Description of problem: See also bug 1165572. SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/openvpn from 'write' accesses on the directory NetworkManager. See also bug 1165572. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that openvpn should be allowed write 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 openvpn /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:openvpn_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:NetworkManager_var_run_t:s0 Target Objects NetworkManager [ dir ] Source openvpn Source Path /usr/sbin/openvpn Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages openvpn-2.3.4-4.fc21.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.13.1-92.fc21.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Permissive Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.17.3-300.fc21.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Nov 14 23:36:19 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 8 First Seen 2014-11-17 10:17:35 CET Last Seen 2014-11-19 10:08:09 CET Local ID 0bd39cd4-1a31-4886-9362-03b8985eff50 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1416388089.495:473): avc: denied { write } for pid=6804 comm="openvpn" name="NetworkManager" dev="tmpfs" ino=18097 scontext=system_u:system_r:openvpn_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:NetworkManager_var_run_t:s0 tclass=dir permissive=1 type=AVC msg=audit(1416388089.495:473): avc: denied { add_name } for pid=6804 comm="openvpn" name="nm-openvpn-70853bdb-58e2-424d-96bc-b16a1f999bb3" scontext=system_u:system_r:openvpn_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:NetworkManager_var_run_t:s0 tclass=dir permissive=1 type=AVC msg=audit(1416388089.495:473): avc: denied { create } for pid=6804 comm="openvpn" name="nm-openvpn-70853bdb-58e2-424d-96bc-b16a1f999bb3" scontext=system_u:system_r:openvpn_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:NetworkManager_var_run_t:s0 tclass=sock_file permissive=1 type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1416388089.495:473): arch=x86_64 syscall=bind success=yes exit=0 a0=4 a1=7ffb97bba464 a2=6e a3=21 items=0 ppid=6793 pid=6804 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm=openvpn exe=/usr/sbin/openvpn subj=system_u:system_r:openvpn_t:s0 key=(null) Hash: openvpn,openvpn_t,NetworkManager_var_run_t,dir,write Version-Release number of selected component: selinux-policy-3.13.1-92.fc21.noarch Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.3.0 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.17.3-300.fc21.x86_64 type: libreport
