Summary: SELinux is preventing /usr/lib/thunderbird-3.0b4/thunderbird-bin from loading /home/(removed)/.thunderbird/q6va9077.default/extensions/{340c2bbc-ce74-4362-90b5-7c26312808ef}/platform/Linux_x86-gcc3/components/WeaveCrypto.so which requires text relocation. Detailed Description: The thunderbird-bin application attempted to load /home/(removed)/.thunderbird/q6va9077.default/extensions/{340c2bbc-ce74-4362-90b5-7c26312808ef}/platform/Linux_x86-gcc3/components/WeaveCrypto.so which requires text relocation. This is a potential security problem. Most libraries do not need this permission. Libraries are sometimes coded incorrectly and request this permission. The SELinux Memory Protection Tests (http://people.redhat.com/drepper/selinux-mem.html) web page explains how to remove this requirement. You can configure SELinux temporarily to allow /home/(removed)/.thunderbird/q6va9077.default/extensions/{340c2bbc-ce74-4362-90b5-7c26312808ef}/platform/Linux_x86-gcc3/components/WeaveCrypto.so to use relocation as a workaround, until the library is fixed. Please file a bug report. Allowing Access: If you trust /home/(removed)/.thunderbird/q6va9077.default/extensions/{340c2bbc-ce74-4362-90b5-7c26312808ef}/platform/Linux_x86-gcc3/components/WeaveCrypto.so to run correctly, you can change the file context to textrel_shlib_t. "chcon -t textrel_shlib_t '/home/(removed)/.thunderbird/q6va9077.default/extensions/{340c2bbc-ce74-4362-90b5-7c26312808ef}/platform/Linux_x86-gcc3/components/WeaveCrypto.so'" You must also change the default file context files on the system in order to preserve them even on a full relabel. "semanage fcontext -a -t textrel_shlib_t '/home/(removed)/.thunderbird/q6va9077.default/extensions/{340c2bbc-ce74-4362-90b5-7c26312808ef}/platform/Linux_x86-gcc3/components/WeaveCrypto.so'" Fix Command: chcon -t textrel_shlib_t '/home/(removed)/.thunderbird/q6va9077.default/extensions/{340c2bbc-ce74-4362-90b5-7c26312808ef}/platform/Linux_x86-gcc3/components/WeaveCrypto.so' Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1 023 Target Context unconfined_u:object_r:mozilla_home_t:s0 Target Objects /home/(removed)/.thunderbird/q6va9077.default/extensi ons/{340c2bbc-ce74-4362-90b5-7c26312808ef}/platfor m/Linux_x86-gcc3/components/WeaveCrypto.so [ file ] Source thunderbird-bin Source Path /usr/lib/thunderbird-3.0b4/thunderbird-bin Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages thunderbird-3.0-3.9.b4.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 allow_execmod Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 2.6.31.5-127.fc12.i686 #1 SMP Sat Nov 7 21:41:45 EST 2009 i686 i686 Alert Count 1 First Seen Wed 18 Nov 2009 03:22:51 PM EST Last Seen Wed 18 Nov 2009 03:22:51 PM EST Local ID 54ba08e0-7c21-4b31-b047-9756a4d90471 Line Numbers Raw Audit Messages node=(removed) type=AVC msg=audit(1258575771.792:37476): avc: denied { execmod } for pid=5406 comm="thunderbird-bin" path="/home/(removed)/.thunderbird/q6va9077.default/extensions/{340c2bbc-ce74-4362-90b5-7c26312808ef}/platform/Linux_x86-gcc3/components/WeaveCrypto.so" dev=sda5 ino=157975 scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:mozilla_home_t:s0 tclass=file node=(removed) type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1258575771.792:37476): arch=40000003 syscall=125 success=no exit=-13 a0=1b40000 a1=8000 a2=5 a3=bfb029c0 items=0 ppid=5402 pid=5406 auid=500 uid=500 gid=500 euid=500 suid=500 fsuid=500 egid=500 sgid=500 fsgid=500 tty=(none) ses=1 comm="thunderbird-bin" exe="/usr/lib/thunderbird-3.0b4/thunderbird-bin" subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash String generated from selinux-policy-3.6.32-41.fc12,allow_execmod,thunderbird-bin,unconfined_t,mozilla_home_t,file,execmod audit2allow suggests: #============= unconfined_t ============== allow unconfined_t mozilla_home_t:file execmod;
