This looks suspiciously similar to bug 997321, but with sendmail instead of exim. 886a6c0be72075ab37b55644f23868265f627ea5 allows this in git. I still see this problem with selinux-policy-targeted-3.12.1-74.17.fc19.noarch, did this fix ever make it into an update? Sorry, it looks like the problem was resurrected and is now bug 1043108. back ported. selinux-policy-3.12.1-74.18.fc19 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 19. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/selinux-policy-3.12.1-74.18.fc19 Package selinux-policy-3.12.1-74.18.fc19: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 19 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing selinux-policy-3.12.1-74.18.fc19' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2014-2409/selinux-policy-3.12.1-74.18.fc19 then log in and leave karma (feedback). Seems to work. selinux-policy-3.12.1-74.18.fc19 has been pushed to the Fedora 19 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. |
Description of problem: SELinux blocks mailman from reading any of its files when executed from sendmail Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): selinux-policy-targeted-3.12.1-74.9.fc19.noarch SELinux blocks the mailman executable (i.e. the python binary) from accessing the mailman files when receiving incoming messages. Sample AVCs: type=AVC msg=audit(1381853291.601:121917): avc: denied { read } for pid=9761 comm="python" name="mm_cfg.py" dev="md126" ino=6032840 scontext=system_u:system_r:sendmail_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:mailman_data_t:s0 tclass=file type=AVC msg=audit(1381853291.780:121921): avc: denied { getattr } for pid=9761 comm="python" path="/var/lib/mailman/lists/styrelse/config.db.last" dev="md3" ino=1313196 scontext=system_u:system_r:sendmail_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:mailman_data_t:s0 tclass=file Presumably the deal here is that sendmail_t cannot access mailman_data_t, and there is no role transition when executing /usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman from a sendmail alias.
