new selinux alert on F19

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all!

I've been running F19 (alpha and now beta) on my Acer Aspire One D255E
netbook for a few weeks now.

just today when I booted up I got this alert I've not gotten before.
I know how to teach selinux not to alert for that, but I don't know if
it's an action that SHOULD be allowed or not.

It also give another alert, apparently at boot, for complaining that
/usr/sbin/lightdm tried to create file .dmrc.0GT8WW, presumably in
my home directory, though it didn't explicitly say.

Wondering if these are bugs/features introduced in recent updates...

I'd appreciate advice on what to do here.

thanks!

Fred

The alert says:

	   The source process: /usr/libexec/accounts/daemon
	Attempted this access: read
	    on this directory: /var/log


Here's the "details" output:


SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/accounts-daemon from read access on the directory /var/log.

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests  ***************************

If you believe that accounts-daemon should be allowed read access on the log directory by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# grep accounts-daemon /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp
