Subject: [PATCH] selinux: don't log SELINUX_INFO and SELINUX_WARNING messages
4fbe94
 to audit
4fbe94
4fbe94
Previously we logged even info message from libselinux as USER_AVC's to
4fbe94
audit. For example, setting SELinux to permissive mode generated
4fbe94
following audit message,
4fbe94
4fbe94
time->Tue Feb 26 11:29:29 2019
4fbe94
type=USER_AVC msg=audit(1551198569.423:334): pid=1 uid=0 auid=4294967295 ses=4294967295 subj=system_u:system_r:init_t:s0 msg='avc:  received setenforce notice (enforcing=0)  exe="/usr/lib/systemd/systemd" sauid=0 hostname=? addr=? terminal=?'
4fbe94
4fbe94
This is unnecessary and wrong at the same time. First, kernel already
4fbe94
records audit event that SELinux was switched to permissive mode, also
4fbe94
the type of the message really shouldn't be USER_AVC.
4fbe94
4fbe94
Let's ignore SELINUX_WARNING and SELINUX_INFO and forward to audit only
4fbe94
USER_AVC's and errors as these two libselinux message types have clear
4fbe94
mapping to audit message types.
4fbe94
4fbe94
(cherry picked from commit 6227fc14c48c4c17daed4b91f61cdd4aa375790a)

Resolves: #1763612
