Summary: SELinux is preventing googleearth-bin from loading /opt/google-earth/libcollada.so which requires text relocation. Detailed Description: The googleearth-bin application attempted to load /opt/google-earth/libcollada.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 /opt/google-earth/libcollada.so to use relocation as a workaround, until the library is fixed. Please file a bug report (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi) against this package. Allowing Access: If you trust /opt/google-earth/libcollada.so to run correctly, you can change the file context to textrel_shlib_t. "chcon -t textrel_shlib_t '/opt/google-earth/libcollada.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 '/opt/google-earth/libcollada.so'" Fix Command: chcon -t textrel_shlib_t '/opt/google-earth/libcollada.so' Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1 023 Target Context unconfined_u:object_r:usr_t:s0 Target Objects /opt/google-earth/libcollada.so [ file ] Source googleearth-bin Source Path /opt/google-earth/googleearth-bin Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.6.12-86.fc11 Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Plugin Name allow_execmod Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 2.6.30.9-96.fc11.i686.PAE #1 SMP Tue Nov 3 23:41:33 EST 2009 i686 i686 Alert Count 2 First Seen Sun 08 Nov 2009 13:19:15 CET Last Seen Sun 08 Nov 2009 13:19:16 CET Local ID 767aaf07-39c9-4ec8-b16e-90d07bc801aa Line Numbers Raw Audit Messages node=(removed) type=AVC msg=audit(1257682756.913:48): avc: denied { execmod } for pid=7129 comm="googleearth-bin" path="/opt/google-earth/libcollada.so" dev=dm-0 ino=525933 scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:usr_t:s0 tclass=file node=(removed) type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1257682756.913:48): arch=40000003 syscall=125 success=no exit=-13 a0=3725000 a1=2f4000 a2=5 a3=bff6f470 items=0 ppid=6036 pid=7129 auid=500 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=pts1 ses=1 comm="googleearth-bin" exe="/opt/google-earth/googleearth-bin" subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash String generated from selinux-policy-3.6.12-86.fc11,allow_execmod,googleearth-bin,unconfined_t,usr_t,file,execmod audit2allow suggests: #============= unconfined_t ============== allow unconfined_t usr_t:file execmod;
