I'm running RHEL 5.1 with the mls policy. I'm getting an avc denial that I can't get past. Here are the entries from the audit log: type=AVC msg=audit(1197658847.835:9499): avc: denied { create } for pid=20432 comm="touch" name="tmp.log" scontext=sysadm_u:sysadm_r:sysadm_t:s0-s4:c0.c255 tcontext=sysadm_u:object_r:audit_log_t:s0-s4:c0.c255 tclass=file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1197658847.835:9499): arch=c000003e syscall=2 success=no exit=-13 a0=7fff74eceb5c a1=941 a2=1b6 a3=328dd4b0ac items=0 ppid=12410 pid=20432 auid=11000 uid=11000 gid=4500 euid=11000 suid=11000 fsuid=11000 egid=4500 sgid=4500 fsgid=4500 tty=pts3 comm="touch" exe="/bin/touch" subj=sysadm_u:sysadm_r:sysadm_t:s0-s4:c0.c255 key=(null) Here is what audit2allow returns: #============= sysadm_t ============== # src="sysadm_t" tgt="audit_log_t" class="file", perms="create" # comm="touch" exe="" path="" allow sysadm_t audit_log_t:file create; I have entered that exact allow rule into my policy to no effect. Audit2why indicates that the reason for the above audit log avc denial is a missing allow rule, as opposed to a constraint problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
