Description of problem: SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/NetworkManager from 'unlink' accesses on the file . ***** Plugin catchall_labels (83.8 confidence) suggests ******************* If you want to allow NetworkManager to have unlink access on the file Then you need to change the label on $FIX_TARGET_PATH Do # semanage fcontext -a -t FILE_TYPE '$FIX_TARGET_PATH' where FILE_TYPE is one of the following: NetworkManager_etc_rw_t, NetworkManager_tmp_t, NetworkManager_var_lib_t, NetworkManager_var_run_t, dhcpc_state_t, dhcpc_var_run_t, dnsmasq_var_run_t, hostname_etc_t, named_cache_t, net_conf_t, pppd_var_run_t, systemd_passwd_var_run_t. Then execute: restorecon -v '$FIX_TARGET_PATH' ***** Plugin catchall (17.1 confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that NetworkManager should be allowed unlink access on the file 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 NetworkManager /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:NetworkManager_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:usr_t:s0 Target Objects [ file ] Source NetworkManager Source Path /usr/sbin/NetworkManager Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages NetworkManager-0.9.9.0-42.git20131003.fc20.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.12.1-179.fc20.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.14.4-200.fc20.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue May 13 13:51:08 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 340 First Seen 2014-06-02 22:54:34 AST Last Seen 2014-07-29 20:30:59 AST Local ID 865974f9-894e-442b-85e3-b99451158113 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1406680259.795:460): avc: denied { unlink } for pid=1212 comm="NetworkManager" name="timestamps" dev="sdb2" ino=4983679 scontext=system_u:system_r:NetworkManager_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:usr_t:s0 tclass=file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1406680259.795:460): arch=x86_64 syscall=rename success=no exit=EACCES a0=7f8cbcafe2b0 a1=7f8cbc2354e0 a2=7f8cb7bfc778 a3=3d items=0 ppid=1 pid=1212 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) Hash: NetworkManager,NetworkManager_t,usr_t,file,unlink Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.2.3 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.14.4-200.fc20.x86_64 type: libreport
It looks /var/lib/NetworkManager is mislabeled in your case. Try to execute # restorecon -R -v /var/lib/NetworkManager to see if it fixes labeling.
