Summary: SELinux is preventing /sbin/consoletype access to a leaked /tmp/tmpcLy5bZ file descriptor. Detailed Description: [SELinux is in permissive mode. This access was not denied.] SELinux denied access requested by the consoletype command. It looks like this is either a leaked descriptor or consoletype 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/tmpcLy5bZ. 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:consoletype_t:s0 Target Context system_u:object_r:initrc_tmp_t:s0 Target Objects /tmp/tmpcLy5bZ [ file ] Source consoletype Source Path /sbin/consoletype Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages initscripts-9.15-1.fc14 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.8.6-1.fc14 Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Permissive Plugin Name leaks Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 2.6.35-0.31.rc4.git4.fc14.i686.PAE #1 SMP Fri Jul 9 01:18:51 UTC 2010 i686 i686 Alert Count 2 First Seen Mon 12 Jul 2010 05:11:05 PM CEST Last Seen Mon 12 Jul 2010 05:11:22 PM CEST Local ID 1f265f5f-f6e4-4fc2-ab71-b2e15cd79ee1 Line Numbers Raw Audit Messages node=(removed) type=AVC msg=audit(1278947482.395:24211): avc: denied { read append } for pid=2112 comm="consoletype" path="/tmp/tmpcLy5bZ" dev=dm-0 ino=1966100 scontext=system_u:system_r:consoletype_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:initrc_tmp_t:s0 tclass=file node=(removed) type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1278947482.395:24211): arch=40000003 syscall=11 success=yes exit=0 a0=9b55488 a1=9b552a8 a2=9b4f978 a3=9b552a8 items=0 ppid=2111 pid=2112 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm="consoletype" exe="/sbin/consoletype" subj=system_u:system_r:consoletype_t:s0 key=(null) Hash String generated from leaks,consoletype,consoletype_t,initrc_tmp_t,file,read,append audit2allow suggests: #============= consoletype_t ============== allow consoletype_t initrc_tmp_t:file { read append };
