Fake, but valid, Wireguard configuration file
SUMMARY
Importing a WireGuard conf file fails when any of the following conditions
occurs:
- The filename exceeds 15 characters long.
- The filename contains blanks.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a WireGuard conf file and save it as vpn.conf. You can also use the
attached fake vpn.conf file.
2. Go to NetworkManager editor and click on the plus sign to "Add a new
connection".
3. Choose the "Import VPN connection..." option at the bottom within the Other
section.
4. This will succeed.
5. Rename the file as "123456789123456.conf" and repeat steps 1 to 3. It should
show an error with the message "Failed to import VPN connection: The file to
import wasn’t a valid OpenVPN client configuration".
6. Rename the file as "12345678912345.conf" and repeat steps 1 to 3. It should
work!
7. Rename the file as "vpn 1.conf" and repeat steps 1 to 3. It should fail with
the same error message as in step 5.
OBSERVED RESULT
Only when filenames don't contain blanks and are 15 or less characters long,
importing conf files succeeds.
EXPECTED RESULT
It should work with any filename of any length supported by the OS.
