Description of problem: I ran installation script for IDrive Linux scripts. This is caused by IDrive service scripts for Linux, which is legitimate SW. SELinux is preventing (ecron.pl) from 'execute' accesses on the file cron.pl. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that (ecron.pl) should be allowed execute access on the cron.pl file 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 '(ecron.pl)' --raw | audit2allow -M my-ecronpl # semodule -X 300 -i my-ecronpl.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:init_t:s0 Target Context unconfined_u:object_r:user_home_t:s0 Target Objects cron.pl [ file ] Source (ecron.pl) Source Path (ecron.pl) Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages SELinux Policy RPM selinux-policy-targeted-3.14.5-42.fc32.noarch Local Policy RPM selinux-policy-targeted-3.14.5-42.fc32.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 5.7.10-201.fc32.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Jul 23 00:58:39 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen 2020-07-28 12:12:41 CEST Last Seen 2020-07-28 12:12:41 CEST Local ID 2ace219e-ce5a-4f94-8e72-6f256be8445a Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1595931161.602:435): avc: denied { execute } for pid=23919 comm="(ecron.pl)" name="cron.pl" dev="dm-1" ino=2884402 scontext=system_u:system_r:init_t:s0 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:user_home_t:s0 tclass=file permissive=0 Hash: (ecron.pl),init_t,user_home_t,file,execute Version-Release number of selected component: selinux-policy-targeted-3.14.5-42.fc32.noarch Additional info: component: selinux-policy reporter: libreport-2.13.1 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 5.7.10-201.fc32.x86_64 type: libreport
Hi, Could you please add some details how it works? - which script executes other - disclose the file path as it is not logged - how systemd is involved etc.
Hi, if it helps, the scripts can be downloaded here: https://www.idrivedownloads.com/downloads/linux/download-for-linux/IDriveForLinux.zip I ran account_setting.pl as suggested in readme.txt. File path can be anything - user unpacks the archive. Mine was ~/IDriveForLinux/scripts. I suspect it tries to add cron jobs (or get access to cron) for backup schedules.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 32 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 32 on 2021-05-25. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '32'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 32 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 32 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2021-05-25. Fedora 32 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug.
