Description Slawomir Czarko 2011-11-22 16:06:09 UTC
Full path to the directory is /tmp/shared-folder

The context shown for the directory is:
unconfined_u:object_r:etc_runtime_t:s0

SELinux policy version is:
selinux-policy-3.9.16-44.fc15.noarch


SELinux is preventing /bin/systemd-tmpfiles from read access on the directory shared-folder.

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

If you believe that systemd-tmpfiles should be allowed read access on the shared-folder directory 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 systemd-tmpfile /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 1 Miroslav Grepl 2011-11-23 12:36:11 UTC
For what is this directory used? 

The /tmp directory is not good location for this.

Comment 2 Slawomir Czarko 2011-11-23 13:58:38 UTC
I have some upstart scripts there. They're not used on this system but I was editing them there before copying them to another system. /home would be better than /tmp for that?

Comment 3 Daniel Walsh 2011-11-23 18:11:07 UTC
chcon -t tmp_t -R /tmp/shared-folder

Should solve the problem.  Does this directory get created at boot time or did you just mv a directory to /tmp?  

If you are no longer using the directory, remove it
