Created attachment 565313 [details] ausearch output +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #796710 +++ This happens during our automated test suite run initiated via cron. Command is 'mailx -H -u root' Output of 'ausearch -m avc -ts recent' attached.
Hi Richard, what is the purpose of that command? Are you redirecting the output to a file? Probably not, right? If I understand it properly, just the execution of mentioned command via cron is producing AVC, is that correct?

In case of screen, avc is produced. In case of cron, it's most probably caught by a noaudit rule.
The bug should be fixed now, but we aren't able to reproduce the bug even with older selinux-policy. Richard, could you please install newer selinux-policy and confirm the bug is really fixed. (the newest version is 3.7.19-143 and can be downloaded from here: http://people.redhat.com/dwalsh/SELinux/RHEL6/noarch/ )
