The broadcom-sta driver package is marked as insecure due to CVE-2019-9501 and CVE-2019-9502 (heap buffer overflow vulnerabilities allowing remote code execution). The driver is also unmaintained and incompatible with modern Linux kernel security mitigations. Removed broadcom_sta from extraModulePackages and the corresponding "wl" kernel module. This resolves test failures where Nixpkgs refuses to evaluate configurations containing this insecure package.
Apple MacBook Pro 11,1
This configuration is tested on my 13" MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013), model number A1502.
The 6.11.5 kernel appears to work well with only minor adjustments on this notebook. Note that my machine has a BCM4360 wireless card (PCI-ID 14e4:43a0) which appears to only work with the nonfree wl driver.
