Description Evgeni Golov 2021-12-06 11:25:30 UTC
Description of problem:
With pulp 3.16+, there is a new key on disk (/etc/pulp/certs/database_fields.symmetric.key) which needs to be accessed by pulp, but I see denials in the logs:

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
7.0 snap 1

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual results:
see above

Expected results:
no denials

Additional info:
I don't think we currently encrypt any DB fields, so it's not fatal, but still…

Comment 2 Milos Malik 2021-12-15 13:33:03 UTC
I believe that various *.key files are mislabeled. Directories which contain certificates and key files usually have the cert_t label.

Does the scenario work when you label the /etc/pulp/certs directory and its content as cert_t?

# chcon -R -t cert_t /etc/pulp/certs

Comment 3 Evgeni Golov 2021-12-15 13:43:42 UTC
I don't have the machine at hand, so can't check right now, but I think there are no other files in that directory?

Yes, no other files.

[root@xxxx ~]# ls -laZ /etc/pulp/certs
total 4
drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root system_u:object_r:httpd_config_t:s0 43 Feb 17 13:20 .
drwxr-xr-x. 3 root root system_u:object_r:etc_t:s0          38 Feb 21 04:58 ..
-rw-r-----. 1 root pulp system_u:object_r:httpd_config_t:s0 45 Feb 17 13:20 database_fields.symmetric.key
[root@xxxx ~]# 

The upstream issue has no one assigned, 
lets ask @mdepaulo if this is on his list

Thank you

Comment 6 Dennis Kliban 2022-03-30 17:41:23 UTC
This is fixed in pulpcore-selinux 1.3.0.

Comment 9 Lai 2022-04-26 21:52:43 UTC
Steps to retest:

1. spin up fresh 6.11
2. import manifest
3. sync a few rhel repos
4. create cv and add repos to it
5. publish cv
6. check log for denial for database_fields.symmetric.key

Expected:
There shouldn't be any denials from database_fields.symmetric.key

Actual:
There is no denial for database_fields.symmetric.key

Verified on 6.11_017 with pulpcore-selinux-1.3.0-1.el8pc.x86_64
