ChangeLog for hostapd
-????-??-?? - v0.6.5
+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
+ runtime configuration variables in hostapd.conf (see WPS section in
+ the example configuration file); new hostapd_cli commands wps_pin and
+ wps_pbc are used to configure WPS negotiation; see README-WPS for
+ more details
+ * added IEEE 802.11n HT capability configuration (ht_capab)
+ * added support for generating Country IE based on nl80211 regulatory
+ information (added if ieee80211d=1 in configuration)
+ * fixed WEP authentication (both Open System and Shared Key) with
+ mac80211
+ * added support for EAP-AKA' (draft-arkko-eap-aka-kdf)
+ * added support for using driver_test over UDP socket
+ * changed EAP-GPSK to use the IANA assigned EAP method type 51
+ * updated management frame protection to use IEEE 802.11w/D7.0
+ * fixed retransmission of EAP requests if no response is received
+
+2008-11-23 - v0.6.6
+ * added a new configuration option, wpa_ptk_rekey, that can be used to
+ enforce frequent PTK rekeying, e.g., to mitigate some attacks against
+ 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
+
+2008-11-01 - v0.6.5
* added support for SHA-256 as X.509 certificate digest when using the
internal X.509/TLSv1 implementation
* fixed EAP-FAST PAC-Opaque padding (0.6.4 broke this for some peer
(driver=none in hostapd.conf; CONFIG_DRIVER_NONE=y in .config)
* fixed WPA/RSN IE validation to verify that the proto (WPA vs. WPA2)
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
