Description Jonathan Gazeley 2011-05-27 18:40:12 UTC
SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/colord from 'getattr' accesses on the filesystem /.

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests  ***************************

If you believe that colord should be allowed getattr access on the  filesystem 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:
# grep colord /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 1 Dominick Grift 2011-05-27 18:50:57 UTC
Are you using NFS home directories?

Comment 2 Jonathan Gazeley 2011-05-27 18:57:18 UTC
No, the home directories are on a local disk. Although, this is a clean install of Fedora 15 where I have simply mounted home directories from a Fedora 14 installation. Could this have an effect?

Comment 3 Dominick Grift 2011-05-27 19:04:15 UTC
Where have you mounted an nfs filesystem? Colord wants to get attributes of an nfs file system (dev=0:27)

Comment 4 Jonathan Gazeley 2011-05-27 19:16:47 UTC
Oh, I have an NFS file server mounted as /media/public. I guess this means the content on the server is not properly labelled?

Comment 5 Dominick Grift 2011-05-27 19:28:43 UTC
I am referring to inode number 2 on device "0:27" so that could be the case here yes. Colord lists /media i believe and so this might be why it wants to get attributes of nfs_t filesystems.

I am not sure what business colord has in /media but i guess it does not hurt to support nfs/cifs.

I will add nfs/cifs support via a boolean. Colord should probably also be able to get attributes of, or read removable devices (i guess that is what one usually mounts on /media)

Comment 7 Miroslav Grepl 2011-05-30 08:21:05 UTC
I am fine with some changes, but I think

+tunable_policy(`colord_use_cifs',`
+       fs_manage_cifs_dirs(colord_t)
+       fs_manage_cifs_files(colord_t)
+')
+
+tunable_policy(`colord_use_nfs',`
+       fs_manage_nfs_dirs(colord_t)
+       fs_manage_nfs_files(colord_t)
+')

is not necessary.

Fixed in selinux-policy-3.9.16-27.fc15

Comment 8 Dominick Grift 2011-05-30 08:39:12 UTC
alright i actually made another commit after that , that would make it even worse i guess in that regard.

The reporter has a nfs share mounted on /media. To add a fs_getattr_all_fs() just for that seemed overkill to me.

So i appended fs_getattr_nfs/cifs to colord_use_nfs/cifs respectively.

I also think it would be a little exotic setup to have nfs share mounted on /media but i guess it is possible so from that perspective i though i would add it.

Anyways, i assume you will make the needed changes in the master branch for this?
