Public bug reported:

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").
