Public bug reported:

Broadcom BCM43xx Wi-Fi chips allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary
code via unspecified vectors, aka the "Broadpwn" issue.

Cypress (was Broadcom) have given the Raspberry Pi foundation new
releases of the WiFi and Bluetooth firmware to fix the problem.  See
https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/issues/1342#issuecomment-321221748

The pre-release files found at the above link are now included in the
latest release of raspbian stretch.

Would it be possible to include these new files in the linux-firmware
package?  Please note at the moment the package is missing the file
brcmfmac43430-sdio.txt.  Without this file the wifi does not work on the
raspberry pi 3.

** Affects: linux-firmware (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
