Binary package hint: gnome-keyring-manager
When a user change his session password inside Ubuntu, the "default" keyring password isn't updated so all keys and password that are on this keyring become unavailable without the old user password, including keys for wireless networks.
That means that laptop users won't be able to connect to their wireless networks if they change their session password because they'll have to remove the "default" keyring and create another with the good password, and type again ALL wireless network keys in order to get connected to their protected wireless networks. Or else the user can type is old password each time he wants to connect on a wireless networks, but that's very bad because lamda users won't know what to do when gnome-keyring will ask them for a password they don't know.
A fix for this bug should be to update users-admin tool to also change the password for the default keyring when the user change his session password. This fix would probably not work is the user changes his password with another tool than users-admin
Another fix would be to find a way to make gnome-keyring use current user password for the special "default" keyring and not in his own keyring passwords. I think that this fix should work under every circumstances if that fix is possible. |
Binary package hint: gnome-keyring-manager
When a user change his session password inside Ubuntu Gutsy, the "default" keyring password isn't updated so all keys and password that are on this keyring become unavailable without the old user password, including keys for wireless networks.
That means that laptop users won't be able to connect to their wireless networks if they change their session password because they'll have to remove the "default" keyring and create another with the good password, and type again ALL wireless network keys in order to get connected to their protected wireless networks. Or else the user can type is old password each time he wants to connect on a wireless networks, but that's very bad because lamda users won't know what to do when gnome-keyring will ask them for a password they don't know.

Another fix would be to find a way to make gnome-keyring use current user password for the special "default" keyring and not in his own keyring passwords. I think that this fix should work under every circumstances if that fix is possible.
Steps to reproduce that bug are :
1. Take a laptop that can connect to WEP/WPA wifi networks with a clean Linux Ubuntu Gutsy install on it
2. Connect to a WEP or WPA protected network and type the key to access the network
3. The key for the network is saved in the "default" keyring and Ubuntu won't ask you again to access this network
4. Change you user password in System / Administration / Users and Groups
5. Reboot your computer and login again, ubuntu should now ask you for a password to unlock the "default" keyring which still uses your old session password. |
