Comment 1 Zdenek Pytela 2022-02-21 13:05:31 UTC
Denis,

Will you be able to gather additional details? In particular we need to know the krb5cc_0 file path and which service created it.
Apart from the denial, does also any problem appear?

Setting the system to SELinux permissive mode will possibly gather more denials:

  # setenforce 0

How to enable full auditing in the audit daemon:
1) Open the /etc/audit/rules.d/audit.rules file in an editor.
2) Remove the following line if it exists:
-a task,never
3) Add the following line to the end of the file:
-w /etc/shadow -p w
4) Restart the audit daemon:
  # service auditd restart
5) Re-run your scenario.
6) Collect AVC denials:
  # ausearch -i -m avc,user_avc,selinux_err,user_selinux_err -ts today


This is the denial interpreted:

Denis,

Does this problem still persist with all packages updated?
Unfortunately, I was unable to reproduce the issue.

Comment 11 RHEL Program Management 2023-08-15 07:28:26 UTC
After evaluating this issue, there are no plans to address it further or fix it in an upcoming release.  Therefore, it is being closed.  If plans change such that this issue will be fixed in an upcoming release, then the bug can be reopened.
