Description of problem: SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/gxine from 'read' accesses on the chr_file kvm. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that gxine should be allowed read access on the kvm 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 pool /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:unconfined_r:mozilla_plugin_t:s0-s0:c 0.c1023 Target Context system_u:object_r:kvm_device_t:s0 Target Objects kvm [ chr_file ] Source pool Source Path /usr/bin/gxine Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages gxine-0.5.907-7.fc17.i686 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.10.0-170.fc17.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.9.8-100.fc17.i686 #1 SMP Thu Jun 27 19:56:32 UTC 2013 i686 i686 Alert Count 2 First Seen 2013-07-02 18:24:49 BST Last Seen 2013-07-02 18:24:49 BST Local ID ba7a64a2-82aa-4752-8ac3-c02285f11cc2 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1372785889.868:147): avc: denied { read } for pid=6924 comm="pool" name="kvm" dev="devtmpfs" ino=10188 scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:mozilla_plugin_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:kvm_device_t:s0 tclass=chr_file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1372785889.868:147): arch=i386 syscall=open success=no exit=EACCES a0=b4610a88 a1=48000 a2=0 a3=0 items=0 ppid=1 pid=6924 auid=1000 uid=1000 gid=1000 euid=1000 suid=1000 fsuid=1000 egid=1000 sgid=1000 fsgid=1000 ses=1 tty=(none) comm=pool exe=/usr/bin/gxine subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:mozilla_plugin_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: pool,mozilla_plugin_t,kvm_device_t,chr_file,read audit2allow #============= mozilla_plugin_t ============== allow mozilla_plugin_t kvm_device_t:chr_file read; audit2allow -R #============= mozilla_plugin_t ============== allow mozilla_plugin_t kvm_device_t:chr_file read; Additional info: hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.9.8-100.fc17.i686 type: libreport

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 It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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.
The needinfo request[s] on this closed bug have been removed as they have been unresolved for 1000 days
