The configuration parsing functions seemed to have worked fine before,
but these were real bugs even if they did not show up in practice.
hostapd_ip_diff() was broken for IPv6 addresses (overwrote address and
always returned 1.
Generate a SHA1 hash -based UUID from the local MAC address if the UUID
was not configured. This makes it easier to prepare for WPS since there
is no need to generate an UUID.
IEEE 802.11w/D7.0 incorrectly changed the Action Category from 8 to 7
when renaming Ping to SA Query. Category 7 is reserved for HT (IEEE
802.11n) and IEEE 802.11w will need to continue to use the category 8
that was allocated for it.
Previous version assumed that the Flags field is always present and
ended up reading one octet past the end of the buffer should the Flags
field be missing. The message length would also be set incorrectly
(size_t)-1 or (size_t)-5, but it looks like reassembly code ended up
failing in malloc before actually using this huge length to read data.
RFC 2716 uses a somewhat unclear description on what exactly is included
in the TLS Ack message ("no data" can refer to either Data field in 4.1
or TLS Data field in 4.2), so in theory, it would be possible for some
implementations to not include Flags field. However,
EAP-{PEAP,TTLS,FAST} need the Flags field in Ack messages, too, for
indicating the used version.
The EAP peer code will now accept the no-Flags case as an Ack message if
EAP workarounds are enabled (which is the default behavior). If
workarounds are disabled, the message without Flags field will be
rejected.
[Bug 292]
It looks like this never survived the move from IEEE 802.1X-2001 to
IEEE 802.1X-2004 and EAP state machine (RFC 4137). The retransmission
scheduling and control is now in EAP authenticator and the
calculateTimeout() producedure is used to determine timeout for
retransmission (either dynamic backoff or value from EAP method hint).
The recommended calculations based on SRTT and RTTVAR (RFC 2988) are not
yet implemented since there is no round-trip time measurement available
yet.
This should make EAP authentication much more robust in environments
where initial packets are lost for any reason. If the EAP method does
not provide a hint on timeout, default schedule of 3, 6, 12, 20, 20, 20,
... seconds will be used.
Previously, only the delivery option 1 from RFC 4284
(EAP-Request/Identity from the AP) was supported. Now option 3
(subsequent EAP-Request/Identity from RADIUS server) can also be used
when hostapd is used as a RADIUS server. The eap_user file will need to
have a Phase 1 user entry pointing to Identity method in order for this
to happen (e.g., "* Identity" in the end of the file). The identity hint
is configured in the same was as for AP/Authenticator case (eap_message
in hostapd.conf).
This commit changes just the name and Action category per D7.0. The
retransmit/timeout processing in the AP is not yet updated with the
changes in D7.0.
Some deployed WPS implementations fail to parse zero-length attributes.
As a workaround, send a null character if the device attribute string is
empty. This allows default values (empty strings) to be used without
interop issues.
Before this change, it looked like an AP that was using wsccmd did not
get activated since wsccmd left the Selected Registrar Config Methods
attribute to be zero. Since Device Password ID can be used to
distinguish PBC from any other method, use only it to figure out whether
PBC or PIN method is active.
The new INTERFACE_LIST global control interface command can be used to
request a list of all available network interfaces that could be used
with the enabled driver wrappers. This could be used to enable
interfaces automatically by external programs (e.g., wpa_gui).
Driver wrappers can now register global_init() and global_deinit()
driver_ops handlers to get a global data structure that can be shared
for all interfaces. This allows driver wrappers to initialize some
functionality (e.g., interface monitoring) before any interfaces have
been initialized.
This callback is now used to stop wpa_supplicant from trying to continue
using parameters (most likely, device password) that do not work in a
loop. In addition, wpa_gui can now notify user of failed registration.
The event callback will be used for various event messages and the M2D
notification is the first such message. It is used to notify wpa_gui
about Registrar not yet knowing the device password (PIN).
We need to be a bit more careful when removing the WPS configuration
block since wpa_s->current_ssid may still be pointing at it. In
addition, registrar pointer in wps_context will need to be cleared
since the context data is now maintained over multiple EAP-WSC runs.
Without this, certain WPS operations could have used freed memory.
Instead of sending out EAP-Failure on errors (on AP) or stopping (on
Supplicant), send a NACK message based on the allowed EAP state machine
transitions for EAP-WSC.
Whenever new scan results include WPS AP(s) and the client is not
associated, send a notification message to control interface monitors.
This makes it easier for GUIs to notify the user about possible WPS
availability without having to go through the scan results.
