Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

I think it's because of:   reporter-mailx -v -d $crash_PATH -c mailx.conf

# cat mailx.conf 
EmailFrom = abrt@localhost
EmailTo = root@localhost
Subject = [abrt] crash

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

libreport-2.0.9-1.el6.x86_64
abrt-2.0.8-1.el6.x86_64
selinux-policy-3.7.19-137.el6.noarch

How reproducible:

always

Comment 2 Miroslav Grepl 2012-02-28 13:25:08 UTC
Could you test it in permissive module with disabled dontaudit rules?

Comment 3 Milos Malik 2012-02-28 13:36:13 UTC
Those AVCs appeared on a machine with disabled dontaudit rules, didn't they ?

> Could you test it in permissive module with disabled dontaudit rules?

Yes, if you tell me how do I disable dontaudit rules in permissive mode.

(In reply to comment #3)

Don't remember changing anything on that Beaker box.

Comment 5 Milos Malik 2012-02-28 14:04:44 UTC
Following command enables dontaudit rules again.

# semodule -B

I believe that AVCs shown in comment#0 will not appear again.

Comment 6 Michal Nowak 2012-02-28 15:28:58 UTC
After `setenforce 0; semodule -B` it's gone. Unfortunately I can't reproduce it after restart and `setenforce 1`; however I am not certain we care at all.

Comment 7 Daniel Walsh 2012-02-28 16:40:11 UTC
THose AVC's are dontaudited.

Comment 8 Miroslav Grepl 2012-02-28 17:05:20 UTC
Ok, lets clean up it.

I thought this was not working and you needed to turn off dontaudit rules.

Comment 9 Michal Nowak 2012-02-29 15:23:52 UTC
I was wrong. After:

# setenforce 0
# semodule -B

I got:

type=AVC msg=audit(1330528571.018:51700): avc:  denied  { rlimitinh } for  pid=27020 comm="load_policy" scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:semanage_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:load_policy_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tclass=process

Is that expected?

After:

# setenforce 1
# semodule -B

It was clean.

Comment 10 Miroslav Grepl 2012-03-07 11:28:30 UTC
I believe you see this avc msgs with semodule -DB. If I am wrong, please reopen the bug.
