Description of problem: SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/boinc_client from 'read' accesses on the file unix. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that boinc_client should be allowed read access on the unix 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 boinc_client /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:boinc_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:proc_net_t:s0 Target Objects unix [ file ] Source boinc_client Source Path /usr/bin/boinc_client Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages boinc-client-7.0.65-1.git79b00ef.fc18.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.11.1-97.fc18.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.9.6-200.fc18.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Jun 13 18:56:55 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 6 First Seen 2013-07-01 08:02:33 CEST Last Seen 2013-07-12 22:41:19 CEST Local ID daad25ae-bd0f-40df-b998-0e179e0fde45 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1373661679.380:350): avc: denied { read } for pid=3934 comm="boinc_client" name="unix" dev="proc" ino=4026532002 scontext=system_u:system_r:boinc_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:proc_net_t:s0 tclass=file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1373661679.380:350): arch=x86_64 syscall=access success=no exit=EACCES a0=7f29db584620 a1=4 a2=7f29db58462e a3=1c items=0 ppid=1156 pid=3934 auid=4294967295 uid=991 gid=988 euid=991 suid=991 fsuid=991 egid=988 sgid=988 fsgid=988 ses=4294967295 tty=(none) comm=boinc_client exe=/usr/bin/boinc_client subj=system_u:system_r:boinc_t:s0 key=(null) Hash: boinc_client,boinc_t,proc_net_t,file,read audit2allow #============= boinc_t ============== allow boinc_t proc_net_t:file read; audit2allow -R require { type boinc_t; } #============= boinc_t ============== kernel_read_network_state(boinc_t) Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.1.5 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.9.6-200.fc18.x86_64 type: libreport
Does everything work correctly?
Probably yes. At the moment boinc seems to be crunching fine and I haven't noticed any failed boinc tasks, just the selinux warning.
