Summary: SELinux prevented kde4-config from writing .kde. Detailed Description: SELinux prevented kde4-config from writing .kde. If .kde is a core file, you may want to allow this. If .kde is not a core file, this could signal a intrusion attempt. Allowing Access: Changing the "allow_daemons_dump_core" boolean to true will allow this access: "setsebool -P allow_daemons_dump_core=1." Fix Command: setsebool -P allow_daemons_dump_core=1 Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:xdm_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Context system_u:object_r:root_t:s0 Target Objects .kde [ dir ] Source kde4-config Source Path /usr/bin/kde4-config Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages kdelibs-4.2.3-2.fc11 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.6.12-39.fc11 Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted MLS Enabled True Enforcing Mode Enforcing Plugin Name allow_daemons_dump_core Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 2.6.29.4-167.fc11.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed May 27 17:27:08 EDT 2009 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 0 First Seen Sat 13 Jun 2009 02:41:24 PM EDT Last Seen Sat 13 Jun 2009 02:41:24 PM EDT Local ID 15d8d8fb-9096-4b76-82dd-de870f556fab Line Numbers Raw Audit Messages node=(removed) type=AVC msg=audit(1244918484.440:15396): avc: denied { create } for pid=1919 comm="kde4-config" name=".kde" scontext=system_u:system_r:xdm_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:root_t:s0 tclass=dir node=(removed) type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1244918484.440:15396): arch=c000003e syscall=83 success=no exit=-13 a0=12e9858 a1=1c0 a2=ffffffffffffff88 a3=7fffdf4b7660 items=0 ppid=1918 pid=1919 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm="kde4-config" exe="/usr/bin/kde4-config" subj=system_u:system_r:xdm_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash String generated from selinux-policy-3.6.12-39.fc11,allow_daemons_dump_core,kde4-config,xdm_t,root_t,dir,create audit2allow suggests: #============= xdm_t ============== allow xdm_t root_t:dir create;
