Summary: SELinux is preventing /usr/lib/nspluginwrapper/npviewer.bin from loading /opt/google/talkplugin/libnpgoogletalk.so which requires text relocation. Detailed Description: The npviewer.bin application attempted to load /opt/google/talkplugin/libnpgoogletalk.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://www.akkadia.org/drepper/selinux-mem.html) web page explains how to remove this requirement. You can configure SELinux temporarily to allow /opt/google/talkplugin/libnpgoogletalk.so to use relocation as a workaround, until the library is fixed. Please file a bug report. Allowing Access: If you trust /opt/google/talkplugin/libnpgoogletalk.so to run correctly, you can change the file context to textrel_shlib_t. "chcon -t textrel_shlib_t '/opt/google/talkplugin/libnpgoogletalk.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/talkplugin/libnpgoogletalk.so'" Fix Command: chcon -t textrel_shlib_t '/opt/google/talkplugin/libnpgoogletalk.so' Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:unconfined_r:nsplugin_t:s0-s0:c0.c102 3 Target Context system_u:object_r:bin_t:s0 Target Objects /opt/google/talkplugin/libnpgoogletalk.so [ file ] Source npviewer.bin Source Path /usr/lib/nspluginwrapper/npviewer.bin Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages nspluginwrapper-1.3.0-14.fc14 Target RPM Packages google-talkplugin-1.5.1.0-1 Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.9.5-10.fc14 Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Plugin Name allow_execmod Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 2.6.35.4-28.fc14.i686.PAE #1 SMP Wed Sep 15 01:57:00 UTC 2010 i686 i686 Alert Count 10 First Seen Mon 11 Oct 2010 03:55:10 PM EEST Last Seen Mon 11 Oct 2010 04:14:15 PM EEST Local ID ae646a34-30d0-44f4-9430-d1385b432b65 Line Numbers Raw Audit Messages node=(removed) type=AVC msg=audit(1286802855.424:47): avc: denied { execmod } for pid=9716 comm="npviewer.bin" path="/opt/google/talkplugin/libnpgoogletalk.so" dev=sda5 ino=261679 scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:nsplugin_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:bin_t:s0 tclass=file node=(removed) type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1286802855.424:47): arch=40000003 syscall=125 success=no exit=-13 a0=c68000 a1=27000 a2=5 a3=bfe3e720 items=0 ppid=3332 pid=9716 auid=500 uid=500 gid=500 euid=500 suid=500 fsuid=500 egid=500 sgid=500 fsgid=500 tty=(none) ses=1 comm="npviewer.bin" exe="/usr/lib/nspluginwrapper/npviewer.bin" subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:nsplugin_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash String generated from allow_execmod,npviewer.bin,nsplugin_t,bin_t,file,execmod audit2allow suggests: #============= nsplugin_t ============== allow nsplugin_t bin_t:file execmod;
