Title:
  OpenSSL 3.0 transition might lead to unsupported protocols

Status in wpa package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  OpenSSL 3.0, which is planned to land in the archive Very Soon™, has
  moved quite a few algorithms to its "legacy" provider, which isn't
  loaded by default. Some of those algorithms are used in various
  protocols implemented by wpa_supplicant, so it's likely that the
  package will be broken in this regard.

  Sadly, this isn't caught by either the build-time tests nor the
  autopkgtests.

  A first good step would be to patch wpa_supplicant to load the
  "legacy" provider (and the default one too, cf
  https://www.openssl.org/docs/manmaster/man7/crypto.html , look for
  "legacy").
