PMF is controlled from AP side over which - mine is always PMF required with SAE, for instance, even if it's optional for WPA-PSK on the same SSID. (that's a configurable option) PMF should be enabled if at all possible. PMF optional : mode 1 - recommended as long as the driver supports it, and pmf 2 - required - should be the other choice. PMF disabled is only for systems where security is not an issue or the driver is known not to function. It should raise a security alert if PMF is disabled.

On one side this fixes SAE / WPA3 personal support on the other, you still can't edit or update WPA3 connections in the GUI components. If you use nmtui or try connecting to WPA3 though, it works.

(this isn't the first laptop I've seen this problem on either) Every time the hardware crashes and resets, network-manager treats this as a security abort and asks (erroneously) for network credentials. a: this disrupts all running program and puts up a modal dialogue b: this is unnecessary, because above. c: this is a security risk because it will try (under normal circumstances) to hop networks until it finds an open one, and this can put the unit into a secure vulnerable state. I'm happy to help provide more info - this bug hits me anywhere up to several times an hour. recommend : this is a security risk / serious / blocking (fix asap) bug.
