Description of problem: SELinux is preventing /usr/lib64/firefox/plugin-container from 'read' accesses on the file . ***** 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 plugin-container should be allowed read access on the 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 plugin-containe /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 unconfined_u:object_r:admin_home_t:s0 Target Objects [ file ] Source plugin-containe Source Path /usr/lib64/firefox/plugin-container Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages firefox-27.0-1.fc20.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.12.1-122.fc20.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Permissive Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.13.3-201.fc20.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Feb 14 19:08:32 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 2 First Seen 2014-02-20 20:27:57 EST Last Seen 2014-02-20 20:39:47 EST Local ID fc63fba6-6dcd-4e95-afc5-d9bd10440851 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1392946787.535:684): avc: denied { read } for pid=17262 comm="plugin-containe" name="settings.sol" dev="dm-1" ino=537947 scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:mozilla_plugin_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:admin_home_t:s0 tclass=file type=AVC msg=audit(1392946787.535:684): avc: denied { open } for pid=17262 comm="plugin-containe" path="/root/.macromedia/Flash_Player/macromedia.com/support/flashplayer/sys/settings.sol" dev="dm-1" ino=537947 scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:mozilla_plugin_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:admin_home_t:s0 tclass=file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1392946787.535:684): arch=x86_64 syscall=open success=yes exit=EBUSY a0=7f0e61e04408 a1=0 a2=1b6 a3=7f0e5e509400 items=0 ppid=17179 pid=17262 auid=1000 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 ses=27 tty=pts0 comm=plugin-containe exe=/usr/lib64/firefox/plugin-container subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:mozilla_plugin_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: plugin-containe,mozilla_plugin_t,admin_home_t,file,read Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.1.12 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.13.3-201.fc20.x86_64 type: libreport Potential duplicate: bug 802021
