Data flow is: Squid -> c-icap (via TCP) -> c-icap virus_scan module -> c-icap clamd_mod module c-icap's TmpDir is set to /var/tmp so my guess is that its c-icap which is writing the object to scan to the CI_TMP file which it then passes to its virus_scan module which ultimately gets passed to clamd through the clamd_mod c-icap module. I can't tell this explicitly from the documentation at [1] though so this is just an educated guess. Mark.

Looks like a stdout redirection or leaked file descriptor. Do you have something like script << _EOF command command comand _EOF Where clamd is running as one of the commands? Or some other tmp file being created in /var/tmp/CI_TMP Which is being passed on to clamd On 09/12/2014 11:11 AM, Watts M.R. wrote: I’m currently trying to integrate Squid, c-icap and clamd together to get A/V scanning of objects through squid on a CentOS 6.5 server. I have things working but every time I try and download the eicar.com test virus, I see the following in the logs: type=AVC msg=audit(1410534437.751:227204): avc: denied { write } for pid=22480 comm="clamd" path="/var/tmp/CI_TMP_DaewkQ" dev=dm-1 ino=182 scontext=unconfined_u:system_r:antivirus_t:s0 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:initrc_tmp_t:s0 tclass=file For the record, this server has been hardened according to the CIS CentOS 6.5 benchmark document. /tmp and /var/tmp are mounted as so, if this matters: /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-tmp on /tmp type ext4 (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) /tmp on /var/tmp type none (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,bind) If I set “semanage permissive -a clamd_t” then everything works. Audit2allow suggests I need the following, but I’m not really understanding why: allow antivirus_t initrc_tmp_t:file write; Any guidance?
