Description of problem: I tried to activate a VPN connection by means of NetworkManager-openvpn. SELinux is preventing nm-openvpn-serv from 'read' accesses on the directory /tmp. ***** Plugin restorecon (99.5 confidence) suggests ************************ If you want to fix the label. /tmp default label should be tmp_t. Then you can run restorecon. Do # /sbin/restorecon -v /tmp ***** Plugin catchall (1.49 confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that nm-openvpn-serv should be allowed read access on the tmp 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 nm-openvpn-serv /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:tmpfs_t:s0 Target Objects /tmp [ dir ] Source nm-openvpn-serv Source Path nm-openvpn-serv Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages filesystem-3.2-35.fc24.x86_64 Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.13.1-161.fc24.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Permissive Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 4.4.0-0.rc3.git4.1.fc24.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Dec 4 16:10:15 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen 2015-12-05 23:55:22 CET Last Seen 2015-12-05 23:55:22 CET Local ID cfc62f26-983f-438c-b2e4-db1095150f2c Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1449356122.164:578): avc: denied { read } for pid=2408 comm="nm-openvpn-serv" name="/" dev="tmpfs" ino=12787 scontext=system_u:system_r:NetworkManager_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:tmpfs_t:s0 tclass=dir permissive=1 Hash: nm-openvpn-serv,NetworkManager_t,tmpfs_t,dir,read Version-Release number of selected component: selinux-policy-3.13.1-161.fc24.noarch Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.6.3 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 4.4.0-0.rc3.git4.1.fc24.x86_64 type: libreport
