Hi, I'm getting the below message on my Fedora Cinnamon Desktop: SELinux is preventing blocking-2 from write access on the sock_file org.gnome.DisplayManager. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that blocking-2 should be allowed write access on the org.gnome.DisplayManager 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 'blocking-2' --raw | audit2allow -M my-blocking2 semodule -X 300 -i my-blocking2.pp Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:unconfined_r:thumb_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Context system_u:object_r:xdm_var_run_t:s0 Target Objects org.gnome.DisplayManager [ sock_file ] Source blocking-2 Source Path blocking-2 Port <Unknown> Host fedora Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages SELinux Policy RPM selinux-policy-targeted-42.15-1.fc43.noarch Local Policy RPM selinux-policy-targeted-42.15-1.fc43.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name fedora Platform Linux fedora 6.17.7-300.fc43.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Sun Nov 2 15:30:09 UTC 2025 x86_64 Alert Count 61 First Seen 2025-11-10 05:25:24 IST Last Seen 2025-11-15 23:57:17 IST Local ID e01d29ba-c0e2-43f3-8aa1-1fc029f0200c Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1763231237.706:312): avc: denied { write } for pid=15876 comm="blocking-2" name="org.gnome.DisplayManager" dev="tmpfs" ino=4312 scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:thumb_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:xdm_var_run_t:s0 tclass=sock_file permissive=0 Hash: blocking-2,thumb_t,xdm_var_run_t,sock_file,write Reproducible: Always Additional Information: cinnamon desktop
