Description Robert Scheck 2015-11-24 15:08:52 UTC
Description of problem:
As per bug #1218330, there is a new SELinux boolean which covers the situation
that tmpwatch(1) can't be run on local directories being shared via Samba (and
thus labelled as samba_share_t). However, mounting a foreign CIFS share on a
server and running tmpwatch(1) to that share does not work, because that would
need allowing cifs_t as well.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
selinux-policy-3.13.1-60.el7.noarch
selinux-policy-targeted-3.13.1-60.el7.noarch

How reproducible:
Everytime, see above and below.

Actual results:
SELinux boolean tmpreaper_use_samba only covers samba_share_t.

Expected results:
SELinux boolean tmpreaper_use_samba samba_share_t and cifs_t.

Additional info:
This is not a duplicate of bug #1218330, that was the request for the boolean
itself.
