SELinux detecting suspicious behavior on my system

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi All;

I've seen several of the below SELinux messages recently, I do have root 
logins disables in my  /etc/ssh/sshd_config file:

<snip>
PermitRootLogin no
</snip>



Any thoughts on this? Is it cause for concern?




======================================================
SELinux message:
======================================================

Summary:

SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/polkit-1/polkitd "search" access on
/root/.config.

Detailed Description:

[SELinux is in permissive mode. This access was not denied.]

SELinux denied access requested by polkitd. It is not expected that this 
access
is required by polkitd 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://docs.fedoraproject.org/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Please file a bug
report.
