(Userspace) AVC denial generated even if allowed by the policy?

Hi,

I'm still looking at adding SELinux support in the "at" daemon and I now have the following patch[0].

With this patch, at seems to behave like the cron daemon, as explained in the commit log:

    - When cron_userdomain_transition is set to off, a process for an
      unconfined user will transition to unconfined_cronjob_t. For confined
      user, the job is run as cronjob_t.

    - When cron_userdomain_transition is set to on, the processes are run
      under the user default context.

But every time an AVC denial is generated (with cron_userdomain_transition set to off and the user running as staff_u, in permissive with unmodified refpolicy):

avc: denied { entrypoint } for scontext=staff_u:staff_r:cronjob_t:s0 tcontext=staff_u:object_r:user_cron_spool_t:s0 tclass=file

The job runs as (id -Z): staff_u:staff_r:cronjob_t:s0

But audit2{allow,why} are saying that this is already allowed in the policy

Setting the cron_userdomain_transition boolean to on, I have the following avc:

avc: denied { entrypoint } for scontext=staff_u:sysadm_r:sysadm_t:s0 tcontext=staff_u:object_r:user_cron_spool_t:s0 tclass=file

The job runs as (id -Z): staff_u:sysadm_r:sysadm_t:s0

So as said it seems to work, but I'm not sure why this AVC denial is generated.

sesearch shows:

$ sesearch -ATSC  -t user_cron_spool_t -c file -p entrypoint
Found 6 semantic av rules:
allow files_unconfined_type file_type : file { ioctl read write create getattr setattr lock relabelfrom relabelto append unlink link rename execute swapon quotaon mounton execute_no_trans entrypoint open audit_access } ; DT allow unconfined_t user_cron_spool_t : file entrypoint ; [ cron_userdomain_transition ] DT allow user_t user_cron_spool_t : file entrypoint ; [ cron_userdomain_transition ] EF allow cronjob_t user_cron_spool_t : file entrypoint ; [ cron_userdomain_transition ] DT allow staff_t user_cron_spool_t : file entrypoint ; [ cron_userdomain_transition ] DT allow sysadm_t user_cron_spool_t : file entrypoint ; [ cron_userdomain_transition ]

Did I overlooked something?

Cheers,
