Summary: SELinux is preventing /usr/lib64/chromium-browser/chrome-sandbox access to a leaked /dev/tty1 file descriptor. Detailed Description: [chrome-sandbox has a permissive type (chrome_sandbox_t). This access was not denied.] SELinux denied access requested by the chrome-sandbox command. It looks like this is either a leaked descriptor or chrome-sandbox output was redirected to a file it is not allowed to access. Leaks usually can be ignored since SELinux is just closing the leak and reporting the error. The application does not use the descriptor, so it will run properly. If this is a redirection, you will not get output in the /dev/tty1. You should generate a bugzilla on selinux-policy, and it will get routed to the appropriate package. You can safely ignore this avc. Allowing Access: You can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ (http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:unconfined_r:chrome_sandbox_t:s0-s0:c 0.c1023 Target Context unconfined_u:object_r:user_tty_device_t:s0 Target Objects /dev/tty1 [ chr_file ] Source chrome-sandbox Source Path /usr/lib64/chromium-browser/chrome-sandbox Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages chromium-4.0.227.0-0.1.20091027svn30269.fc12 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.6.32-41.fc12 Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted MLS Enabled True Enforcing Mode Enforcing Plugin Name leaks Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 2.6.31.5-127.fc12.x86_64 #1 SMP Sat Nov 7 21:11:14 EST 2009 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen Sun 15 Nov 2009 09:53:38 PM CST Last Seen Sun 15 Nov 2009 09:53:38 PM CST Local ID 9d42bcb4-f034-46ed-ae6f-b05573d228c6 Line Numbers Raw Audit Messages node=(removed) type=AVC msg=audit(1258293218.419:36328): avc: denied { read write } for pid=8321 comm="chrome-sandbox" path="/dev/tty1" dev=tmpfs ino=2315 scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:chrome_sandbox_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:user_tty_device_t:s0 tclass=chr_file node=(removed) type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1258293218.419:36328): arch=c000003e syscall=59 success=yes exit=0 a0=2d4e7a8 a1=2d4e5f0 a2=2d4eaa0 a3=7fff3eb90c60 items=0 ppid=8257 pid=8321 auid=500 uid=500 gid=500 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=500 sgid=500 fsgid=500 tty=(none) ses=1 comm="chrome-sandbox" exe="/usr/lib64/chromium-browser/chrome-sandbox" subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:chrome_sandbox_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash String generated from selinux-policy-3.6.32-41.fc12,leaks,chrome-sandbox,chrome_sandbox_t,user_tty_device_t,chr_file,read,write audit2allow suggests: #============= chrome_sandbox_t ============== allow chrome_sandbox_t user_tty_device_t:chr_file { read write };
