      STIG requires that no service execute in unconfined_service_t context (CCE-80867-5).

      Because the executable started by the service unit /usr/lib/systemd/system/iio-sensor-proxy.service is labeled with bin_t, the process becomes unconfined_service_t, which is not acceptable:

      # grep ExecStart /usr/lib/systemd/system/iio-sensor-proxy.service
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/iio-sensor-proxy

# ls -Z /usr/sbin/iio-sensor-proxy
system_u:object_r:bin_t:s0 /usr/sbin/iio-sensor-proxy

      Please fix this, a quick fix is to wrap the executable in a shell:

      ExecStart=/bin/sh -c /usr/sbin/iio-sensor-proxy

      But ideally a dedicated type should be created with appropriate rules.
