selinux boolean "httpd_use_nfs" should allow "automount_tmp_t:dir search"

Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

  • When enabling the httpd_use_nfs selinux boolean to allow httpd to access NFS file systems, it still can't access them when they're mounted with autofs:

    type=AVC msg=audit(1372171649.461:44936): avc: denied { search } for pid=30666 comm="httpd" name="automnt"
    dev=dm-0 ino=279666 scontext=unconfined_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0
    tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:automount_tmp_t:s0 tclass=dir [FAILED]
