Description of problem: This issue started after performing a system upgrade from Fedora 25 to Fedora 28 (I am aware that upgrading across more than two versions is not advised, I did this by accident.), every time I start the system up SELinux would report mktemp not being able to access a directory. I have tried following the troubleshooting procedure to fix it using semodule, however that doesn't seem to completely resolve it as mktemp access a different directory every time. SELinux is preventing mktemp from 'create' accesses on the directory Iy9puzuF. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that mktemp should be allowed create access on the Iy9puzuF directory 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: # ausearch -c 'mktemp' --raw | audit2allow -M my-mktemp # semodule -X 300 -i my-mktemp.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:fsdaemon_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:mail_home_rw_t:s0 Target Objects Iy9puzuF [ dir ] Source mktemp Source Path mktemp Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.14.1-24.fc28.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 4.16.6-302.fc28.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed May 2 00:07:06 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 3 First Seen 2018-05-12 16:02:16 +03 Last Seen 2018-05-12 16:02:16 +03 Local ID 0d7fbb56-b4ef-4fb1-8091-4d5407987c0d Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1526130136.223:109): avc: denied { create } for pid=3871 comm="mktemp" name="Iy9puzuF" scontext=system_u:system_r:fsdaemon_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:mail_home_rw_t:s0 tclass=dir permissive=0 Hash: mktemp,fsdaemon_t,mail_home_rw_t,dir,create Version-Release number of selected component: selinux-policy-3.14.1-24.fc28.noarch Additional info: component: selinux-policy reporter: libreport-2.9.5 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 4.16.6-302.fc28.x86_64 type: libreport
This message is a reminder that Fedora 28 is nearing its end of life. On 2019-May-28 Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 28. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '28'. 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 28 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 28 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2019-05-28. Fedora 28 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.
