Description of problem: Observe https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2521586#c0. SELinux is preventing conmon from 'watch' accesses on the file /sys/fs/cgroup/system.slice/boinc-client.service/memory.events. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that conmon should be allowed watch access on the memory.events 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 'conmon' --raw | audit2allow -M my-conmon # semodule -X 300 -i my-conmon.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:boinc_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:cgroup_t:s0 Target Objects /sys/fs/cgroup/system.slice/boinc- client.service/memory.events [ file ] Source conmon Source Path conmon Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages SELinux Policy RPM selinux-policy-targeted-44.6-1.fc44.noarch Local Policy RPM selinux-policy-targeted-44.6-1.fc44.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Permissive Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 7.1.9-200.fc44.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Wed Aug 19 17:41:40 UTC 2026 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen 2026-08-23 13:56:29 BST Last Seen 2026-08-23 13:56:29 BST Local ID 10116208-8d19-43c2-b893-304879354d6d Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1787489789.55:720): avc: denied { watch } for pid=29511 comm="conmon" path="/sys/fs/cgroup/system.slice/boinc-client.service/memory.events" dev="cgroup2" ino=30238 scontext=system_u:system_r:boinc_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:cgroup_t:s0 tclass=file permissive=1 Hash: conmon,boinc_t,cgroup_t,file,watch Version-Release number of selected component: selinux-policy-targeted-44.6-1.fc44.noarch Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.17.15 reason: SELinux is preventing conmon from 'watch' accesses on the file /sys/fs/cgroup/system.slice/boinc-client.service/memory.events. package: selinux-policy-targeted-44.6-1.fc44.noarch component: selinux-policy hashmarkername: setroubleshoot type: libreport kernel: 7.1.9-200.fc44.x86_64 event_log: 2026-08-23-13:58:18> Looking for similar problems in bugzilla comment: Observe https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2521586#c0. component: selinux-policy
