Description of problem: SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/gstreamer-1.0/gst-plugin-scanner from using the 'dac_override' capabilities. ***** Plugin dac_override (91.4 confidence) suggests *********************** If you want to help identify if domain needs this access or you have a file with the wrong permissions on your system Then turn on full auditing to get path information about the offending file and generate the error again. Do Turn on full auditing # auditctl -w /etc/shadow -p w Try to recreate AVC. Then execute # ausearch -m avc -ts recent If you see PATH record check ownership/permissions on file, and fix it, otherwise report as a bugzilla. ***** Plugin catchall (9.59 confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that gst-plugin-scanner should have the dac_override capability 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 Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:unconfined_r:thumb_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Context unconfined_u:unconfined_r:thumb_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Objects [ capability ] Source gst-plugin-scan Source Path /usr/libexec/gstreamer-1.0/gst-plugin-scanner Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages totem-3.6.3-2.fc18.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.11.1-74.fc18.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Permissive Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.7.6-201.fc18.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Feb 4 15:54:08 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 5 First Seen 2013-02-10 02:08:42 IST Last Seen 2013-02-10 02:27:24 IST Local ID f2c81908-a2bf-4179-895e-c7216d5619e3 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1360443444.219:345): avc: denied { dac_override } for pid=2042 comm="totem-video-thu" capability=1 scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:thumb_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:thumb_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tclass=capability type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1360443444.219:345): arch=x86_64 syscall=access success=yes exit=0 a0=7fff2cacef0f a1=4 a2=8 a3=7fff2cacbe64 items=0 ppid=1993 pid=2042 auid=1000 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 ses=2 tty=pts0 comm=totem-video-thu exe=/usr/bin/totem-video-thumbnailer subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:thumb_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: gst-plugin-scan,thumb_t,thumb_t,capability,dac_override audit2allow #============= thumb_t ============== allow thumb_t self:capability dac_override; audit2allow -R #============= thumb_t ============== allow thumb_t self:capability dac_override; Additional info: hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.7.6-201.fc18.x86_64 type: libreport Potential duplicate: bug 823210
