Information

If a device file carries the SELinux type 'unlabeled_t', then SELinux cannot properly restrict access to the device file.

Solution

Device files, which are used for communication with important system resources, should be labeled with proper SELinux types. If any device files carry the SELinux type 'unlabeled_t', investigate the cause and correct the file's context.
