Synopsis: Low: selinux-policy enhancement update
Issue date: 2012-07-09

This update adds the following enhancements:

* When the system produces a new SELinux denial, the setroubleshootd daemon
executes the rpm tool to check information about the relevant packages.
Previously, setroubleshootd was unable to execute the rpm tool, and AVC
denials
were logged in the /var/log/audit/audit.log file. With this update, the
relevant
policy has been corrected so that SELinux denials are no longer produced
in the
described scenario.

* A number of additional enhancements have provided by upstream in this
release.

This update has been placed in the security tree to avoid system issues
related
to possible changes in how the applications interface with the selinux
policy.
