Hi

A update from Ubuntu would be ideal but failing that I wonder if
manually installing the wpasupplicant deb from xenial or recompiling it
would work?

- https://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial-updates/wpasupplicant

It would be a shame if this security issue is going to cause still
working phones to be rendered too insecure to be usable.

All the best

Chris
