Title:
wpa can't connect to servers using TLS 1.1 or older
Status in wpa package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in wpa source package in Jammy:
Fix Released
Status in wpa package in Debian:
Fix Released
Bug description:
* Impact
wpa built with in openssl3 fails to connect to TLS 1.1 or lower server
* Test case
try to connect to a TLS <= 1.1 access point
* Regression potential
the patch lowers the security level in some situation for compatibility, it
shouldn't prevent connecting to newer hardware, still try to connect to
different type of wifi with different security levels
-----------------------------------------------
those uses MD5-SHA1 as digest in its signature algorithm which no
longer meets OpenSSL default level of security of 80 bits
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/hostap/2022-May/040563.html
Workaround are described in #22 and #36 by basically using
CipherString = DEFAULT@SECLEVEL=0
which lowers the security level
-------
With the current jammy version of wpasupplicant (2:2.10-1), I cannot
connect to the WPA Enterprise network eduroam, which is used by
Universities worldwide. I get a "Connection failed" message or a
request to re-enter the password.
- I've re-tried the credentials: no fix ;-)
- Tried a 21.10 live session on the same machine: works fine!
- Manually downgraded wpasupplicant to the impish version
(2:2.9.0-21build1): connected normally.
- Upgraded wpasupplicant to the latest version: fails to connect
again.
