Description Ding-Yi Chen 2016-04-21 01:26:12 UTC
Description of problem:
When you encountered SELinux alert, you will be given following instruction:

  You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
  Allow this access for now by executing:
  # grep <command1> /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
  # semodule -i mypol.pp

While it is correct if you only have to allow one module,
however, after using the same instruction on command2,
the change for command1 is replaced thus no longer active.

Suggestion:
  Change the "mypol" with "my_<command>". the <command> is the one showing after grep.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
setroubleshoot-3.3.5-2.fc23

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run "sealert"
2. Find any SELinux problem
3. Click "Troubleshoot"

Actual results:
Following instruction is shown in solution text area:
   You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
   Allow this access for now by executing:
   # grep <command> /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
   # semodule -i mypol.pp

Expected results:
Following instruction is shown in solution text area:
   You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
   Allow this access for now by executing:
   # grep <command> /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M my_<command>
   # semodule -i my_<command>.pp

Sounds reasonable for me. Thanks for the idea!

The patch is available for now at https://github.com/bachradsusi/setroubleshoot/commit/192f55ed28e1258618da2d4b6ee33015f5c6ce99

You can try it with setroubleshoot-plugins-3.3.4-0.fc25.2 build from my COPR repo  https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/plautrba/setroubleshoot/build/179680/ 

I will update translation files and create a pull request.

Comment 2 Petr Lautrbach 2016-04-21 14:26:40 UTC
Note: alert reports are cached in /var/lib/setroubleshoot/setroubleshoot_database.xml. You need to remove the file and restart setroubleshootd.
