+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1297163 +++ Description of problem: Many files are attempted (assume all are in /run/udev/data but the path is not reported !!!), this is an sealert for one of the files: SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/usbhid-ups from read access on the file +usb:2-4:1.0. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that usbhid-ups should be allowed read access on the +usb:2-4:1.0 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 usbhid-ups /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:nut_upsdrvctl_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:udev_var_run_t:s0 Target Objects +usb:2-4:1.0 [ file ] Source usbhid-ups Source Path /usr/sbin/usbhid-ups Port <Unknown> Host system Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages Policy RPM <Unknown> Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name system Platform Linux system 4.2.8-300.fc23.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Dec 15 16:49:06 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 148 First Seen 2015-12-29 11:08:28 PST Last Seen 2016-01-09 10:46:12 PST Local ID 621446fd-75ee-4e4c-9da3-627caa5d29a6 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1452365172.173:35013): avc: denied { read } for pid=30857 comm="usbhid-ups" name="+usb:2-4:1.0" dev="tmpfs" ino=14205 scontext=system_u:system_r:nut_upsdrvctl_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:udev_var_run_t:s0 tclass=file permissive=0 type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1452365172.173:35013): arch=x86_64 syscall=open success=no exit=EACCES a0=7ffc0f61f890 a1=80000 a2=1b6 a3=80000 items=0 ppid=30856 pid=30857 auid=4294967295 uid=57 gid=57 euid=57 suid=57 fsuid=57 egid=57 sgid=57 fsgid=57 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm=usbhid-ups exe=/usr/sbin/usbhid-ups subj=system_u:system_r:nut_upsdrvctl_t:s0 key=(null) Hash: usbhid-ups,nut_upsdrvctl_t,udev_var_run_t,file,read Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): selinux-policy-targeted-3.13.1-158.fc23.noarch Have a ups on usb configured in nut that the hid driver is scanning through nodes to initially identify and acquire (? a guess...) but is not allowed. --- Additional comment from on 2016-01-20 11:51:22 EST --- Just a note that amending policy with: allow nut_upsdrvctl_t udev_var_run_t:file { getattr read open }; allows driver to start without complaint. Everything appears to function now. Note that nut-server service starts driver service. Suspect this is a problem with other ups usb drivers as well. --- Additional comment from Miroslav Grepl on 2016-01-21 03:12:03 EST --- Thank you for testing. --- Additional comment from Gary Tierney on 2016-06-28 12:54 EDT --- Also submitted as a pull-request to fedora-selinux GitHub. --- Additional comment from Vasco Almeida on 2016-06-30 09:00:16 EDT --- Gary Tierney's patch works for me. That log on selinux-policy/pull/136 git pull request is from my system before he helped me fix the issue. Thank you.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 24 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 2 (two) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 24. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '24'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 24 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 24 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-08-08. Fedora 24 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
