SELinux is preventing /sbin/consoletype from 'ioctl' accesses on the chr_file /dev/null. ***** Plugin restorecon (85.9 confidence) suggests ************************* If you want to fix the label. /dev/null default label should be null_device_t. Then you can run restorecon. Do # /sbin/restorecon -v /dev/null ***** Plugin file (7.33 confidence) suggests ******************************* If you think this is caused by a badly mislabeled machine. Then you need to fully relabel. Do touch /.autorelabel; reboot ***** Plugin file (7.33 confidence) suggests ******************************* If you think this is caused by a badly mislabeled machine. Then you need to fully relabel. Do touch /.autorelabel; reboot ***** Plugin catchall (1.35 confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that consoletype should be allowed ioctl access on the null chr_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 consoletype /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:system_r:consoletype_t:s0 Target Context unconfined_u:object_r:file_t:s0 Target Objects /dev/null [ chr_file ] Source consoletype Source Path /sbin/consoletype Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages initscripts-9.30-2.fc15 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.9.16-38.fc15 Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Permissive Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 2.6.40.4-5.fc15.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Aug 30 14:38:32 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen Fri 09 Sep 2011 12:48:36 AM CDT Last Seen Fri 09 Sep 2011 12:48:36 AM CDT Local ID 831633e0-ee91-40a4-b7f4-a48dd646fa5f Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1315547316.623:2434): avc: denied { ioctl } for pid=22107 comm="consoletype" path="/dev/null" dev=dm-3 ino=32 scontext=unconfined_u:system_r:consoletype_t:s0 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:file_t:s0 tclass=chr_file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1315547316.623:2434): arch=x86_64 syscall=ioctl success=no exit=ENOTTY a0=0 a1=541c a2=7fff38dd072f a3=7fff38dd0420 items=0 ppid=22106 pid=22107 auid=500 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=pts0 ses=1 comm=consoletype exe=/sbin/consoletype subj=unconfined_u:system_r:consoletype_t:s0 key=(null) Hash: consoletype,consoletype_t,file_t,chr_file,ioctl audit2allow #============= consoletype_t ============== allow consoletype_t file_t:chr_file ioctl; audit2allow -R #============= consoletype_t ============== allow consoletype_t file_t:chr_file ioctl;
