lnk_file read permission

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

 



Hi all,
using selinux, I saw many times that when relocating service dirs (eg: mysql, mongodb, etc) putting a symlink in the original location, the affected services fail to start due to missing lnk_file read permission.

As selinux works with target file label and it is path-agnostic (this is, indeed, a major selinux feature), while is the lnk_file read often not granted by default? Does granting it expose to additional attack vectors?

Thanks.
