Description Marek Grac 2015-08-19 12:48:20 UTC
fence_scsi_check.pl (.pl for historical reasons, it is python in 7.1) should be symlinked/copied to /etc/watchdog.d/. If binary is copied there it works as expected but python script is not working.

Steps to reproduce:

1. yum install watchdog fence-agents-scsi
2. ln -s /usr/share/cluster/fence_scsi_check.pl /etc/watchdog.d
or 'cp' instead of 'ln -s'
3. systemctl start watchdog

machine should be not be rebooted immediately.

Operation that have to be allowed are in attachment.

Comment 5 Miroslav Grepl 2015-08-19 13:02:19 UTC
Well AVCs would be much better. I believe it should be running under watchdog script domain.

If you just add

allow watchdog_t watchdog_unconfined_exec_t:lnk_file read;

how does it look?

Comment 6 Marek Grac 2015-08-19 14:32:18 UTC
allow watchdog_t watchdog_unconfined_exec_t:lnk_file read;

ends with rebooted machine and there are no AVC there - very likely because of reboot.

obtained AVCs

Comment 8 Miroslav Grepl 2015-08-21 07:56:11 UTC
Ok so the point is we have fence_scsi_check.pl symlink which points to /usr/share/cluster/fence_scsi_check.pl which is labeled as bin_t and all accesses are now needed for watchdog_t.

Do we need it for 7.2?

Comment 9 Marek Grac 2015-08-21 12:03:02 UTC
yes, 7.2 will be great. 

It is possible that we will request also 7.1.z but it will depends on how much GSS like workaround with semanage.

Comment 10 Miroslav Grepl 2015-08-24 16:05:07 UTC
Marek,
what does

rpm -qf /usr/share/cluster/fence_scsi_check.pl

? 

Is this script also used by other apps? The point is we could just change labeling from bin_t to watchdog_unconfined_exec_t and it would work. 

If it is not possible, we could talk about a new boolean to have rules coming from random scripts under watchdog_t.

Comment 11 Lukas Vrabec 2015-08-24 23:55:29 UTC
Mirek,




Hi Marek!

Could you reproduce it with this local policy? 

At First use:
# chcon -t fenced_exec_t /usr/share/cluster/fence_scsi_check.pl

# cat mymodule.te 
policy_module(mymodule 1.0);

require {
	type watchdog_unconfined_exec_t;
	type watchdog_t;
	type fenced_t;
}

#============= watchdog_t ==============
allow watchdog_t watchdog_unconfined_exec_t:lnk_file read;
allow fenced_t watchdog_unconfined_exec_t:lnk_file read;

corecmd_exec_bin(fenced_t)
corecmd_exec_bin(watchdog_t)

optional_policy(`
	libs_exec_ldconfig(fenced_t)
')

optional_policy(`
	rhcs_domtrans_fenced(watchdog_t)
')

# make -f /usr/share/selinux/devel/Makefile mymodule.pp
# semodule -i mymodule.pp

I tried it with both options (cp and ln) and I'm without AVCs.

No, it makes minimal sense to use this script in other application as it is written directly as watchdog script. There will be at least one other script that will be in 7.3 (already in 6.7) which will be used in similar way. But there should not be dozens of them.

@Lukas:

policy is working for me.
