SELinux is preventing /sbin/rsyslogd from 'getopt' accesses on the unix_dgram_socket /dev/log. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that rsyslogd should be allowed getopt access on the log unix_dgram_socket by default. Then you should report this as a bug. You can generate a local policy module to allow this access. Do allow this access for now by executing: # grep rsyslogd /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:syslogd_t:s0 Target Context system_u:system_r:initrc_t:s0 Target Objects /dev/log [ unix_dgram_socket ] Source rsyslogd Source Path /sbin/rsyslogd Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages rsyslog-5.7.9-1.fc15 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.9.16-5.fc15 Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Permissive Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 2.6.38-1.fc15.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Mar 15 05:29:00 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 2 First Seen Sat 19 Mar 2011 09:23:21 AM EDT Last Seen Sat 19 Mar 2011 09:28:38 AM EDT Local ID 49a5535e-e93b-45d4-ae58-e031d576d4ad Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1300541318.529:17): avc: denied { getopt } for pid=900 comm="rsyslogd" path="/dev/log" scontext=system_u:system_r:syslogd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:initrc_t:s0 tclass=unix_dgram_socket type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1300541318.529:17): arch=x86_64 syscall=getsockopt success=yes exit=0 a0=3 a1=1 a2=3 a3=7fff1aadddd8 items=0 ppid=1 pid=900 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm=rsyslogd exe=/sbin/rsyslogd subj=system_u:system_r:syslogd_t:s0 key=(null) Hash: rsyslogd,syslogd_t,initrc_t,unix_dgram_socket,getopt audit2allow #============= syslogd_t ============== allow syslogd_t initrc_t:unix_dgram_socket getopt; audit2allow -R #============= syslogd_t ============== allow syslogd_t initrc_t:unix_dgram_socket getopt;
