Description of problem: Running Windows 11 Professional via KVM in Virtual Machine Manager. I had the PlayStation Accessories app pulled up and plugged in a Galactic Purple DualSense controller via USB to check for firmware updates. I ran the suggested "sudo auditctl -w /etc/shadow -p w" and recreated the same steps, then ran "sudo ausearch -m avc -ts recent" and did not see any path errors. So I ran "sudo ausearch -c 'udev-event' --raw | audit2allow -M my-udevevent" and "sudo semodule -X 300 -i my-udevevent.pp" and am submitting this bug report as suggested by SELinux Troubleshooter. SELinux is preventing udev-event from using the 'dac_read_search' capabilities. ***** Plugin dac_override (91.4 confidence) suggests ********************** If you want to help identify if domain needs this access or you have a file with the wrong permissions on your system Then turn on full auditing to get path information about the offending file and generate the error again. Do Turn on full auditing # auditctl -w /etc/shadow -p w Try to recreate AVC. Then execute # ausearch -m avc -ts recent If you see PATH record check ownership/permissions on file, and fix it, otherwise report as a bugzilla. ***** Plugin catchall (9.59 confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that udev-event should have the dac_read_search 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 'udev-event' --raw | audit2allow -M my-udevevent # semodule -X 300 -i my-udevevent.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:virtnodedevd_t:s0 Target Context system_u:system_r:virtnodedevd_t:s0 Target Objects Unknown [ capability ] Source udev-event Source Path udev-event Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages SELinux Policy RPM selinux-policy-targeted-42.24-1.fc43.noarch Local Policy RPM selinux-policy-targeted-42.24-1.fc43.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Permissive Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 6.18.13-200.fc43.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Thu Feb 19 19:54:01 UTC 2026 x86_64 Alert Count 47 First Seen 2025-10-28 14:14:59 EDT Last Seen 2026-02-28 14:34:23 EST Local ID c6000f2f-40d0-407d-ac3b-e00fe1870b7b Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1772307263.649:308): avc: denied { dac_read_search } for pid=3551 comm="udev-event" capability=2 scontext=system_u:system_r:virtnodedevd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:virtnodedevd_t:s0 tclass=capability permissive=1 Hash: udev-event,virtnodedevd_t,virtnodedevd_t,capability,dac_read_search Version-Release number of selected component: selinux-policy-targeted-42.24-1.fc43.noarch Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.17.15 reason: SELinux is preventing udev-event from using the 'dac_read_search' capabilities. package: selinux-policy-targeted-42.24-1.fc43.noarch component: selinux-policy hashmarkername: setroubleshoot type: libreport kernel: 6.18.13-200.fc43.x86_64 component: selinux-policy
