Re: [PATCH] ap/drv_callbacks: in hostapd_notif_assoc, !ACCEPT ≠ REJECT

Hi,

hostapd_check_acl can only return PENDING if macaddr_acl == USE_EXTERNAL_RADIUS_AUTH.

In that case, either
a) hostapd_allowed_address is used before and so the RADIUS reply came in before
   association is completed and hostapd_notif_assoc is called or
b) hostapd_allowed_address is not called (e.g. SME in driver) and so
   macaddr_acl == USE_EXTERNAL_RADIUS_AUTH is not implemented.

In case b) this change would accept a station bypassing RADIUS, while currently admin would need to choose a different macaddr_acl value to disable RADIUS withmacaddr_acl
when using SME in driver.

Right?

Regards,
M. Braun

The commit

hostapd: Process MAC ACLs on a station association event (SME in driver)

added a MAC ACL check to hostapd_notif_assoc. This check disconnects the client if the response is not ACCEPT, but the function can actually return PENDING too, as in the case of 802.1x MAC-based auth. It feels like the author probably meant to disconnect the client if the response is REJECT,
but not ACCEPT or PENDING instead.
