Summary: SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/abrt-pyhook-helper access to a leaked /dev/console file descriptor. Detailed Description: [abrt-pyhook-hel has a permissive type (abrt_helper_t). This access was not denied.] SELinux denied access requested by the abrt-pyhook-hel command. It looks like this is either a leaked descriptor or abrt-pyhook-hel 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/console. 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 system_u:system_r:abrt_helper_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:console_device_t:s0 Target Objects /dev/console [ chr_file ] Source abrt-pyhook-hel Source Path /usr/bin/abrt-pyhook-helper Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages abrt-addon-python-0.0.11-2.fc12 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.6.32-46.fc12 Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted 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 Thu 26 Nov 2009 09:01:37 AM PST Last Seen Thu 26 Nov 2009 09:01:37 AM PST Local ID 2b75a82c-8572-4480-ab65-66ddb7629925 Line Numbers Raw Audit Messages node=(removed) type=AVC msg=audit(1259254897.402:6): avc: denied { read write } for pid=1501 comm="abrt-pyhook-hel" path="/dev/console" dev=tmpfs ino=2076 scontext=system_u:system_r:abrt_helper_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:console_device_t:s0 tclass=chr_file node=(removed) type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1259254897.402:6): arch=c000003e syscall=59 success=yes exit=0 a0=ddaaa0 a1=94af50 a2=7fff30f512e0 a3=20 items=0 ppid=1492 pid=1501 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm="abrt-pyhook-hel" exe="/usr/bin/abrt-pyhook-helper" subj=system_u:system_r:abrt_helper_t:s0 key=(null) Hash String generated from selinux-policy-3.6.32-46.fc12,leaks,abrt-pyhook-hel,abrt_helper_t,console_device_t,chr_file,read,write audit2allow suggests: #============= abrt_helper_t ============== allow abrt_helper_t console_device_t:chr_file { read write };
