commit: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=a8fbe67b9b165c3bd6cad98b8eed10dade3c4e9d
branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

Fixes the following security issue for the internal TLS backend:

- CVE-2021-30004: In wpa_supplicant and hostapd 2.9, forging attacks may
  occur because AlgorithmIdentifier parameters are mishandled in tls/pkcs1.c
  and tls/x509v3.c.

+Subject: [PATCH] ASN.1: Validate DigestAlgorithmIdentifier parameters
+
+The supported hash algorithms do not use AlgorithmIdentifier parameters.
+However, there are implementations that include NULL parameters in
+addition to ones that omit the parameters. Previous implementation did
+not check the parameters value at all which supported both these cases,
+but did not reject any other unexpected information.
+
+Use strict validation of digest algorithm parameters and reject any
+unexpected value when validating a signature. This is needed to prevent
+potential forging attacks.
