Opening Mugshot Stacker

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

 



I have Mugshot 1.1.49 installed in Fedora 7 on my laptop. My preferred
browser is Firefox (current version is 2.0.0.8). Whenever I click on a
link in Mugshot Stacker I get the following SELinux denial message.

**********************************************************************
Summary
SELinux is preventing /usr/lib/firefox-2.0.0.8/firefox-bin from
loading /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/nppdf.so which requires text
relocation.

Detailed Description
The /usr/lib/firefox-2.0.0.8/firefox-bin application attempted to load
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/nppdf.so which requires text relocation. This
is a potential security problem. Most libraries do not need this
permission. Libraries are sometimes coded incorrectly and request this
permission. The http://people.redhat.com/drepper/selinux-mem.html web
page explains how to remove this requirement.  You can configure SELinux
temporarily to allow /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/nppdf.so to use relocation
as a workaround, until the library is fixed. Please file a
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi against this package.

Is this a known bug? I have seen it other versions of Mugshot as well as
Firefox.
