SELinux interfering with clamav?

[Edward Kuns]

Interesting.  After I enabled the last policy, I get one new AVC about
lnk files.  I make a new policy using the same method as before and now
I get this policy:

module myclamav 1.0;

require {
        type bin_t;
        type clamd_t;
        class lnk_file read;
        class dir search;
}

#============= clamd_t ==============
allow clamd_t bin_t:dir search;
allow clamd_t bin_t:lnk_file read;

I'll let you know if more show up with the modified policy above
applied.  Here is the AVC:

Summary
    SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/clamav-milter (clamd_t) "read" to
<Unknown>
    (bin_t).

Detailed Description
    SELinux denied access requested by /usr/sbin/clamav-milter. It is
not
    expected that this access is required by /usr/sbin/clamav-milter and
this
    access may signal an intrusion attempt. It is also possible that the
    specific version or configuration of the application is causing it
to
    require additional access.

Allowing Access
    Sometimes labeling problems can cause SELinux denials.  You could
try to
    restore the default system file context for <Unknown>, restorecon -v
    <Unknown> If this does not work, there is currently no automatic way
to
    allow this access. Instead,  you can generate a local policy module
to allow
    this access - see
http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385
    Or you can disable SELinux protection altogether. Disabling SELinux
    protection is not recommended. Please file a
    http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi against this
package.
