Description of problem: SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/boinc_client from using the 'signal' accesses on a process. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that boinc_client should be allowed signal access on processes labeled boinc_t 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 boinc_client /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:boinc_t:s0 Target Context system_u:system_r:boinc_t:s0 Target Objects [ process ] Source boinc_client Source Path /usr/bin/boinc_client Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages boinc-client-7.0.29-2.r25790svn.fc18.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.11.1-82.fc18.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.8.1-201.fc18.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Feb 28 19:23:08 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen 2013-03-04 22:24:33 EST Last Seen 2013-03-04 22:24:33 EST Local ID 38eec4b9-14dd-4b80-bf50-e9b7ee589318 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1362453873.633:370): avc: denied { signal } for pid=2630 comm="boinc_client" scontext=system_u:system_r:boinc_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:boinc_t:s0 tclass=process type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1362453873.633:370): arch=x86_64 syscall=tgkill success=no exit=EACCES a0=a46 a1=a46 a2=22 a3=7fff5c73d1a7 items=0 ppid=1 pid=2630 auid=4294967295 uid=991 gid=987 euid=991 suid=991 fsuid=991 egid=987 sgid=987 fsgid=987 ses=4294967295 tty=(none) comm=boinc_client exe=/usr/bin/boinc_client subj=system_u:system_r:boinc_t:s0 key=(null) Hash: boinc_client,boinc_t,boinc_t,process,signal audit2allow #============= boinc_t ============== allow boinc_t self:process signal; audit2allow -R #============= boinc_t ============== allow boinc_t self:process signal; Additional info: hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.8.1-201.fc18.x86_64 type: libreport
