+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1329802 +++

Description of problem:
SELinux is preventing gst-plugin-scan from using the 'execstack' accesses on a process.

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests   **************************

If sie denken, dass es gst-plugin-scan standardmäßig erlaubt sein sollte, execstack Zugriff auf thumb_t Prozesse zu erhalten.
Then sie sollten dies als Fehler melden.
Um diesen Zugriff zu erlauben, können Sie ein lokales Richtlinien-Modul erstellen.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# ausearch -c gst-plugin-scan --raw | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

Hi, 

Do you know, whats going on here? 

From security point of view, make stack executable is not good idea.
If you don't see any issue with thumb and you just hit this SELinux msgs, I suggest to close this bug as WONTFIX.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 23 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 23. 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bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '23'.

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 23 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 23 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-12-20. Fedora 23 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no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further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.

This is not something that we should fix, you don't want you thumb executables doing execstack. Most likely nothing that you noticed broke.
