SELinux is preventing pmdalinux from 'unix_read' accesses on the semafor Unknown.

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests   **************************

Pokud jste přesvědčeni, že má pmdalinux mít ve výchozím stavu přístup unix_read na Unknown sem.
Then toto byste měli nahlásit jako chybu.
Abyste přístup povolili, můžete vygenerovat lokální modul pravidel.
Do
prozatím tento přístup povolíte příkazy:
# ausearch -c 'pmdalinux' --raw | audit2allow -M my-pmdalinux
# semodule -X 300 -i my-pmdalinux.pp

Comment 1 Lukas Vrabec 2018-04-13 15:46:42 UTC
Hi, 

Any idea whats going on here?

Comment 2 Nathan Scott 2018-04-15 22:22:29 UTC
Not precisely, but I know someone who will.  From the diagnostics, in PCP we don't manipulate semaphores ourselves but we do have some code extracting metrics from the kernel about them (I'm assuming this is what "sem" refers to in the AVC).  Lukas, any other/better ideas?  Thanks.

Comment 3 Lukas Berk 2018-04-18 14:37:23 UTC
That sounds about right, possibly from the various shmctl calls in pmdas/linux/ipc.c

I've got a fix in our upstream type enforcement file.  That being said, this fix will only apply to mozilla_plugin_t contexts.  We'll (probably) eventually hit other contexts over time, it'd be nice to have a fix for all applicable contexts.
