It seems this is also applicable to ubuntu bionic since openssl 1.1.1 landed in bionic-updates. We have bionic clients that cannot connect to the enterprise wifi because they attempt TLS 1.3. Recompiling openssl with the "no-tls1_3" Configure option fixes the problem. See also https://github.com/FreeRADIUS/freeradius-server/issues/2385
** Bug watch added: github.com/FreeRADIUS/freeradius-server/issues #2385 https://github.com/FreeRADIUS/freeradius-server/issues/2385 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to wpa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1823053 Title: wpasupplicant 2.6 w/ openssl 1.1.1 triggers TLSv1.3 version intolerance on WPA2-Enterprise networks on Cosmic and Disco Status in wpa package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Ubuntu 18.10 "Cosmic" and 19.04 "Disco" currently ship with both wpasupplicant 2.6 and openssl/libssl 1.1.1, although upstream only supports OpenSSL 1.1.1 starting with wpasupplicant 2.7. OpenSSL 1.1.1 introduced support for TLS 1.3, and introduced new APIs to configure the parameters governing TLS connections using TLS >= 1.3. OpenSSL also decided that it would enable TLS 1.3 by default even for software that had only been built for libssl <= 1.1.0 and hence couldn't "know" about the new APIs. This leads to a situation where software that was designed/built for OpenSSL 1.1.0 and TLS 1.2 will also offer TLS 1.3, without any possibility for end users to disable such behavior. One case where this causes problems is wpasupplicant: wpasupplicant 2.7 officially introduced support for OpenSSL 1.1.1, which mainly consists of disabling TLS 1.3 by default and adding a configuration flag allowing end users to selectively enable it for connections when they see fit. wpasupplicant 2.6, however, as shipped with Ubuntu 18.10 and 19.04, does not offer such a possibility, and hence tries negotiating TLS 1.3 (alongside with older versions all the way down to TLS 1.0). Sadly, there are RADIUS servers which suffer from TLS version intolerance and will refuse authentication when the client offers TLS 1.3. I know of such a case with a German university's eduroam wifi, but I doubt this is the only case where this causes problems. As a dirty stopgap measure, I've installed the wpasupplicant 2.7 package from Debian Buster (https://packages.debian.org/buster/wpasupplicant), and I've asked the NOC at the affected university to upgrade/reconfigure their RADIUS server to make the version intolerance go away - but still, this is a bug that should be fixed in Ubuntu, preferably by backporting wpasupplicant 2.7.
