Description Filip Bartmann 2012-12-28 08:01:43 EST

Description of problem:
SELinux don't allow postqueue to run under sysadm_t


How reproducible:
Run postqueue -p with selinux in enforced mode with sysadmin_t user type.

 
Actual results:
postqueue -p
postqueue: fatal: Connect to the Postfix showq service: Permission denied

and audit2allow show:

allow sysadm_t postfix_master_t:unix_stream_socket connectto;
allow sysadm_t postfix_public_t:sock_file write;

Expected results:
Show postqueue results

Additional info:
When I add this macro:
domtrans_pattern(sysadm_t, postfix_postqueue_exec_t, postfix_postqueue_t)
then all start working fine.

Dan added fixes to Fedora which need to be backported. Thank you for using confined users.
