From 1778092e1739155acec35a3bccee2fb8a1ae4e91 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jouni Malinen Date: Fri, 27 Mar 2009 20:52:47 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] nl80211: Require auth type for NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE NL80211_ATTR_AUTH_TYPE is a required parameter for NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE. We are currently (by chance) defaulting to open system authentication if the attribute is not specified. It is better to just reject the invalid command.
