Title: Password re-entry popup does not appear on incorrect password entry with WPA3 networks Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in network-manager source package in Jammy: New Status in network-manager source package in Noble: New Status in network-manager source package in Plucky: New Status in network-manager source package in Questing: In Progress Bug description: SRU Justification: [ Impact ] Users who input an incorrect password to a WPA3-SAE Wi-Fi network will not receive a prompt to enter a new password when the authentication fails - instead, the connection will fail silently, and the user will need to "forget" the saved profile and try a fresh connection attempt. [ Test Plan ] 1. Set up a WPA3-SAE access point 2. On your test device, attempt to connect to the WPA3-SAE access point with the wrong password Expected behavior: User should be presented with a dialog to re-enter the password Actual behavior (without patch): The connection attempt will fail silently, and the user is never presented with an option to re-enter the password. As a result, they must forget the saved connection profile and try a fresh connection attempt. [ Fix ] Add new signal handlers that will prompt for a new secret if a disconnection is reported from wpa_supplicant via the PskMismatch dbus signal [ Where problems could occur ] Existing auth failure related code paths within NetworkManager should not be impacted by this change, since this change only adds a new signal handling function for PskMismatch. If a user is within range of a WPA3 AP that they have an incorrect password saved for, this bug fix will cause NM to prompt for a new password. If the secret manager agent is blocking, this behavior may be unexpected (but still totally correct) to the user.
