Summary: SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/nscd access to a leaked /tmp/tmpoeo5Ja file descriptor. Detailed Description: [nscd has a permissive type (nscd_t). This access was not denied.] SELinux denied access requested by the nscd command. It looks like this is either a leaked descriptor or nscd 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 /tmp/tmpoeo5Ja. 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://docs.fedoraproject.org/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:nscd_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Context system_u:object_r:initrc_tmp_t:s0 Target Objects /tmp/tmpoeo5Ja [ file ] Source nscd Source Path /usr/sbin/nscd Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages nscd-2.12-2 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.7.19-33.fc13 Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Plugin Name leaks Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 2.6.33.5-124.fc13.i686.PAE #1 SMP Fri Jun 11 09:42:24 UTC 2010 i686 i686 Alert Count 4 First Seen Wed 07 Jul 2010 10:39:46 PM EDT Last Seen Wed 07 Jul 2010 10:39:46 PM EDT Local ID 97a10c22-bea4-46f5-a127-b9f5a706f9ee Line Numbers Raw Audit Messages node=(removed) type=AVC msg=audit(1278556786.249:35): avc: denied { read append } for pid=5410 comm="nscd" path="/tmp/tmpoeo5Ja" dev=dm-0 ino=30469 scontext=system_u:system_r:nscd_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:initrc_tmp_t:s0 tclass=file node=(removed) type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1278556786.249:35): arch=40000003 syscall=11 success=yes exit=0 a0=80598b3 a1=bff8ca30 a2=bff8ca44 a3=bff8cb84 items=0 ppid=5406 pid=5410 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm="nscd" exe="/usr/sbin/nscd" subj=system_u:system_r:nscd_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash String generated from leaks,nscd,nscd_t,initrc_tmp_t,file,read,append audit2allow suggests: #============= nscd_t ============== allow nscd_t initrc_tmp_t:file { read append };
