This is a labeling problem. How did config loose it's label. restorecon config will fix it. But somehow this file got onto an SELinux box without a label. |
Setroubleshoot reports this alert after the machine resumes from suspend. Summary: SELinux is preventing access to files with the label, file_t. Detailed Description: SELinux permission checks on files labeled file_t are being denied. file_t is the context the SELinux kernel gives to files that do not have a label. This indicates a serious labeling problem. No files on an SELinux box should ever be labeled file_t. If you have just added a new disk drive to the system you can relabel it using the restorecon command. Otherwise you should relabel the entire files system. Allowing Access: You can execute the following command as root to relabel your computer system: "touch /.autorelabel; reboot" Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:hald_t Target Context system_u:object_r:file_t Target Objects ./config [ file ] Source ls Source Path /bin/ls Port <Unknown> Host dhcp-lab-118.englab.brq.redhat.com Source RPM Packages coreutils-5.97-14.el5 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-2.4.6-121.el5 Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted MLS Enabled True Enforcing Mode Enforcing Plugin Name file Host Name dhcp-lab-118.englab.brq.redhat.com Platform Linux dhcp-lab-118.englab.brq.redhat.com 2.6.18-83.el5 #1 SMP Thu Feb 21 12:14:23 EST 2008 i686 i686 Alert Count 5 First Seen Tue Mar 4 15:25:11 2008 Last Seen Tue Mar 4 15:46:02 2008 Local ID 24902571-e547-4417-b126-02e8a0fa023f Line Numbers Raw Audit Messages host=dhcp-lab-118.englab.brq.redhat.com type=AVC msg=audit(1204641962.9:26): avc: denied { read } for pid=8297 comm="ls" name="config" dev=dm-0 ino=2718885 scontext=system_u:system_r:hald_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:file_t:s0 tclass=file host=dhcp-lab-118.englab.brq.redhat.com type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1204641962.9:26): arch=40000003 syscall=5 success=no exit=-13 a0=8beb70 a1=8000 a2=1b6 a3=9896008 items=0 ppid=8295 pid=8297 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm="ls" exe="/bin/ls" subj=system_u:system_r:hald_t:s0 key=(null)
