Hi, I have an issue I would like to fix properly. I have a policy for mediawiki defined this way: apache_content_template(mediawiki) apache_search_sys_content(httpd_mediawiki_script_t) /var/www/mediawiki/bin(/.*)? gen_context(system_u:object_r:httpd_mediawiki_script_exec_t,s0) /var/www/mediawiki/images(/.*)? gen_context(system_u:object_r:httpd_mediawiki_script_rw_t,s0) /var/www/mediawiki/cache(/.*)? gen_context(system_u:object_r:httpd_mediawiki_script_rw_t,s0) And it works fine. The trouble occurs when you upload a new version of an existing file (any file goes under images, by the way) I assume mediawiki in this case creates a file in some temp directory, removes original file and then moves the file in place. This causes the context to be set like this: d/d6: -rw-r--r-- apache apache system_u:object_r:httpd_tmp_t:s0 Speedtest.png instead of "normal" d/d3: -rw-r--r-- apache apache system_u:object_r:httpd_mediawiki_script_rw_t:s0 PuTTY2.png Here are related AVCs: time->Mon Oct 18 13:45:03 2010 type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1287409503.893:6728): arch=c000003e syscall=4 success=no exit=-13 a0=7fff25eb8490 a1=7fff25eb53c0 a2=7fff25eb53c0 a3=0 items=0 ppid=14205 pid=14206 auid=4294967295 uid=48 gid=48 euid=48 suid=48 fsuid=48 egid=48 sgid=48 fsgid=48 tty=(none) comm="convert" exe="/usr/bin/convert" subj=system_u:system_r:httpd_mediawiki_script_t:s0 key=(null) type=AVC msg=audit(1287409503.893:6728): avc: denied { getattr } for pid=14206 comm="convert" path="/var/www/mediawiki/images/d/d6/Speedtest.png" dev=sda1 ino=737287 scontext=system_u:system_r:httpd_mediawiki_script_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:httpd_tmp_t:s0 tclass=file ---- time->Mon Oct 18 13:45:03 2010 type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1287409503.893:6729): arch=c000003e syscall=2 success=no exit=-13 a0=7fff25eb8490 a1=0 a2=1b6 a3=0 items=0 ppid=14205 pid=14206 auid=4294967295 uid=48 gid=48 euid=48 suid=48 fsuid=48 egid=48 sgid=48 fsgid=48 tty=(none) comm="convert" exe="/usr/bin/convert" subj=system_u:system_r:httpd_mediawiki_script_t:s0 key=(null) type=AVC msg=audit(1287409503.893:6729): avc: denied { read } for pid=14206 comm="convert" name="Speedtest.png" dev=sda1 ino=737287 scontext=system_u:system_r:httpd_mediawiki_script_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:httpd_tmp_t:s0 tclass=file I'd rather not allow mediawiki access to generic httpd_tmp_t, so I wonder if there is a way to enforce the proper context when file is being moved in place?
