No release details have been provided. If you have a Ubuntu system that
matches, you can use `apport-collect 2138557` so fields auto-populate,
or manually add the details yourself.

Title:
  Wifi passwords entered during OEM install are still present after
  "Prepare for shipping to end user"

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  My workflow is to install via the OEM installation method, and run a
  post-install script on every machine. Usually it's laptops, so I
  connect them to my home-Wifi because this way I can also make sure
  that Wifi is actually working for the person to receive the laptop.
  When I'm done, I run the "Prepare for shipping to end user" thing from
  desktop.

  The bug is that the "Prepare for shipping to end user" does not wipe
  the saved Wifi connections, so people who receive this laptop will
  have my home Wifi saved in their brand new system.
