If you execute # chcon -t openvswitch_exec_t PATHTO/ovs-appctl does it work then? I have changed the context of /usr/bin/ovs-appctl to openvswitch_exec_t and the following command does not generate any AVCs: /usr/sbin/logrotate /etc/logrotate.conf However, I don't believe that this is a good test, because logrotate is presumably running unconfined when I start it from a shell. I tried to use runcon to run it as logrotate_t, but I was unable to figure out how to do so. selinux-policy-3.11.1-73.fc18 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 18. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/selinux-policy-3.11.1-73.fc18 Try # runcon -u system_u -r system_r -t initrc_t -- runcon -t crond_t -- runcon -t logrotate_t -- /usr/sbin/logrotate /etc/logrotate.conf Package selinux-policy-3.11.1-73.fc18: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 18 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing selinux-policy-3.11.1-73.fc18' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2013-1272/selinux-policy-3.11.1-73.fc18 then log in and leave karma (feedback). selinux-policy-3.11.1-73.fc18 has been pushed to the Fedora 18 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. |
Description of problem: logrotate cron job SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/ovs-appctl from 'write' accesses on the file ovsdb-server.pid. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that ovs-appctl should be allowed write access on the ovsdb-server.pid 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 ovs-appctl /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:logrotate_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Context system_u:object_r:openvswitch_var_run_t:s0 Target Objects ovsdb-server.pid [ file ] Source ovs-appctl Source Path /usr/bin/ovs-appctl Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages openvswitch-1.7.1-6.fc18.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.11.1-71.fc18.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.7.2-201.fc18.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Jan 11 22:16:23 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 2 First Seen 2013-01-20 03:36:06 CST Last Seen 2013-01-20 03:36:06 CST Local ID c9ad048f-08e7-46e0-9670-eeee6a8f4156 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1358674566.712:2584): avc: denied { write } for pid=25804 comm="ovs-appctl" name="ovsdb-server.pid" dev="tmpfs" ino=21213 scontext=system_u:system_r:logrotate_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:openvswitch_var_run_t:s0 tclass=file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1358674566.712:2584): arch=x86_64 syscall=open success=no exit=EACCES a0=1d3b080 a1=2 a2=1b6 a3=238 items=0 ppid=25802 pid=25804 auid=0 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 ses=215 tty=(none) comm=ovs-appctl exe=/usr/bin/ovs-appctl subj=system_u:system_r:logrotate_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: ovs-appctl,logrotate_t,openvswitch_var_run_t,file,write audit2allow #============= logrotate_t ============== allow logrotate_t openvswitch_var_run_t:file write; audit2allow -R #============= logrotate_t ============== allow logrotate_t openvswitch_var_run_t:file write; Additional info: hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.7.2-201.fc18.x86_64 type: libreport
