Fixed In Version: openstack-selinux-0.5.14-1.el7ost
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
In the previous release, SELinux prevented Ceph Storage from connecting to an unreserved port. As a result, Ceph was unable to receive traffic due to it being unable to connect to this port. The Image Service is now allowed to connect to all TCP ports; Ceph is allowed to connect to the unreserved port and receive incoming traffic.

Description bkopilov 2014-07-14 07:02:48 UTC
Description of problem:

Openstack all in one , installed on rhel 7.0
ceph used as backend .
When ceph configured as glance backend , selinux denies the traffic .

type=AVC msg=audit(1405288494.951:22438): avc:  denied  { name_connect } for  pid=30974 comm="glance-api" dest=6800 scontext=system_u:system_r:glance_api_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:unreserved_port_t:s0 tclass=tcp_socket



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Configure ceph backend for glance

SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/python2.7 from name_connect access on the tcp_socket .

*****  Plugin connect_ports (99.5 confidence) suggests   *********************

If you want to allow /usr/bin/python2.7 to connect to network port 6800
Then you need to modify the port type.
Do
# semanage port -a -t PORT_TYPE -p tcp 6800
    where PORT_TYPE is one of the following: amqp_port_t, certmaster_port_t, cluster_port_t, commplex_main_port_t, cyphesis_port_t, dns_port_t, dnssec_port_t, ephemeral_port_t, gear_port_t, glance_registry_port_t, gluster_port_t, hadoop_datanode_port_t, hplip_port_t, http_cache_port_t, http_port_t, keystone_port_t, matahari_port_t, mysqld_port_t, postgrey_port_t, virt_migration_port_t.

*****  Plugin catchall (1.49 confidence) suggests   **************************

If you believe that python2.7 should be allowed name_connect access on the  tcp_socket 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 glance-api /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 2 Lon Hohberger 2014-07-15 14:11:06 UTC
In order to best solve this, please:

1) Use RHEL 7 packages.  Fedora has a different selinux-policy 
   package (If you are using RHEL7, why are the packages having
   .fc20 dist tag?)

2) switch to permissive on the affected system (setenforce 0)

3) run a full test (including access of files) with the system in
   * note that access to files on ceph itself is outside
     the scope of openstack-selinux.  It requires specific
     labelling by the administrator for whatever application
     will use it; if it's glance, perhaps we simply need to 
     mount it in the right place and 'restorecon -Rv' on the
     mountpoint

4) Attach the entire /var/log/audit/audit.log.

This will prevent a lot of back-and-forth about the AVCs.

Comment 4 Ryan Hallisey 2014-07-15 15:18:01 UTC
corenet_tcp_connect_all_ports(glance_api_t)

Assuming glance_api_t will need to connect to many different ports then I'll add the above rule.
