SELinux : audit2allow Basic Usage2019/09/28 |
|
Using [audit2allow] command, it's possible to generate SELinux policy allow rules easily from logs of denied operations.
However, [audit2allow] may allow more access than required, so it's better to configure with
[restorecon] or [chcon] command in cases.
By the way, if [audit2allow] is none on your System, Install with [dnf install policycoreutils-python-utils].

| [1] | Display denial reasons to read log files. If not specified any log file, audit2allow reads [/var/log/audit/audit.log]. If specify log files, set [-i logfile] option instead [-a] option. |

Missing type enforcement (TE) allow rule.

# display required type with -a option [root@dlp ~]# ausearch -m AVC --start 09/28/2019 12:00:00 --end 09/28/2019 18:00:00 | audit2allow -a #============= httpd_t ============== allow httpd_t user_home_dir_t:file getattr; |
| [2] | Generate allow rule like follows. |

# for example, generate [test_rule] module [root@dlp ~]# ausearch -m AVC --start 09/28/2019 12:00:00 --end 09/28/2019 18:00:00 | audit2allow -a -M test_rule ******************** IMPORTANT *********************** To make this policy package active, execute: semodule -i test_rule.pp # install module with the command displayed above [root@dlp ~]# semodule -i test_rule.pp
# make sure the module is loaded [root@dlp ~]# semodule -l | grep test_rule test_rule |
| [3] | That's OK in some cases, but for other cases, it's not yet. If not yet, run [audit2allow] again and make sure the causes. |
