Description of problem: This SELinux alert was generated when Dovecot's "auth" process started up. SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/dovecot/auth from 'write' accesses on the fifo_file stats-user. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that auth should be allowed write access on the stats-user fifo_file 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 auth /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:dovecot_auth_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:dovecot_var_run_t:s0 Target Objects stats-user [ fifo_file ] Source auth Source Path /usr/libexec/dovecot/auth Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages dovecot-2.2.22-1.fc22.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.13.1-128.28.fc22.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Permissive Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 4.4.6-200.fc22.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Mar 16 22:13:40 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 3 First Seen 2016-03-23 18:35:41 AEDT Last Seen 2016-03-23 18:37:17 AEDT Local ID cdde354c-2258-46a9-b160-6355d70dfd09 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1458718637.414:5761): avc: denied { write } for pid=7894 comm="auth" name="stats-user" dev="tmpfs" ino=526249 scontext=system_u:system_r:dovecot_auth_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:dovecot_var_run_t:s0 tclass=fifo_file permissive=1 type=AVC msg=audit(1458718637.414:5761): avc: denied { open } for pid=7894 comm="auth" path="/run/dovecot/stats-user" dev="tmpfs" ino=526249 scontext=system_u:system_r:dovecot_auth_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:dovecot_var_run_t:s0 tclass=fifo_file permissive=1 type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1458718637.414:5761): arch=x86_64 syscall=open success=yes exit=ENOTBLK a0=55e7e61022f0 a1=801 a2=b a3=0 items=0 ppid=7776 pid=7894 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm=auth exe=/usr/libexec/dovecot/auth subj=system_u:system_r:dovecot_auth_t:s0 key=(null) Hash: auth,dovecot_auth_t,dovecot_var_run_t,fifo_file,write Version-Release number of selected component: selinux-policy-3.13.1-128.28.fc22.noarch Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.6.4 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 4.4.6-200.fc22.x86_64 type: libreport

I have the same issue. Where can I get selinux-policy-3.13.1-128.29.fc22? It is not in updates-testing yet, nor can I find it in Koji.
For the other users: # cat /root/selinux/local-fix-dovecot-BZ1320415.te module local-fix-dovecot-BZ1320415 1.0; require { type dovecot_auth_t; type dovecot_var_run_t; class fifo_file { open write }; } #============= dovecot_auth_t ============== allow dovecot_auth_t dovecot_var_run_t:fifo_file open; allow dovecot_auth_t dovecot_var_run_t:fifo_file write;
