| Summary: Daemon for running a WPA capable Access Point | |
hostapd is a user space daemon for access point and authentication servers. It implements IEEE 802.11 access point management, IEEE 802.1X/WPA/WPA2/EAP Authenticators, RADIUS client, EAP server, and RADIUS authentication server. Currently, hostapd supports HostAP, madwifi, and prism54 drivers. It also supports wired IEEE 802.1X authentication via any ethernet driver.

- CVE-2025-24912: hostapd fails to process crafted RADIUS packets
properly (bsc#1239461)
[+ CVE-2025-24912.patch]
* Thu Aug 08 2024 chris@computersalat.de
- 2024-07-20 - v2.11
* Wi-Fi Easy Connect
- add support for DPP release 3
- allow Configurator parameters to be provided during config
exchange
* HE/IEEE 802.11ax/Wi-Fi 6
- various fixes
* EHT/IEEE 802.11be/Wi-Fi 7
- add preliminary support
* SAE: add support for fetching the password from a RADIUS server
* support OpenSSL 3.0 API changes
* support background radar detection and CAC with some additional
drivers
* support RADIUS ACL/PSK check during 4-way handshake (wpa_psk_radius=3)
* EAP-SIM/AKA: support IMSI privacy
* improve 4-way handshake operations
- use Secure=1 in message 3 during PTK rekeying
* OCV: do not check Frequency Segment 1 Channel Number for 160 MHz cases
to avoid interoperability issues
* support new SAE AKM suites with variable length keys
* support new AKM for 802.1X/EAP with SHA384
* extend PASN support for secure ranging
* FT: Use SHA256 to derive PMKID for AKM 00-0F-AC:3 (FT-EAP)
- this is based on additional details being added in the IEEE 802.11
standard
- the new implementation is not backwards compatible
* improved ACS to cover additional channel types/bandwidths
* extended Multiple BSSID support
* fix beacon protection with FT protocol (incorrect BIGTK was provided)
* support unsynchronized service discovery (USD)
* add preliminary support for RADIUS/TLS
* add support for explicit SSID protection in 4-way handshake
(a mitigation for CVE-2023-52424; disabled by default for now, can be
enabled with ssid_protection=1)
* fix SAE H2E rejected groups validation to avoid downgrade attacks
* use stricter validation for some RADIUS messages
* a large number of other fixes, cleanup, and extensions
* Fri Mar 11 2022 Clemens Famulla-Conrad <cfamullaconrad@suse.com>
- Adjust config
* Enable SAE
* Enable DPP
* Enable wired driver
* Enable Airtime policy support
* Enable Fast Initial Link Setup (FILS) (IEEE 802.11ai)
* Mon Jan 17 2022 Michael Ströder <michael@stroeder.com>
- Removed obsolete patches:
* CVE-2019-16275.patch
* CVE-2020-12695.patch
* CVE-2021-30004.patch
- Update to version 2.10
* SAE changes
- improved protection against side channel attacks
[https://w1.fi/security/2022-1/]
- added option send SAE Confirm immediately (sae_config_immediate=1)
after SAE Commit
- added support for the hash-to-element mechanism (sae_pwe=1 or
sae_pwe=2)
- fixed PMKSA caching with OKC
- added support for SAE-PK
* EAP-pwd changes
- improved protection against side channel attacks
[https://w1.fi/security/2022-1/]
* fixed WPS UPnP SUBSCRIBE handling of invalid operations
[https://w1.fi/security/2020-1/]
* fixed PMF disconnection protection bypass
[https://w1.fi/security/2019-7/]
* added support for using OpenSSL 3.0
* fixed various issues in experimental support for EAP-TEAP server
* added configuration (max_auth_rounds, max_auth_rounds_short) to
increase the maximum number of EAP message exchanges (mainly to
support cases with very large certificates) for the EAP server
* added support for DPP release 2 (Wi-Fi Device Provisioning Protocol)
* extended HE (IEEE 802.11ax) support, including 6 GHz support
* removed obsolete IAPP functionality
* fixed EAP-FAST server with TLS GCM/CCM ciphers
* dropped support for libnl 1.1
* added support for nl80211 control port for EAPOL frame TX/RX
* fixed OWE key derivation with groups 20 and 21; this breaks backwards
compatibility for these groups while the default group 19 remains
backwards compatible; owe_ptk_workaround=1 can be used to enabled a
a workaround for the group 20/21 backwards compatibility
* added support for Beacon protection
* added support for Extended Key ID for pairwise keys
* removed WEP support from the default build (CONFIG_WEP=y can be used
to enable it, if really needed)
* added a build option to remove TKIP support (CONFIG_NO_TKIP=y)
* added support for Transition Disable mechanism to allow the AP to
automatically disable transition mode to improve security
* added support for PASN
* added EAP-TLS server support for TLS 1.3 (disabled by default for now)
* a large number of other fixes, cleanup, and extensions
* Fri Nov 26 2021 Clemens Famulla-Conrad <cfamullaconrad@suse.com>
- Fix AppArmor profile -- allow access to /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf
(bsc#1192959)
* Fri Oct 15 2021 Johannes Segitz <jsegitz@suse.com>
- Added hardening to systemd service(s) (bsc#1181400). Modified:
* hostapd.service
* Wed Jul 14 2021 Michael Ströder <michael@stroeder.com>
- fixed AppArmor profile
* Tue Apr 06 2021 Clemens Famulla-Conrad <cfamullaconrad@suse.com>

AlgorithmIdentifier parameters are mishandled in tls/pkcs1.c and tls/x509v3.c
(bsc#1184348)
* Tue Feb 23 2021 Michael Ströder <michael@stroeder.com>
