My Lenovo P1 gen2 laptop is showing selinux alert every time I'm plugging or unplugging the power supply. I'm currently on Fedora 41 KDE Spin $ uname -r 6.11.5-300.fc41.x86_64 $ rpm -qa | grep power power-profiles-daemon-0.23-1.fc41.x86_64 upower-libs-1.90.6-3.fc41.x86_64 upower-1.90.6-3.fc41.x86_64 powerdevil-6.2.2-1.fc41.x86_64 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Plugin power cable or unplug power cable Actual Results: SELinux is preventing power-profiles- from write access on the file energy_performance_preference. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that power-profiles- should be allowed write access on the energy_performance_preference 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 'power-profiles-' --raw | audit2allow -M my-powerprofiles # semodule -X 300 -i my-powerprofiles.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:powerprofiles_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:sysfs_t:s0 Target Objects energy_performance_preference [ file ] Source power-profiles- Source Path power-profiles- Port <Unknown> Host <redacted> Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages SELinux Policy RPM selinux-policy-targeted-41.23-1.fc41.noarch Local Policy RPM selinux-policy-targeted-41.23-1.fc41.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name <redacted> Platform Linux <redacted> 6.11.5-300.fc41.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Tue Oct 22 20:11:15 UTC 2024 x86_64 Alert Count 27 First Seen 2024-10-17 12:49:22 CEST Last Seen 2024-10-26 15:23:07 CEST Local ID bbf2ddd2-5f96-4b2c-bf74-0b2aaff45178 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1729948987.109:402): avc: denied { write } for pid=1816 comm="power-profiles-" name="energy_performance_preference" dev="sysfs" ino=22728 scontext=system_u:system_r:powerprofiles_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:sysfs_t:s0 tclass=file permissive=1 Hash: power-profiles-,powerprofiles_t,sysfs_t,file,write Expected Results: No SElinux alert should be observed `power-profiles-` (with a dash at the end) looks a little suspicious, maybe a typo in policy or in a power-related packages (upower, powerdevil..?), I'm not sure what provides said capabilities.

AVCs frequently have incomplete or truncated filesystem names. The "locate" command can sometimes help find the full name: $ sudo systemctl start plocate-updatedb.service $ locate power-profiles- /usr/lib/systemd/system/power-profiles-daemon.service /usr/libexec/power-profiles-daemon /usr/share/doc/power-profiles-daemon /usr/share/doc/power-profiles-daemon/README.md /usr/share/licenses/power-profiles-daemon /usr/share/licenses/power-profiles-daemon/COPYING /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/power-profiles-daemon.policy /var/lib/power-profiles-daemon $ rpm -qf /usr/libexec/power-profiles-daemon power-profiles-daemon-0.23-1.fc41.x86_64
