SELinux is preventing /bin/ps from 'getattr' accesses on the directory /proc/<pid>.

*****  Plugin catchall_labels (83.8 confidence) suggests  ********************

If you want to allow ps to have getattr access on the <pid> directory
Then you need to change the label on /proc/<pid>
Do
# semanage fcontext -a -t FILE_TYPE '/proc/<pid>'
where FILE_TYPE is one of the following: sysctl_t, abrt_t, bin_t, lib_t, mnt_t, root_t, tmp_t, usr_t, var_t, device_t, etc_t, httpd_sys_content_t, proc_t, nscd_var_run_t, ksmtuned_t, textrel_shlib_t, rpm_script_tmp_t, var_t, security_t, bin_t, default_t, sosreport_tmp_t, usr_t, var_t, rpm_tmp_t, var_run_t, device_t, devpts_t, locale_t, etc_t, proc_t, sysfs_t, rpm_log_t, var_log_t, ksmtuned_log_t, var_lib_t, ksmtuned_var_run_t, abrt_var_run_t, var_run_t, domain, sysctl_crypto_t, setrans_var_run_t, var_log_t, cgroup_t, root_t, sysfs_t, tmpfs_t. 
Then execute: 
restorecon -v '/proc/<pid>'


*****  Plugin catchall (17.1 confidence) suggests  ***************************

If you believe that ps should be allowed getattr access on the <pid> directory 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 ps /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp
