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 of problem:
Running NSD on centos-7 with selinux enabled doesn't work because writes to /tmp
for the default xfr-dir setting are not allowed.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
nsd-4.1.7-3.el7.x86_64
How reproducible:
Enable selinux, install NSD, start nsd
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
Actual results:
Jan 12 11:47:05 mccmdns3.mccm.mcinfra.net systemd[1]: Starting NSD DNS Server...
Jan 12 11:47:05 mccmdns3.mccm.mcinfra.net nsd[8185]: [2016-01-12 11:47:05.112] nsd[8185]: error: mkdir /tmp/nsd-xfr-8185 failed: Permission denied

Jan 12 11:47:05 mccmdns3.mccm.mcinfra.net systemd[1]: nsd.service: main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
And in audit.log:
type=AVC msg=audit(1452525158.267:905): avc: denied { write } for pid=29920 comm="nsd" name="tmp" dev="dm-0" ino=138278 scontext=system_u:system_r:nsd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:tmp_t:s0 tclass=dir

Expected results:
Additional info:
I was able to get NSD running with the following local policy:
policy_module(nsd-xfr, 1.0)
require {
type nsd_t;
};
# temp files
type nsd_tmp_t;
files_tmp_file(nsd_tmp_t)
# Allow nsd to create and use temp files and dirs
manage_dirs_pattern(nsd_t, nsd_tmp_t, nsd_tmp_t)
manage_files_pattern(nsd_t, nsd_tmp_t, nsd_tmp_t)
files_tmp_filetrans(nsd_t, nsd_tmp_t, { file dir })
