Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.

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.

When I boot up the system with SElinux in enforcing mode it logs:

[   25.258265] SELinux:  Completing initialization.
[   25.258266] SELinux:  Setting up existing superblocks.
[   25.286457] audit: type=1403 audit(1569965396.755:3): auid=4294967295 ses=4294967295 lsm=selinux res=1
[   25.291758] systemd[1]: Successfully loaded SELinux policy in 975.476ms.
[   25.594651] systemd[1]: Failed to insert module 'ip_tables': Operation not permitted


I'm running a fully updated x86_64 RHEL8 system with
kernel 4.18.0-80.11.2.el8_0
systemd 239-13.el8_0.5
selinux policy targeted-3.14.1-61.el8_0.2


Steps to Reproduce:
1. install Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8
2. register system and load all updates
3. setenforce enforcing
4. reboot

Actual results:
Systemd unable to load iptables module

Expected results:
iptables module loaded

Downgrading to 

selinux-policy-targeted-3.14.1-61.el8_0.1
selinux-policy-3.14.1-61.el8_0.1

does not resolve the problem.

This looks like a duplicate of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1743758 and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1644805 to me, although I don't have the necessary access to see both of those.

The workaround from #1743758 may be valid, but I have not yet tested.

Since the problem described in this bug report should be
resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a
