Comment 1 Milos Malik 2013-09-04 11:45:07 UTC
This bug talks about the kerberized version of telnet server.

# matchpathcon /usr/kerberos/sbin/telnetd 
/usr/kerberos/sbin/telnetd	system_u:object_r:telnetd_exec_t:s0
# rpm -qf /usr/kerberos/sbin/telnetd 
krb5-appl-servers-1.0.3-7.el7.x86_64
# 

I believe that the fix will also solve the same problem of the original telnet server, because the files are labelled similarly.

# matchpathcon /usr/sbin/in.telnetd 
/usr/sbin/in.telnetd	system_u:object_r:telnetd_exec_t:s0
# rpm -qf /usr/sbin/in.telnetd 
telnet-server-0.17-57.el7.x86_64
#

Comment 2 Daniel Walsh 2013-09-04 12:49:17 UTC
This looks like a labeling problem.  What is /usr/kerberos/sbin/telnetd labeled?

Comment 3 Milos Malik 2013-09-04 12:54:39 UTC
# ls -Z /usr/kerberos/sbin/telnetd
-rwxr-xr-x. root root system_u:object_r:telnetd_exec_t:s0 /usr/kerberos/sbin/telnetd

Comment 4 Miroslav Grepl 2013-09-04 12:56:30 UTC
Actually the problem with all these bugs is we miss init domain for these inetd domain.

Comment 5 Daniel Walsh 2013-09-04 12:59:47 UTC
You are right.  So these domains all have to be made init daemons.

Comment 7 Daniel Walsh 2013-09-05 12:58:43 UTC
