CVE-2020-10754

When a user connects to a network using this profile, the authentication does not happen and the connection is made insecurely.

MEDIUM 4.3EPSS 0.99%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.99%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

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.
