*** This bug is a security vulnerability ***
You have been subscribed to a public security bug by Marc Deslauriers
(mdeslaur):
With an 802.1x wireless network, network-manager will store the password
in gnome-keyring, even if the option “Ask for this password every time”
is checked.
Obviously it should not be storing the password unless password storage
is requested.
