Hi J,

Find attached the patch I applied to wpa_supplicant to disable TLS session reuse.

All the best,

Hi Mr.Malinen,

I understand you are very busy but I wondered if you had commented on my post.

Kind Regards,
Owain.

Hi,

I am  using EAP-TLS on wpa_supplicant 0.7.3 with Cisco ACS 5.2.

I am seeing the WPA_Supplicant offer a session ticket in the TLS exchange.

I would like to disable the session reuse and prevent the wpa_supplicant from offering session reuse in its Client Hello but how?
I tried using the "fast_reauth=0" configuration option, but this appeared not to stop the TLS extension being sent in the hello. (is this only relevant for EAP-FAST?)

I then patched the wpa_supplicant adding the call to SSL_CTX_set_options( SSL_OP_NO_TICKET) for the SSL context. This appears to have worked, but I know this is not the right way to go about things; I really want to use the unadulterated vanilla wpa_supplicant.

What is the correct way to ensure that we DON't use TLS session reuse with wpa_supplicant?

I am using openSSL 0.9.8q-2 SSL libraries.

All the best,
Owain
