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 Martin Pitt 2018-07-05 09:50:23 UTC 
Description of problem: In our RHEL 7.6 nightly test images for Cockpit we are now seeing a lot of these SELinux denials:

type=1400 audit(1530740634.282:4): avc:  denied  { map } for  pid=1717 comm="local" path="/usr/libexec/postfix/local" dev="dm-0" ino=25529702 scontext=system_u:system_r:postfix_master_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:postfix_local_exec_t:s0 tclass=file permissive=0

For some reason postfix.service gets enabled by a normal virt-install default installation (our image build scripts don't do that, and the vendor preset is disabled). Our tests don't do anything with postfix or email in general, so this is just "background noise", and I don't have a clear reproducer.

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

selinux-policy-3.13.1-207.el7.noarch
postfix-2.10.1-7.el7.x86_64

How reproducible: Often
Comment 2 Milos Malik 2018-07-13 14:59:10 UTC 
SELinux denials of both postfix/local and postfix/bounce appear in permissive mode:
