:SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/automount from 'read' accesses on the file overcommit_memory.
:
:*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests  ***************************
:
:If you believe that automount should be allowed read access on the overcommit_memory 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 automount /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
:# semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2013-04-03 20:27:40 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle.
Changing version to '19'.

(As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development
cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.)
