Description
A flaw was found in nmcli, where the command-line interface to the NetworkManager did not accept the 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 an insecure connection occurs.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
