My audisp plugin has a file-based database in /var/lib/xxx directory.
I
noticed that on systems with SELinux enabled plugin cannot read/write
that file.
According to ps, plugin is run under audisp_t domain:
-bash-4.1$ ps axZ | grep plugin
unconfined_u:system_r:audisp_t:s0 1845 ? S< 0:00 /usr/sbin/plugin 1
Obviously I don't want to disable SELinux. What would be the recommended
way to allow plugin read/write file(s) under /var/run/xxx ?
The plugin should have its own policy. I don't think audisp_t should be
broadened to allow things it shouldn't be doing. There are probably several
people on this list that can give you advice on creating a policy.
