Well it is actually a leaked file descriptor in either yum or rpm. restorecon does not look at /var/lib/rpm/__db.000 or the tcp_socket.

All file descriptors in yum/rpm should be closed on exec, to prevent leaks of file descriptors.

Since one of the links is

/var/lib/yum/transaction-done.2008-10-04.19:38.55

I will blame it on yum for now.

fcntl(fd, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) or similar for python.
