SELinux advisory

I keep getting the following SELinux alert.
 SELinux is preventing hostname (hostname_t) "read" security_t

The alert data is shown below. I'm not sure what I might have changed to cause this.

Summary:

SELinux is preventing hostname (hostname_t) "read" security_t.

Detailed Description:

SELinux denied access requested by hostname. It is not expected that this access is required by hostname 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 FAQ
(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 bug report (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi)
against this package.
