Running latest rawhide, targeted/enforcing.
Are there any issues allowing transition from 'unconfined_execmem_t'
to 'unconfined_t'?
/usr/bin/valgrind is 'unconfined_execmem_exec_t', so running
'valgrind system-config-users' or
'PYTHONPATH=/usr/share/system-config-users valgrind /usr/bin/python
/usr/share/system-config-users/system-config-users.py'
produces:
Summary
SELinux is preventing userhelper (unconfined_execmem_t) "transition" to
/usr/share/system-config-users/system-config-users (unconfined_t).
Detailed Description
SELinux denied access requested by userhelper. It is not expected that this
access is required by userhelper and this access may signal an intrusion
attempt. It is also possible that the specific version or configuration of
the application is causing it to require additional access.
Allowing Access
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see
http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385 Or you can disable
SELinux protection altogether. Disabling SELinux protection is not
recommended. Please file a http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi
against this package.
