Where is libxpcom_core located and how is it labeled? It should be labeled textrel_shlib_t ls -lZ /usr/lib/firefox-1.5.0.3/libxpcom_core.so -rwxr-xr-x root root system_u:object_r:textrel_shlib_t /usr/lib/firefox-1.5.0.3/libxpcom_core.so If not execute restorecon -R -v /usr/lib/firefoxo-1.5.0.3 You should update to the latest policy. |
Description of problem: SElinux preventing firefox from starting when in enforcing mode Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libselinux-1.30-1.fc5 selinux-policy-2.2.36-2.fc5 firefox-1.5.0.3-1.1.fc5 How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1.Enable selinux (enforcing) 2.Try and start firefox 3. Actual results: Firefox doesn't start. Expected results: Firefox starts Additional info: I should add that I saw this at the first attempt to run version 1.5.0.3 of firefox - the first time you run a new version of firefox it does some stuff where it looks for updates to extensions (even though I have non installed beyond the language packs which are shipped with the firefox rpm) - I am not sure if that is relevant. Anyway, the avcs: audit(1147606064.249:27): avc: denied { execmod } for pid=4194 comm="firefox-bin" name="libxpcom_core.so" dev=hda2 ino=2737592 scontext=user_u:system_r:initrc_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:file_t:s0 tclass=file audit(1147606086.379:28): avc: denied { execmod } for pid=4221 comm="firefox-bin" name="libxpcom_core.so" dev=hda2 ino=2737592 scontext=user_u:system_r:initrc_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:file_t:s0 tclass=file audit(1147606107.068:29): avc: denied { execmod } for pid=4236 comm="firefox-bin" name="libxpcom_core.so" dev=hda2 ino=2737592 scontext=user_u:system_r:initrc_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:file_t:s0 tclass=file audit(1147606115.764:30): avc: denied { execmod } for pid=4251 comm="firefox-bin" name="libxpcom_core.so" dev=hda2 ino=2737592 scontext=user_u:system_r:initrc_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:file_t:s0 tclass=file
