Try chmod 777 or even chown or chgrp it to your userid or group.
That's what I did several years ago when I was using /dev/net/tun.
Pretty much once the device is there (module loaded, or kernel
recognizing tun), the permissions need to be accessible just as if it
were a file.

Thanks,

to presuppose that all men are evil and that they are always going to
act according to the wickedness of their spirits whenever they have
free scope.
