RHBA-2013:0002 - selinux-policy bug fix update
Synopsis
selinux-policy bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Topic
Updated selinux-policy packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
The selinux-policy packages contain the rules that govern how confined processes run on the system.
This update fixes the following bug:
- Previously, the quota_db type was created as the openshift_var_lib_t type. Consequently, an attempt to create a quota system on openshift_var_lib_t failed with a permission error. The relevant part of the SELinux policy has been fixed and the quota system can now be created as expected. (BZ#888381)
Users of selinux-policy 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
