Package: selinux-policy-default
Version: 2:2.20140206-1
Severity: important
On a jessie system with refpolicy 2:2.20140206-1, and allow-hotplug
set on the primary network interface, sshd is left running in udev_t,
breaking it thoroughly (and in fact flooding the logs with socket
errors until the machine runs out of disk). bind9, which also has a hotplug
trigger script, is broken by inability of rndc to access auth keys.
My guess as to why:
Removal of the debian-specific refpolicy patches in rev
853ebfe7118c3984ff2b53f51af6f5758d222cd7 had the effect of returning the
contents of /etc/network/if-{up,down}.d/ from initrc_exec_t to etc_t. As
a result, on systems with allow-hotplug on their primary network interfaces
the sshd and any other network-using daemons aware of hotplug will be started
from udev rather than init, and with an etc_t startup script the usual domain
transition doesn't happen.
I'll test out restoring the labelling and see if there's more to this.
Years ago, thus was Bug#503941 at least as it impacted bind.
