I looked into this a little more and believe this is a limitation of
libvirt and kvm interaction. kvm doesn't seem to have a way to specify
the image is readonly. The best option is to suppress the denied message
since it will happen every time and lead to confusion in normal use (and
debugging).

** Summary changed:

- libvirt via virt-manager tries to write to a readonly ISO image
+ libvirt tries to write to open a file with write permissions for a readonly ISO image

- libvirt tries to write to open a file with write permissions for a readonly ISO image
