seaudit report detail
- by user1014130
I've just started using selinux in the last 6 months and am getting to grips with it.
However, using sealert on a new CENTOS 6 server, Im not getting the level of detail I was with CENTOS 5. To illustrate:
Running
sealert -a /var/log/audit/audit.log
On CENTOS 5 I get:
Summary:
SELinux is preventing postdrop (postfix_postdrop_t) "getattr" to
/var/log/httpd/error_log (httpd_log_t).
Detailed Description:
SELinux denied access requested by postdrop. It is not expected that
this access is required by postdrop and this access may signal an
intrusion attempt. It is also possible that the specific version or
configuration of the application is causing it to require additional
access.
Allowing Access:
Sometimes labeling problems can cause SELinux denials. You could try
to restore the default system file context for
/var/log/httpd/error_log,
restorecon -v '/var/log/httpd/error_log'
If this does not work, there is currently no automatic way to allow
this access. Instead, you can generate a local policy module to allow
this access - see FAQ
(http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Or you can
disable SELinux protection altogether. Disabling SELinux protection is
not recommended. Please file a bug report
(http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi) against this
package.

but on CENTOS 6 I just get:

Im running exactly the same command. Does anyone have any idea why Im not getting the "Additional information" that I do with CENTOS 5?
Thanks in advance
