Strange output on the command line (audit: avc: denied)

Hello,

I have an Foswiki 1.0.5 on a CentOs 4.7 VM and get when I access my Foswiki using the Webinterface and login as the internal admin some strange output on the command line.

But I don't have any entries in any logs. And I don't have find bugs at the moment.

At my older Foswiki 1.0.4 on a CentOs 4.7 VM there wasn't anything like that.

Here are some examples of the output.

audit(1241693049.091:2): avc: denied { read } for pid=4332 comm="view" name="NatEditPlugin.pm" dev=dm-0 ino=691391 scontext=root:system_r:httpd_sys_script_t tcontext=root:object_r:tmp_t tclass=file
audit(1241693049.102:3): avc: denied { ioctl } for pid=4332 comm="view" name="NatEditPlugin.pm" dev=dm-0 ino=691391 scontext=root:system_r:httpd_sys_script_t Tcontext=root:object_r:tmp_t tclass=file
audit(1241693056.234:4): avc: denied { getattr } for pid=4331 comm="httpd" name="style.css" dev=dm-0 ino=691411 scontext=root:system_r:httpd_t tcontext=root:object_r:tmp_t tclass=file
audit(1241693056.235:5): avc: denied { read } for pid=4331 comm="httpd" name="style.css" dev=dm-0 ino=691411 scontext=root:system_r:httpd_t tcontext=root:object_r:tmp_t tclass=filecd /

audit(1241693531.232:6): avc: denied { getattr } for pid=4333 comm="view" name="NatEditPlugin.txt" dev=dm-0 ino=691386 scontext=root:system_r:httpd_sys_script_t tcontext=root:object_r:tmp_t tclass=file

 

And i will attach some graphical screenshots of these.(Because perhaps, i could misstyped, because I don't know how I can copy and paste between my VM and my PC...)

Many Thanks

At the moment I accessed the configure-webinterface I got another output.

I'v attached it after the three other examples.

Now i have disabled the NatSkinPlugin and the NatEditPlugin in the configure-webinterface and restarted the vm.

Accessing the WebHome, there wasn't any output, but accessing the configure I get again such output.

I guess, you are running SELinux on your machine and set some restrictions. I never touched a SELinux, but from the all-knowing Trash Heap I got the following suggestion:

Edit /etc/selinux/config and change:

SELINUX=enforcing

to:
SELINUX=permissive

or:
SELINUX=disabled

This will most probably relax your access restrictions, but may compromise your system aswell.

Yes, I have installed SELinux, but I forgot it (stupid thing I know). I also got this messages only on the VM with the permessive configuration and I disabled it.

Many thanks
