Hostapd-mana doesnt show SSID'S

I'm using the patched version of hostapd from the mana-toolkit (https://github.com/sensepost/hostapd-mana) to generate Access Points for Probe Requests.

But if I get my smartphone to connect with hostapd I get the following messages:

wlan0: STA xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx IEEE 802.11: authenticated

wlan0: STA xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx IEEE 802.11: associated (aid 1)

wlan0: AP-STA-CONNECTED xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx

KARMA: Successful association of xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx to ESSID '(null)'

So the association and connection works. But the ESSID should be "test123". I want it to display there to gather informations and use them elsewhere.

Is there any known fix to this? I haven't found anything yet and even tried different versions of hostapd resulting in the same problem.

Solution

  • Apparently it's fixed in the new version according to singe himself:
