:SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/httpd from 'search' accesses on the directory /var/lib/colord.
:
:*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests  ***************************
:
:If you believe that httpd should be allowed search access on the colord directory 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 httpd /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
:# semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 1 Miroslav Grepl 2012-04-11 07:19:36 UTC
Do you have apache files in /var/lib/colord?

Comment 2 Luya Tshimbalanga 2012-04-11 23:39:23 UTC
No according to the result:

$ ls /var/lib/colord/
icc  mapping.db  storage.db

icc folder is empty

Comment 3 Miroslav Grepl 2012-06-22 14:19:24 UTC
Did it happen again?

Comment 4 Luya Tshimbalanga 2012-06-23 17:22:31 UTC
No, I don't see the problem happening since the last update. It seems the issue is fixed.

Comment 5 Miroslav Grepl 2012-06-25 08:17:01 UTC
OK, thank you. Let's close this bug.

Comment 6 Paulo Roma Cavalcanti 2012-11-01 21:34:00 UTC
I am still seeing this bug on F17 64 bits fully updated:

/usr/bin/httpd
Attempted this access: search
On this directory:

saslauthd
/var/lib/chrony
/var/lib/colord
/var/lib/mpd
/etc/openvpn


It has been this way for a long time ...

Comment 7 Daniel Walsh 2012-11-05 19:51:00 UTC
Paulo please attach your current AVCs

rpm -q selinux-policy

Comment 10 Miroslav Grepl 2012-11-06 09:49:35 UTC
Did it all happen if you were running BackupPC?

Comment 11 Paulo Roma Cavalcanti 2012-11-06 13:43:40 UTC

In F17, if I restart backuppc, I have to restart httpd, 
otherwise no backup is shown in backuppc admin page.
Therefore, this happens every time I restart httpd.

Normally, I have backuppc running all the time,
and backing up on an external usb HD. I have
to check if I stop backuppc and restar httpd, 
whether the avc happens or not ...

Comment 12 Paulo Roma Cavalcanti 2012-11-06 20:57:32 UTC
Even with backuppc stopped the denial occurs ...
