Description of problem: It alerted while starting the system SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/bash from 'write' accesses on the directory /. ***** Plugin catchall_boolean (89.3 confidence) suggests ******************* If you want to allow all daemons to write corefiles to / Then you must tell SELinux about this by enabling the 'daemons_dump_core' boolean. You can read 'None' man page for more details. Do setsebool -P daemons_dump_core 1 ***** Plugin catchall (11.6 confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that bash should be allowed write access on the 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 mysqld_safe /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:system_r:mysqld_safe_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:root_t:s0 Target Objects / [ dir ] Source mysqld_safe Source Path /usr/bin/bash Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages bash-4.2.45-1.fc19.x86_64 Target RPM Packages filesystem-3.2-13.fc19.x86_64 Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.12.1-74.10.fc19.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.11.6-200.fc19.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Oct 18 22:34:18 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen 2013-11-01 20:21:32 CDT Last Seen 2013-11-01 20:21:32 CDT Local ID a5249fce-6bc6-4b57-835d-3a2de05ca306 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1383355292.903:497): avc: denied { write } for pid=11680 comm="mysqld_safe" name="/" dev="dm-1" ino=2 scontext=unconfined_u:system_r:mysqld_safe_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:root_t:s0 tclass=dir type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1383355292.903:497): arch=x86_64 syscall=faccessat success=no exit=EACCES a0=ffffffffffffff9c a1=2073080 a2=2 a3=8 items=0 ppid=11674 pid=11680 auid=1000 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 ses=1 tty=(none) comm=mysqld_safe exe=/usr/bin/bash subj=unconfined_u:system_r:mysqld_safe_t:s0 key=(null) Hash: mysqld_safe,mysqld_safe_t,root_t,dir,write Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.1.9 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.11.6-200.fc19.x86_64 type: libreport Potential duplicate: bug 906985
This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 19 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-01-06. Fedora 19 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
