Description Nicolas Mailhot 2009-07-31 18:29:48 UTC
Your system may be seriously compromised!

SELinux has denied the named the ability to mmap low area of the kernel address space. The ability to mmap a low area of the address space, as configured by /proc/sys/kernel/mmap_min_addr. Preventing such mappings helps protect against exploiting null deref bugs in the kernel. All applications that need this access should have already had policy written for them. If a compromised application tries modify the kernel this AVC would be generated. This is a serious issue. Your system may very well be compromised.

Contact your security administrator and report this issue.

Comment 1 Adam Tkac 2009-08-04 14:54:10 UTC
Would it be possible to tell me how did you reproduced this issue, please? I have installed:

bind-9.6.1-6.P1.fc12.x86_64
selinux-policy-targeted-3.6.26-2.fc12.noarch

and I'm running on 2.6.31-0.118.rc5.fc12.x86_64 kernel with no SELinux denial.

Comment 2 Nicolas Mailhot 2009-08-05 07:21:05 UTC
If I can reproduce it I'll post the info. There have been several selinux, bind and glibc updates in rawhide since

Ok, if it happens again please reopen this issue. For not I'm closing this ticket.
