                 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:devlog_t:s0 tclass=sock_file

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
selinux-policy-3.7.19-147.el6

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. useradd -Z guest_u testuser
2. passwd testuser
3. ssh-copy-id testuser@localhost
  
Actual results:
Permission denied (ssh-copy-id)/No error msg with ssh. AVC in description.

Expected results:
No denial.

Additional info:
I think something may be missing from the log?

Comment 1 Miroslav Grepl 2012-05-02 08:32:15 UTC
Just try to switch to permissive mode for all AVC msgs. We don't allow guest_t to send log messages.

Comment 2 Miroslav Vadkerti 2012-05-02 09:07:47 UTC
I think it is the only one, though I can recheck

Comment 9 Miroslav Grepl 2012-05-08 18:02:16 UTC
Fixed in selinux-policy-3.7.19-149.el6
