Any idea why iptables reads /var/log/messages? This is a leak. read of a file without an open on an execve is almost always a leak. mqc373u, Any idea what tool you were running when this happened? iptables is not reading /var/log/messages. This has to be a leak.

I am using Nagios with NagiosGraph, stopping nagios service then notify regarding iptables disappears. Ah, yes. This is obviously a leak. Had the same problem. The alert is appeared during a SSH attack to my PC. So I think the alert has been caused by fail2ban. This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping |
SELinux is preventing /sbin/iptables-multi from 'read' accesses on the file /var/log/messages-20110717. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that iptables-multi should be allowed read access on the messages-20110717 file 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 iptables /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:iptables_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:var_log_t:s0 Target Objects /var/log/messages-20110717 [ file ] Source iptables Source Path /sbin/iptables-multi Port <Okänd> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages iptables-1.4.9-1.fc14 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.9.7-42.fc14 Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Permissive Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 2.6.35.13-92.fc14.x86_64 #1 SMP Sat May 21 17:26:25 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen sön 17 jul 2011 03.32.08 Last Seen sön 17 jul 2011 03.32.08 Local ID aa7936fe-37fe-44c2-b27a-81ab466b775d Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1310866328.44:5716): avc: denied { read } for pid=20954 comm="iptables" path="/var/log/messages-20110717" dev=dm-0 ino=2360974 scontext=system_u:system_r:iptables_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:var_log_t:s0 tclass=file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1310866328.44:5716): arch=x86_64 syscall=execve success=yes exit=0 a0=203ca40 a1=203c760 a2=203b330 a3=1 items=0 ppid=20953 pid=20954 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm=iptables exe=/sbin/iptables-multi subj=system_u:system_r:iptables_t:s0 key=(null) Hash: iptables,iptables_t,var_log_t,file,read audit2allow #============= iptables_t ============== allow iptables_t var_log_t:file read; audit2allow -R #============= iptables_t ============== allow iptables_t var_log_t:file read;
