[SELinux] SELinux set to anything except "permissive" causes issues with UDisks usage #201

Closed mcdope closed 1 month ago

mcdope commented 1 year ago

Understood

No, I'm just too lazy to provide the data you request for a bug

Text

This was already triaged in #199. It seems SELinux prevents accessing UDisks (or dbus? tbd) from the pam module at least on tty.

Maybe this was also the cause for #141, but this is waiting for reporter feedback.

Todos: [ ] Find a working SELinux config (except setting it to permissive :stuck_out_tongue: ) [ ] Document that config for source installs [ ] Ship that config with the packages if possible

Doc on how to diagnose such stuff: https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/diagnose-selinux-violations

... and even better, it mentions a tool to turn a fail log into an allowance config.

Maybe fixed by #229, will test in the coming days...

mcdope commented 2 months ago

Seems to actually be fixed by that, lol. So SELinux just didn't liked my crappy C.

pamusb-check reports "fine", sudo works, login doesn't work though. still investigating. At least it doesn't crash anymore

Interestingly, the behaviour is different on F40

Still getting the dbus errors from https://github.com/mcdope/pam_usb/issues/201#issuecomment-2214750336 on F37 though. Unrelated I guess?

Considering it's now working on the latest Fedora with the new profile, and lack of feedback and/or interest, and lack of distributions actually shipping SELinux... This is done.

Will merge the Fedora profile I've created, but it won't be installed by default or shipped in packages. Instead I will add a wiki entry pointing to the files and how to install them, also having a tutorial on how to create your own profile.
