Description Stephen Wadeley 2021-10-08 16:38:33 UTC
Description of problem:
While testing for SELinux AVC errors on Sat6.10 snap 21, this error was seen:

type=PROCTITLE msg=audit(1630052400.331:795): proctitle=2F7573722F62696E2F707974686F6E33002F7573722F62696E2F70756C70636F72652D776F726B6572

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Sat6.10 snap 21

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. get SatLab test VM
2. ausearch -m AVC,USER_AVC
3. Sync some repos
4. ausearch -m AVC,USER_AVC

Actual results:
type=AVC msg=audit(1630052400.331:795): avc:  denied  { name_connect } for  pid=18491 comm="pulpcore-worker" dest=50123 scontext=system_u:system_r:pulpcore_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:ephemeral_port_t:s0 tclass=tcp_socket permissive=1

Expected results:
No AVCs

Similar report https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2018263

Comment 3 Mike DePaulo 2021-11-01 21:28:39 UTC
So this will be addressed via a docs update.

This alert occurs when pulp connects to a webserver (remote repo) running on a non-standard port.

The only standard ports are 80, 81, 443, 488, 8008, 8009, 8443, 9000.

The port in this example is 50123, which the Satellite tests run on.

The docs will instruct users on how to label the port.

@swadeley and I have been talking about this, and I prepared upstream instructions:

Comment 4 Stephen Wadeley 2021-11-02 06:54:27 UTC
Hello

we can close this one as NOTABUG or change its component.

I must make PR against Docs and against our test setup to allow that port.
I can try do the docs one today.


Thank you

Upon review of our valid but aging backlog the Satellite Team has concluded that this Bugzilla does not meet the criteria for a resolution in the near term, and are planning to close in a month. This message may be a repeat of a previous update and the bug is again being considered to be closed. If you have any concerns about this, please contact your Red Hat Account team.  Thank you.

Comment 8 Brad Buckingham 2023-06-13 00:19:10 UTC
Thank you for your interest in Red Hat Satellite. We have evaluated this request, and while we recognize that it is a valid request, we do not expect this to be implemented in the product in the foreseeable future. This is due to other priorities for the product, and not a reflection on the request itself. We are therefore closing this out as WONTFIX. If you have any concerns about this feel free to contact your Red Hat Account Team. Thank you.
