Title:
  NetworkManager does not support AES-encrypted private keys for WPA
  802.1x authentication

Status in NetworkManager:
  Confirmed
Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in network-manager source package in Bionic:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  * Impact

  Selecting AES-{192,256}-CBC keys to connect isn't working

  * Test case

  1. Start with a working (cleartext or DES-3) private key/cert for a network.  
Set up a connection and verify that everything works.
  2. Re-encrypt the key with AES-256 with this command: "openssl rsa -in 
working-key.pem -out aes-key.pem -aes256" (the output should have a line 
starting with "DEK-Info: AES-256-CBC,")
  3. Delete the settings for the test network and attempt to reconnect using 
the new key. 

  That should work

  * Regression potential

  That's new code for an extra type of keys, it shouldn't impact
  existing options

  --------------

  NetworkManager does not appear to support private keys encrypted with
  AES.  At the very least, it will not validate such a key in nm-util
  when setting up a WPA 802.1x TLS wifi connection.
