 This bug was posted earlier. Sadly, it was closed WONTFIX, but the policy you 
need is:

allow fail2ban_t sysfs_t:file { getattr open read }; 
allow fail2ban_t sysctl_net_t:dir { search }; 
allow fail2ban_t sysctl_net_t:file { getattr open read };
Honestly, if this really affects all users of fail2ban, I’ll probably push back 
on the ticket to get it updated. I’ve successfully had the policy updated to 
handle issues with popular non-RHEL/CentOS packages.
