Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
selinux-policy-3.14.3-95.el8_6.6

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Register RHEL 8.6 host, having selinux-policy-3.14.3-95.el8_6.6, with Insights 
2. Register it to the cis_server_l1 compliance policy.
3. Run `insights-client --compliance` command

Actual results:
Triggers this AVC for insights compliance on the CIS policy .

Expected results:
The compliance command should finish successfully without any AVC triggered.

Comment 2 Zdenek Pytela 2023-03-20 14:29:34 UTC
insights-client hasn't been allowed this permission in the latest selinux-policy package version

Commit to backport:
174e5da36 (HEAD -> rawhide, upstream/rawhide) Allow insights-client read all sysctls
