Upstream Changes:
* Wi-Fi Easy Connect
- add support for DPP release 3

* 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

I changed my nickname from Ninjatrappeur to Picnoir. My github id is
stable, it shouldn't break too much stuff.
I took advantage of this handle change to remove myself from the
hostapd maintainers: I don't use NixOS as a router anymore.
At this point this is basically a full rewrite of this module, which
is a breaking change and was necessary to properly expose the useful
parts of hostapd's config. The notable changes are:
- `hostapd` is now started with additional systemd sandbox/hardening options
- A single-daemon can now manage multiple distinct radios and BSSs, which is
why all configuration had to be moved into `hostapd.radios`
- By default WPA3-SAE will be used, but WPA2 and WPA3-SAE-TRANSITION are
supported, too
- Added passwordFile-like options for wpa and sae
- Add new relevant options for MAC ACL, WiFi5, WiFi6 and WiFi7 configuration
- Implements RFC42 as far as reasonable for hostapd
- Removes `with lib;`
These changes are important to support modern APs configurations.
Short overview:
- CONFIG_IEEE80211AX support (WiFi6)
- CONFIG_SAE_PK (pubkey authenticated WPA3)
- CONFIG_DRIVER_NONE (standalone RADIUS server)
- CONFIG_OCV (Operating Channel Validation)
- Enable epoll on linux systems
- Remove deprecated TKIP support
- Fix misspelling (CONFIG_INTERNETWORKING != CONFIG_INTERWORKING)
- The .config was restructured into sections to reflect the
upstream defconfig order and for easier updating in the future
In wpa_supplicant and hostapd 2.9, forging attacks may occur because
AlgorithmIdentifier parameters are mishandled in tls/pkcs1.c and
tls/x509v3.c.
Fixes: CVE-2021-30004
continuation of #109595
pkgconfig was aliased in 2018, however, it remained in
all-packages.nix due to its wide usage. This cleans
up the remaining references to pkgs.pkgsconfig and
moves the entry to aliases.nix.
python3Packages.pkgconfig remained unchanged because
it's the canonical name of the upstream package
on pypi.
AP mode PMF disconnection protection bypass
Published: September 11, 2019
Identifiers:
- CVE-2019-16275
Latest version available from: https://w1.fi/security/2019-7/
Vulnerability
hostapd (and wpa_supplicant when controlling AP mode) did not perform
sufficient source address validation for some received Management frames
and this could result in ending up sending a frame that caused
associated stations to incorrectly believe they were disconnected from
the network even if management frame protection (also known as PMF) was
negotiated for the association. This could be considered to be a denial
of service vulnerability since PMF is supposed to protect from this type
of issues. It should be noted that if PMF is not enabled, there would be
no protocol level protection against this type of denial service
attacks.
An attacker in radio range of the access point could inject a specially
constructed unauthenticated IEEE 802.11 frame to the access point to
cause associated stations to be disconnected and require a reconnection
to the network.
Vulnerable versions/configurations
All hostapd and wpa_supplicants versions with PMF support
(CONFIG_IEEE80211W=y) and a runtime configuration enabled AP mode with
PMF being enabled (optional or required). In addition, this would be
applicable only when using user space based MLME/SME in AP mode, i.e.,
when hostapd (or wpa_supplicant when controlling AP mode) would process
authentication and association management frames. This condition would
be applicable mainly with drivers that use mac80211.
Possible mitigation steps
- Merge the following commit to wpa_supplicant/hostapd and rebuild:
AP: Silently ignore management frame from unexpected source address
This patch is available from https://w1.fi/security/2019-7/
- Update to wpa_supplicant/hostapd v2.10 or newer, once available
Applies OpenWRT's noscan patch to hostapd and the relevant option to
the hostapd module.
This noscan patch adds a new `noscan` option allowing us to create
some overlapping BSSs in HT40+/- mode.
Note: this option is disabled by default, we leave this up to the end
user whether it should be enabled or not.
Not being able to create those overlapping BSSs is basically
preventing us to use 802.11n in any urban area where chances to
overlap with another SSID are extremely high.
The patch we are using is a courtesy of the openwrt team and is
applied to the defaul hostapd package in both OpenWRT and Archlinux.
He prefers to contribute to his own nixpkgs fork triton.
Since he is still marked as maintainer in many packages
this leaves the wrong impression he still maintains those.
