NetworkManager did not pin a certificate’s subject to an ESSID. A rogue access point could therefore be used to conduct MITM attacks by using any other valid certificate issued by same CA as used in the original network (CVE-2006-7246). This has been fixed.
Please note that existing WPA2 Enterprise connections need to be deleted and re-created to take advantage of the new security checks.
