Description of problem: SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/fprintd from 'read' accesses on the file /proc/<pid>/cmdline. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that fprintd should be allowed read access on the cmdline 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 fprintd /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:fprintd_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Context system_u:system_r:xdm_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Objects /proc/<pid>/cmdline [ file ] Source fprintd Source Path /usr/libexec/fprintd Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages fprintd-0.4.1-3.fc18.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.11.1-62.fc18.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.6.10-4.fc18.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Dec 11 18:01:27 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen 2012-12-13 12:26:33 AST Last Seen 2012-12-13 12:26:33 AST Local ID 75e1447c-7f10-4f3f-bcd5-94e5ceac383d Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1355415993.827:396): avc: denied { read } for pid=4511 comm="fprintd" path="/proc/14270/cmdline" dev="proc" ino=57959 scontext=system_u:system_r:fprintd_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:system_r:xdm_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tclass=file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1355415993.827:396): arch=x86_64 syscall=execve success=yes exit=0 a0=2600760 a1=2600650 a2=25ff010 a3=15 items=0 ppid=4510 pid=4511 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm=fprintd exe=/usr/libexec/fprintd subj=system_u:system_r:fprintd_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: fprintd,fprintd_t,xdm_t,file,read audit2allow #============= fprintd_t ============== allow fprintd_t xdm_t:file read; audit2allow -R #============= fprintd_t ============== allow fprintd_t xdm_t:file read; Additional info: hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.6.10-4.fc18.x86_64 type: libreport Potential duplicate: bug 757404
