Description Gordon Messmer 2016-12-28 23:18:33 UTC
Description of problem:
The release of RHEL 7.3 includes changes to the bcfg2-server SELinux policy that completely break the application.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
selinux-policy-3.13.1-102.el7_3.7.noarch

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Attempt to start bcfg2-server in enforcing mode.
2. Run bcfg2-server in permissive mode to observe many AVCs

Actual results:
SELinux prevents the startup and a number of normal operations of the bcfg2-server.

Expected results:
As in earlier releases, the software should function normally.

Comment 3 Lukas Vrabec 2017-03-21 16:15:32 UTC
This bugzilla was triaged as "WONTFIX" by the SELinux team, due to third-party software component which can be fixed by component maintainer. To take advantage of Mandatory Access Control mechanism provided by SELinux, you (component maintainer) can ship custom SELinux policy as a subpackage of  the affected component. As a starting point you can use policy provided by selinux-policy package. For more details  about the custom product policy, please follow the https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SELinux/IndependentPolicy guideline.
