FC5: Problem with acroread and CISCO VPN
by Klaus Steinberger
Hello,
in Fedora Core 5 selinux blocks execution of the CISCO vpnclient, as well as
acroread:
[klaus.steinberger@noname ~]$ acroread

My system is up2date:

selinux-policy-targeted-2.2.34-3.fc5
[klaus.steinberger@noname ~]$ rpm -q acroread
acroread-7.0.5-2.2
[klaus.steinberger@noname ~]$
I'm currently not to familiar with selinux, so the only workaround I know is
to "setenforce 0".
Sincerly,
Klaus

NFS sharing is blocked
by Aurelien Bompard
Hi all,
Since the last policy upgrade, I can't share my NFS dir. Since this
directory is also available through apache, I had to set its type to
httpd_sys_content_t.
I'm getting this type of message :
type=AVC msg=audit(1146845517.056:16545): avc: denied { getattr } for
pid=8729 comm="rpc.mountd" name="musique" dev=md0 ino=17039419
scontext=user_u:system_r:nfsd_t:s0
tcontext=user_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0 tclass=dir
Which type should it be labeled to to be seen from NFS and from Apache (and
from FTP by the way) ?
Which leads me to another question: is there a tool to view which
file_contexts a program is allowed to access ? If there isn't, do you think
it wouldn't be hard to write one (can the python bindings do that) ?
Thanks
Aurélien

Re: Disable for java?
by Fred Harris
Thanks for replying.
Bruno, I tried doing what you said, but had to use
setsebool -P allow_execmem true ('true' instead of 'on')
is that the same thing? I think it was already enabled anyway.
The problem I'm getting is with message logging, not with
enabling.
Paul, the messages I'm getting are the following.
>>>
May 4 16:50:32 bd1 kernel: audit(1146786631.723:22): avc: granted { execmem } for pid=2159 comm="java" scontext=root:system_r:initrc_t:s0 tcontext=root:system_r:initrc_t:s0 tclass=process
<<<
Why would installing in other than /opt make a difference? I used to install in
/usr/java, but Fedora says that /opt is where you should install a comprehensive
package like the JDK. I purposely don't install the GNU JDK because there
are lots of bugs in it I've found.
How do you update to the latest policy for SELinux? I yumed to the latest Kernel. I can't find a package for SELinux, though.
I think I'm not getting some very basic stuff about working with SELinux. It's pretty confusing to me. I've searched most of the FAQs and explanations
I can find on Google. Is there a simple, good link that explains it all? For instance I have this basic question about whether or not you can turn off
monitoring for a specific application like java_home/bin/java. It seems to me that something like that would be absolutely necessary while apps get up to speed with SELinux.
Thanks.

Re: Disable for java?
by Fred Harris
BTW, sorry, I'm not sure if I made this clear. The reason execmem message logging is a problem is that they're flooding my logs and are making log reading very difficult. It seems to be about a couple of hundred messages at Tomcat startup and another couple hundred every hour, so it's a big pain to deal with them.
Thanks

Disable for java?
by Fred Harris
Is there any way to disable selinux for java? I tried
chcon -t java_exec_t /opt/java
which I found searching around, and that didn't work.
The problem I'm having is that I'm getting a million messages
complaining about "execmem", I guess having something to
do with accessing shared memory. I'm trying to run Tomcat
and get about 100 messages per minute, so I'm faced
with either turning off selinux completely, turning off
the error logging on selinux, or turning off selinux
for java specifically.
I'm running the latest Sun Java version.
Thanks.

Re: lame/libxvidcore & execstack
by Ted Rule
Erm. Doesn't that break "rpm -V" file consistency checking?
Shouldn't it rather be done at the end of the rpm SPEC %install phase
during the RPM build rather than during RPM install itself?

failed to customize policy, SELinux won't let me
by Florin Andrei
Fresh FC5 install (not an update) on an Intel 32bit CPU.
Applied all updates, reboot, let anacron do its job, reboot.
Installed Postfix and Cyrus-IMAPd
While testing Postfix with Cyrus I got this:
May 3 09:38:25 stantz kernel: audit(1146674305.211:305): avc: denied
{ search } for pid=3441 comm="lmtp" name="lib" dev=hda2 ino=2293761
scontext=user_u:system_r:postfix_master_t:s0
tcontext=system_u:object_r:var_lib_t:s0 tclass=dir
OK, fine, I go here and follow the steps (all the time working in
the /root/selinux directory):
http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#faq-entry-local.te
However, I can't seem to load the local module:
# /usr/sbin/semodule -i local.pp
/usr/sbin/semodule: Could not read file 'local.pp':
# ls
local.fc local.if local.pp local.te tmp
# cat local.te
policy_module(local, 1.0)
require {
type postfix_master_t;
type var_lib_t;
}
allow postfix_master_t var_lib_t:dir search;
In the logs I get this:
audit(1146674668.001:307): avc: denied { search } for pid=3569
comm="semodule" name="selinux" dev=hda4 ino=6501763
scontext=user_u:system_r:semanage_t:s0
tcontext=user_u:object_r:user_home_t:s0 tclass=dir
What is going on?
