commit 6f8cc21c4ce00e17ca02aaa7e5e881825cc4406c Author: Lukas Vrabec <lvrabec> Date: Fri Feb 14 13:02:22 2014 +0100 Add net_admin capability in collectd policy
selinux-policy-3.12.1-126.fc20 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 20. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/selinux-policy-3.12.1-126.fc20
The updated policy works for collectd---but completely breaks httpd and mariadb. It looks like it's denying them access to /tmp.
The update would almost assuredly not effect them. What AVC's are you seeing?
I doubt that the changes for collectd did this---but it looks like there are tons of other changes in 3.12.1-126. Here's the start of what I saw: type=AVC msg=audit(1392796636.545:159): avc: denied { search } for pid=1511 comm="mysqld" name="tmp" dev="dm-0" ino=54526253 scontext=system_u:system_r:mysqld_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:init_tmp_t:s0 tclass=dir type=AVC msg=audit(1392796638.290:161): avc: denied { search } for pid=1442 comm="/usr/sbin/httpd" name="tmp" dev="tmpfs" ino=24525 scontext=system_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:init_tmp_t:s0 tclass=dir type=AVC msg=audit(1392798771.747:478): avc: denied { search } for pid=2262 comm="httpd" name="tmp" dev="tmpfs" ino=28958 scontext=system_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:init_tmp_t:s0 tclass=dir type=AVC msg=audit(1392798771.747:479): avc: denied { search } for pid=2262 comm="httpd" name="tmp" dev="dm-0" ino=54526296 scontext=system_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:init_tmp_t:s0 tclass=dir type=AVC msg=audit(1392798771.747:481): avc: denied { search } for pid=2262 comm="httpd" name="tmp" dev="tmpfs" ino=28958 scontext=system_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:init_tmp_t:s0 tclass=dir
This looks like the tmp dir is mislabled. It should not be init_tmp_t? ls -lZd /tmp

'restorecon -v /tmp' did not indicate that it was relabeling /tmp.
