        class capability { dac_read_search dac_override };
}

kodai, could you please check whether there is anything to be done here?

Comment by Kevin COUSIN [ 2015 Nov 19 ]

I use the RPM provided by Zabbix repo, that's why I post here. Perhaps I need to open a bug in RedHat Bugzilla on selinux-policy.

Comment by Kodai Terashima [ 2015 Nov 24 ]

I cannot reproduce it with selinux-policy and selinux-policy-targeted packages. Please check your SELinux configuration, selinux-policy package doesn't have any policy files.

Issue closed for now, feel free to reopen if will be really required.

I have checked on clean CentOS Linux release 7.3.1611 (Core) and the same issue.

#============= zabbix_agent_t ==============
allow zabbix_agent_t self:capability { dac_read_search dac_override };
allow zabbix_agent_t self:process setrlimit;

[root@v101 ~]# yum info zabbix-agent
