Just nice to have. Not a must. A completely non-previledged user shouldn't be able to change the system. Some previledges are required, and we use polkit permissions for that. Currently you need "org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.network-control" permissions. What is your use-case, and why does your user not have the required permission? a "get_applied_connection_async". Sorry. Yes, that makes sense... (In reply to Thomas Haller from comment #3) > a "get_applied_connection_async". Sorry. Yes, that makes sense... also because a non-prejudicial user can look at the connection profiles... The non-privileged user should able to see the applied connection profiles. merged to upstream master, before 1.28.0 https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/merge_requests/634 Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.
