To add to this: it seems that /tmp gets reassigned to tmpfs_t on each reboot, which causes problems like the above VPN issue. I'm not really sure what service is causing this to happen, but my guess would be tmpfiles.d? Proposed as a Blocker for 24-final by Fedora user sgallagh using the blocker tracking app because: "All applications that can be launched using the standard graphical mechanism of a release-blocking desktop after a default installation of that desktop must start successfully and withstand a basic functionality test." The VPN software cannot make a connection, which is critical functionality. Discussed at 2016-01-18 blocker review meeting: [1]. This bug was accepted as a Final blocker: This bug violates the final criterion " All elements of the default panel (or equivalent) configuration in all release-blocking desktops must function correctly in typical use.", VPN connection is considered 'typical use' of networking [1] http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-blocker-review/2016-01-18/f24-blocker-review.2016-01-18-17.02.html Seems like systemd folks fix this issue. For more information you can visit https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/2196. I'm closing this BZ like NOTABUG due to this is not bug in selinux distro policy. I believe this fix will be in next systemd rawhide release. Thank you. |
SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/openvpn from 'read, write' 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 openvpn should be allowed read write 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 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:tmpfs_t:s0 Target Objects /tmp [ dir ] Source openvpn Source Path /usr/sbin/openvpn Port <Unknown> Host lenovodave Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages filesystem-3.2-35.fc24.x86_64 Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.13.1-165.fc24.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name lenovodave Platform Linux lenovodave 4.4.0-0.rc8.git3.1.fc24.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Jan 8 17:33:59 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 3 First Seen 2015-12-18 14:33:36 GMT Last Seen 2016-01-11 10:25:41 GMT Local ID 66972dea-62cd-46ce-8ba0-daef64e4e465 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1452507941.998:644): avc: denied { read write } for pid=10178 comm="openvpn" name="/" dev="tmpfs" ino=14696 scontext=system_u:system_r:openvpn_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:tmpfs_t:s0 tclass=dir permissive=0 Hash: openvpn,openvpn_t,tmpfs_t,dir,read,write In GNOME, when trying to connect using the built-in VPN support (which uses NetworkManager), I get an AVC denial after entering my password.
