Description Milos Malik 2013-12-13 17:20:21 UTC 
Description of problem:
 * ipmidetectd uses too powerful SELinux domain

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
freeipmi-ipmidetectd-1.2.1-3.el6.x86_64
selinux-policy-mls-3.7.19-231.el6.noarch
selinux-policy-3.7.19-231.el6.noarch
selinux-policy-minimum-3.7.19-231.el6.noarch
selinux-policy-targeted-3.7.19-231.el6.noarch
selinux-policy-doc-3.7.19-231.el6.noarch

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
# echo "host 127.0.0.1" >> /etc/ipmidetectd.conf
# service ipmidetectd status
ipmidetectd is stopped
# service ipmidetectd start
Starting ipmidetectd:                                      [  OK  ]
# service ipmidetectd status
ipmidetectd (pid  24789) is running...
# ps -efZ | grep ipmidetectd
unconfined_u:system_r:initrc_t:s0 root   24789     1  0 18:17 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/ipmidetectd
unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 root 24800 3863  0 18:17 pts/0 00:00:00 grep ipmidetectd
#

Actual results:
 * ipmidetectd runs as initrc_t

Expected results:
 * ipmidetectd runs in its own SELinux domain
