RHBA-2012:1005 - setroubleshoot bug fix update

Synopsis

setroubleshoot bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated setroubleshoot packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The setroubleshoot packages provide tools to help diagnose SELinux problems. When AVC messages are returned, an alert can be generated that provides information about the problem and helps to track its resolution. Alerts can be customized to user preference. The same tools can used to process log files.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Previously, SELinux Alert Browser did not display alerts even if selinux denials were presented. This was caused by sedispatch, which did not handle audit messages correctly, and users were not able to fix their SELinux issues according to the SELinux alerts. With this update, this bug has been fixed so that users are now able to fix their SELinux issues using setroubleshoot, as expected. (BZ#832186)

All users of setroubleshoot are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/articles/11258
