SELinux is preventing /sbin/dhclient from 'open' accesses on the file nm-dhclient-wlan0.conf. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that dhclient should be allowed open access on the nm-dhclient-wlan0.conf 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 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:var_run_t:s0 Target Objects nm-dhclient-wlan0.conf [ file ] Source dhclient Source Path /sbin/dhclient Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages dhclient-4.2.1-9.P1.fc15 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.9.16-35.fc15 Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 2.6.40-4.fc15.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Jul 29 18:46:53 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen Fri 12 Aug 2011 05:35:19 PM CLT Last Seen Fri 12 Aug 2011 05:35:19 PM CLT Local ID 44b2340c-c72f-4840-92cb-9bc8add37259 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1313184919.598:682): avc: denied { open } for pid=16327 comm="dhclient" name="nm-dhclient-wlan0.conf" dev=tmpfs ino=2928294 scontext=unconfined_u:system_r:dhcpc_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:var_run_t:s0 tclass=file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1313184919.598:682): arch=x86_64 syscall=open success=no exit=EACCES a0=7fff382e7902 a1=80000 a2=7f916e498760 a3=1 items=0 ppid=3765 pid=16327 auid=500 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) ses=2 comm=dhclient exe=/sbin/dhclient subj=unconfined_u:system_r:dhcpc_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: dhclient,dhcpc_t,var_run_t,file,open audit2allow #============= dhcpc_t ============== allow dhcpc_t var_run_t:file open; audit2allow -R #============= dhcpc_t ============== allow dhcpc_t var_run_t:file open;
restorecon -R -v /var/run Should fix. How are you bringing your network up?
I have this on FC15 x86_64 (with all updates). I tried "restorecon -R -v /var/run" it does not work. if you run it, then run it again it doesn't display anything the second time (showing it worked). but if I run NetworkManager (as SU) then it comes up with a SElinux problem (this one again). then if I do the 'fix' again, same happens (first time has output, then none). so Network (ran as SU) is messing it up?
You should run NetworkManager using a service script # service NetworkManager start otherwise you run NetworkManager as unconfined_t domain which causes this mislabeling.
