FWIW, I'm receiving similar avc messages/errors, as are others:

https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-selinux-list/2005-June/msg00240.html

I tried to ssh to the borked machine to try and fix the problem, but
even that isn't possible (I get an immediate
"ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host"
error).  Thanks for posting the fix, I guess I need to wait until I
can physically access the machine to try it.
