-To do:
-- hostap: try other roaming modes
- NOTE: current mode (manual roaming) does not really roam at all..
- Firmware did not notice the current AP disappearing..
-- add support for WPA with ap_scan=0 (update selected cipher etc. based on
- AssocInfo; make sure these match with configuration)
-- optional security separation (build time option): run EAPOL state machines
- as non-root (need to add something like socketpair between privileged root
- process and non-root handler; send EAPOL packets between processes
- and send keying data from non-root -> privileged)
- EAPOL-Key processing (WPA & WEP keys) could be in privileged part
- at least in the beginning; some parts might end up being moved to
- non-root part eventually
-- consider closing smart card / PCSC connection when EAP-SIM/EAP-AKA
- authentication has been completed (cache scard data based on serial#(?)
- and try to optimize next connection if the same card is present for next
- auth)
-- EAP-AKA: AT_CHECKCODE
-- EAP-SIM/AKA: AT_RESULT_IND
-- on disconnect event, could try to associate with another AP if one is
- present in scan results; would need to update scan results periodically..
-- if driver/hw is not WPA2 capable, must remove WPA_PROTO_RSN flag from
- ssid->proto fields to avoid detecting downgrade attacks when the driver
- is not reporting RSN IE, but msg 3/4 has one
-- Cisco AP and non-zero keyidx for unicast -> map to broadcast
- (actually, this already works with driver_ndis; so maybe just change
- driver_*.c to do the mapping for drivers that cannot handle non-zero keyidx
- for unicast); worked also with Host AP driver and madwifi
-- IEEE 802.1X and key update with driver_ndis?? wpa_supplicant did not seem
- to see unencrypted EAPOL-Key frames at all..
-- EAP-PAX with PAX_SEC
-- EAP (RFC 3748)
- * OTP Extended Responses (Sect. 5.5)
-- test what happens if authenticator sends EAP-Success before real EAP
- authentication ("canned" Success); this should be ignored based on
- RFC 3748 Sect. 4.2
-- test compilation with gcc -W options (more warnings?)
- (Done once; number of unused function arguments still present)
-- add proper support for using dot11RSNAConfigSATimeout
-- ctrl_iface: get/set/remove blob
-- use doc/docbook/*.sgml and docbook2{txt,html,pdf} to replace README and
- web pages including the same information.. i.e., have this information only
- in one page; how to build a PDF file with all the SGML included?
-- test wait-for-interface and daemonize combinations with number of driver
- interfaces
- * 'test' worked with WPA-PSK
-- EAP-POTP/RSA SecurID profile (draft-nystrom-eap-potp-03.txt)
-- document wpa_gui build and consider adding it to 'make install'
-- test madwifi with pairwise=TKIP group=WEP104
-- possibility to link in WPA Authenticator state machine to wpa_supplicant
- (new STAKey handshake, WPA2 IBSS)
-- consider merging hostapd and wpa_supplicant PMKSA cache implementations
-- add support for configuring password for MSCHAPv2 as NtPasswordHash in
- the same way as was added to hostapd (hash:<hex value>)
-- test_driver: configure directory and create AP-<mac> and STA-<mac> files
- there to allow scanning multiple APs (e.g., for testing pre-auth and PMKSA
- caching testing) and to exchange STA-STA EAPOL frames
-- consider adding generic buffer functionality that could be used in number
- of places
- * allocate buffer (with default max size), allow reserving head room to
- make it possible to add a header without having to reallocate buffer
- * reallocate buffer (add head and/or tail room)
- * ref count and free when count=0 ?
- * add data (to tail): re-alloc more tailroom if needed and copy new data
- * error flag so that caller can do multiple add()s and only in the end
- check whether something has failed; this should make error handling
- simpler
-- consider redesigning pending EAP requests (identity/password/otp from
- ctrl_iface) by moving the retrying of the previous request into EAP
- state machine so that EAPOL state machine is not needed for this
-- rfc4284.txt (network selection for eap)
-- www pages about configuring wpa_supplicant:
- * global options (ap_scan, ctrl_interfaces) based on OS/driver
- * network block
- * key_mgmt selection
- * WPA parameters
- * EAP options (one page for each method)
- * "configuration wizard" (step 1: select OS, step 2: select driver, ...) to
- generate example configuration
-- error path in rsn_preauth_init: should probably deinit l2_packet handlers
- if something fails; does something else need deinit?
-- consider moving SIM card functionality (IMSI fetching) away from eap.c;
- this should likely happen before EAP is initialized for authentication;
- now IMSI is read only after receiving EAP-Identity/Request, but since it is
- really needed for all cases, reading IMSI and generating Identity string
- could very well be done before EAP has been started
-- test all allowed EAP Phase 2 methods (i.e., anything else than PEAP, TTLS,
- FAST): SIM AKA PAX PSK LEAP; if these work, include in eap_testing.txt; if
- not, either fix or make eap_allowed_phase2_type reject
-- try to work around race in receiving association event and first EAPOL
- message
-- helper function to do memcmp(addr, "\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00", ETH_ALEN)
-- add wpa_secure_memzero() macro and secure implementation (volatile u8*) to
- clear memory; this would be used to clear temporary buffers containing
- private data (e.g., keys); the macro can be defined to NOP in order to save
- space (i.e., no code should depend on the macro doing something)
-- make sure that TLS session cache is not shared between EAP types or if it
- is, that the cache entries are bound to only one EAP type; e.g., cache entry
- created with EAP-TLS must not be allowed to do fast re-auth with EAP-TTLS
-- consider moving eap_tls_build_ack() call into eap_tls_process_helper()
- (it seems to be called always if helper returns 1)
- * could need to modify eap_{ttls,peap,fast}_decrypt to do same
-- add support for fetching full user cert chain from Windows certificate
- stores even when there are intermediate CA certs that are not in the
- configured ca_cert store (e.g., ROOT) (they could be, e.g., in CA store)
-
-
-0.6.x branch:
-- clean up common.[ch]
-- change TLS/crypto library interface to use a structure of function
- pointers and helper inline functions (like driver_ops) instead of
- requiring every TLS wrapper to implement all functions
-- move from CVS to git (0.3.x, 0.4.x, 0.5.x releases will continue
- to be updated only on CVS)
-- move files into subdirectories and combine wpa_supplicant and hostapd
- into a repository that matches in directory structure with the release
- tarballs
- (subdirs: eap_common, eap_peer, eap_server, driver, driver_ap, ...)
-- make it clearer that EAP server/peer can be used as a separate library
- for other programs
-- add support for encrypted configuration fields (e.g., password, psk,
- passphrase, pin)
-- wpa_gui: add support for setting and showing priority, id_str, auth_alg
- (open/shared for static WEP)
