New versions of wpa_supplicant and hostapd were just
released and are now available from http://w1.fi/
This release is from the development branch (0.6.x). Please note that
the 0.5.x branch continues to be the current source of stable releases.
hostapd:
* added experimental, integrated TLSv1 server implementation with the
needed X.509/ASN.1/RSA/bignum processing (this can be enabled by
setting CONFIG_TLS=internal and CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH=y in
.config); this can be useful, e.g., if the target system does not
have a suitable TLS library and a minimal code size is required
* added support for EAP-FAST server method to the integrated EAP
server
* updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-07.txt)
* added a new configuration parameter, rsn_pairwise, to allow different
pairwise cipher suites to be enabled for WPA and RSN/WPA2
(note: if wpa_pairwise differs from rsn_pairwise, the driver will
either need to support this or will have to use the WPA/RSN IEs from
hostapd; currently, the included madwifi and bsd driver interfaces do
not have support for this)
* updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D8.0
wpa_supplicant:
* added support for configuring password as NtPasswordHash
(16-byte MD4 hash of password) in hash:<32 hex digits> format
* added support for fallback from abbreviated TLS handshake to
full handshake when using EAP-FAST (e.g., due to an expired
PAC-Opaque)
* updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-07.txt)
* added support for drivers that take care of RSN 4-way handshake
internally (WPA_DRIVER_FLAGS_4WAY_HANDSHAKE in get_capa flags and
WPA_ALG_PMK in set_key)
* added an experimental port for Mac OS X (CONFIG_DRIVER_OSX=y in
.config); this version supports only ap_scan=2 mode and allow the
driver to take care of the 4-way handshake
* fixed a buffer overflow in parsing TSF from scan results when using
driver_wext.c with a driver that includes the TSF (e.g., iwl4965)
[Bug 232]
* updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D8.0
* fixed an integer overflow issue in the ASN.1 parser used by the
(experimental) internal TLS implementation to avoid a potential
buffer read overflow
* fixed a race condition with -W option (wait for a control interface
monitor before starting) that could have caused the first messages to
be lost
* added support for processing TNCC-TNCS-Messages to report
recommendation (allow/none/isolate) when using TNC [Bug 243]
