Is this update in the pipeline and is WiFi OK to use for non-critical activities in the meantime ?
Thanks

Re: KRACK Vulnerability and WPA_supllicant update
Wifi is just as secure today as it was yesterday
No idea if/when RH will release fixed packages but this appears to be a vulnerability that was reported privately some time ago to give vendors time to prepare updates so hopefully it won't be long.

The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.

I don't see an updated wpa_supplicant in RHEL 7. The newest version seems to be dated 01 Aug 2017. As for if it's OK to use, it's up to you.
