Description of problem:
SELinux is preventing exe-thumbnailer from 'write' accesses on the sock_file abrt.socket.

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

If you believe that exe-thumbnailer should be allowed write access on the abrt.socket sock_file 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 'exe-thumbnailer' --raw | audit2allow -M my-exethumbnailer
# semodule -X 300 -i my-exethumbnailer.pp
