wpa_supplicant is vulnerable to the Improper Authentication vulnerability. The vulnerability arises because wpa_supplicant can be configured to skip TLS certificate verification during Phase 1 authentication, and an eap_peap_decrypt vulnerability can then be exploited to bypass Phase 2 authentication. Attackers can exploit this by sending an EAP-TLV Success packet instead of initiating Phase 2, enabling them to impersonate Enterprise Wi-Fi networks.
