Bug 463267

Description of problem:
Getting the following from time to time on a fresh installation as well as a 'yum update'

# sealert -l 7d323053-21fe-498b-b952-0db027210767

Summary:

SELinux is preventing dbus-daemon-lau (system_dbusd_t) "execute_no_trans" to
/lib/dbus-1/dbus-daemon-launch-helper (lib_t).

Detailed Description:

[SELinux is in permissive mode, the operation would have been denied but was
permitted due to permissive mode.]

SELinux denied access requested by dbus-daemon-lau. It is not expected that this
access is required by dbus-daemon-lau and this access may signal an intrusion
attempt. It is also possible that the specific version or configuration of the
application is causing it to require additional access.

Allowing Access:

Sometimes labeling problems can cause SELinux denials. You could try to restore
the default system file context for /lib/dbus-1/dbus-daemon-launch-helper,

restorecon -v '/lib/dbus-1/dbus-daemon-launch-helper'

If this does not work, there is currently no automatic way to allow this access.
Instead, you can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ
(http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Or you can disable
SELinux protection altogether. Disabling SELinux protection is not recommended.
Please file a bug report (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi)
against this package.
