Description Piotr Kolaczek 2009-12-12 22:40:06 UTC
Summary:

SELinux is preventing 0logwatch (logwatch_t) "getattr" var_spool_t.

Detailed Description:

SELinux denied access requested by 0logwatch. It is not expected that this
access is required by 0logwatch 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:

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.
