Description of problem: Selinux block pulseaudio accessing autospawn.lock this kills system volume control Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 17 LXDE spin pulseaudio-1.1-9.fc17.x86_64 How reproducible: Play youtube videos using flash player 11.1.102.55 Steps to Reproduce: 1. Play videos one after another 2. Get the selinux alert and lose system volume control 3. Actual results: Selinux alert and lose system volume control Expected results: Plays videos Additional info: SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/pulseaudio from create access on the file autospawn.lock. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that pulseaudio should be allowed create access on the autospawn.lock file 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 autospawn /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:unconfined_r:mozilla_plugin_t:s0-s0:c 0.c1023 Target Context unconfined_u:object_r:user_home_t:s0 Target Objects autospawn.lock [ file ] Source autospawn Source Path /usr/bin/pulseaudio Port <Unknown> Host system Source RPM Packages pulseaudio-1.1-9.fc17.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.10.0-128.fc17.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name tower Platform Linux system 3.4.0-1.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jun 3 06:35:17 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 2 First Seen Sun 10 Jun 2012 02:29:02 PM EDT Last Seen Sun 10 Jun 2012 02:39:02 PM EDT Local ID f6ebade4-6e16-4056-91b7-4c646226cf1e Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1339353542.127:88): avc: denied { create } for pid=1792 comm="autospawn" name="autospawn.lock" scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:mozilla_plugin_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:user_home_t:s0 tclass=file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1339353542.127:88): arch=x86_64 syscall=open success=no exit=EACCES a0=7fc8280009a0 a1=a0142 a2=180 a3=30d644947c items=0 ppid=1695 pid=1792 auid=500 uid=500 gid=500 euid=500 suid=500 fsuid=500 egid=500 sgid=500 fsgid=500 tty=(none) ses=1 comm=autospawn exe=/usr/bin/pulseaudio subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:mozilla_plugin_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: autospawn,mozilla_plugin_t,user_home_t,file,create audit2allowunable to open /sys/fs/selinux/policy: Permission denied audit2allow -Runable to open /sys/fs/selinux/policy: Permission denied
This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 17. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '17'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 17 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 17 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-07-30. Fedora 17 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
