Confined administrators cannot run /bin/systemd-tmpfiles
Last modified: 2018-04-10 08:23:31 EDT
Description of problem: SELinux-confined users cannot run /bin/systemd-tmpfiles, because no policy rule exists to allow sysadm_t to execute files labeled systemd_tmpfiles_exec_t: [dhatch@c7-1ea498 ~]$ sudo -r sysadm_r systemd-tmpfiles --create sesh: unable to execute /bin/systemd-tmpfiles: Permission denied type=AVC msg=audit(1460124637.840:85): avc: denied { execute } for pid=873 comm="sesh" name="systemd-tmpfiles" dev="dm-0" ino=25553816 scontext=staff_u:sysadm_r:sysadm_t:s0-s15:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:systemd_tmpfiles_exec_t:s0 tclass=file Administrators should be allowed to run this command to apply any changes they may have made to configuration in /etc/tmpfiles.d. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): selinux-policy-mls-3.13.1-60.el7_2.3.noarch
Fixed in Fedora, we need to back port this.
