I'm using bookworm and connected to wifi using WPA3-Personal right now.

$ sudo wpa_cli -i wlp2s0 status
bssid=<elided>
freq=5520
ssid=<elided>
id=0
mode=station
wifi_generation=5
pairwise_cipher=CCMP
group_cipher=CCMP
key_mgmt=SAE        <--- SAE here is WPA3-Personal
pmf=1
mgmt_group_cipher=BIP
sae_group=19
sae_h2e=0
sae_pk=0
wpa_state=COMPLETED
ip_address=192.168.1.101
p2p_device_address=<elided>
address=<elided>
uuid=<elided>
ieee80211ac=1

I'm using NetworkManager here, but it also uses wpa_supplicant for this
(I did not change NM's default here; wpa_cli is for wpasupplicant).  So
if you're having issues connecting to a WPA3 AP, you'll have better
results by describing what actual problem you're getting.
