Description of problem: SELinux is preventing firewalld from 'search' accesses on the directory /home. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that firewalld should be allowed search access on the home 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 firewalld /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:firewalld_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:home_root_t:s0 Target Objects /home [ dir ] Source firewalld Source Path firewalld Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages filesystem-3.1-2.fc18.x86_64 Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.11.1-74.fc18.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.7.6-201.fc18.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Feb 4 15:54:08 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen 2013-02-09 09:12:49 CET Last Seen 2013-02-09 09:12:49 CET Local ID 160e7c58-b232-4bbd-897e-b8793657e42e Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1360397569.502:4): avc: denied { search } for pid=657 comm="firewalld" name="/" dev="dm-2" ino=2 scontext=system_u:system_r:firewalld_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:home_root_t:s0 tclass=dir Hash: firewalld,firewalld_t,home_root_t,dir,search audit2allow #============= firewalld_t ============== allow firewalld_t home_root_t:dir search; audit2allow -R #============= firewalld_t ============== allow firewalld_t home_root_t:dir search; Additional info: hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.7.6-201.fc18.x86_64 type: libreport
What were you doing when this happened?
*** Bug 981659 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
firewalld is not using /home at all. firewall-config and firewall-applet are using dconf to store user configuration options for the tools in the users home directory. Have you been using firewall-config or firewall-applet?
Firewalld should be using -Es #! /usr/bin/python -Es -E Ignore environment variables like PYTHONPATH and PYTHONHOME that modify the behavior of the interpreter. -s Don't add user site directory to sys.path. This will stop the daemon from searching in /home or /root and getting unexpected errors.
We already had a script to fix the shebangs at installation time, but it was not used anymore. Fixed in GIT: https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/firewalld.git/commit/?id=119d8d35b925caa3b0be9f298be2cf91623aab22
This message is a reminder that Fedora 18 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 18. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '18'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 18 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
