Does collectd need this?
CAP_NET_ADMIN
Perform various network-related operations
(e.g., setting privileged socket options,
enabling multicasting, interface configura‐
tion, modifying routing tables)
looks like it's the conntrack plugin which is causing this problem. that plugin is disabled by default so you can probably set the severity as 'low' for this one. Might want to add a boolean to allow collectd to manipulate the systems networking. (In reply to comment #2) > looks like it's the conntrack plugin which is causing this problem. Interesting, conntrack.c only reads /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_count why would that require net_admin ?? I believe it can be safely dontaudit'd although really should be fixed in the kernel. I believe, although haven't tested, this comes from net/sysctl_net.c::net_ctl_permissions() which checks CAP_NET_ADMIN and will allow one to overwrite the DAC permissions. I believe the fix is to use has_capability_noaudit() in the kernel instead of capable(). Thus we don't get such denials. I'll try to send a patch upstream. Lets add the dontaudit to F16 and hope the kernel is fixed in F17/F18 Fixed in selinux-policy-3.10.0-89.fc16 selinux-policy-3.10.0-89.fc16 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 16. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/selinux-policy-3.10.0-89.fc16 Package selinux-policy-3.10.0-89.fc16: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 16 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days.
