Description Nicolas Mailhot 2011-06-15 19:32:04 UTC
SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda from 'use' accesses on the fd fd.

*****  Plugin catchall_boolean (80.5 confidence) suggests  *******************

If you want to allow all domains to use other domains file descriptors
Then you must tell SELinux about this by enabling the 'allow_domain_fd_use' boolean.
Do
setsebool -P allow_domain_fd_use 1

*****  Plugin leaks (10.5 confidence) suggests  ******************************

If you want to ignore dovecot-lda trying to use access the fd fd, because you believe it should not need this access.
Then you should report this as a bug.  
You can generate a local policy module to dontaudit this access.
Do
# grep /usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -D -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

*****  Plugin catchall (10.5 confidence) suggests  ***************************

If you believe that dovecot-lda should be allowed use access on the fd fd 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 deliver /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp
