+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1467468 +++

Description of problem:
SELinux is preventing systemd-tmpfile from using the 'dac_read_search' capabilities.

*****  Plugin dac_override (91.4 confidence) suggests   **********************

If you want to help identify if domain needs this access or you have a file with the wrong permissions on your system
Then turn on full auditing to get path information about the offending file and generate the error again.
Do

Turn on full auditing
# auditctl -w /etc/shadow -p w
Try to recreate AVC. Then execute
# ausearch -m avc -ts recent
If you see PATH record check ownership/permissions on file, and fix it,
otherwise report as a bugzilla.

*****  Plugin catchall (9.59 confidence) suggests   **************************

If you believe that systemd-tmpfile should have the dac_read_search capability 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:
# ausearch -c 'systemd-tmpfile' --raw | audit2allow -M my-systemdtmpfile
# semodule -X 300 -i my-systemdtmpfile.pp

--- Additional comment from Daniel Walsh on 2017-07-06 07:35:11 EDT ---

I think a lot of these are caused by some fixes to the kernel that now does dac_read_search before dac_override.  We could probable replace a lot of dac_override access with dac_read_search.
Comment 1 Jan Kurik 2017-08-15 08:55:00 UTC 
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 27 development cycle.
Changing version to '27'.
Comment 2 Micah Abbott 2017-08-16 19:09:59 UTC 
This appears to be fixed in Rawhide Atomic Host with 'selinux-policy-3.13.1-270.fc27.noarch'
