F12: SeLinux reports illegal httpd access to .index files?

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

 



Seems to me, that httpd should not be looking at /usr/share/snmp/.../.index
files?  Notice that the .index file appears and for some reason httpd thinks
it should be looking at it!?!?  I don't know what to make of it.

Here is what I got from selinuxtool:
================================================
Summary:

SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/httpd "write" access to
/usr/share/snmp/mibs/.index.

Detailed Description:

SELinux denied access requested by httpd. /usr/share/snmp/mibs/.index 
may be a
mislabeled. /usr/share/snmp/mibs/.index default SELinux type is 
snmpd_var_lib_t,
but its current type is usr_t. Changing this file back to the default 
type, may
fix your problem.

File contexts can be assigned to a file in the following ways.

   * Files created in a directory receive the file context of the parent
     directory by default.
   * The SELinux policy might override the default label inherited from the
     parent directory by specifying a process running in context A which 
creates
     a file in a directory labeled B will instead create the file with 
label C.
     An example of this would be the dhcp client running with the 
dhclient_t type
     and creating a file in the directory /etc. This file would normally 
receive
     the etc_t type due to parental inheritance but instead the file is 
labeled
     with the net_conf_t type because the SELinux policy specifies this.
   * Users can change the file context on a file using tools such as 
chcon, or
     restorecon.

This file could have been mislabeled either by user error, or if an normally
confined application was run under the wrong domain.

However, this might also indicate a bug in SELinux because the file 
should not
have been labeled with this type.

If you believe this is a bug, please file a bug report against this package.

Allowing Access:

You can restore the default system context to this file by executing the
restorecon command. restorecon '/usr/share/snmp/mibs/.index', if this 
file is a
directory, you can recursively restore using restorecon -R
'/usr/share/snmp/mibs/.index'.

Fix Command:

/sbin/restorecon '/usr/share/snmp/mibs/.index'
