Where is C:\nppdf32Log\debuglog.txt located? Have you tried to run restorecon on it?
As far as I can tell there is no C:\nppdf32Log\debuglog.txt which may be part of the problem. Never tried restorecon, does anything needed to be added to it?
It looks like you have some kind of wacky plugin which is attempting to download some Windows file into your homedir. Probably not something you want. Any idea what nppdf32log is? We are not allowing mozilla_plugin_t to create arbitrary data in your homedir, which is what this is trying to do.
Disabled all plugins, alert still happened Removed nspluginwrapper.i686 and alerts stopped. Installed nspluginwrapper.x86_64, no more alerts yet with all plugins enabled. Thanks for the help. Richard
Ok if it happens again, reopen the bug. Whatever was happening SELinux was blocking and that very well good have been a good thing.
I'm seeing this as well, and it's adobe's acrobat reader browser plugin that causes this to happen. it also requires nspluginwrapper.i686
Probably need to open a bug with Adobe, to tell that Fedora does not have a directory,C:\nppdf32Log\
