+Subject: SAE: Reject unsuitable groups based on REVmd changes
+
+The rules defining which DH groups are suitable for SAE use were
+accepted into IEEE 802.11 REVmd based on this document:
+https://mentor.ieee.org/802.11/dcn/19/11-19-0387-02-000m-addressing-some-sae-comments.docx
+
+Enforce those rules in production builds of wpa_supplicant and hostapd.
+CONFIG_TESTING_OPTIONS=y builds can still be used to select any o the
+implemented groups to maintain testing coverage.

+Subject: [PATCH 3/6] OpenSSL: Use BN_bn2binpad() or BN_bn2bin_padded() if
+ available
+
+This converts crypto_bignum_to_bin() to use the OpenSSL/BoringSSL
+functions BN_bn2binpad()/BN_bn2bin_padded(), when available, to avoid
+differences in runtime and memory access patterns depending on the
+leading bytes of the BIGNUM value.
+
+OpenSSL 1.0.2 and LibreSSL do not include such functions, so those cases
+are still using the previous implementation where the BN_num_bytes()
+call may result in different memory access pattern.

+Subject: [PATCH 6/6] dragonfly: Disable use of groups using Brainpool curves
+
+Disable groups that use Brainpool curves for now since they leak more
+timing information due to the prime not being close to a power of two.
+This removes use of groups 28, 29, and 30 from SAE and EAP-pwd.
+
+Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>
+(cherry picked from commit 876c5eaa6dae1a87a17603fc489a44c29eedc2e3)
