Description Lukas Slebodnik 2019-07-31 14:50:47 UTC
*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests   **************************

If you believe that (modprobe) should be allowed create access on the linger 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 '(modprobe)' --raw | audit2allow -M my-modprobe
# semodule -X 300 -i my-modprobe.pp

Comment 2 Lukas Slebodnik 2019-07-31 14:57:59 UTC
Guys,
could you explain what systemd is trying to do here?

Comment 3 Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 2019-07-31 15:53:00 UTC
systemd-logind.service runs in a private mount namespace with certain things bind-mounted into its root to make them read-write.
Paths are first arranged under /run/systemd/unit-root/ and then moved over /.
This is done by a forked-off child of PID1 before execve into the target daemon.

$ grep linger /proc/$(systemctl show --value -p MainPID systemd-logind)/mountinfo
635 592 253:1 /var/lib/systemd/linger /var/lib/systemd/linger rw,relatime shared:357 master:1 - ext4 /dev/mapper/fedora_krowka-root rw,seclabel

I don't know why comm="(modprobe)" is shown. This doesn't make much sense.

Comment 4 Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 2019-08-01 06:06:21 UTC
*** Bug 1735481 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Comment 5 Lukas Vrabec 2019-08-01 15:37:33 UTC
Hi Michal,
Could you please take a look on this issue? We need to understand what's going on systemd side. 

Thanks,
Lukas.

Comment 6 Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 2019-08-01 16:14:45 UTC
I'm not the addressee, but I don't quite grok the question. What is unclear on the systemd side?

Comment 9 dac.override 2019-08-04 19:37:13 UTC
systemd bind mounts all over the place

but there are generally two directives to consider:

BindPaths= and BindReadOnlyPaths=

you might consider a systemd_bind_path_type type attribute for this

what systemd does is

1. it bind mounts over the target (euther ro (BindReadOnlyPaths) or rw (BindPaths))

so youd get:

allow init_t systemd_bind_path_type:{dir file} mounton;

However to make things more complicated, systemd with create the target if it doesnt exist

(in the case of /var/lib/systemd/linger the target might not exist)

so systemd needs to be able to create the bind path target:

allow init_t systemd_bind_path_type:{dir file} { getattr create };

when bind path target is a dir then systemd needs to list it:

allow init_t systemd_bind_path_type:dir list_dir_perms;

Comment 10 dac.override 2019-08-04 19:40:13 UTC
and then make systemd_logind_var_lib_t a systemd_bind_path() (but you should probably revisit the whole policy because in the past you have been making these "mountpoint" which they arent.

systemd_bind_path(systemd_logind_var_lib_t)

Comment 11 MIBESIS 2019-08-04 21:39:53 UTC
Hi all,

I'm running F31 ( $ uname -a = Linux <hostname> 5.3.0-0.rc2.git4.1.fc31.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Aug 2 13:10:34 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux ) and I get exact same error. It took me two days to locate exact error message in log files. As I am working on a DNS server I was focused on a DNS server related issues, but turned out different.

It all worked ( fresh setup ), than I was doing configuration modifications on a DNS ( and tested once ) as it all seemed to work, I've run a system update. When I realized login takes 25s.

I've found some old forum posts regarding D-Bus related timeout settings of 25s so it was geared toward that, but that was from 2015 and did not make much sense.

Anyhow, this is my error, that is found in: journalctl -xb

Author: Lukas Vrabec <lvrabec>
Date:   Mon Aug 5 18:18:03 2019 +0200

    Allow systemd to create and bindmount dirs.
    
    Add systemd_logind_var_lib_t to attribute systemd_mount_directory.
    Allow systemd create targets with labels part of systemd_mount_directory
    Resolves: rhbz#1734831



Adding fixes to Fedora Rawhide, thanks all of you for investigation.

Comment 18 Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 2019-08-05 16:36:38 UTC
Lukas V., thanks!

Lukas S., thank you too. With your debug logs, it;s clear where the (modprobe) comes from:
> I don't know why comm="(modprobe)" is shown. This doesn't make much sense.
> systemd-logind.service: About to execute: /sbin/modprobe -abq drm

We added a modprobe in the systemd-loging.service file to work around another issue.

Are you sure that this modprobe hack works? AFAICT it does not work (at least it does not work for me with nspawn/machinectl)

If it doesn't work, open a separate bug report with some details and logs.

Ok will see if i can reproduce it next time i reboot this machine.

Also the systemd 243 RC1 messes with the permissions on /dev/fuse

Please stop dropping stuff like that in an unrelated bug. There are no details so this isn't
actionable in any way, but just makes noise in an unrelated bug report. There's 14 people in 
the CC list.

The changelog for 3.14.4-27 says it should fix this BZ

https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1347557
* Mon Aug 05 2019 Lukas Vrabec <lvrabec> 
- 3.14.4-27 - Allow tlp domain run tlp in trace mode BZ(1737106) 
- Make timedatex_t domain system dbus bus client BZ(1737239) 
- Allow cgdcbxd_t domain to list cgroup dirs - Allow systemd to create and bindmount dirs. BZ(1734831)

However I can still see AVCs

Lukas, Do you want to see AVCs also from permissive mode or comment 1 is enough.

Comment 26 Lukas Vrabec 2019-08-06 10:05:19 UTC
Hi All, 

dac.override is right, sorry for that. 

I created new build:
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=36829606


# rpm -q selinux-policy 
selinux-policy-3.14.4-28.fc31.noarch

# sesearch -A -s init_t -t systemd_logind_var_lib_t  -c dir -p create
allow init_t systemd_mount_directory:dir { create getattr ioctl lock mounton open read search };

# # seinfo -xasystemd_mount_directory

Type Attributes: 1
   attribute systemd_mount_directory;
	systemd_logind_var_lib_t


Lukas S. Could you please re-test this issue with the latest selinux-policy build for Rawhide? 

Thanks,
Lukas V.

Hi all,

I've updated my Fedora yesterday, and it did not fix the problem.
I've updated my Fedora today, and it did fix the problem. It seems so, as login is working normal speed ( it does a bit more slow, due to DNS lookups but not related ).

I guess I will push this update to other nodes now.

Thanks for the quick fix and push.

Kind Regards,
Miroslav
