system.log is bombarded with deny file-read-data /private/etc/passwd

I have this unusual log etry and is being repeated continously.


May 22 10:52:43 mail sandboxd[69963] ([86113]): skindexer(86113) deny file-read-data /private/etc/passwd

May 22 10:52:43 mail sandboxd[69963] ([86113]): skindexer(86113) deny file-read-metadata /private/etc/passwd

May 22 10:52:43 mail sandboxd[69963] ([86113]): skindexer(86113) deny mach-per-user-lookup

May 22 10:52:43: --- last message repeated 1 time ---

May 22 10:52:43 mail sandboxd[69963] ([86113]): skindexer(86113) deny file-read-data /private/etc/passwd

May 22 10:52:43 mail sandboxd[69963] ([86113]): skindexer(86113) deny file-read-metadata /private/etc/passwd

May 22 10:52:43 mail sandboxd[69963] ([86113]): skindexer(86113) deny mach-per-user-lookup (loading metadata importers)


Any suggestion on how to stop this? It has been filling the log with these entries.
