL-EVENT-EAP-NOTIFICATION" prefix
1022	* added GUI version of wpa_cli, wpa_gui; this is not build
1023	  automatically with 'make'; use 'make wpa_gui' to build (this requires
1024	  Qt development tools)
1025	* added 'disconnect' command to control interface for setting
1026	  wpa_supplicant in state where it will not associate before
1027	  'reassociate' command has been used
1028	* added support for selecting a network from the list of all configured
1029	  networks ('wpa_cli select_network <network id>'; this disabled all
1030	  other networks; to re-enable, 'wpa_cli select_network any')
1031	* added support for getting scan results through control interface
1032	* added EAP workaround for PEAPv1 session resumption: allow outer,
1033	  i.e., not tunneled, EAP-Success to terminate session since; this can
1034	  be disabled with eap_workaround=0
1035
10362005-04-25 - v0.4.0 (beginning of 0.4.x development releases)
1037	* added a new build time option, CONFIG_NO_STDOUT_DEBUG, that can be
1038	  used to reduce the size of the wpa_supplicant considerably if
1039	  debugging code is not needed
1040	* fixed EAPOL-Key validation to drop packets with invalid Key Data
1041	  Length; such frames could have crashed wpa_supplicant due to buffer
1042	  overflow
1043	* added support for wired authentication (IEEE 802.1X on wired
1044	  Ethernet); driver interface 'wired'
1045	* obsoleted set_wpa() handler in the driver interface API (it can be
1046	  replaced by moving enable/disable functionality into init()/deinit())
1047	  (calls to set_wpa() are still present for backwards compatibility,
1048	  but they may be removed in the future)
1049	* driver_madwifi: fixed association in plaintext mode
1050	* modified the EAP workaround that accepts EAP-Success with incorrect
1051	  Identifier to be even less strict about verification in order to
1052	  interoperate with some authentication servers
1053	* added support for sending TLS alerts
1054	* added support for 'any' SSID wildcard; if ssid is not configured or
1055	  is set to an empty string, any SSID will be accepted for non-WPA AP
1056	* added support for asking PIN (for SIM) from frontends (e.g.,
1057	  wpa_cli); if a PIN is needed, but not included in the configuration
1058	  file, a control interface request is sent and EAP processing is
1059	  delayed until the PIN is available
1060	* added support for using external devices (e.g., a smartcard) for
1061	  private key operations in EAP-TLS (CONFIG_SMARTCARD=y in .config);
1062	  new wpa_supplicant.conf variables:
1063	  - global: opensc_engine_path, pkcs11_engine_path, pkcs11_module_path
1064	  - network: engine, engine_id, key_id
1065	* added experimental support for EAP-PAX
1066	* added monitor mode for wpa_cli (-a<path to a program to run>) that
1067	  allows external commands (e.g., shell scripts) to be run based on
1068	  wpa_supplicant events, e.g., when authentication has been completed
1069	  and data connection is ready; other related wpa_cli arguments:
1070	  -B (run in background), -P (write PID file); wpa_supplicant has a new
1071	  command line argument (-W) that can be used to make it wait until a
1072	  control interface command is received in order to avoid missing
1073	  events
1074	* added support for opportunistic WPA2 PMKSA key caching (disabled by
1075	  default, can be enabled with proactive_key_caching=1)
1076	* fixed RSN IE in 4-Way Handshake message 2/4 for the case where
1077	  Authenticator rejects PMKSA caching attempt and the driver is not
1078	  using assoc_info events
1079	* added -P<pid file> argument for wpa_supplicant to write the current
1080	  process id into a file
1081
10822005-02-12 - v0.3.7 (beginning of 0.3.x stable releases)
1083	* added new phase1 option parameter, include_tls_length=1, to force
1084	  wpa_supplicant to add TLS Message Length field to all TLS messages
1085	  even if the packet is not fragmented; this may be needed with some
1086	  authentication servers
1087	* fixed WPA/RSN IE verification in message 3 of 4-Way Handshake when
1088	  using drivers that take care of AP selection (e.g., when using
1089	  ap_scan=2)
1090	* fixed reprocessing of pending request after ctrl_iface requests for
1091	  identity/password/otp
1092	* fixed ctrl_iface requests for identity/password/otp in Phase 2 of
1093	  EAP-PEAP and EAP-TTLS
1094	* all drivers using driver_wext: set interface up and select Managed
1095	  mode when starting wpa_supplicant; set interface down when exiting
1096	* renamed driver_ipw2100.c to driver_ipw.c since it now supports both
1097	  ipw2100 and ipw2200; please note that this also changed the
1098	  configuration variable in .config to CONFIG_DRIVER_IPW
1099
11002005-01-24 - v0.3.6
1101	* fixed a busy loop introduced in v0.3.5 for scan result processing
1102	  when no matching AP is found
1103
11042005-01-23 - v0.3.5
1105	* added a workaround for an interoperability issue with a Cisco AP
1106	  when using WPA2-PSK
1107	* fixed non-WPA IEEE 802.1X to use the same authentication timeout as
1108	  WPA with IEEE 802.1X (i.e., timeout 10 -> 70 sec to allow
1109	  retransmission of dropped frames)
1110	* fixed issues with 64-bit CPUs and SHA1 cleanup in previous version
1111	  (e.g., segfault when processing EAPOL-Key frames)
1112	* fixed EAP workaround and fast reauthentication configuration for
1113	  RSN pre-authentication; previously these were disabled and
1114	  pre-authentication would fail if the used authentication server
1115	  requires EAP workarounds
1116	* added support for blacklisting APs that fail or timeout
1117	  authentication in ap_scan=1 mode so that all APs are tried in cases
1118	  where the ones with strongest signal level are failing authentication
1119	* fixed CA certificate loading after a failed EAP-TLS/PEAP/TTLS
1120	  authentication attempt
1121	* allow EAP-PEAP/TTLS fast reauthentication only if Phase 2 succeeded
1122	  in the previous authentication (previously, only Phase 1 success was
1123	  verified)
1124
11252005-01-09 - v0.3.4
1126	* added preliminary support for IBSS (ad-hoc) mode configuration
1127	  (mode=1 in network block); this included a new key_mgmt mode
1128	  WPA-NONE, i.e., TKIP or CCMP with a fixed key (based on psk) and no
1129	  key management; see wpa_supplicant.conf for more details and an
1130	  example on how to configure this (note: this is currently implemented
1131	  only for driver_hostapd.c, but the changes should be trivial to add
1132	  in associate() handler for other drivers, too (assuming the driver
1133	  supports WPA-None)
1134	* added preliminary port for native Windows (i.e., no cygwin) using
1135	  mingw
1136
11372005-01-02 - v0.3.3
1138	* added optional support for GNU Readline and History Libraries for
1139	  wpa_cli (CONFIG_READLINE)
1140	* cleaned up EAP state machine <-> method interface and number of
1141	  small problems with error case processing not terminating on
1142	  EAP-Failure but waiting for timeout
1143	* added couple of workarounds for interoperability issues with a
1144	  Cisco AP when using WPA2
1145	* added support for EAP-FAST (draft-cam-winget-eap-fast-00.txt);
1146	  Note: This requires a patch for openssl to add support for TLS
1147	  extensions and number of workarounds for operations without
1148	  certificates. Proof of concept type of experimental patch is
1149	  included in openssl-tls-extensions.patch.
1150
11512004-12-19 - v0.3.2
1152	* fixed private key loading for cases where passphrase is not set
1153	* fixed Windows/cygwin L2 packet handler freeing; previous version
1154	  could cause a segfault when RSN pre-authentication was completed
1155	* added support for PMKSA caching with drivers that generate RSN IEs
1156	  (e.g., NDIS); currently, this is only implemented in driver_ndis.c,
1157	  but similar code can be easily added to driver_ndiswrapper.c once
1158	  ndiswrapper gets full support for RSN PMKSA caching
1159	* improved recovery from PMKID mismatches by requesting full EAP
1160	  authentication in case of failed PMKSA caching attempt
1161	* driver_ndis: added support for NDIS NdisMIncidateStatus() events
1162	  (this requires that ndis_events is ran while wpa_supplicant is
1163	  running)
1164	* driver_ndis: use ADD_WEP/REMOVE_WEP when configuring WEP keys
1165	* added support for driver interfaces to replace the interface name
1166	  based on driver/OS specific mapping, e.g., in case of driver_ndis,
1167	  this allows the beginning of the adapter description to be used as
1168	  the interface name
1169	* added support for CR+LF (Windows-style) line ends in configuration
1170	  file
1171	* driver_ndis: enable radio before starting scanning, disable radio
1172	  when exiting
1173	* modified association event handler to set portEnabled = FALSE before
1174	  clearing port Valid in order to reset EAP state machine and avoid
1175	  problems with new authentication getting ignored because of state
1176	  machines ending up in AUTHENTICATED/SUCCESS state based on old
1177	  information
1178	* added support for driver events to add PMKID candidates in order to
1179	  allow drivers to give priority to most likely roaming candidates
1180	* driver_hostap: moved PrivacyInvoked configuration to associate()
1181	  function so that this will not be set for plaintext connections
1182	* added KEY_MGMT_802_1X_NO_WPA as a new key_mgmt type so that driver
1183	  interface can distinguish plaintext and IEEE 802.1X (no WPA)
1184	  authentication
1185	* fixed static WEP key configuration to use broadcast/default type for
1186	  all keys (previously, the default TX key was configured as pairwise/
1187	  unicast key)
1188	* driver_ndis: added legacy WPA capability detection for non-WPA2
1189	  drivers
1190	* added support for setting static WEP keys for IEEE 802.1X without
1191	  dynamic WEP keying (eapol_flags=0)
1192
11932004-12-12 - v0.3.1
1194	* added support for reading PKCS#12 (PFX) files (as a replacement for
1195	  PEM/DER) to get certificate and private key (CONFIG_PKCS12)
1196	* fixed compilation with CONFIG_PCSC=y
1197	* added new ap_scan mode, ap_scan=2, for drivers that take care of
1198	  association, but need to be configured with security policy and SSID,
1199	  e.g., ndiswrapper and NDIS driver; this mode should allow such
1200	  drivers to work with hidden SSIDs and optimized roaming; when
1201	  ap_scan=2 is used, only the first network block in the configuration
1202	  file is used and this configuration should have explicit security
1203	  policy (i.e., only one option in the lists) for key_mgmt, pairwise,
1204	  group, proto variables
1205	* added experimental port of wpa_supplicant for Windows
1206	  - driver_ndis.c driver interface (NDIS OIDs)
1207	  - currently, this requires cygwin and WinPcap
1208	  - small utility, win_if_list, can be used to get interface name
1209	* control interface can now be removed at build time; add
1210	  CONFIG_CTRL_IFACE=y to .config to maintain old functionality
1211	* optional Xsupplicant interface can now be removed at build time;
1212	  (CONFIG_XSUPPLICANT_IFACE=y in .config to bring it back)
1213	* added auth_alg to driver interface associate() parameters to make it
1214	  easier for drivers to configure authentication algorithm as part of
1215	  the association
1216
12172004-12-05 - v0.3.0 (beginning of 0.3.x development releases)
1218	* driver_broadcom: added new driver interface for Broadcom wl.o driver
1219	  (a generic driver for Broadcom IEEE 802.11a/g cards)
1220	* wpa_cli: fixed parsing of -p <path> command line argument
1221	* PEAPv1: fixed tunneled EAP-Success reply handling to reply with TLS
1222	  ACK, not tunneled EAP-Success (of which only the first byte was
1223	  actually send due to a bug in previous code); this seems to
1224	  interoperate with most RADIUS servers that implements PEAPv1
1225	* PEAPv1: added support for terminating PEAP authentication on tunneled
1226	  EAP-Success message; this can be configured by adding
1227	  peap_outer_success=0 on phase1 parameters in wpa_supplicant.conf
1228	  (some RADIUS servers require this whereas others require a tunneled
1229	  reply
1230	* PEAPv1: changed phase1 option peaplabel to use default to 0, i.e., to
1231	  the old label for key derivation; previously, the default was 1,
1232	  but it looks like most existing PEAPv1 implementations use the old
1233	  label which is thus more suitable default option
1234	* added support for EAP-PSK (draft-bersani-eap-psk-03.txt)
1235	* fixed parsing of wep_tx_keyidx
1236	* added support for configuring list of allowed Phase 2 EAP types
1237	  (for both EAP-PEAP and EAP-TTLS) instead of only one type
1238	* added support for configuring IEEE 802.11 authentication algorithm
1239	  (auth_alg; mainly for using Shared Key authentication with static
1240	  WEP keys)
1241	* added support for EAP-AKA (with UMTS SIM)
1242	* fixed couple of errors in PCSC handling that could have caused
1243	  random-looking errors for EAP-SIM
1244	* added support for EAP-SIM pseudonyms and fast re-authentication
1245	* added support for EAP-TLS/PEAP/TTLS fast re-authentication (TLS
1246	  session resumption)
1247	* added support for EAP-SIM with two challanges
1248	  (phase1="sim_min_num_chal=3" can be used to require three challenges)
1249	* added support for configuring DH/DSA parameters for an ephemeral DH
1250	  key exchange (EAP-TLS/PEAP/TTLS) using new configuration parameters
1251	  dh_file and dh_file2 (phase 2); this adds support for using DSA keys
1252	  and optional DH key exchange to achieve forward secracy with RSA keys
1253	* added support for matching subject of the authentication server
1254	  certificate with a substring when using EAP-TLS/PEAP/TTLS; new
1255	  configuration variables subject_match and subject_match2
1256	* changed SSID configuration in driver_wext.c (used by many driver
1257	  interfaces) to use ssid_len+1 as the length for SSID since some Linux
1258	  drivers expect this
1259	* fixed couple of unaligned reads in scan result parsing to fix WPA
1260	  connection on some platforms (e.g., ARM)
1261	* added driver interface for Intel ipw2100 driver
1262	* added support for LEAP with WPA
1263	* added support for larger scan results report (old limit was 4 kB of
1264	  data, i.e., about 35 or so APs) when using Linux wireless extensions
1265	  v17 or newer
1266	* fixed a bug in PMKSA cache processing: skip sending of EAPOL-Start
1267	  only if there is a PMKSA cache entry for the current AP
1268	* fixed error handling for case where reading of scan results fails:
1269	  must schedule a new scan or wpa_supplicant will remain waiting
1270	  forever
1271	* changed debug output to remove shared password/key material by
1272	  default; all key information can be included with -K command line
1273	  argument to match the previous behavior
1274	* added support for timestamping debug log messages (disabled by
1275	  default, can be enabled with -t command line argument)
1276	* set pairwise/group cipher suite for non-WPA IEEE 802.1X to WEP-104
1277	  if keys are not configured to be used; this fixes IEEE 802.1X mode
1278	  with drivers that use this information to configure whether Privacy
1279	  bit can be in Beacon frames (e.g., ndiswrapper)
1280	* avoid clearing driver keys if no keys have been configured since last
1281	  key clear request; this seems to improve reliability of group key
1282	  handshake for ndiswrapper & NDIS driver which seems to be suffering
1283	  of some kind of timing issue when the keys are cleared again after
1284	  association
1285	* changed driver interface API:
1286	  - WPA_SUPPLICANT_DRIVER_VERSION define can be used to determine which
1287	    version is being used (now, this is set to 2; previously, it was
1288	    not defined)
1289	  - pass pointer to private data structure to all calls
1290	  - the new API is not backwards compatible; all in-tree driver
1291	    interfaces has been converted to the new API
1292	* added support for controlling multiple interfaces (radios) per
1293	  wpa_supplicant process; each interface needs to be listed on the
1294	  command line (-c, -i, -D arguments) with -N as a separator
1295	  (-cwpa1.conf -iwlan0 -Dhostap -N -cwpa2.conf -iath0 -Dmadwifi)
1296	* added a workaround for EAP servers that incorrectly use same Id for
1297	  sequential EAP packets
1298	* changed libpcap/libdnet configuration to use .config variable,
1299	  CONFIG_DNET_PCAP, instead of requiring Makefile modification
1300	* improved downgrade attack detection in IE verification of msg 3/4:
1301	  verify both WPA and RSN IEs, if present, not only the selected one;
1302	  reject the AP if an RSN IE is found in msg 3/4, but not in Beacon or
1303	  Probe Response frame, and RSN is enabled in wpa_supplicant
1304	  configuration
1305	* fixed WPA msg 3/4 processing to allow Key Data field contain other
1306	  IEs than just one WPA IE
1307	* added support for FreeBSD and driver interface for the BSD net80211
1308	  layer (CONFIG_DRIVER_BSD=y in .config); please note that some of the
1309	  required kernel mods have not yet been committed
1310	* made EAP workarounds configurable; enabled by default, can be
1311	  disabled with network block option eap_workaround=0
1312
13132004-07-17 - v0.2.4 (beginning of 0.2.x stable releases)
1314	* resolved couple of interoperability issues with EAP-PEAPv1 and
1315	  Phase 2 (inner EAP) fragment reassembly
1316	* driver_madwifi: fixed WEP key configuration for IEEE 802.1X when the
1317	  AP is using non-zero key index for the unicast key and key index zero
1318	  for the broadcast key
1319	* driver_hostap: fixed IEEE 802.1X WEP key updates and
1320	  re-authentication by allowing unencrypted EAPOL frames when not using
1321	  WPA
1322	* added a new driver interface, 'wext', which uses only standard,
1323	  driver independent functionality in Linux wireless extensions;
1324	  currently, this can be used only for non-WPA IEEE 802.1X mode, but
1325	  eventually, this is to be extended to support full WPA/WPA2 once
1326	  Linux wireless extensions get support for this
1327	* added support for mode in which the driver is responsible for AP
1328	  scanning and selection; this is disabled by default and can be
1329	  enabled with global ap_scan=0 variable in wpa_supplicant.conf;
1330	  this mode can be used, e.g., with generic 'wext' driver interface to
1331	  use wpa_supplicant as IEEE 802.1X Supplicant with any Linux driver
1332	  supporting wireless extensions.
1333	* driver_madwifi: fixed WPA2 configuration and scan_ssid=1 (e.g.,
1334	  operation with an AP that does not include SSID in the Beacon frames)
1335	* added support for new EAP authentication methods:
1336	  EAP-TTLS/EAP-OTP, EAP-PEAPv0/OTP, EAP-PEAPv1/OTP, EAP-OTP
1337	* added support for asking one-time-passwords from frontends (e.g.,
1338	  wpa_cli); this 'otp' command works otherwise like 'password' command,
1339	  but the password is used only once and the frontend will be asked for
1340	  a new password whenever a request from authenticator requires a
1341	  password; this can be used with both EAP-OTP and EAP-GTC
1342	* changed wpa_cli to automatically re-establish connection so that it
1343	  does not need to be re-started when wpa_supplicant is terminated and
1344	  started again
1345	* improved user data (identity/password/otp) requests through
1346	  frontends: process pending EAPOL packets after getting new
1347	  information so that full authentication does not need to be
1348	  restarted; in addition, send pending requests again whenever a new
1349	  frontend is attached
1350	* changed control frontends to use a new directory for socket files to
1351	  make it easier for wpa_cli to automatically select between interfaces
1352	  and to provide access control for the control interface;
1353	  wpa_supplicant.conf: ctrl_interface is now a path
1354	  (/var/run/wpa_supplicant is the recommended path) and
1355	  ctrl_interface_group can be used to select which group gets access to
1356	  the control interface;
1357	  wpa_cli: by default, try to connect to the first interface available
1358	  in /var/run/wpa_supplicant; this path can be overriden with -p option
1359	  and an interface can be selected with -i option (i.e., in most common
1360	  cases, wpa_cli does not need to get any arguments)
1361	* added support for LEAP
1362	* added driver interface for Linux ndiswrapper
1363	* added priority option for network blocks in the configuration file;
1364	  this allows networks to be grouped based on priority (the scan
1365	  results are searched for matches with network blocks in this order)
1366
13672004-06-20 - v0.2.3
1368	* sort scan results to improve AP selection
1369	* fixed control interface socket removal for some error cases
1370	* improved scan requesting and authentication timeout
1371	* small improvements/bug fixes for EAP-MSCHAPv2, EAP-PEAP, and
1372	  TLS processing
1373	* PEAP version can now be forced with phase1="peapver=<ver>"
1374	  (mostly for testing; by default, the highest version supported by
1375	  both the Supplicant and Authentication Server is selected
1376	  automatically)
1377	* added support for madwifi driver (Atheros ar521x)
1378	* added a workaround for cases where AP sets Install Tx/Rx bit for
1379	  WPA Group Key messages when pairwise keys are used (without this,
1380	  the Group Key would be used for Tx and the AP would drop frames
1381	  from the station)
1382	* added GSM SIM/USIM interface for GSM authentication algorithm for
1383	  EAP-SIM; this requires pcsc-lite
1384	* added support for ATMEL AT76C5XXx driver
1385	* fixed IEEE 802.1X WEP key derivation in the case where Authenticator
1386	  does not include key data in the EAPOL-Key frame (i.e., part of
1387	  EAP keying material is used as data encryption key)
1388	* added support for using plaintext and static WEP networks
1389	  (key_mgmt=NONE)
1390
13912004-05-31 - v0.2.2
1392	* added support for new EAP authentication methods:
1393	  EAP-TTLS/EAP-MD5-Challenge
1394	  EAP-TTLS/EAP-GTC
1395	  EAP-TTLS/EAP-MSCHAPv2
1396	  EAP-TTLS/EAP-TLS
1397	  EAP-TTLS/MSCHAPv2
1398	  EAP-TTLS/MSCHAP
1399	  EAP-TTLS/PAP
1400	  EAP-TTLS/CHAP
1401	  EAP-PEAP/TLS
1402	  EAP-PEAP/GTC
1403	  EAP-PEAP/MD5-Challenge
1404	  EAP-GTC
1405	  EAP-SIM (not yet complete; needs GSM/SIM authentication interface)
1406	* added support for anonymous identity (to be used when identity is
1407	  sent in plaintext; real identity will be used within TLS protected
1408	  tunnel (e.g., with EAP-TTLS)
1409	* added event messages from wpa_supplicant to frontends, e.g., wpa_cli
1410	* added support for requesting identity and password information using
1411	  control interface; in other words, the password for EAP-PEAP or
1412	  EAP-TTLS does not need to be included in the configuration file since
1413	  a frontand (e.g., wpa_cli) can ask it from the user
1414	* improved RSN pre-authentication to use a candidate list and process
1415	  all candidates from each scan; not only one per scan
1416	* fixed RSN IE and WPA IE capabilities field parsing
1417	* ignore Tx bit in GTK IE when Pairwise keys are used
1418	* avoid making new scan requests during IEEE 802.1X negotiation
1419	* use openssl/libcrypto for MD5 and SHA-1 when compiling wpa_supplicant
1420	  with TLS support (this replaces the included implementation with
1421	  library code to save about 8 kB since the library code is needed
1422	  anyway for TLS)
1423	* fixed WPA-PSK only mode when compiled without IEEE 802.1X support
1424	  (i.e., without CONFIG_IEEE8021X_EAPOL=y in .config)
1425
14262004-05-06 - v0.2.1
1427	* added support for internal IEEE 802.1X (actually, IEEE 802.1aa/D6.1)
1428	  Supplicant
1429	  - EAPOL state machines for Supplicant [IEEE 802.1aa/D6.1]
1430	  - EAP peer state machine [draft-ietf-eap-statemachine-02.pdf]
1431	  - EAP-MD5 (cannot be used with WPA-RADIUS)
1432	    [draft-ietf-eap-rfc2284bis-09.txt]
1433	  - EAP-TLS [RFC 2716]
1434	  - EAP-MSCHAPv2 (currently used only with EAP-PEAP)
1435	  - EAP-PEAP/MSCHAPv2 [draft-josefsson-pppext-eap-tls-eap-07.txt]
1436	    [draft-kamath-pppext-eap-mschapv2-00.txt]
1437	    (PEAP version 0, 1, and parts of 2; only 0 and 1 are enabled by
1438	    default; tested with FreeRADIUS, Microsoft IAS, and Funk Odyssey)
1439	  - new configuration file options: eap, identity, password, ca_cert,
1440	    client_cert, privatekey, private_key_passwd
1441	  - Xsupplicant is not required anymore, but it can be used by
1442	    disabling the internal IEEE 802.1X Supplicant with -e command line
1443	    option
1444	  - this code is not included in the default build; Makefile need to
1445	    be edited for this (uncomment lines for selected functionality)
1446	  - EAP-TLS and EAP-PEAP require openssl libraries
1447	* use module prefix in debug messages (WPA, EAP, EAP-TLS, ..)
1448	* added support for non-WPA IEEE 802.1X mode with dynamic WEP keys
1449	  (i.e., complete IEEE 802.1X/EAP authentication and use IEEE 802.1X
1450	   EAPOL-Key frames instead of WPA key handshakes)
1451	* added support for IEEE 802.11i/RSN (WPA2)
1452	  - improved PTK Key Handshake
1453	  - PMKSA caching, pre-authentication
1454	* fixed wpa_supplicant to ignore possible extra data after WPA
1455	  EAPOL-Key packets (this fixes 'Invalid EAPOL-Key MIC when using
1456	  TPTK' error from message 3 of 4-Way Handshake in case the AP
1457	  includes extra data after the EAPOL-Key)
1458	* added interface for external programs (frontends) to control
1459	  wpa_supplicant
1460	  - CLI example (wpa_cli) with interactive mode and command line
1461	    mode
1462	  - replaced SIGUSR1 status/statistics with the new control interface
1463	* made some feature compile time configurable
1464	  - .config file for make
1465	  - driver interfaces (hostap, hermes, ..)
1466	  - EAPOL/EAP functions
1467
14682004-02-15 - v0.2.0
1469	* Initial version of wpa_supplicant
1470
