Description Luke Macken 2008-07-30 22:44:47 UTC
Description of problem:
I'm getting the following denials when NetworkManager first starts up:

host=x300 type=AVC msg=audit(1217456966.80:15): avc: denied { read } for
pid=3116 comm="dhclient" name="nm-dhclient-wlan1.conf" dev=dm-1 ino=30983
scontext=system_u:system_r:dhcpc_t:s0
tcontext=system_u:object_r:NetworkManager_var_run_t:s0 tclass=file host=x300
type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1217456966.80:15): arch=c000003e syscall=2 success=no
exit=-13 a0=7fffa789aed7 a1=0 a2=67a4c0 a3=3d55967a70 items=0 ppid=1 pid=3116
auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0
tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm="dhclient" exe="/sbin/dhclient"
subj=system_u:system_r:dhcpc_t:s0 key=(null).
host=x300 type=AVC msg=audit(1217457096.914:28): avc: denied { getattr } for
pid=3464 comm="dhclient" path="/var/run/nm-dhclient-wlan1.conf" dev=dm-1
ino=30983 scontext=unconfined_u:system_r:dhcpc_t:s0
tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:NetworkManager_var_run_t:s0 tclass=file host=x300
type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1217457096.914:28): arch=c000003e syscall=5 success=no
exit=-13 a0=4 a1=7ffff2d63630 a2=7ffff2d63630 a3=0 items=0 ppid=1 pid=3464
auid=500 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none)
ses=1 comm="dhclient" exe="/sbin/dhclient" subj=unconfined_u:system_r:dhcpc_t:s0
key=(null).

Which seem to be resolved with the following policy addition:

    allow dhcpc_t NetworkManager_var_run_t:file { read getattr };
