RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Miroslav Hradílek 2014-04-04 10:25:29 UTC
Description of problem:
There are avc denials when running conmand binary (from package conman) as root on foreground for the purpose of testing.

# cat avcs_recent.txt | audit2allow 
#============= conman_t ==============
allow conman_t net_conf_t:file { read getattr open };
allow conman_t self:tcp_socket accept;

#!!!! This avc can be allowed using the boolean 'daemons_use_tty'
allow conman_t user_devpts_t:chr_file open;
allow conman_t user_tmp_t:lnk_file read;

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
selinux-policy-3.12.1-140.el7.noarch
conman-0.2.7-8.el7.x86_64

Steps to Reproduce:
Run the test from external tracker and see the denials.

The test basically configures conmand to share pty console. The shared console is accessed using conman client and programmatic access to it is allowed by connecting its stdio to another pty using socat (from package socat).

How did you get 

type=AVC msg=audit(04/04/2014 05:40:13.160:126) : avc:  denied  { read } for  pid=2831 comm=conmand name=puppet dev="dm-1" ino=68665745 scontext=system_u:system_r:conman_t:s0 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:user_tmp_t:s0 tclass=lnk_file 

? Is puppet really located in /tmp?
