Description of problem: SELinux is preventing bacula-fd from using the 'dac_override' capabilities. ***** Plugin dac_override (91.4 confidence) suggests ********************** If you want to help identify if domain needs this access or you have a file with the wrong permissions on your system Then turn on full auditing to get path information about the offending file and generate the error again. Do Turn on full auditing # auditctl -w /etc/shadow -p w Try to recreate AVC. Then execute # ausearch -m avc -ts recent If you see PATH record check ownership/permissions on file, and fix it, otherwise report as a bugzilla. ***** Plugin catchall (9.59 confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that bacula-fd should have the dac_override capability 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 'bacula-fd' --raw | audit2allow -M my-baculafd # semodule -X 300 -i my-baculafd.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:bacula_t:s0 Target Context system_u:system_r:bacula_t:s0 Target Objects Unknown [ capability ] Source bacula-fd Source Path bacula-fd Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.14.3-43.fc30.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 5.2.7-200.fc30.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Aug 8 05:35:29 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 6 First Seen 2019-08-06 23:36:36 EDT Last Seen 2019-08-14 23:48:05 EDT Local ID 01eb4f68-ca4b-4140-9ed3-5fff9e51adde Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1565840885.804:2326): avc: denied { dac_override } for pid=1414 comm="bacula-fd" capability=1 scontext=system_u:system_r:bacula_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:bacula_t:s0 tclass=capability permissive=0 Hash: bacula-fd,bacula_t,bacula_t,capability,dac_override Version-Release number of selected component: selinux-policy-3.14.3-43.fc30.noarch Additional info: component: selinux-policy reporter: libreport-2.10.1 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 5.2.7-200.fc30.x86_64 type: libreport
Hi Bacula devs, Does Bacula require to bypass DAC permissions also for writing on filesystem or search/read is enough? I assume for creating backup reasing the whole filesystem should be enough. Thanks, Lukas.

Simone and bacula folks, bacula-fd requested the dac_override capability which is not allowed for the bacula_t domain. However, there already is dac_read_search granted: Is it sufficient for having bacula working?
I will make some tests.
I got "dac_override" error while restoring folder structure to /var/tmp/bacula-restores on CentOS 8.1. At a quick glance it seems that I can't restore subfolders owned by regular users (non-root).
I've submitted a PR to address the issue: https://github.com/fedora-selinux/selinux-policy-contrib/pull/204
