Description of problem: This morning after turning on my laptop I got a SELinux denial. Your system may be seriously compromised! /usr/sbin/NetworkManager tried to load a kernel module. node=(removed) type=AVC msg=audit(1305182229.634:19): avc: denied { sys_module } for pid=1644 comm="NetworkManager" capability=16 scontext=system_u:system_r:NetworkManager_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:NetworkManager_t:s0 tclass=capability node=(removed) type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1305182229.634:19): arch=40000003 syscall=54 success=no exit=-19 a0=d a1=8915 a2=bfea853c a3=bfea853c items=0 ppid=1 pid=1644 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm="NetworkManager" exe="/usr/sbin/NetworkManager" subj=system_u:system_r:NetworkManager_t:s0 key=(null) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): NetworkManager-0.8.1-5.el6_0.1.i686 selinux-policy-3.7.19-54.el6_0.5.noarch kernel-2.6.32-71.29.1.el6.i686 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot the system and log in into GNOME 2. I have a mobile 3G connection configured in NM. It is configured to connect automatically 3. Actual results: NM connected to the mobile network but I got this SELinux error. Expected results: No errors Additional info: I haven't seen this before and indeed when booting with kernel-2.6.32-71.24.1 there's no error. I remember updating the kernel package yesterday so it might be it.
