iptables AVC

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

 



Hi,

I'm running SELinux in enforcing mode on fully updated CentOS-5 servers.

selinux-policy-targeted-2.4.6-279.el5_5.2.noarch

After an upgrade of selinux-policy-targeted last night I'm seeing the following AVC on several of the servers.

[root@garryowen ~]# sealert -l badcaefe-41c9-4fcc-a264-24bff72bcfd7

Summary:

SELinux is preventing iptables (iptables_t) "read write" to socket (initrc_t).

Detailed Description:

SELinux denied access requested by iptables. It is not expected that this access

is required by iptables 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:

You can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ

(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 bug report (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi)

against this package.

I can generate a local policy to allow this.

Tony
