Description of problem: Just installed Chrome. Flash Plugin crashed with SELinux permissions error. SELinux is preventing /opt/google/chrome/chrome from 'write' accesses on the file /home/nstelzer/.config/google-chrome/Default/Pepper Data/Shockwave Flash/WritableRoot/#SharedObjects/V22EQ6D4/macromedia.com/support/flashplayer/sys/settings.sxx. ***** Plugin restorecon (66.7 confidence) suggests ************************* If you want to fix the label. /home/nstelzer/.config/google-chrome/Default/Pepper Data/Shockwave Flash/WritableRoot/#SharedObjects/V22EQ6D4/macromedia.com/support/flashplayer/sys/settings.sxx default label should be config_home_t. Then you can run restorecon. Do # /sbin/restorecon -v /home/nstelzer/.config/google-chrome/Default/Pepper Data/Shockwave Flash/WritableRoot/#SharedObjects/V22EQ6D4/macromedia.com/support/flashplayer/sys/settings.sxx ***** Plugin chrome (33.6 confidence) suggests ***************************** If you want to use the plugin package Then you must turn off SELinux controls on the Chrome plugins. Do # setsebool -P unconfined_chrome_sandbox_transition 0 ***** Plugin catchall (1.16 confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that chrome should be allowed write access on the settings.sxx 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: # grep Chrome_ChildIOT /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:unconfined_r:chrome_sandbox_t:s0-s0:c 0.c1023 Target Context unconfined_u:object_r:home_root_t:s0 Target Objects /home/nstelzer/.config/google- chrome/Default/Pepper Data/Shockwave Flash/Writabl eRoot/#SharedObjects/V22EQ6D4/macromedia.com/suppo rt/flashplayer/sys/settings.sxx [ file ] Source Chrome_ChildIOT Source Path /opt/google/chrome/chrome Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages google-chrome-stable-29.0.1547.65-220622.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.12.1-73.fc19.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.10.10-200.fc19.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Aug 29 19:05:45 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen 2013-09-09 14:48:13 PDT Last Seen 2013-09-09 14:48:13 PDT Local ID a825e288-34a8-4ad4-a25f-0d572bec1996 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1378763293.142:1235): avc: denied { write } for pid=27875 comm="Chrome_ChildIOT" path=2F686F6D652F6E7374656C7A65722F2E636F6E6669672F676F6F676C652D6368726F6D652F44656661756C742F50657070657220446174612F53686F636B7761766520466C6173682F5772697461626C65526F6F742F235368617265644F626A656374732F56323245513644342F6D6163726F6D656469612E636F6D2F737570706F72742F666C617368706C617965722F7379732F73657474696E67732E737878 dev="dm-0" ino=10355560 scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:chrome_sandbox_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:home_root_t:s0 tclass=file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1378763293.142:1235): arch=x86_64 syscall=recvmsg success=yes exit=EPERM a0=12 a1=7ff980ab6310 a2=40 a3=5 items=0 ppid=6 pid=27875 auid=2795 uid=2795 gid=100 euid=2795 suid=2795 fsuid=2795 egid=100 sgid=100 fsgid=100 ses=8 tty=pts1 comm=Chrome_ChildIOT exe=/opt/google/chrome/chrome subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:chrome_sandbox_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: Chrome_ChildIOT,chrome_sandbox_t,home_root_t,file,write Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.1.6 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.10.10-200.fc19.x86_64 type: libreport
