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.

Samba/CTDB SELinux policies

RHS is a layered product on top of RHEL that provides more advanced versions of Samba and CTDB (4.1.14 and 2.5.4, respectively, in the latest release). The SELinux policies should be extended to cover the needs of these versions (in addition to the current RHEL6.6 versions).

I've put together a preliminary set of policies that I believe begin to accomplish this. I took the samba and ctdb policies from RHEL7.1, commented out/renamed things that don't exist in RHEL6.6, and applied it. Samba/CTDB services ran without noticeable problems though there were still several AVCs. I asked Milos (mmalik) for a hand in reviewing these policies, and he suggested a number of additions to the policies and configurations. I'm not sure how to include all those in RPM packaging.

I'll be including his message as a reply to this BZ.

Please find the proposed policies attached as *.te and *.pp files in a tgz. They are named as follows:

samba    - Backport of RHEL7 policy
ctdbd    - Backport of RHEL7 policy (named ctdb in RHEL7)
mypol    - stray AVC I noticed, possibly RHEL7 bug?
mypolicy - Changes/additions suggested by mmalik
Comment 1 Jose A. Rivera 2015-05-07 02:31:30 UTC 
From Milos:

I don't know what is the purpose of files in /etc/ctdb/events.d/ directory, but I believe they should be labeled bin_t, because they are shell scripts and they are executed by ctdb_event_helper. Now they are labeled etc_t which implies that they contain some kind of configuration, which is not true. If they were labeled bin_t, there would be less AVCs.

Permanent labeling for files in /etc/ctdb/events.d/ can be enabled via following commands:
# semanage fcontext -a -f '' -t bin_t '/etc/ctdb/events.d/.*'
# restorecon -Rv /etc/ctdb

Permanent labeling for files in /etc/ctdb/events.d/ can be disabled via following commands:
# semanage fcontext -d -f '' -t bin_t '/etc/ctdb/events.d/.*'
# restorecon -Rv /etc/ctdb

You can list the local file context customizations via following command:
# semanage fcontext -l -C
SELinux fcontext                                   type               Context

/etc/ctdb/events.d/.*                              all files          system_u:object_r:bin_t:s0
/var/log/core(/.*)?                                all files          system_u:object_r:virt_cache_t:s0
#

There is a special policy module loaded on both machines. This policy module contains additional policy rules, which were missing in default policy and which caused the AVCs. You can find it via following command:

# semodule -l | grep mypolicy
mypolicy        1.0        
#

In /root directory you can find mypolicy.te (source code of the policy module) file and mypolicy.pp (compiled code of the policy module).

If you want to remove the policy module then run: semodule -r mypolicy
If you want to insert the policy module again then run: semodule -i mypolicy.pp

Based on AVCs which remained, it seems that the smb service wants to load the ipv6 kernel module. Therefore I recommend to enable the domain_kernel_load_modules boolean. You can permanently enable it via:
# setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules on

or disable it via:

# setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules off
Comment 3 Miroslav Grepl 2015-05-13 13:06:18 UTC 
Can we get AVCs needed for mypol.te?

Comment 7 surabhi 2015-05-18 12:27:08 UTC 
Tried on RHEL6.7 with following versions of:

glusterfs: 
glusterfs-3.7.0beta2-0.2.gitc1cd4fa.el6.x86_64
Samba:
samba-4.1.17-5.el6.x86_64
Selinux:selinux-policy-3.7.19-267.el6.noarch

Service smb starts without logging any AVC.

After starting smb service if try to mount the gluster volume on cifs getting following AVC's:

Date:   Tue May 19 12:50:03 2015 +0200

    Add new boolean samba_load_libgfapi to allow smbd load libgfapi from gluster. Allow smbd to read gluster config files by default.

commit 1636395b6882038083bd85f0799ee5d6bc7bf371
Author: Miroslav Grepl <mgrepl>
Date:   Tue May 19 12:35:05 2015 +0200

    Allow gluster to transition to smbd. It is needed for smbd+gluster configuration.

commit 8f46f8bab5be1ea8df4055e7728a715e14fab257
Author: Miroslav Grepl <mgrepl>
Date:   Tue May 19 12:51:54 2015 +0200

    ALlow glusterd to have sys_ptrace capability. Needed by gluster+samba configuration.
Comment 9 Miroslav Grepl 2015-05-19 13:25:54 UTC 
Could you please test it with

https://brewweb.devel.redhat.com/taskinfo?taskID=9198180
Comment 12 surabhi 2015-05-28 11:18:10 UTC 
With the latest build provided today by Miroslav :
https://brewweb.devel.redhat.com/buildinfo?buildID=437561

None of the AVC's are seen for gluster-samba.
Verified with both enforcing mode and permissive mode.

This is been verified on RHEL6.7. Need a backport for RHEL6.6 and fix is required for RHEL7.1 as well.
