Description of problem: Trying to start a VPN tunnel. I assume L2TP IPsec VPN Manager 1.0.8 is trying to read the address of dbus. SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/L2tpIPsecVpn from 'search' accesses on the directory /root/.config. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that L2tpIPsecVpn should be allowed search access on the .config 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 L2tpIPsecVpn /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:pppd_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:config_home_t:s0 Target Objects /root/.config [ dir ] Source L2tpIPsecVpn Source Path /usr/bin/L2tpIPsecVpn Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages l2tp-ipsec-vpn-1.0.8-1.1.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.11.1-96.fc18.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.9.4-200.fc18.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri May 24 20:10:49 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 29 First Seen 2013-04-13 11:50:54 CEST Last Seen 2013-05-29 21:53:54 CEST Local ID 0a140f32-c21f-4cde-abcc-f4c224f29acb Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1369857234.113:406): avc: denied { search } for pid=3991 comm="L2tpIPsecVpn" name=".config" dev="sda3" ino=2490382 scontext=system_u:system_r:pppd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:config_home_t:s0 tclass=dir type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1369857234.113:406): arch=x86_64 syscall=stat success=no exit=EACCES a0=2458f28 a1=7fffa5952040 a2=7fffa5952040 a3=2 items=0 ppid=3988 pid=3991 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 ses=4294967295 tty=(none) comm=L2tpIPsecVpn exe=/usr/bin/L2tpIPsecVpn subj=system_u:system_r:pppd_t:s0 key=(null) Hash: L2tpIPsecVpn,pppd_t,config_home_t,dir,search audit2allow #============= pppd_t ============== allow pppd_t config_home_t:dir search; audit2allow -R require { type pppd_t; } #============= pppd_t ============== gnome_list_home_config(pppd_t) Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.1.4 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.9.4-200.fc18.x86_64 type: libreport
