Description William Saffery 2024-06-05 06:47:26 UTC
Description of problem:
I opened a text file with over 2080404 lines in VS Code. The program presumably coredumped, and then this errror was thrown by SELinux. VS Code version was 1.89.1 in case that's relevant to anyone reading (redhat or otherwise).
Running Fedora 40, KDE Spin.
SELinux is preventing systemd-coredum from using the 'sys_admin' capabilities.

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

If you believe that systemd-coredum should have the sys_admin capability 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:
# ausearch -c 'systemd-coredum' --raw | audit2allow -M my-systemdcoredum
# semodule -X 300 -i my-systemdcoredum.pp
