I'm not sure why and/or if it's normal, but I keep getting popup from my SELinux Alert Browser:

SELinux is preventing /opt/google/chrome-beta/nacl_helper from getattr access on the file /etc/passwd.

I placed details into nacl_helper - Pastebin.com.

$ cat /etc/redhat-release 
CentOS Linux release 7.1.1503 (Core) 
$ uname -a
Linux wcmisdlin02.uftmasterad.org 3.10.0-229.1.2.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Mar 27 03:04:26 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
$ rpm -q google-chrome-beta selinux-policy
google-chrome-beta-43.0.2357.45-1.x86_64

It's a known bug. Seems safe to ignore.
