This update for wpa_supplicant fixes the following issues :

  - Several vulnerabilities in standard conforming     implementations of the WPA2 protocol have been     discovered and published under the code name KRACK. This     update remedies those issues in a backwards compatible     manner, i.e. the updated wpa_supplicant can interface     properly with both vulnerable and patched     implementations of WPA2, but an attacker won't be able     to exploit the KRACK weaknesses in those connections     anymore even if the other party is still vulnerable.
    [bsc#1056061, CVE-2017-13078, CVE-2017-13079,     CVE-2017-13080, CVE-2017-13081, CVE-2017-13087,     CVE-2017-13088]
