I am not familiar with matlab but are you sure the AVC denial is related to matlab? Why would matlab run in the httpd generic system script domain?(what runs it)

Eitherway httpd_sys_script_t was never allowed execmem. However if you run matlab as in unconfined domain (instead of the confined httpd_sys_script_t domain), then execmem may or may not be allowed depending on the allow_execmem boolean and or the matlab executable file type.
