Description Vincent Brillault 2012-09-13 12:12:51 UTC 
The current tunable policy that enables the nginx http server is:
'''
tunable_policy(`gentoo_nginx_enable_http_server',`
        corenet_tcp_bind_http_port(nginx_t)
        apache_read_sys_content(nginx_t)
')
'''

This tunable policy doesn't give access to any content with the context 'httpd_sys_rw_content_t'. An additionnal 'apache_read_all_rw_content(nginx_t)' would partialy fixe the problem.

It's probably ok to use "apache_manage_all_rw_content(nginx_t)".

The rw-content is content defined to be writeable by webservers, so...
Comment 2 Sven Vermeulen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-09-29 18:23:31 UTC 
Will be part of -r6 release. Is committed to repository so live ebuilds should already provide it.
Comment 3 Sven Vermeulen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-11-03 17:35:18 UTC 
In hardened-dev, r6 release
Comment 4 Sven Vermeulen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-11-18 15:27:46 UTC 
In main tree, ~arch'ed
Comment 5 Sven Vermeulen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-12-13 10:12:36 UTC
