feat(wifi): Protect the captive portal AP with WPA2/WPA3 by default - #562
Configure the captive-portal network name and password in Access Point settings or with serial commands.
Choose the default password, set a custom password, or make the network open. The default password is openshock; custom passwords must be 8–63 printable ASCII characters. Network names must be 1–32 characters and cannot contain |.
The default network name includes the hub’s MAC address. Changes take effect the next time the captive portal starts; a factory reset restores the default password.
The portal’s Ready message shows the network name and protection status, but not the password. Passwords appear in JSON exports only when sensitive data is enabled.
Bug Fixes
Wi-Fi password buttons now require a valid password before enabling submission.
…t password
The captive portal now uses wifi.accessPointSSID (saved but never applied before; the default still gets the MAC appended) and protects its network with WPA2 when wifi.accessPointPassword is set. A factory reset clears the password. Set over serial with ap ssid, ap password and ap open.
Closes#242
…sword
A protected AP runs WPA2/WPA3 transition mode, so WPA3 clients get SAE even with a public password.
The new Kconfig option OPENSHOCK_FW_AP_PASSWORD (default "openshock") applies when none is stored and after a factory reset; `ap open` still opens it.

It looks like this branch is under active development. To avoid overwhelming you with review comments due to an influx of new commits, CodeRabbit has automatically paused this review. You can configure this behavior by changing the reviews.auto_review.auto_pause_after_reviewed_commits setting.
The captive portal now uses configurable access-point SSID and password settings. The settings are validated and persisted, and users can inspect or change them through serial commands or the advanced settings UI. Ready messages report the SSID and protection type without including the password.
WiFiConfig adds an access-point password with a configurable default, validation, JSON and NVS persistence, and getters and setters. Shared Wi-Fi constants and printable-ASCII checks support validation. Host tests cover defaults, invalid values, JSON redaction, and persistence.
Apply settings at portal startup components/core/include/wifi/AccessPoint.h, components/core/src/wifi/AccessPoint.cpp, components/captive_portal/src/captiveportal/Manager.cpp
Portal startup uses the configured SSID and password. The default SSID has a MAC suffix. An empty password selects open authentication; a nonempty password selects WPA2/WPA3. Startup waits for queued AP events before reading the interface name.
Report settings in Ready messages components/serialization/include/serialization/_fbs/HubToLocalMessage_generated.h, components/core/src/serialization/WSLocal.cpp, frontend/src/lib/_fbs/open-shock/serialization/local/*, frontend/src/lib/mappers/*, schemas
Ready messages include the configured SSID, default SSID, and protection type. The serialized settings do not include the password. Frontend mapping supports messages without access-point settings.
Configure settings through API, serial, and frontend components/captive_portal/src/captiveportal/ApiHandlers.cpp, components/serial_console/include/serial_console/command_handlers/index.h, components/serial_console/src/command_handlers/accesspoint.cpp, frontend/src/lib/api.ts, frontend/src/lib/components/sections/AccessPointSection.svelte, frontend/src/lib/views/Advanced.svelte, .changes/ap-name-and-password.md
PUT /api/ap and the serial ap commands configure access-point settings. The advanced settings UI validates and submits changes. The settings apply at the next portal start.
Fresh checkouts currently fail, and a client that can reach the portal can change its future access-point credentials without additional authorization. Resolve those issues and the portal-startup race before merging.

Reject | in access point SSIDs at the validator.
ap prints the stored SSID with %s in AccessPoint|%s|%s|%s (accesspoint.cpp:26). An SSID that contains | adds a field to the record. A reader that takes fields by position then reads the classification and protection values from the wrong fields.
IsValidAccessPointSSID is the single check for every source of the AP SSID. The serial setter, JSON load, and NVS load all pass through it, either directly or through Normalize(). Rejecting | there covers all three sources.
A stored SSID that contains | falls back to the default prefix on the next load or stage. The Normalize() warning reports this fallback.
Update the handler error text so it names the new rule:
- SERPR_ERROR("Invalid SSID (must be 1-32 characters)");+ SERPR_ERROR("Invalid SSID (must be 1-32 characters, without '|')");

Assert that the AP password is absent from redacted JSON.
The redaction test checks station secrets and a lowercase password substring. The AP password key is accessPointPassword, which uses a capital P, so the substring check does not match it. The test also never checks the sample value ap-s3cret!. If the AP password export ignored withSensitiveData, this test would still pass.

Read back the stored AP SSID and password in the round-trip test.
The new setter calls check only their true return values. The round-trip comparison matches two snapshots taken around Reload(). A setter that returns true without storing the value leaves both snapshots unchanged, so the comparison still passes. The nonempty password write in the refusal test has the same gap: the clear that follows masks a no-op write.

…works when the password won't read
The name can't contain '|', which `ap` prints as a field separator.
The password must be printable ASCII, so a NUL can't cut it short in the driver.
An unreadable stored password falls back to the default instead of failing the load and wiping saved networks.
The release note no longer claims WPA3 protects against someone who knows the public password.

…ange restarts it
Enabling the AP starts it with its old config, and setting the configured name or password restarts it: stopped, its netif removed from lwIP, started again under a new name. The portal took the first start's signal and read the name mid-restart, got nothing, and failed its first start after every boot with a protected AP. It now lets the event loop handle both starts before reading the name.
…ptive portal
A new Access Point section shows the saved name and protection and sets a name (empty for the default), the default password, an own password, or an open network. It saves through PUT /api/ap in one config write; the change applies the next time the portal starts, so the client on the access point keeps its connection. The Ready message carries the name and protection, never the password.

…onfig section
The config section goes back to a plain struct with Get/Set accessors, like
the hostname. What the stored values mean at runtime now lives in core/wifi:
- wifi/AccessPoint.h interprets them in one place: IsDefaultSSID, DefaultSSID
(prefix + STA MAC), BroadcastSSID and ProtectionOf (open/default/custom).
The portal, the Ready message and the serial `ap` command call it instead
of each deriving the name and protection kind themselves.
- wifi/WiFiConstants.h holds the 802.11/WPA limits, built on ESP-IDF's
MAX_SSID_LEN and MAX_PASSPHRASE_LEN, replacing the 32/8/63/64 literals and
the [33] SSID buffers in core and the portal handlers.
The frontend mirrors the same checks through wifiValidation.ts helpers
(byte-counted lengths, '|' and control characters, printable ASCII
passphrases) instead of inline regexes, and the WiFi entry buttons use the
shared passphrase check.

…ors to the AP helper
Config::ResetWiFiAccessPointSSID() and ResetWiFiAccessPointPassword() put
the build defaults back, so the portal API and the serial `ap` command no
longer pass the Kconfig macros through the setters to mean "default".
The SSID and password checks move from the config section to
wifi/AccessPoint.h as AccessPoint::IsValidSSID/IsValidPassword, next to the
rest of the code that interprets the stored values. They stay constexpr, so
the compile-time asserts on the Kconfig defaults keep working. They sit in
core rather than next to the hostname validator in common because they use
WiFiConstants.h, which depends on esp_wifi.
The config host tests cover the resets round-tripping through NVS.
…h event-loop flush to its marker
Review follow-ups on the access point section:
- PUT /api/ap now answers {"ssid", "protection"} as the hub reads what it
saved, and the portal takes that over what it submitted. A name equal to
the bare prefix or a password equal to the build default are the defaults
on the hub, so mirroring the submitted values could drift from the Ready
message.
- waitForEventLoop posts a sequence number with its flush marker and waits
for that one. A marker left over from a call that timed out could
otherwise satisfy the next call early, before the AP restart it was
waiting on had run.
- The access point form compares the untrimmed name too, so a saved name of
only spaces is not shown as changed and sent back empty.
