:SELinux is preventing /usr/lib64/firefox/firefox from 'name_connect' accesses on the tcp_socket .
:
:*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests  ***************************
:
:If you believe that firefox should be allowed name_connect access on the  tcp_socket 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 536F636B657420546872656164 /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
:# semodule -i mypol.pp
