From all the reports I have been getting this appears to be an issue in webkitgtk which is being used to render html. Going to reassign there for the moment. This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 12 development cycle. Changing version to '12'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping This bug has been triaged This looks like a dup of 516057 to me. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 516057 *** |
Description of problem: I'm getting SELinux AVC messages from liferea. This only start in the last few days. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): liferea-1.6.0-0.fc12.x86_64 selinux-policy-targeted-3.6.32-6.fc12.noarch How reproducible: Very frequent. Steps to Reproduce: 1.Start liferea and let it run for a bit. Actual results: setroubleshoot message. Full report: ==> Summary: SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/liferea "execmem" access on <Unknown>. Detailed Description: [SELinux is in permissive mode. This access was not denied.] SELinux denied access requested by liferea. The current boolean settings do not allow this access. If you have not setup liferea to require this access this may signal an intrusion attempt. If you do intend this access you need to change the booleans on this system to allow the access. Allowing Access: One of the following booleans is set incorrectly: allow_execstack, allow_execmem Fix Command: Choose one of the following to allow access: Allow unconfined executables to make their stack executable. This should never, ever be necessary. Probably indicates a badly coded executable, but could indicate an attack. This executable should be reported in bugzilla") # setsebool -P allow_execstack 1 Allow unconfined executables to map a memory region as both executable and writable, this is dangerous and the executable should be reported in bugzilla") # setsebool -P allow_execmem 1 Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1 023 Target Context unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1 023 Target Objects None [ process ] Source liferea Source Path /usr/bin/liferea Port <Unknown> Host worm.elk Source RPM Packages liferea-1.6.0-0.fc12 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.6.32-6.fc12 Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted MLS Enabled True Enforcing Mode Permissive Plugin Name catchall_boolean Host Name worm.elk Platform Linux worm.elk 2.6.31-33.fc12.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Sep 17 15:40:43 EDT 2009 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 2 First Seen Tue 22 Sep 2009 09:23:27 BST Last Seen Tue 22 Sep 2009 10:30:53 BST Local ID 73a45570-46ba-4b94-a9eb-b36c1da143a5 Line Numbers Raw Audit Messages node=worm.elk type=AVC msg=audit(1253611853.653:136): avc: denied { execmem } for pid=3069 comm="liferea" scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tclass=process node=worm.elk type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1253611853.653:136): arch=c000003e syscall=10 success=yes exit=0 a0=7f2ed6084000 a1=1000 a2=5 a3=bb4958246c894ce7 items=0 ppid=1 pid=3069 auid=500 uid=500 gid=500 euid=500 suid=500 fsuid=500 egid=500 sgid=500 fsgid=500 tty=(none) ses=2 comm="liferea" exe="/usr/bin/liferea" subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) <== Expected results: No setroubleshoot message.
