[pkg-wpa-devel] Bug#510652: D-Bus policy file, NM 0.7

[Michael Biebl]

Hi,

I just wanted to add some remarks to this bug report:
NM 0.7 uses wpasupplicant's D-Bus interface extensively and it seems to work
fine so far. Nonetheless I always get this messages in auth.log

Feb  5 06:01:10 pluto dbus-daemon: Rejected send message, 17 matched rules;
type="method_return", sender=":1.9" (uid=0 pid=2608 comm="/sbin/wpa_supplicant
-u -f /var/log/wpa_supplicant") interface="(unset)" member="(unset)" error
name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination=":1.68" (uid=0 pid=3564
comm="/usr/sbin/NetworkManager --pid-file /var/run/Netwo"))
Feb  5 06:01:15 pluto dbus-daemon: Rejected send message, 18 matched rules;
type="error", sender=":1.518" (uid=0 pid=9360 comm="/sbin/wpa_supplicant -u -f
/var/log/wpa_supplicant") interface="(unset)" member="(unset)" error
name="fi.epitest.hostap.WPASupplicant.InvalidInterface" requested_reply=0
destination=":1.68" (uid=0 pid=3564 comm="/usr/sbin/NetworkManager --pid-file
/var/run/Netwo"))

This happens right after NM has started wpasupplicant (via dbus activation).
During "normal" operation, I don't get any denials.

This is definitely something, that needs further investigation.

Cheers,
Michael
