Description Arindam Choudhury 2013-07-08 11:44:59 UTC
Description of problem:
SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/ps from 'getattr' accesses on the directory /proc/<pid>.

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

If you believe that ps should be allowed getattr access on the <pid> 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 ps /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 5 Raf Geens 2013-07-16 15:54:26 UTC
I'm still seeing the issue with selinux-policy-3.12.1-63.fc19:

type=AVC msg=audit(1373983035.745:640): avc:  denied  { getattr } for  pid=18732 comm="ps" path="/proc/493" dev="proc" ino=12914 scontext=system_u:system_r:rabbitmq_beam_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:initrc_t:s0 tclass=dir

Comment 6 Miroslav Grepl 2013-07-22 10:30:08 UTC
What does

# ps -eZ |grep initrc

on your system?

Comment 7 Raf Geens 2013-07-22 18:19:32 UTC
It doesn't return anything.

Comment 8 Raf Geens 2013-07-22 18:34:05 UTC
I picked another entry from the audit log after attemping to start rabbitmq:

type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1374517789.081:24532): arch=c000003e syscall=4 success=no exit=-13 a0=10405c0 a1=7fd6a7f93a80 a2=7fd6a7f93a80 a3=0 items=0 ppid=1969 pid=2018 auid=4294967295 uid=996 gid=997 euid=996 suid=996 fsuid=996 egid=997 sgid=997 fsgid=997 ses=4294967295 tty=(none) comm="ps" exe="/usr/bin/ps" subj=system_u:system_r:rabbitmq_beam_t:s0 key=(null)

ps -eZ | grep syslogd gives:

system_u:system_r:syslogd_t:s0    270 ?        00:00:00 systemd-journal
system_u:system_r:syslogd_t:s0    350 ?        00:00:00 rsyslogd

Comment 9 Raf Geens 2013-07-22 18:39:08 UTC
Ah, and the log in the previous message is with selinux-policy-3.12.1-65.fc19.

Comment 10 Raf Geens 2013-08-02 19:06:12 UTC
Can this bug be reopened? It's marked as closed but there's nobody in https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2013-12762/selinux-policy-3.12.1-63.fc19 who seems to have tested it. I currently have to disable SELinux to be able to start the distro version of RabbitMQ.

Comment 11 Daniel Walsh 2013-08-05 16:04:44 UTC
What AVC are you currently seeing?

Comment 12 Raf Geens 2013-08-05 19:10:27 UTC
I've retested with selinux-policy-3.12.1-69.fc19 and the ps related denials are gone. It's still not starting though: there are now a bunch of name_bind denials and one name_connect denial. I've filed a new report for that: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=993279 .
