Following is AVC Do I replace '<unknown>' with skype? > Summary: > > SELinux is preventing skype from changing a writable memory segment executable. > > Detailed Description: > > The skype application attempted to change the access protection of memory (e.g., > allocated using malloc). This is a potential security problem. Applications > should not be doing this. Applications are sometimes coded incorrectly and > request this permission. The SELinux Memory Protection Tests > (http://people.redhat.com/drepper/selinux-mem.html) web page explains how to > remove this requirement. If skype does not work and you need it to work, you can > configure SELinux temporarily to allow this access until the application is > fixed. Please file a bug report > (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi) against this package. > > Allowing Access: > > If you trust skype to run correctly, you can change the context of the > executable to execmem_exec_t. "chcon -t execmem_exec_t '<Unknown>'". You must > also change the default file context files on the system in order to preserve > them even on a full relabel.
