Jouni Malinen bb52293e71 OpenSSL: Detect and prevent TLS heartbeat attack
Some OpenSSL versions have vulnerability in TLS heartbeat request
processing. Check the processed message to determine if the attack has
been used and if so, do not send the response to the peer. This does not
prevent the buffer read overflow within OpenSSL, but this prevents the
attacker from receiving the information.

This change is an additional layer of protection if some yet to be
identified paths were to expose this OpenSSL vulnerability. However, the
way OpenSSL is used for EAP-TLS/TTLS/PEAP/FAST in hostapd/wpa_supplicant
was already rejecting the messages before the response goes out and as
such, this additional change is unlikely to be needed to avoid the
issue.

file for more instructions.


This package may include either wpa_supplicant, hostapd, or both. See
README file respective subdirectories (wpa_supplicant/README or
hostapd/README) for more details.

Source code files were moved around in v0.6.x releases and compared to
earlier releases, the programs are now built by first going to a
subdirectory (wpa_supplicant or hostapd) and creating build
configuration (.config) and running 'make' there (for Linux/BSD/cygwin
builds).
