Format string vulnerability in the nminfohandler function in Network Manager may allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in a Wireless Access Point identifier, which is not properly handled in a syslog call.
NetworkManager 0.9.x does not pin a certificate's subject to an ESSID when 802.11X authentication is used.
In NetworkManager 0.9.2.0, when a new wireless network was created with WPA/WPA2 security in AdHoc mode, it created an open/insecure network.
NetworkManager 0.9 and earlier allows local users to use other users' certificates or private keys when making a connection via the file path when adding a new connection.
It was found that nmcli, a command line interface to NetworkManager did not honour 802-1x.ca-path and 802-1x.phase2-ca-path settings, when creating a new profile. When a user connects to a network using this profile, the authentication does not happen and the connection is made insecurely.
