Description :
wpa_supplicant is a WPA Supplicant for Linux, BSD and Windows with support
for WPA and WPA2 (IEEE 802.11i / RSN). Supplicant is the IEEE 802.1X/WPA

Update Information:
A buffer overflow flaw was found in the debugging code of Fedora's version of wpa_supplicant. This can be triggered by those using NetworkManager.
It is recommended that users of wpa_supplicant or NetworkManager update to this package (and the accompanying NetworkManager packages) which removes the affected debug code.
