Description of problem: This happened immediately after starting Firefox when I logged in as staff_t. SELinux is preventing /usr/lib64/firefox/firefox from 'sendto' accesses on the unix_dgram_socket 006E7669646961636434323036373400000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that firefox should be allowed sendto access on the 006E7669646961636434323036373400000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 unix_dgram_socket 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: # ausearch -c 'firefox' --raw | audit2allow -M my-firefox # semodule -X 300 -i my-firefox.pp Additional Information: Source Context staff_u:staff_r:staff_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Context system_u:system_r:xserver_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Objects 006E7669646961636434323036373400000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000 [ unix_dgram_socket ] Source firefox Source Path /usr/lib64/firefox/firefox Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.13.1-191.19.fc24.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 4.8.6-201.fc24.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Nov 3 14:38:57 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 100 First Seen 2016-10-27 15:15:11 PDT Last Seen 2016-11-11 11:11:53 PST Local ID 7ce54358-59c4-4c53-86e3-4f18a52d2fd2 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1478891513.821:211): avc: denied { sendto } for pid=2501 comm="firefox" path=006E7669646961636434323036373400000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 scontext=staff_u:staff_r:staff_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:system_r:xserver_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tclass=unix_dgram_socket permissive=0 Hash: firefox,staff_t,xserver_t,unix_dgram_socket,sendto Version-Release number of selected component: selinux-policy-3.13.1-191.19.fc24.noarch Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.7.2 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 4.8.6-201.fc24.x86_64 type: libreport
This message is a reminder that Fedora 24 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 2 (two) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 24. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '24'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 24 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 24 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-08-08. Fedora 24 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
