Description of problem: SELinux is preventing /usr/lib64/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin from 'write' accesses on the sock_file cups.sock. ***** Plugin mozplugger (99.1 confidence) suggests ************************* If you want to use the plugin package Then you must turn off SELinux controls on the Firefox plugins. Do # setsebool -P unconfined_mozilla_plugin_transition 0 ***** Plugin catchall (1.81 confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that soffice.bin should be allowed write access on the cups.sock sock_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 soffice.bin /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:unconfined_r:mozilla_plugin_t:s0-s0:c 0.c1023 Target Context system_u:object_r:cupsd_var_run_t:s0 Target Objects cups.sock [ sock_file ] Source soffice.bin Source Path /usr/lib64/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages libreoffice-core-4.1.1.2-4.fc19.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.12.1-74.3.fc19.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Permissive Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.10.11-200.fc19.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Sep 9 13:03:01 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen 2013-09-17 11:32:33 CST Last Seen 2013-09-17 11:32:33 CST Local ID 23227050-4c33-44ca-942e-ee88c2f72519 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1379388753.651:1340): avc: denied { write } for pid=23876 comm="soffice.bin" name="cups.sock" dev="tmpfs" ino=16501 scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:mozilla_plugin_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:cupsd_var_run_t:s0 tclass=sock_file type=AVC msg=audit(1379388753.651:1340): avc: denied { connectto } for pid=23876 comm="soffice.bin" path="/run/cups/cups.sock" scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:mozilla_plugin_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:system_r:cupsd_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tclass=unix_stream_socket type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1379388753.651:1340): arch=x86_64 syscall=connect success=yes exit=0 a0=46 a1=7f4b9401b188 a2=1a a3=7f4b9a649bf8 items=0 ppid=23832 pid=23876 auid=1000 uid=1000 gid=1000 euid=1000 suid=1000 fsuid=1000 egid=1000 sgid=1000 fsgid=1000 ses=1 tty=(none) comm=soffice.bin exe=/usr/lib64/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:mozilla_plugin_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: soffice.bin,mozilla_plugin_t,cupsd_var_run_t,sock_file,write Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.1.7 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.10.11-200.fc19.x86_64 type: libreport
To fix this problem use # setsebool -P unconfined_mozilla_plugin_transition 0
You could leave the protection enabled by removing the mozplugger package which will run ooffice in separate windows.
