Description of problem: We automount via nfs our home directories. Current selinux policy is breaking this: Aug 14 13:19:42 lynx kernel: audit(1187119182.402:133): avc: denied { search } for pid=5824 comm="sshd" name="/" dev=autofs ino=7714 scontext=system_u:system_r:sshd_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:autofs_t:s0 tclass=dir Aug 14 13:19:42 lynx kernel: audit(1187119182.404:134): avc: denied { search } for pid=5824 comm="sshd" name="" dev=0:12 ino=12308737 scontext=system_u:system_r:sshd_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:nfs_t:s0 tclass=dir Aug 14 13:19:42 lynx kernel: audit(1187119182.408:135): avc: denied { getattr } for pid=5824 comm="sshd" path="/home/orion/.ssh/authorized_keys" dev=0:12 ino=12313098 scontext=system_u:system_r:sshd_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:nfs_t:s0 tclass=file Aug 14 13:19:42 lynx kernel: audit(1187119182.411:136): avc: denied { read } for pid=5824 comm="sshd" name="authorized_keys" dev=0:12 ino=12313098 scontext=system_u:system_r:sshd_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:nfs_t:s0 tclass=file Aug 14 13:19:42 lynx kernel: audit(1187119182.413:137): avc: denied { getattr } for pid=5824 comm="sshd" path="/home" dev=autofs ino=7714 scontext=system_u:system_r:sshd_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:autofs_t:s0 tclass=dir Aug 14 13:19:42 lynx kernel: audit(1187119182.414:138): avc: denied { getattr } for pid=5824 comm="sshd" path="/home/orion" dev=0:12 ino=12308737 scontext=system_u:system_r:sshd_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:nfs_t:s0 tclass=dir Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): selinux-policy-3.0.5-5.fc8
Well, the nfs_t denials are probably fixed with use_nfs_home_dirs which wasn't set. I still see the autofs_t denial with it though and it prevents changing to the home directory.
autofs fixed in selinux-policy-3.0.5-7.fc8
Confirmed. Thanks!
