Description of problem: Policy was added in 6065f79e001b171feff408d5a39f141c94d9284a to set the default policy of /etc/pki/pki-tomcat/ca to pki_tomcat_cert_t. No policy was added at the time for the pki subsystem kra in /etc/pki/pki-tomcat/kra/* (probably because this is less used). It is defaulting to pki_tomcat_etc_rw_t. certmonger, when renewing certificates, updates a pki configuration file, CS.cfg, with the updated cert values. It does not have permissions to operate on pki_tomcat_etc_rw_t so it can't write CS.cfg with the new value. I get AVCs like: time->Tue Jan 31 16:32:00 2023 type=AVC msg=audit(1675200720.954:6376): avc: denied { getattr } for pid=326582 comm="renew_ca_cert" path="/etc/pki/pki-tomcat/kra/CS.cfg" dev="dm-0" ino=34013220 scontext=system_u:system_r:certmonger_t:s0 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:pki_tomcat_etc_rw_t:s0 tclass=file permissive=0 It would make sense to me if the two subsystem directories had the same policy applied. This should allow certmonger to manage the files. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): selinux-policy-37.18-1.fc37.noarch Steps to Reproduce: I can help you install an IPA server + KRA if you want, but the fix looks pretty straightforward.

It will be a moot point when dogtag has their next release (11.5.0) because they will no longer write certificate blobs to CS.cfg. This was the reason that certmonger needed write capabilities: to update the blob during renewals.
