unconfined_service

Posted on

Hi Team,

While doing Nessus scan in one the host we see most the DB services are showing as (unconfined_service_t) as below along with other service. What is the reason for this and is there anyway we can remediate these. Is there any harm if it is run as "unconfined_service_t". Please help me to understand.

[root@localhost ~]# ps -eZ | grep unconfined_service_t
