Summary: SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/vmnet-natd "read" access to device /dev/vmnet8. Detailed Description: [SELinux is in permissive mode. This access was not denied.] SELinux has denied vmnet-natd "read" access to device /dev/vmnet8. /dev/vmnet8 is mislabeled, this device has the default label of the /dev directory, which should not happen. All Character and/or Block Devices should have a label. You can attempt to change the label of the file using restorecon -v '/dev/vmnet8'. If this device remains labeled device_t, then this is a bug in SELinux policy. Please file a bg report. If you look at the other similar devices labels, ls -lZ /dev/SIMILAR, and find a type that would work for /dev/vmnet8, you can use chcon -t SIMILAR_TYPE '/dev/vmnet8', If this fixes the problem, you can make this permanent by executing semanage fcontext -a -t SIMILAR_TYPE '/dev/vmnet8' If the restorecon changes the context, this indicates that the application that created the device, created it without using SELinux APIs. If you can figure out which application created the device, please file a bug report against this application. Allowing Access: Attempt restorecon -v '/dev/vmnet8' or chcon -t SIMILAR_TYPE '/dev/vmnet8' Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:vmware_host_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Context system_u:object_r:device_t:s0 Target Objects /dev/vmnet8 [ chr_file ] Source vmnet-natd Source Path /usr/bin/vmnet-natd Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.7.15-4.fc13 Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted MLS Enabled True Enforcing Mode Permissive Plugin Name device Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 2.6.31.5-127.fc12.x86_64 #1 SMP Sat Nov 7 21:11:14 EST 2009 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 9 First Seen Sat 17 Apr 2010 05:58:07 AM EDT Last Seen Sat 17 Apr 2010 09:19:16 AM EDT Local ID 39f765e4-76c9-412d-a405-84c80d3873b5 Line Numbers Raw Audit Messages node=(removed) type=AVC msg=audit(1271510356.792:87): avc: denied { read } for pid=1426 comm="vmnet-natd" path="/dev/vmnet8" dev=tmpfs ino=31639 scontext=system_u:system_r:vmware_host_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:device_t:s0 tclass=chr_file node=(removed) type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1271510356.792:87): arch=c000003e syscall=0 success=yes exit=82 a0=3 a1=7fff27bbcd70 a2=8000 a3=682d79656b706770 items=0 ppid=1 pid=1426 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm="vmnet-natd" exe="/usr/bin/vmnet-natd" subj=system_u:system_r:vmware_host_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash String generated from selinux-policy-3.7.15-4.fc13,device,vmnet-natd,vmware_host_t,device_t,chr_file,read audit2allow suggests: #============= vmware_host_t ============== allow vmware_host_t device_t:chr_file read;
