On one of our system we see that the syslog/messages file has been flooded
with the following messages

r 25 18:07:56 nw043b-vcma1 user 3 sedispatch: Connection Error (An SELinux
policy prevents this sender from sending this message to this recipient
(rejected message had sender "(unset)" interface "org.freedesktop.DBus"
member "Hello" error name "(unset)" destination "org.freedesktop.DBus")):
AVC Will be dropped

We are on RHEL6.2 and running in permissive mode.

Here are the version of the selinux related rpms.

root at nw043b-vcma1 vos]# rpm -qa | grep selinux
selinux-policy-3.7.19-126.el6.noarch
libselinux-2.0.94-5.2.el6.i686
libselinux-2.0.94-5.2.el6.x86_64

libselinux-utils-2.0.94-5.2.el6.i686
libselinux-utils-2.0.94-5.2.el6.x86_64
libselinux-python-2.0.94-5.2.el6.x86_64
[root at nw043b-vcma1 vos]# rpm -qa | grep setro
setroubleshoot-server-3.0.38-2.1.el6.x86_64
setroubleshoot-plugins-3.0.16-1.el6.noarch

What could be the root cause of these messages.

Thanks,
