Description of problem: SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/bash from 'read' accesses on the file /usr/sbin/mdadm. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that bash should be allowed read access on the mdadm file 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 sh /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:logwatch_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Context system_u:object_r:mdadm_exec_t:s0 Target Objects /usr/sbin/mdadm [ file ] Source sh Source Path /usr/bin/bash Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages bash-4.2.42-1.fc18.x86_64 Target RPM Packages mdadm-3.2.6-11.fc18.x86_64 Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.11.1-69.fc18.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.7.2-201.fc18.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Jan 11 22:16:23 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 2 First Seen 2013-01-18 03:15:06 GMT Last Seen 2013-01-18 03:15:06 GMT Local ID 1f2a3600-63c4-415a-8217-93f84f3bbbb3 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1358478906.424:522): avc: denied { read } for pid=5884 comm="sh" name="mdadm" dev="dm-0" ino=16727 scontext=system_u:system_r:logwatch_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:mdadm_exec_t:s0 tclass=file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1358478906.424:522): arch=x86_64 syscall=access success=no exit=EACCES a0=261e7d0 a1=4 a2=7fffcd2af8d0 a3=20 items=0 ppid=5883 pid=5884 auid=0 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 ses=27 tty=(none) comm=sh exe=/usr/bin/bash subj=system_u:system_r:logwatch_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: sh,logwatch_t,mdadm_exec_t,file,read audit2allow #============= logwatch_t ============== allow logwatch_t mdadm_exec_t:file read; audit2allow -R #============= logwatch_t ============== allow logwatch_t mdadm_exec_t:file read; Additional info: hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.7.2-201.fc18.x86_64 type: libreport
