Description of problem: SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/mandb from 'add_name' accesses on the directory 9988. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that mandb should be allowed add_name access on the 9988 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 mandb /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:mandb_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Context unconfined_u:object_r:man_t:s0 Target Objects 9988 [ dir ] Source mandb Source Path /usr/bin/mandb Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages man-db-2.6.5-2.fc20.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.12.1-106.fc20.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.12.6-300.fc20.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Dec 23 16:44:31 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen 2014-01-15 03:20:13 WIB Last Seen 2014-01-15 03:20:13 WIB Local ID 9417bb32-5d8d-4f2c-ab05-4ad43d8007aa Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1389730813.885:883): avc: denied { add_name } for pid=9988 comm="mandb" name="9988" scontext=system_u:system_r:mandb_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:man_t:s0 tclass=dir type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1389730813.885:883): arch=x86_64 syscall=open success=no exit=EACCES a0=2606f20 a1=42 a2=1a4 a3=e items=0 ppid=9983 pid=9988 auid=0 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 ses=5 tty=(none) comm=mandb exe=/usr/bin/mandb subj=system_u:system_r:mandb_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: mandb,mandb_t,man_t,dir,add_name Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.1.11 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.12.6-300.fc20.x86_64 type: libreport
Any idea what directory this file is being created in? mandb_t usually creates content in man cache directories?
This message is a reminder that Fedora 20 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 20. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '20'. 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 20 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 20 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-06-23. Fedora 20 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.
