Description andreasfrische+redhat 2009-09-25 09:45:56 UTC
The following was filed automatically by setroubleshoot:

Summary:

SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/gdb "read" access on
/home/andreas/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so.

Detailed Description:

[gdb has a permissive type (abrt_t). This access was not denied.]

SELinux denied access requested by gdb. It is not expected that this access is
required by gdb and this access may signal an intrusion attempt. It is also
possible that the specific version or configuration of the application is
causing it to require additional access.

Allowing Access:

You can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ
(http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Please file a bug
report.

hello Andreas,
what were you doing when this happened?

Comment 2 andreasfrische+redhat 2009-10-29 16:51:29 UTC
iirc ( tha' s a big if; it' s more than a month)
 firefox had just crashed and abrt was trying to generate a backtrace.
