selinux policy update for libreswan in RHEL6 none

Comment 1 Ondrej Moriš 2015-09-09 15:37:14 UTC
So far I experienced the following policy issue with libreswan on rhel6:

_stackmanager is denied the following read access:

# ausearch -m AVC -ts recent

To reproduce, just start ipsec service.

Comment 3 Miroslav Grepl 2015-09-10 15:20:11 UTC
Ondrej,
thank you for testing. Could you run some tests in permissive mode and collect all AVCs?

Created attachment 1072594 [details]
selinux policy update for libreswan in RHEL6

This patch contains changes required to the selinux policy for libreswan. I'm not sure if some of this has already been backported from rhel7

That's great. Thank you.

Comment 12 Tuomo Soini 2016-03-07 17:24:02 UTC
One more change is needed for XAUTH server mode PAM authentication:

+auth_use_pam(ipsec_t)

Could you create a new bug with AVCs?

Thank you.

Comment 14 Tuomo Soini 2016-03-14 08:38:06 UTC
bug #1315700 has AVCs - those should be quite same for rhel6.
