This is rather intriguing. There must have been some compelling
reason why we intentionally skipped listener sockets for SELinux
labelling originally, but I'm struggling to recall what it could
have been. Conceptually it makes sense to want to label the
listener sockets with the per-VM label.


Could it be that we only thought about the scenario of someone
connecting to the socket (and the fact that it matters more what the
actual socket label is rather than its file representation) but did not
think about other possibilities, e.g. QEMU rewriting the socket (because
we remove it before starting or any other reason) or some custom policy?

How did you come across this issue ?  Is there a particular
deployment/usage sceanrio where you're tripping up over this
flaw ?

Yes, setting custom MLS labels on the VMs (replacing the default sVirt
type and random categories) resulted in sockets being created with the
system policy's type and SystemLow.  So then there are denials for
QEMU and user processes running at specific MLS levels trying to work
with the sockets' unexpected type and level.  It's a customized
appliance-specific SELinux policy.
