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.

Red Hat Product Errata RHBA-2013:0314 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE selinux-policy bug fix and enhancement update 2013-02-20 20:35:01 UTC

Description Irwan 2012-09-03 07:11:26 UTC
Description of problem:
Selinux failed to block access to nfs request

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
1.2.3

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. setsebool -P nfs_export_all_rw off
2. mkdir /myshare
3. chmod 777 /myshare
4. Add "/myshare 192.168.2.0/24(rw,sync)" to /etc/exports
5. exportfs -rv

   On client side:
6. mkdir /myshare
7. mount.nfs nfsserver:/myshare /myshare
8. 
  
Actual results:
Client can mount the nfs share and read/write files.

Expected results:
At this point, client is expected to NOT be able to mount and read/write files because of SELINUX booleans set in step 1.

Additional info:

Comment 2 Daniel Walsh 2012-10-08 19:13:33 UTC
Yes this boolean will not block nfs access since nfs server runs as a kernel process.

The boolean(s) should probably just be removed.

Comment 3 Miroslav Grepl 2012-10-09 08:24:46 UTC
What does

# rpm -q selinux-policy

Comment 4 Miroslav Grepl 2012-10-09 17:58:48 UTC
We have this boolean no longer in the latest policy.
