Description of problem: using printer canon mf4150 I encounter always with this allert. SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/gdm-session-worker from 'create' accesses on the file .xsession-errors.XXTKU0YW. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that gdm-session-worker should be allowed create access on the .xsession-errors.XXTKU0YW 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 gdm-session-wor /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:xdm_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Context system_u:object_r:user_home_t:s0 Target Objects .xsession-errors.XXTKU0YW [ file ] Source gdm-session-wor Source Path /usr/libexec/gdm-session-worker Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages gdm-3.4.1-3.fc17.i686 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.10.0-169.fc17.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.8.13-100.fc17.i686.PAE #1 SMP Mon May 13 13:45:03 UTC 2013 i686 i686 Alert Count 1 First Seen 2013-06-22 16:03:42 IRDT Last Seen 2013-06-22 16:03:42 IRDT Local ID 2dc8a180-51f4-4b94-a5d5-41fe5e2ffdca Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1371900822.101:62): avc: denied { create } for pid=1072 comm="gdm-session-wor" name=".xsession-errors.XXTKU0YW" scontext=system_u:system_r:xdm_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:user_home_t:s0 tclass=file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1371900822.101:62): arch=i386 syscall=open success=no exit=EACCES a0=9ee3620 a1=80c2 a2=180 a3=0 items=0 ppid=1061 pid=1072 auid=1000 uid=1000 gid=1000 euid=1000 suid=1000 fsuid=1000 egid=1000 sgid=1000 fsgid=1000 ses=3 tty=(none) comm=gdm-session-wor exe=/usr/libexec/gdm-session-worker subj=system_u:system_r:xdm_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: gdm-session-wor,xdm_t,user_home_t,file,create audit2allow #============= xdm_t ============== allow xdm_t user_home_t:file create; audit2allow -R #============= xdm_t ============== allow xdm_t user_home_t:file create; Additional info: hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.8.13-100.fc17.i686.PAE type: libreport Potential duplicate: bug 673719
This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 17. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '17'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 17 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
