Description Christian Brauner 2013-02-15 07:39:47 UTC
Description of problem:
SELinux is preventing /usr/lib64/xulrunner/plugin-container from 'getattr' accesses on the file /core.2129.

*****  Plugin restorecon (99.5 confidence) suggests  *************************

If you want to fix the label. 
/core.2129 default label should be etc_runtime_t.
Then you can run restorecon.
Do
# /sbin/restorecon -v /core.2129

*****  Plugin catchall (1.49 confidence) suggests  ***************************

If you believe that plugin-container should be allowed getattr access on the core.2129 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 pool /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 1 Daniel Walsh 2013-02-18 16:17:42 UTC
Did this happen while firefox was crashing?

Comment 2 Christian Brauner 2013-02-18 16:23:24 UTC
Yes, it happened while firefox was crashing.

Comment 3 Daniel Walsh 2013-02-18 16:38:20 UTC
Well probably not something we want to allow.  The /core file was created by the kernel, and we do not want to allow plugins to touch the core file.

Comment 4 Christian Brauner 2013-02-18 16:47:25 UTC
Cheers!

Comment 5 Daniel Walsh 2013-02-18 16:53:42 UTC
