Description of problem: Logwatch cron job? SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/perl from read, open access on the file /usr/sbin/mdadm. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that perl should be allowed read open 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 perl /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 perl Source Path /usr/bin/perl Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages perl-5.16.2-237.fc18.x86_64 Target RPM Packages mdadm-3.2.6-12.fc18.x86_64 Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.11.1-73.fc18.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.7.4-204.fc18.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Jan 23 16:44:29 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 6 First Seen 2013-02-03 03:15:04 CST Last Seen 2013-02-03 03:15:04 CST Local ID 5f767167-5351-4591-837e-0c0725a391e1 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1359882904.920:926): avc: denied { read open } for pid=10883 comm="perl" path="/usr/sbin/mdadm" dev="dm-0" ino=1712187 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(1359882904.920:926): arch=x86_64 syscall=execve success=no exit=EACCES a0=7fff48e27454 a1=b71ab0 a2=b6e140 a3=8 items=0 ppid=10873 pid=10883 auid=0 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 ses=84 tty=(none) comm=perl exe=/usr/bin/perl subj=system_u:system_r:logwatch_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: perl,logwatch_t,mdadm_exec_t,file,read,open audit2allow #============= logwatch_t ============== allow logwatch_t mdadm_exec_t:file { read open }; audit2allow -R #============= logwatch_t ============== allow logwatch_t mdadm_exec_t:file { read open }; Additional info: hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.7.4-204.fc18.x86_64 type: libreport
