SELinux is preventing rsyslogd (syslogd_t) "read" to ./System.map-2.6.25-0.95.rc4.fc9 (system_map_t).

[Antonio Olivares]

Dear all, 

Upon installing the updates of rawhide Report
20080308, I got the following from setroubleshooter.  

Suggestions/Comments are welcome.

Regards,

Summary:

SELinux is preventing rsyslogd (syslogd_t) "read" to
./System.map-2.6.25-0.95.rc4.fc9 (system_map_t).

Detailed Description:

SELinux denied access requested by rsyslogd. It is not
expected that this access
is required by rsyslogd 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:

Sometimes labeling problems can cause SELinux denials.
You could try to restore
the default system file context for
./System.map-2.6.25-0.95.rc4.fc9,

restorecon -v './System.map-2.6.25-0.95.rc4.fc9'

If this does not work, there is currently no automatic
way to allow this access.
Instead, 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.
