Description Damien Spaulding 2010-08-10 17:34:22 UTC
Summary:

Your system may be seriously compromised!
/home/antifreeze/Desktop/EmeraldViewer-i686-1.4.0.2439/bin/snowglobe-do-not-run-directly
attempted to mmap low kernel memory.

Detailed Description:

SELinux has denied the snowglobe-do-no the ability to mmap low area of the
kernel address space. The ability to mmap a low area of the address space, as
configured by /proc/sys/kernel/mmap_min_addr. Preventing such mappings helps
protect against exploiting null deref bugs in the kernel. All applications that
need this access should have already had policy written for them. If a
compromised application tries modify the kernel this AVC would be generated.
This is a serious issue. Your system may very well be compromised.

Allowing Access:

Contact your security administrator and report this issue.

The alert says it all. It is up to you whether you trust snowglobe-do-not-run-directly. This is a very dangerous access.
