You need to specify the WEP key before bringing up the interface.
Something like this should work (substitute your WEP key for KEY)

wlanctl-ng wlan0 dot11req_mibset mibattribute=dot11PrivacyInvoked=true
wlanctl-ng wlan0 dot11req_mibset mibattribute=dot11WEPDefaultKey0=KEY
wlanctl-ng wlan0 dot11req_mibset mibattribute-dot11WEPDefaultKeyID=0
