Me neither. Looks like that message is either coming from spice or usbredir.
CCing spice list (and changed the subject to make it more clear)
USB Redirection permissions are set by the
/usr/libexec/spice-gtk-x86_64/spice-client-glib-usb-acl-helper SUID
binary. I'm running f29 these days, but after downgrading the spice-gtk
package to spice-gtk-0.35-1.fc28, I haven't been able to reproduce this
issue. What version of the package is being used? And are you sure you
don't have any non-fedora versions of spice-gtk anywhere on your system?
