Description of problem: SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/totem-video-thumbnailer 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 totem-video-thumbnailer 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 appsrc0:src /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 appsrc0:src Source Path /usr/bin/totem-video-thumbnailer Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages totem-3.6.3-2.fc18.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.11.1-76.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 2 First Seen 2013-02-11 21:21:16 IST Last Seen 2013-02-11 21:21:18 IST Local ID bc5a8365-cf06-400e-9b34-849afa93b925 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1360597878.541:847): avc: denied { dac_override } for pid=18933 comm="aqueue:src" 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(1360597878.541:847): arch=x86_64 syscall=mkdir success=no exit=EACCES a0=7ff1f00011e0 a1=1c0 a2=ffffffffffffff80 a3=7ff1f7ffcf84 items=0 ppid=18862 pid=18933 auid=1000 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=pts0 ses=2 comm=aqueue:src exe=/usr/bin/totem-video-thumbnailer subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:thumb_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: appsrc0:src,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: 3.6.10-4.fc18.x86_64 type: libreport
Could you re-create it with 1. Turn on full auditing # auditctl -w /etc/shadow -p w 2. Try to recreate AVC. Then execute # ausearch -m avc -ts recent
He is running nautilus as root, not a good idea. YOu should not run any GUI apps as root.
