SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/python from 'getattr' accesses on the file /etc/localtime. ***** Plugin restorecon (99.5 confidence) suggests ************************* If you want to fix the label. /etc/localtime default label should be locale_t. Then you can run restorecon. Do # /sbin/restorecon -v /etc/localtime ***** Plugin catchall (1.49 confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that python should be allowed getattr access on the localtime file 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 system-config-f /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:firewallgui_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Context system_u:object_r:etc_runtime_t:s0 Target Objects /etc/localtime [ file ] Source system-config-f Source Path /usr/bin/python Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages python-2.7.1-7.fc15 Target RPM Packages glibc-2.13.90-9 Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.9.16-24.fc15 Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Permissive Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 2.6.38.6-27.fc15.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun May 15 17:23:28 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen Sun 29 May 2011 02:57:24 AM CDT Last Seen Sun 29 May 2011 02:57:24 AM CDT Local ID 7ca4eedd-2731-4eaf-9f20-85f68db214d7 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1306655844.9:148): avc: denied { getattr } for pid=3005 comm="system-config-f" path="/etc/localtime" dev=dm-0 ino=5363 scontext=system_u:system_r:firewallgui_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:etc_runtime_t:s0 tclass=file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1306655844.9:148): arch=x86_64 syscall=fstat success=yes exit=0 a0=9 a1=7fff01ea94d0 a2=7fff01ea94d0 a3=0 items=0 ppid=3004 pid=3005 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm=system-config-f exe=/usr/bin/python subj=system_u:system_r:firewallgui_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: system-config-f,firewallgui_t,etc_runtime_t,file,getattr audit2allow #============= firewallgui_t ============== allow firewallgui_t etc_runtime_t:file getattr; audit2allow -R #============= firewallgui_t ============== allow firewallgui_t etc_runtime_t:file getattr;
The fix is to restorecon -v /etc/localtime (the type for this file should be locale_t) Can you please restore the context and see if you can reproduce this issue I would like to determine what messed up this context in the first place. Please let me know if you were able to reproduce this event.
