[PATCH 1/2] mac80211: flush keys when stopping AP

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

Since hostapd will remove keys this isn't usually
an issue, but we shouldn't leak keys to the next
BSS started on the same interface. For VLANs this
also fixes a bug, keys that aren't removed would
otherwise be leaked.
