Title:
  Unencrypted private keys are insecure error reported even when key is
  encrypted

Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When I enter an EAP-TLS wifi config, I get the error:

  "Unencrypted private keys are insecure
  The selected private key does not appear to be protected by a password.  This 
could allow your security credentials to be compromised.  Please select a 
password-protected private key.

  (You can password-protect your private key with openssl)"

  I have verified that my key is, in fact, encrypted, and I have tried
  using both des3 and aes256. I have also verified the password used to
  encrypt the key.

  For a while, it wouldn't even let me save the config. I managed to
  save it eventually, but now when I try to connect to the saved
  connection, I get the same error.

  I am on Ubuntu mate 16.04
