Description of problem: Connected a Huawei E220 HSDPA USB modem. SELinux is preventing ModemManager from using the 'execmem' accesses on a process. ***** Plugin allow_execmem (91.4 confidence) suggests ********************* If this issue occurred during normal system operation. Then this alert could be a serious issue and your system could be compromised. Do contact your security administrator and report this issue ***** Plugin catchall (9.59 confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that ModemManager should be allowed execmem access on processes labeled modemmanager_t 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 'ModemManager' --raw | audit2allow -M my-ModemManager # semodule -X 300 -i my-ModemManager.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:modemmanager_t:s0 Target Context system_u:system_r:modemmanager_t:s0 Target Objects Unknown [ process ] Source ModemManager Source Path ModemManager Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages SELinux Policy RPM selinux-policy-targeted-40.15-1.fc40.noarch Local Policy RPM selinux-policy-targeted-40.15-1.fc40.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Permissive Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 6.8.1-300.fc40.aarch64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Wed Mar 20 05:08:46 UTC 2024 aarch64 Alert Count 1 First Seen 2024-03-24 22:35:00 CET Last Seen 2024-03-24 22:35:00 CET Local ID eb53eef0-ed1d-47f1-8759-710b6b187604 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1711316100.747:42098): avc: denied { execmem } for pid=1588 comm="ModemManager" scontext=system_u:system_r:modemmanager_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:modemmanager_t:s0 tclass=process permissive=1 Hash: ModemManager,modemmanager_t,modemmanager_t,process,execmem Version-Release number of selected component: selinux-policy-targeted-40.15-1.fc40.noarch Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.17.15 reason: SELinux is preventing ModemManager from using the 'execmem' accesses on a process. package: selinux-policy-targeted-40.15-1.fc40.noarch component: selinux-policy hashmarkername: setroubleshoot type: libreport kernel: 6.8.1-300.fc40.aarch64 comment: Connected a Huawei E220 HSDPA USB modem. component: selinux-policy
