RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Luc de Louw 2018-06-22 12:45:24 UTC 
Description of problem:

If one want to map a users to the SELinux role sysadm_r, it fails because it is not included in the default configuration of IPA. It is easy to add this with ipa config-mod. However, it would be more convenient for the users. 


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
4.6


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. ipa selinuxusermap-add --selinuxuser='sysadm_u:s0-s0:c0.c1023' mapname


Actual results:
ipa: ERROR: SELinux user sysadm_u:s0-s0:c0.c1023 not found in ordering list (in config)

Expected results:
[root@ipa1 ~]# ipa selinuxusermap-add --selinuxuser='sysadm_u:s0-s0:c0.c1023' sysadmins
----------------------------------
Added SELinux User Map "sysadmins"
----------------------------------
  Rule name: sysadmins
  SELinux User: sysadm_u:s0-s0:c0.c1023
  Enabled: TRUE

Additional info:

Proper workaround:
ipa config-mod --ipaselinuxusermaporder='guest_u:s0$xguest_u:s0$user_u:s0$staff_u:s0-s0:c0.c1023$sysadm_u:s0-s0:c0.c1023$unconfined_u:s0-s0:c0.c1023'

Thanks,

Luc

I think you need a stronger case on WHY this needs to be added, not just that it would be more convenient.

In all likelihood, if this were added, it would apply to new installs only.

It is a standard SELinux user role included in RHEL (like user_r, staff_r, guest_r) and used quite often.

That is IMHO okay, those users who want to make use of this probably already figured out how to enable sysadm_r

Thanks,

Verified the bug on the basis of following observations:

1. Verified the error mentioned in description is no more observed and command 'selinuxusermap-add' is successful while using context 'sysadm_u:s0-s0:c0.c1023'.

[root@kvm-01-guest02 ~]# ipa selinuxusermap-add --selinuxuser='sysadm_u:s0-s0:c0.c1023' mapname
--------------------------------
Added SELinux User Map "mapname"
--------------------------------
  Rule name: mapname
  SELinux User: sysadm_u:s0-s0:c0.c1023
  Enabled: TRUE
[root@kvm-01-guest02 ~]# ipa selinuxusermap-add --selinuxuser='sysadm_u:s0-s0:c0.c1023' sysadmins
----------------------------------
Added SELinux User Map "sysadmins"
----------------------------------
  Rule name: sysadmins
  SELinux User: sysadm_u:s0-s0:c0.c1023
  Enabled: TRUE


Thus on basis of above observations, marking status of bug to 'VERIFIED'.
