Title:
  apparmor denied operation file_inherit from networkmanager when using
  HWE kernel

Status in isc-dhcp package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in isc-dhcp source package in Trusty:
  Fix Released
Status in isc-dhcp source package in Vivid:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  AppArmor denials appear in dhclient when using using HWE kernel on 14.04. This can result in incorrect dhcp operation on client systems. The fix is to add these rules:
    network inet dgram,
    network inet6 dgram,

  to the dhclient profile for nm-dhcp-client.action and dhclient-script,
  like we did in 4.2.4-7ubuntu14.

  [Test Case]
  Install HWE kernel and use network manager to obtain an IP address.

  [Regression Potential]
  Extremely low since the update only adds access that dhclient didn't have.

  Hallo,

  on Kubuntu 14.04.x dmesg shows me the following apparmor messages;

  Is this normal or is this a security issue together with network-
  manager?

  When I logon to KDE, KDE hangs sometimes  for 3sec at the login-
  process , when there is no internet connection (DSL modem did not
  dial-in yet).

  Thanks for your help!
  Best regards, Bernhard
