f16 x86_64 :: kwin - execmem

[Adrian Sevcenco]

Hi! i have this situation in which kwin (which is strange as the command
reported is firefox) tries to map a memory region as executable and
writable. The advice is to report to bugzilla ..
before doing this, did someone else encountered this?

Thanks,
Adrian

SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/kwin from execmem access on the None .

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests
***************************

If you believe that kwin should be allowed execmem access on the
<Unknown> by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# grep kwin /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp
