Here are the details from the Slackware 15.0 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/wpa_supplicant-2.10-i586-2_slack15.0.txz: Rebuilt.
 Patched the implementation of PEAP in wpa_supplicant to prevent an
 authentication bypass. For a successful attack, wpa_supplicant must be
 configured to not verify the network's TLS certificate during Phase 1
 authentication, and an eap_peap_decrypt vulnerability can then be abused
 to skip Phase 2 authentication. The attack vector is sending an EAP-TLV
 Success packet instead of starting Phase 2. This allows an adversary to
 impersonate Enterprise Wi-Fi networks.
