Description Jan Vlug 2018-11-23 09:25:57 UTC
Description of problem:
I think I restarted the (virtual) machine with an Aladding eToken USB dongle inserted.
Actually, I'm not really sure whether this is a bug. I use an Aladdin eToken with their proprietary drivers.

SELinux is preventing gsd-smartcard from 'write' accesses on the sock_file SACSrv.

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

If you believe that gsd-smartcard should be allowed write access on the SACSrv 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:
# ausearch -c 'gsd-smartcard' --raw | audit2allow -M my-gsdsmartcard
# semodule -X 300 -i my-gsdsmartcard.pp

Description of problem:
This happens when I start a Fedora 29 (VM) with a Aladding USB eToken inserted.
I'm running the proprietary SafenetAuthenticationClient software provided by Comodo.

Hi, 

I'm not sure whats going on here, but if you're using 3rd party software, could you please fix this by creating custom SELinux moudule? 

Tutorial how to it, is in your report:
