When testing the PUK handling in ModemManager 1.4.6 I noticed some problems.
The PUK is triggered by trying to change the PIN with the wrong old PIN:
# mmcli -i 0 --change-pin 1111 --pin 0815
error: couldn't change PIN code in the SIM:
'GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.libmbim.Error.Status.Failure: Failure'
<repeated some times>
# mmcli -i 0 --change-pin 1111 --pin 0815
error: couldn't change PIN code in the SIM:
'GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.ModemManager1.Error.Core.WrongState: Need
to be unlocked to allow changing PIN'
Now the PUK is required. Problem 1: But this is not shown in the state
of SIM or modem:
# mmcli -m 0
/org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/0 (device id
'3e4e3d78ec186aa790387e228a2a8fbafaec4a48')

When trying to unlock the PUK everything works fine when the correct PUK
is sent. However, if I sent a wrong PUK the following happens:
# mmcli -i 0 --puk 1234 --pin 1234
successfully sent PUK code to the SIM
Problem 2: There is no indication that the PUK was wrong. But the PUK
lock remains active.
Is there something I'm missing in the API here? With this behaviour it
seems impossible to write client-side code supporting PUK unlocking with
failure handling.
