Description of problem: plugged in a Nintendo Switch Pro controller SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/iio-sensor-proxy from using the 'sys_admin' capabilities. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that iio-sensor-proxy should have the sys_admin capability 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 'iio-sensor-prox' --raw | audit2allow -M my-iiosensorprox # semodule -X 300 -i my-iiosensorprox.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:iiosensorproxy_t:s0 Target Context system_u:system_r:iiosensorproxy_t:s0 Target Objects Unknown [ capability ] Source iio-sensor-prox Source Path /usr/libexec/iio-sensor-proxy Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages iio-sensor-proxy-3.5-6.fc42.x86_64 Target RPM Packages SELinux Policy RPM selinux-policy-targeted-41.41-1.fc42.noarch Local Policy RPM selinux-policy-targeted-41.41-1.fc42.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 6.14.9-300.fc42.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Thu May 29 14:27:53 UTC 2025 x86_64 Alert Count 25 First Seen 2025-06-01 13:56:45 EDT Last Seen 2025-06-01 14:00:53 EDT Local ID 7880983c-bc22-494d-8949-62f0310941ef Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1748800853.296:193): avc: denied { sys_admin } for pid=5435 comm="iio-sensor-prox" capability=21 scontext=system_u:system_r:iiosensorproxy_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:iiosensorproxy_t:s0 tclass=capability permissive=0 type=AVC msg=audit(1748800853.296:193): avc: denied { sys_admin } for pid=5435 comm="iio-sensor-prox" capability=21 scontext=system_u:system_r:iiosensorproxy_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:iiosensorproxy_t:s0 tclass=capability permissive=0 type=AVC msg=audit(1748800853.296:193): avc: denied { sys_admin } for pid=5435 comm="iio-sensor-prox" capability=21 scontext=system_u:system_r:iiosensorproxy_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:iiosensorproxy_t:s0 tclass=capability permissive=0 type=AVC msg=audit(1748800853.296:193): avc: denied { sys_admin } for pid=5435 comm="iio-sensor-prox" capability=21 scontext=system_u:system_r:iiosensorproxy_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:iiosensorproxy_t:s0 tclass=capability permissive=0 type=AVC msg=audit(1748800853.296:193): avc: denied { sys_admin } for pid=5435 comm="iio-sensor-prox" capability=21 scontext=system_u:system_r:iiosensorproxy_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:iiosensorproxy_t:s0 tclass=capability permissive=0 type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1748800853.296:193): arch=x86_64 syscall=setsockopt success=yes exit=0 a0=8 a1=1 a2=1a a3=7ffd99978b60 items=0 ppid=1 pid=5435 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm=iio-sensor-prox exe=/usr/libexec/iio-sensor-proxy subj=system_u:system_r:iiosensorproxy_t:s0 key=(null) Hash: iio-sensor-prox,iiosensorproxy_t,iiosensorproxy_t,capability,sys_admin Version-Release number of selected component: selinux-policy-targeted-41.41-1.fc42.noarch Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.17.15 comment: plugged in a Nintendo Switch Pro controller type: libreport hashmarkername: setroubleshoot component: selinux-policy package: selinux-policy-targeted-41.41-1.fc42.noarch reason: SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/iio-sensor-proxy from using the 'sys_admin' capabilities. kernel: 6.14.9-300.fc42.x86_64 component: selinux-policy
