Summary:

Your system may be seriously compromised! /usr/sbin/nscd attempted to mmap low
kernel memory.

Detailed Description:

[nscd has a permissive type (nscd_t). This access was not denied.]

SELinux has denied the nscd 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.

Allowing Access:

Contact your security administrator and report this issue.
