8.3.5. Searching For and Viewing Denials


This section assumes the setroubleshoot, setroubleshoot-server, dbus and audit packages are installed, and that the auditd, rsyslogd, and setroubleshootd daemons are running. Refer to Section 5.2, “Which Log File is Used” for information about starting these daemons. A number of tools are available for searching for and viewing SELinux denials, such as ausearch, aureport, and sealert.

ausearch

The audit package provides the ausearch utility. From the ausearch(8) manual page: "ausearch is a tool that can query the audit daemon logs for events based on different search criteria"[13]. The ausearch utility accesses /var/log/audit/audit.log, and as such, must be run as the Linux root user:
Searching ForCommand
all denialsausearch -m avc
denials for that todayausearch -m avc -ts today
denials from the last 10 minutesausearch -m avc -ts recent
To search for SELinux denials for a particular service, use the -c comm-name option, where comm-name "is the executable’s name"[14], for example, httpd for the Apache HTTP Server, and smbd for Samba:
~]# ausearch -m avc -c httpd
~]# ausearch -m avc -c smbd
With each ausearch command, it is advised to use either the --interpret (-i) option for easier readability, or the --raw (-r) option for script processing. Refer to the ausearch(8) manual page for further ausearch options.

aureport

The audit package provides the aureport utility. From the aureport(8) manual page: "aureport is a tool that produces summary reports of the audit system logs"[15]. The aureport utility accesses /var/log/audit/audit.log, and as such, must be run as the Linux root user. To view a list of SELinux denials and how often each one occurred, run the aureport -a command. The following is example output that includes two denials:
~]# aureport -a

Refer to the aureport(8) manual page for further aureport options.

sealert

The setroubleshoot-server package provides the sealert utility, which reads denial messages translated by setroubleshoot-server. Denials are assigned IDs, as seen in /var/log/messages. The following is an example denial from messages:
setroubleshoot: SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/httpd from name_bind access on the tcp_socket. For complete SELinux messages. run sealert -l 8c123656-5dda-4e5d-8791-9e3bd03786b7
In this example, the denial ID is 8c123656-5dda-4e5d-8791-9e3bd03786b7. The -l option takes an ID as an argument. Running the sealert -l 8c123656-5dda-4e5d-8791-9e3bd03786b7 command presents a detailed analysis of why SELinux denied access, and a possible solution for allowing access.
If you are running the X Window System, have the setroubleshoot and setroubleshoot-server packages installed, and the setroubleshootd, dbus and auditd daemons are running, a warning is displayed when access is denied by SELinux:
An AVC denial message
Clicking on Show launches the sealert GUI, which allows you to troubleshoot the problem:

Alternatively, run the sealert -b command to launch the sealert GUI. To view a detailed analysis of all denial messages, run the sealert -l \* command.
See the sealert(8) manual page for further sealert options.
