+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1296238 +++ Description of problem: The stunnel program cannot write to a logfile because of selinux context, any attempt ends with an avc denial. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): selinux-policy-3.13.1-60.el7.noarch selinux-policy-targeted-3.13.1-60.el7.noarch stunnel-4.56-4.el7.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set "output = file" in stunnel.conf 2. Run stunnel Actual results: type=AVC msg=audit(1450711949.536:39519): avc: denied { search } for pid=28935 comm="stunnel" name="log" dev=dm-0 ino=522773 scontext=system_u:system_r:stunnel_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:var_log_t:s0 tclass=dir type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1450711949.536:39519): arch=c000003e syscall=2 success=no exit=-13 a0=7f802d1ec7e0 a1=441 a2=1a0 a3=4 items=0 ppid=1419 pid=28935 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm="stunnel" exe="/usr/bin/stunnel" etc. in /var/log/audit/audit/log Expected results: No AVC denials Additional info: Logging using syslog works fine. The stunnel(8) manual page describes logging to an output file option as well: output = file append log messages to a file instead of using syslog /dev/stdout device can be used to redirect log messages to the standard output (for example to log them with daemontools splogger). so that we can expect that it also works without issues. According to the stunnel_selinux(8) manual page, currently there is no log-type context associated nor there is a boolean to handle log files correctly.
