This might be an issue in network-manager-applet (which is a GNOME package) or in an icon theme that does not fall back to (inherit from) that packages's own icons. All we do in mate-panel is display it.

Does the issue still exists?

@raveit65 I am on the latest release of Linux Mint and confirm the issue no longer exists. I verified the VPN icon worked from a Wifi and Ethernet connection. System information below:
