SELinux interfering with clamav?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



A couple times a day (23 times in 10 days), I get the following AVC:

Summary
    SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/clamav-milter (clamd_t) "search" to
    <Unknown> (bin_t).

Detailed Description
    SELinux denied access requested by /usr/sbin/clamav-milter. It is
not
    expected that this access is required by /usr/sbin/clamav-milter and
this
    access may signal an intrusion attempt. It is also possible that the
    specific version or configuration of the application is causing it
to
    require additional access.

Allowing Access
    Sometimes labeling problems can cause SELinux denials.  You could
try to
    restore the default system file context for <Unknown>, restorecon -v
    <Unknown> If this does not work, there is currently no automatic way
to
    allow this access. Instead,  you can generate a local policy module
to allow
    this access - see
http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385
    Or you can disable SELinux protection altogether. Disabling SELinux
    protection is not recommended. Please file a
    http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi against this
package.

I assume that we want to allow clamav to scan anything on the system,
yes?  If I follow the advice from an earlier Email and try the
following:

grep clamav /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M clamav

I get a file that contains:


module clamav 1.0;

require {
	type bin_t;
	type clamd_t;
	class dir search;
}

#============= clamd_t ==============
allow clamd_t bin_t:dir search;


Is this something that should be part of standard policy?  Hmm, I try to
install the above policy and get a complaint:

# semodule -i clamav.pp 
libsepol.print_missing_requirements: clamav's global requirements were
not met: type/attribute clamd_t
libsemanage.semanage_link_sandbox: Link packages failed
semodule:  Failed!


Any thoughts?

            Thanks

               Eddie
