Description Matthew Saltzman 2015-12-13 01:24:57 UTC
Description of problem:
Printing from Firefox to printer using hplip driver.
SELinux is preventing hp from 'write' accesses on the directory /var/lib/net-snmp/mib_indexes.

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests   **************************

If you believe that hp should be allowed write access on the mib_indexes directory by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# grep hp /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

I'm seeing this too with:

Target RPM Packages net-snmp-libs-5.7.3-7.fc23.x86_64
Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.13.1-157.fc23.noarch

when printing to a HP 8600 Plus printer.

Comment 8 Peter Bieringer 2016-02-04 22:03:49 UTC
Hit by the same issue

# grep hp /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow

#============= cupsd_t ==============
allow cupsd_t snmpd_var_lib_t:dir write;

net-snmp-libs-5.7.3-7.fc23.x86_64
selinux-policy-3.13.1-158.2.fc23.noarch

Printer is also a HP network printer

Workaround according to SE troubleshooting UI:
# grep hp /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 9 Laurent Rineau 2016-02-05 14:44:12 UTC
Description of problem:
I just printed something!

My scenario was the following:
  in "Firefox", with "Amazon", list of commands, I clicked on "print bill". Okular (from KDE 5) opened, and I clicked on "print", in the menu. The document was printed, but SELinux Alert popped at the same time.

Also an HP printer.

Comment 11 Peter Bieringer 2016-02-06 09:39:07 UTC
After allowing "write" it also wants "add_name", let see what coming next...

allow cupsd_t snmpd_var_lib_t:dir write;
allow cupsd_t snmpd_var_lib_t:dir add_name;

Comment 13 Peter Bieringer 2016-02-16 07:02:37 UTC
After applying following policy extension, no longer an alert occurs:

allow cupsd_t snmpd_var_lib_t:dir { add_name write };
allow cupsd_t snmpd_var_lib_t:file { create write };
