Description Jaroslav Aster 2017-04-27 10:27:05 UTC
Description of problem:

Selinux prevents freeradius to connect to postgresql.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

selinux-policy-3.13.1-145.el7
freeradius-3.0.13-3.el7


How reproducible:

100%


Steps to Reproduce:

Configure freeradius to use postgresql. Freeradius does not start and there are some avcs in the log file.

type=PROCTITLE msg=audit(04/27/2017 06:03:14.399:688) : proctitle=/usr/sbin/radiusd -d /etc/raddb
type=SYSCALL msg=audit(04/27/2017 06:03:14.399:688) : arch=x86_64 syscall=connect success=no exit=EACCES(Permission denied) a0=0x4 a1=0x564dd3537520 a2=0x6e a3=0x564dd3537522 items=0 ppid=8731 pid=8735 auid=unset uid=root gid=radiusd euid=radiusd suid=root fsuid=radiusd egid=radiusd sgid=radiusd fsgid=radiusd tty=(none) ses=unset comm=radiusd exe=/usr/sbin/radiusd subj=system_u:system_r:radiusd_t:s0 key=(null)
type=AVC msg=audit(04/27/2017 06:03:14.399:688) : avc:  denied  { connectto } for  pid=8735 comm=radiusd path=/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432 scontext=system_u:system_r:radiusd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:postgresql_t:s0 tclass=unix_stream_socket


Actual results:

Freeradius does not start.


Expected results:

Freeradius starts and works.

Comment 1 Vit Mojzis 2017-04-27 14:07:20 UTC
Thank you for reporting the issue. 
Would you be able to retry your use case with SELinux in permissive mode (#setenforce 0) and send all the AVC's (#ausearch -m avc -m user_avc -m selinux_err -m user_selinux_err --raw -ts today)? 
That way we could allow all the necessary access at once.

Comment 2 Jaroslav Aster 2017-04-27 14:13:30 UTC
No problem :-).
