Summary: SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/python from loading /usr/lib/cedega/gddb_parser32_1013.so which requires text relocation. Detailed Description: The python application attempted to load /usr/lib/cedega/gddb_parser32_1013.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 /usr/lib/cedega/gddb_parser32_1013.so to use relocation as a workaround, until the library is fixed. Please file a bug report. Allowing Access: If you trust /usr/lib/cedega/gddb_parser32_1013.so to run correctly, you can change the file context to textrel_shlib_t. "chcon -t textrel_shlib_t '/usr/lib/cedega/gddb_parser32_1013.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 '/usr/lib/cedega/gddb_parser32_1013.so'" Fix Command: chcon -t textrel_shlib_t '/usr/lib/cedega/gddb_parser32_1013.so' Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1 023 Target Context system_u:object_r:lib_t:s0 Target Objects /usr/lib/cedega/gddb_parser32_1013.so [ file ] Source python Source Path /usr/bin/python Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages python-2.6.2-2.fc12 Target RPM Packages cedega-000133-1 Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.6.32-49.fc12 Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Plugin Name allow_execmod Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 2.6.31.6-145.fc12.i686.PAE #1 SMP Sat Nov 21 16:12:37 EST 2009 i686 i686 Alert Count 1 First Seen Sun 29 Nov 2009 06:33:33 PM CST Last Seen Sun 29 Nov 2009 06:33:33 PM CST Local ID 17e8177c-8f19-443d-a7c0-3dfbbe40e5b6 Line Numbers Raw Audit Messages node=(removed) type=AVC msg=audit(1259541213.938:63513): avc: denied { execmod } for pid=12868 comm="python" path="/usr/lib/cedega/gddb_parser32_1013.so" dev=dm-5 ino=194664 scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:lib_t:s0 tclass=file node=(removed) type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1259541213.938:63513): arch=40000003 syscall=125 success=no exit=-13 a0=d2a000 a1=40000 a2=5 a3=bffe28d0 items=0 ppid=12861 pid=12868 auid=500 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=pts0 ses=1 comm="python" exe="/usr/bin/python" subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash String generated from selinux-policy-3.6.32-49.fc12,allow_execmod,python,unconfined_t,lib_t,file,execmod audit2allow suggests: #============= unconfined_t ============== allow unconfined_t lib_t:file execmod;
Release note added. If any revisions are required, please set the "requires_release_notes" flag to "?" and edit the "Release Notes" field accordingly. All revisions will be proofread by the Engineering Content Services team. New Contents: This seems to be a problem caused by Cedega and Python. I was unable to determine if the cause is due to Cedega's use of Python of if Python is broken.
Do the suggested chcon command. I will fix the label. Fixed in selinux-policy-3.6.32-52.fc12.noarch
