$ sudo livecd-iso-to-disk --format --efi Fedora-19-x86_64-netinst.iso /dev/sdb Why is livecd-iso-to-disk executing useradd? And why is /dev/null mislabeled? I have no idea. litd doesn't call useradd directly and I can't think of any reason for the format or efi paths to be using it indirectly. Is it possible for the reporter to try and debug this a bit more? (In reply to Brian C. Lane from comment #3) > I have no idea. litd doesn't call useradd directly and I can't think of any > reason for the format or efi paths to be using it indirectly. > > Is it possible for the reporter to try and debug this a bit more? Sure. Let me discover what I should to do. *** Bug 1004706 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** This is working fine for me on F20 with the host in Enforcing mode (see bug 1051523) |
Description of problem: SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/useradd from 'write' accesses on the file /dev/null. ***** Plugin leaks (86.2 confidence) suggests ***************************** If you want to ignore useradd trying to write access the null file, because you believe it should not need this access. Then you should report this as a bug. You can generate a local policy module to dontaudit this access. Do # grep /usr/sbin/useradd /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -D -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp ***** Plugin catchall (14.7 confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that useradd should be allowed write access on the null file by default. Then you should report this as a bug. You can generate a local policy module to allow this access. Do allow this access for now by executing: # grep useradd /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:unconfined_r:useradd_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Context unconfined_u:object_r:device_t:s0 Target Objects /dev/null [ file ] Source useradd Source Path /usr/sbin/useradd Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages shadow-utils-4.1.5.1-8.fc20.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.12.1-75.fc20.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Permissive Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.11.0-3.fc20.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Sep 3 21:52:28 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 4 First Seen 2013-09-05 13:50:53 MSK Last Seen 2013-09-05 13:51:23 MSK Local ID 37be374f-05af-42d0-850b-84af99029b5d Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1378374683.421:907): avc: denied { write } for pid=13760 comm="useradd" path="/dev/null" dev="sda2" ino=3943313 scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:useradd_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:device_t:s0 tclass=file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1378374683.421:907): arch=x86_64 syscall=execve success=yes exit=0 a0=16c3d00 a1=16c2a60 a2=16c0340 a3=7ffffb925020 items=0 ppid=13753 pid=13760 auid=1000 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 ses=5 tty=pts0 comm=useradd exe=/usr/sbin/useradd subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:useradd_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: useradd,useradd_t,device_t,file,write Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.1.6 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.11.0-3.fc20.x86_64 type: libreport Potential duplicate: bug 861281
