Description of problem: SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/dhclient from 'search' accesses on the directory NetworkManager. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that dhclient should be allowed search access on the NetworkManager directory by default. Then you should report this as a bug. You can generate a local policy module to allow this access. Do allow this access for now by executing: # grep dhclient /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:system_r:dhcpc_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Context unconfined_u:object_r:user_home_t:s0 Target Objects NetworkManager [ dir ] Source dhclient Source Path /usr/sbin/dhclient Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages dhclient-4.2.5-15.fc19.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.12.1-73.fc19.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.10.9-200.fc19.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Aug 21 19:27:58 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 9 First Seen 2013-08-28 12:59:16 CEST Last Seen 2013-08-28 12:59:16 CEST Local ID b6f9ebfb-d3fe-401e-8888-ef67c5ade3c6 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1377687556.641:1016): avc: denied { search } for pid=31652 comm="dhclient" name="NetworkManager" dev="dm-3" ino=14292409 scontext=unconfined_u:system_r:dhcpc_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:user_home_t:s0 tclass=dir type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1377687556.641:1016): arch=x86_64 syscall=open success=no exit=EACCES a0=7fff826d3ca0 a1=80000 a2=7f45c1e66000 a3=343662696c2f6c6c items=0 ppid=26924 pid=31652 auid=1000 uid=1000 gid=1000 euid=1000 suid=1000 fsuid=1000 egid=1000 sgid=1000 fsgid=1000 ses=1 tty=pts1 comm=dhclient exe=/usr/sbin/dhclient subj=unconfined_u:system_r:dhcpc_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: dhclient,dhcpc_t,user_home_t,dir,search Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.1.6 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.10.9-200.fc19.x86_64 type: libreport
Why is NetworkManager directory labeled user_home_t? restorecon -R -v NetworkManager should fix the label. Probably one of these directories /etc/NetworkManager(/.*)? system_u:object_r:NetworkManager_etc_t:s0 /var/lib/NetworkManager(/.*)? system_u:object_r:NetworkManager_var_lib_t:s0 /var/run/NetworkManager(/.*)? system_u:object_r:NetworkManager_var_run_t:s0
