I did not wait for an answer to this and looked at openct.if to see if there is something which might help me. The idea was that if I find something I will then create a custom module implementing it (that does not cure the bug though - if it is a bug it needs to be fixed). So I found this in openct.if - "openct_read_pid_files" which looked like it grants the necessary permissions to the specified domain (local_login_t) and prepared a custom module executing "openct_read_pid_files(local_login_t)". That worked on the test harness, but failed to produce the desired result on my other, non-test machine for which I was building this. I am getting 2 further AVC types below: type=AVC msg=audit(1291573359.027:5): avc: denied { signull } for pid=1553 comm="login" scontext=system_u:system_r:local_login_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:system_r:openct_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tclass=process type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1291573359.027:5): arch=40000003 syscall=37 success=no exit=-13 a0=624 a1=0 a2=2ad788 a3=0 items=0 ppid=1 pid=1553 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=tty1 ses=4294967295 comm="login" exe="/bin/login" subj=system_u:system_r:local_login_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) type=AVC msg=audit(1291573359.046:6): avc: denied { write } for pid=1553 comm="login" name="0" dev=dm-0 ino=8250 scontext=system_u:system_r:local_login_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:openct_var_run_t:s0 tclass=sock_file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1291573359.046:6): arch=40000003 syscall=102 success=no exit=-13 a0=3 a1=bf853ab0 a2=2ad788 a3=89e11e0 items=0 ppid=1 pid=1553 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=tty1 ses=4294967295 comm="login" exe="/bin/login" subj=system_u:system_r:local_login_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) When I do echo 0 > /selinux/enforce and try again I am getting a 3rd AVC in addition to the ones above: type=AVC msg=audit(1291574143.421:66): avc: denied { signull } for pid=1580 comm="login" scontext=system_u:system_r:local_login_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:system_r:openct_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tclass=process type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1291574143.421:66): arch=40000003 syscall=37 success=yes exit=0 a0=65e a1=0 a2=d97788 a3=0 items=0 ppid=1 pid=1580 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=tty1 ses=4294967295 comm="login" exe="/bin/login" subj=system_u:system_r:local_login_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) type=AVC msg=audit(1291574143.430:67): avc: denied { write } for pid=1580 comm="login" name="0" dev=dm-0 ino=8250 scontext=system_u:system_r:local_login_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:openct_var_run_t:s0 tclass=sock_file type=AVC msg=audit(1291574143.430:67): avc: denied { connectto } for pid=1580 comm="login" path="/var/run/openct/0" scontext=system_u:system_r:local_login_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:system_r:openct_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tclass=unix_stream_socket type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1291574143.430:67): arch=40000003 syscall=102 success=yes exit=0 a0=3 a1=bfe9fbb0 a2=d97788 a3=92b51e0 items=0 ppid=1 pid=1580 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=tty1 ses=4294967295 comm="login" exe="/bin/login" subj=system_u:system_r:local_login_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) That stems from the fact that openct opens a socket in /var/run/openct (the socket is called '0' for the first available 'slot' with a token on my smartcard device or has a different number - 1,2,3... if there is a specific token number which needs to be used) and uses it to retrieve the login token for me to login with. So, what I'll do (probably tomorrow when I have the time) is see if there is something else in openct.if which helps with the above problem. In any case I will submit this as a bug though as it needs to be incorporated - at least as a boolean - in the standard policy. Smartcard tokens will be used for login, they may not be widely used now, but that would definitely change in the near future. -- selinux mailing list selinux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/selinux
