Summary: SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/dhcpd access to a leaked /var/log/cobbler/tasks/2010-02-28_130429_sync.log file descriptor. Detailed Description: [dhcpd has a permissive type (dhcpd_t). This access was not denied.] SELinux denied access requested by the dhcpd command. It looks like this is either a leaked descriptor or dhcpd output was redirected to a file it is not allowed to access. Leaks usually can be ignored since SELinux is just closing the leak and reporting the error. The application does not use the descriptor, so it will run properly. If this is a redirection, you will not get output in the /var/log/cobbler/tasks/2010-02-28_130429_sync.log. You should generate a bugzilla on selinux-policy, and it will get routed to the appropriate package. You can safely ignore this avc. Allowing Access: You can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ (http://docs.fedoraproject.org/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:dhcpd_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:var_log_t:s0 Target Objects /var/log/cobbler/tasks/2010-02-28_130429_sync.log [ file ] Source dhcpd Source Path /usr/sbin/dhcpd Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages dhcp-4.1.1-5.fc12 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.6.32-89.fc12 Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Plugin Name leaks Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 2.6.31.12-174.2.22.fc12.i686.PAE #1 SMP Fri Feb 19 19:10:04 UTC 2010 i686 i686 Alert Count 3 First Seen Sun 28 Feb 2010 13:04:30 GMT Last Seen Sun 28 Feb 2010 13:04:30 GMT Local ID 62094a88-69ad-4f49-87ba-a4f5f0a14e08 Line Numbers Raw Audit Messages node=(removed) type=AVC msg=audit(1267362270.830:48724): avc: denied { read write } for pid=4980 comm="dhcpd" path="/var/log/cobbler/tasks/2010-02-28_130429_sync.log" dev=dm-0 ino=2758689 scontext=system_u:system_r:dhcpd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:var_log_t:s0 tclass=file node=(removed) type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1267362270.830:48724): arch=40000003 syscall=11 success=yes exit=0 a0=9f75288 a1=9f752d8 a2=9f754f8 a3=9f752d8 items=0 ppid=4979 pid=4980 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm="dhcpd" exe="/usr/sbin/dhcpd" subj=system_u:system_r:dhcpd_t:s0 key=(null) Hash String generated from leaks,dhcpd,dhcpd_t,var_log_t,file,read,write audit2allow suggests: #============= dhcpd_t ============== allow dhcpd_t var_log_t:file { read write };
Miroslav, lets pull in the policy from F13 for cobbler. Make sure it is permissive.
And add optional_policy(` cobbler_dontaudit_rw_log(dhcpd_t) ')
