SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/ffmpeg from using the 'execstack' accesses on a process. ***** Plugin allow_execstack (53.1 confidence) suggests ******************** If you do not think /usr/bin/ffmpeg should need to map stack memory that is both writable and executable. Then you need to report a bug. This is a potentially dangerous access. Do contact your security administrator and report this issue. ***** Plugin catchall_boolean (42.6 confidence) suggests ******************* If you want to allow unconfined executables to make their stack executable. This should never, ever be necessary. Probably indicates a badly coded executable, but could indicate an attack. This executable should be reported in bugzilla Then you must tell SELinux about this by enabling the 'allow_execstack' boolean. Do setsebool -P allow_execstack 1 ***** Plugin catchall (5.76 confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that ffmpeg should be allowed execstack access on processes labeled unconfined_t by default. Then you should report this as a bug. You can generate a local policy module to allow this access. Do allow this access for now by executing: # grep /usr/bin/ffmpeg /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1 023 Target Context unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1 023 Target Objects Unknown [ process ] Source ffmpeg Source Path /usr/bin/ffmpeg Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages ffmpeg-0.6-4.20100704svn.fc14 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.9.7-18.fc14 Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Permissive Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 2.6.35.9-64.fc14.i686.PAE #1 SMP Fri Dec 3 12:28:00 UTC 2010 i686 i686 Alert Count 3 First Seen Wed 29 Dec 2010 16:06:05 EET Last Seen Wed 29 Dec 2010 16:20:49 EET Local ID c5fe4d12-5ac4-4fb7-b54d-882f65cec269 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1293632449.318:17361): avc: denied { execstack } for pid=23950 comm="ffmpeg" scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tclass=process ffmpeg,unconfined_t,unconfined_t,process,execstack type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1293632449.318:17361): arch=i386 syscall=mprotect success=yes exit=0 a0=bfd47000 a1=1000 a2=1000007 a3=bfd4768c items=0 ppid=23606 pid=23950 auid=1313 uid=1313 gid=1313 euid=1313 suid=1313 fsuid=1313 egid=1313 sgid=1313 fsgid=1313 tty=pts1 ses=2 comm=ffmpeg exe=/usr/bin/ffmpeg subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) ffmpeg,unconfined_t,unconfined_t,process,execstack #============= unconfined_t ============== #!!!!
