Description of problem: The clamd.amavisd service runs as the amavis user under the clamd_t context. Since it is installed as part of amavisd-new, it should be able to run with access to some areas labeled as amavis_t.

Start amavisd 2. Start clamd.amavisd Actual results: avc: denied { create } for comm="clamd.amavisd" dev=sda2 egid=104 euid=103 exe="/usr/sbin/clamd" exit=5 fsgid=104 fsuid=103 gid=104 items=0 name="clamd.pid" pid=3137 scontext=system_u:system_r:clamd_t:s0 sgid=104 subj=system_u:system_r:clamd_t:s0 suid=103 tclass=file tcontext=system_u:object_r:amavis_var_run_t:s0 tty=(none) uid=103 Expected results: No denial should exist Additional info: Running in permissive mode.
So clamd is trying to create its pid file under /var/run/amavis?
yes, it want's to create it's clamd.pid file there. it wants create and getattr perms. i assume this is so it can create the file, then check if it's there to determine if it's running (for init, i think).
Fixed in selinux-policy-2.4.6-69
