[Bug 905748] Re: Create WPA2 adhoc is Open, not encrypted

 

Philipp Gassmann, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't
been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc3

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  Create WPA2 adhoc is Open, not encrypted

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “network-manager-applet” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  When I create a new network with networkmanager, select wpa2 personal
  and enter a password, the network that gets created is actually Open.
  In the connection information on Ubuntu, the network ist shown as WPA2
  secured, but I can connect with other devices without entering any
  key. The network is discovered on windows and on Android (CM7) as
  OPEN!

  Using ubuntu 11.10, network-manager 0.9.1.90-0ubuntu5.1

  I couldn't find any reference to this behaviour on the net or in the bug tracker.
  bug 322902 seems similar

  Note: With standard Android, it's not possible to connect to an adhoc
  wifi. With cyanogenmod or other mods it's possible.
