hostapd + openssl issue

[e9hack]

Hi,

I'm using hostapd with the radius server compiled in for wpa enterprise. This does no longer work since the openssl upgrade to 3.0. When a wpa enterprise client (Windows 10) tries to connect, the following error messages are shown in the log file:

Wed Mar  8 00:15:05 2023 daemon.notice hostapd: phy0-ap0: CTRL-EVENT-EAP-STARTED xx:xx:xx:13:a3:xx
Wed Mar  8 00:15:05 2023 daemon.notice hostapd: phy0-ap0: CTRL-EVENT-EAP-PROPOSED-METHOD vendor=0 method=1
Wed Mar  8 00:15:05 2023 daemon.notice hostapd: OpenSSL: Flushing X509 store with ca_cert file
Wed Mar  8 00:15:05 2023 daemon.notice hostapd: phy0-ap0: CTRL-EVENT-EAP-PROPOSED-METHOD vendor=0 method=25
Wed Mar  8 00:15:05 2023 daemon.err hostapd: OpenSSL: DES encrypt failed
Wed Mar  8 00:15:05 2023 daemon.notice hostapd: phy0-ap0: CTRL-EVENT-EAP-FAILURE xx:xx:xx:13:a3:xx

When using hostapd compiled with wolfssl I don't see such problems. Since not all packages (wget, libssh2) support wolfssl I still use openssl.
