Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu
better.  I have unmarked it as a security issue since this bug does not
show evidence of allowing privilege boundaries to be crossed nor
directly leading to data/privacy loss.  Wireless networking is
inherently insecure, so this is not really a failing of NetworkManager.
Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.

** Visibility changed to: Public
