:SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/gstreamer-0.10/gst-plugin-scanner from 'execmod' accesses on the file /usr/lib64/libzvbi.so.0.13.1.
:
:*****  Plugin restorecon (99.5 confidence) suggests  *************************
:
:If you want to fix the label. 
:/usr/lib64/libzvbi.so.0.13.1 default label should be textrel_shlib_t.
:Then you can run restorecon.
:Do
:# /sbin/restorecon -v /usr/lib64/libzvbi.so.0.13.1
:
:*****  Plugin catchall (1.49 confidence) suggests  ***************************
:
:If you believe that gst-plugin-scanner should be allowed execmod access on the libzvbi.so.0.13.1 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 gst-plugin-scan /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
:# semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 1 Miroslav Grepl 2012-07-01 11:24:24 UTC
Do:

# /sbin/restorecon -v /usr/lib64/libzvbi.so.0.13.1

Comment 2 Yann Droneaud 2012-10-02 15:50:06 UTC
From a user point of view, having to run the command is not so great.

From my point of view, before asking me to enable a plugin to run code, you should explain why it is needed. And if needed why it wasn't already enabled ? is it a bug in the security policy, a bug in the zvbi package ?.

Comment 3 Daniel Walsh 2012-10-09 18:17:33 UTC
This is happening because /usr/lib64/libzvbi.so.0.13.1 was built without the PIC flag, I guess we can reopen this bug with them, but I am not sure how the file installed with the incorrect label.

Comment 4 Yann Droneaud 2012-10-11 09:37:04 UTC
Thanks for the clarification. I've also found explanations in bug #831595

Does a bug against libzvbi might be opened to ask for a rebuilt with PIC flag instead of using a modified SELinux policy ?
