Ok I spoke too soon.

Current situation:

httpd booleans

--------------

[root@garryowen ~]# getsebool -a | grep http

allow_httpd_anon_write --> on

allow_httpd_bugzilla_script_anon_write --> off

allow_httpd_cvs_script_anon_write --> off

allow_httpd_mod_auth_pam --> off

allow_httpd_prewikka_script_anon_write --> off

SELinux contexts

----------------

cd /var/pub/ftp

user directory

drwxr-xr-x healyp ftpgrp root:object_r:public_content_rw_t healyp

cd healyp

drwxr-xr-x healyp ftpgrp root:object_r:public_content_rw_t public_html

^^^^^^

cd public_html

drwxr-xr-x healyp ftpgrp root:object_r:httpd_sys_script_exec_t cgi-bin

^^^

cd cgi-bin

-rwxr-xr-x healyp ftpgrp root:object_r:httpd_sys_script_exec_t survey.cgi

^^^

Do these look correct.

Now when I switch SElinux to enforcing it doesn't work, when I switch it to permissive I get a different AVC.

[SELinux is in permissive mode, the operation would have been denied but was permitted due to permissive mode.]

SELinux denied access requested by suexec. It is not expected that this access is required by suexec 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 ./ftp,

restorecon -v './ftp'

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 FAQ Or you can disable SELinux protection altogether. Disabling SELinux protection is not recommended. Please file a bug report against this package.

Now I can generate a local policy to allow access.

Thanks,

Tony
