Description Ondrej Moriš 2011-04-22 09:59:55 UTC
Description of problem:

Selinux is preventing kadmin from setched operation. Even though this denial has (probably) not any harmfull effect (i.e. everything works fine), I am quite sure that the test triggering this AVC does not do anything specific or unsual and hence there is probably missing rule / transition in the policy.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

selinux-policy-targeted-3.7.19-84.el6.noarch
selinux-policy-3.7.19-84.el6.noarch

How reproducible:

Always.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Run RHTS test /CoreOS/openldap/Sanity/integration-kerberos.
2. Run ausearch -m AVC -ts recent.
  
Actual results:

type=AVC msg=audit(1303374113.787:46063): avc:  denied  { setsched } for  pid=6402 comm="kadmind" scontext=unconfined_u:system_r:kadmind_t:s0 tcontext=unconfined_u:system_r:kadmind_t:s0 tclass=process

Expected results:

No AVC.

Additional info:

I am not sure if such a reproducer is correct. If not, I will be more than happy to provide a more detailed one. Just ask.

I fixed this in F15 and F16 policy.  Needs back port to RHEL5 and RHEL6 as well as F14

Comment 2 Miroslav Grepl 2011-05-27 11:56:55 UTC
Fixed in selinux-policy-3.7.19-96.el6
