Description Sven Vermeulen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-05-07 08:24:28 UTC
When asking sepolicy to get any information, a backtrace is shown:

"""
  File "/usr/bin/sepolicy-2.7", line 63, in __call__
    from sepolicy.network import domains
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/sepolicy/network.py", line 44, in <module>
    portrecs, portrecsbynum = _gen_port_dict()
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/sepolicy/network.py", line 31, in _gen_port_dict
    for i in info(sepolicy.PORT):
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/sepolicy/__init__.py", line 182, in info
    dict_list = _policy.info(setype, name)
RuntimeError: No such file or directory
"""

This is because the _policy code (policy.c) calls the wrap_info() (info.c), which calls info(), which calls get_ports().

The get_ports() eventually does the following check:
"""
if((range = apol_context_get_range(c)) == NULL)
  goto err;
"""

As a result, systems with no MLS support (like the targeted and strict that we use) break.

Reproducible: Always
