Description of problem: I opened google chrome and saw this issue. SELinux is preventing /opt/google/chrome/nacl_helper_bootstrap from 'execute' accesses on the chr_file /dev/zero. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that nacl_helper_bootstrap should be allowed execute access on the zero chr_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 nacl_helper_boo /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:unconfined_r:chrome_sandbox_nacl_t:s0 -s0:c0.c1023 Target Context system_u:object_r:zero_device_t:s0 Target Objects /dev/zero [ chr_file ] Source nacl_helper_boo Source Path /opt/google/chrome/nacl_helper_bootstrap Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages google-chrome-stable-24.0.1312.70-181759.i386 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.11.1-76.fc18.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Permissive Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.7.6-201.fc18.i686.PAE #1 SMP Mon Feb 4 16:05:44 UTC 2013 i686 i686 Alert Count 1 First Seen 2013-02-13 23:48:30 IST Last Seen 2013-02-13 23:48:30 IST Local ID 6bea7d83-82d8-4456-9319-89794cd949a3 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1360779510.757:376): avc: denied { execute } for pid=2848 comm="nacl_helper_boo" path="/dev/zero" dev="devtmpfs" ino=22 scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:chrome_sandbox_nacl_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:zero_device_t:s0 tclass=chr_file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1360779510.757:376): arch=i386 syscall=mmap2 success=yes exit=-1218199552 a0=0 a1=2000 a2=7 a3=2 items=0 ppid=1 pid=2848 auid=1000 uid=1000 gid=1000 euid=1000 suid=1000 fsuid=1000 egid=1000 sgid=1000 fsgid=1000 ses=2 tty=(none) comm=nacl_helper_boo exe=/opt/google/chrome/nacl_helper_bootstrap subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:chrome_sandbox_nacl_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: nacl_helper_boo,chrome_sandbox_nacl_t,zero_device_t,chr_file,execute audit2allow #============= chrome_sandbox_nacl_t ============== allow chrome_sandbox_nacl_t zero_device_t:chr_file execute; audit2allow -R #============= chrome_sandbox_nacl_t ============== allow chrome_sandbox_nacl_t zero_device_t:chr_file execute; Additional info: hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.7.6-201.fc18.i686.PAE type: libreport
