Description Ron Gonzalez 2013-08-13 18:21:59 UTC
Description of problem:
Upgrade to F18 causes new issue with TOR service and Selinux default policies.
SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/tor from 'name_bind' accesses on the tcp_socket .

*****  Plugin catchall_boolean (89.3 confidence) suggests  *******************

If you want to allow tor daemon to bind tcp sockets to all unreserved ports.
Then you must tell SELinux about this by enabling the 'tor_bind_all_unreserved_ports' boolean.
You can read 'hplip_selinux' man page for more details.
Do
setsebool -P tor_bind_all_unreserved_ports 1

*****  Plugin catchall (11.6 confidence) suggests  ***************************

If you believe that tor should be allowed name_bind access on the  tcp_socket 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 tor /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

Looks like there is a boolean for this, listed in the alert.

*****  Plugin catchall_boolean (89.3 confidence) suggests  *******************

If you want to allow tor daemon to bind tcp sockets to all unreserved ports.
Then you must tell SELinux about this by enabling the 'tor_bind_all_unreserved_ports' boolean.
You can read 'hplip_selinux' man page for more details.
Do
setsebool -P tor_bind_all_unreserved_ports 1
