The ptrace denials are a known issue, and were in fact noted as harmless in bug #1602383. We've done a code inspection of NetworkManager itself, and found no usage of ptrace. Likewise an informal review of all NM dependencies was done, and the offending code wasn't located. This was also re-visited recently during development of the NM 1.10 snap, and the only usage of ptrace found in any of NM's dependencies was in libc6 itself, so ptrace may being called indirectly via libc6.

I've set the priority to Medium as there've been no functional side-effects observed due to these denials to-date.
