Description jesseb 2010-11-08 18:34:15 UTC
Summary:

SELinux is preventing /bin/bash "create" access .

Detailed Description:

[SELinux is in permissive mode. This access was not denied.]

SELinux denied access requested by bash. It is not expected that this access is
required by bash 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://docs.fedoraproject.org/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Please file a bug
report.

Comment 1 Daniel Walsh 2010-11-08 20:11:58 UTC
Sadly all apps that execute bash as root end up requesting this access.

I would add a dontaudit.
