NAME

6       devicekit_disk_selinux   -  Security  Enhanced  Linux  Policy  for  the
7       devicekit_disk processes
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the devicekit_disk processes via flexi‐
11       ble mandatory access control.
12
13       The  devicekit_disk processes execute with the devicekit_disk_t SELinux
14       type. You can check if you have these processes  running  by  executing
15       the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17       For example:
18
19       ps -eZ | grep devicekit_disk_t
20

22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The  devicekit_disk_t  SELinux  type  can be entered via the file_type,
25       devicekit_disk_exec_t,   unlabeled_t,    proc_type,    filesystem_type,
26       mtrr_device_t, sysctl_type file types.
27
28       The  default  entrypoint  paths for the devicekit_disk_t domain are the
29       following:
30
31       all    files     on     the     system,     /usr/libexec/udisks-daemon,
32       /usr/libexec/devkit-disks-daemon, /dev/cpu/mtrr
33

PROCESS TYPES

35       SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
36       system
37
38       You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
39
40       Policy governs the access confined processes have  to  files.   SELinux
41       devicekit_disk  policy  is  very flexible allowing users to setup their
42       devicekit_disk processes in as secure a method as possible.
43
44       The following process types are defined for devicekit_disk:
45
46       devicekit_disk_t
47
48       Note: semanage permissive -a devicekit_disk_t can be used to  make  the
49       process  type devicekit_disk_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access
50       to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
51       still generated.
52
53

BOOLEANS

55       SELinux   policy  is  customizable  based  on  least  access  required.
56       devicekit_disk policy is extremely flexible and  has  several  booleans
57       that allow you to manipulate the policy and run devicekit_disk with the
58       tightest access possible.
59
60
61
62       If you want to allow all daemons the ability to  read/write  terminals,
63       you  must  turn  on  the  allow_daemons_use_tty  boolean.  Disabled  by
64       default.
65
66       setsebool -P allow_daemons_use_tty 1

73       setsebool -P allow_domain_fd_use 1
74
75
76
77       If  you  want to allow unconfined executables to make their heap memory
78       executable.  Doing this is a really  bad  idea.  Probably  indicates  a
79       badly  coded  executable, but could indicate an attack. This executable
80       should be reported in bugzilla, you must  turn  on  the  allow_execheap
81       boolean. Disabled by default.
82
83       setsebool -P allow_execheap 1
84
85
86
87       If  you  want to allow unconfined executables to map a memory region as
88       both executable and writable, this  is  dangerous  and  the  executable
89       should  be  reported  in  bugzilla), you must turn on the allow_execmem
90       boolean. Enabled by default.
91
92       setsebool -P allow_execmem 1
93
94
95
96       If you want to  allow  all  unconfined  executables  to  use  libraries
97       requiring  text  relocation  that are not labeled textrel_shlib_t), you
98       must turn on the allow_execmod boolean. Enabled by default.
99
100       setsebool -P allow_execmod 1
101
102
103
104       If you want to allow unconfined executables to make  their  stack  exe‐
105       cutable.   This  should  never, ever be necessary. Probably indicates a
106       badly coded executable, but could indicate an attack.  This  executable
107       should  be  reported in bugzilla), you must turn on the allow_execstack
108       boolean. Enabled by default.
109
110       setsebool -P allow_execstack 1
111
112
113
114       If you want to allow confined applications to run  with  kerberos,  you
115       must turn on the allow_kerberos boolean. Enabled by default.
116
117       setsebool -P allow_kerberos 1
118
119
120
121       If  you want to allow sysadm to debug or ptrace all processes, you must
122       turn on the allow_ptrace boolean. Disabled by default.
123
124       setsebool -P allow_ptrace 1
125
126
127
128       If you want to allow system to run with  NIS,  you  must  turn  on  the

131       setsebool -P allow_ypbind 1
132
133
134
135       If  you  want to allow all domains to have the kernel load modules, you
136       must  turn  on  the  domain_kernel_load_modules  boolean.  Disabled  by
137       default.
138
139       setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1
140
141
142
143       If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
144       on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.

165       you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Enabled by default.
166
167       setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
168
169
170
171       If  you want to boolean to determine whether the system permits loading
172       policy, setting enforcing mode, and changing boolean values.  Set  this
173       to  true  and  you  have to reboot to set it back, you must turn on the
174       secure_mode_policyload boolean. Disabled by default.

MANAGED FILES

202       The SELinux process type devicekit_disk_t can manage files labeled with
203       the following file types.  The paths listed are the default  paths  for
204       these  file  types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC per‐
205       missions.
206
207       file_type
208
209            all files on the system
210
211

FILE CONTEXTS

213       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
214       type.
215
216       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
217
218       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these files.
219       SELinux devicekit_disk policy is very flexible allowing users to  setup
220       their devicekit_disk processes in as secure a method as possible.
221
222       The following file types are defined for devicekit_disk:
223
224
225
226       devicekit_disk_exec_t
227
228       - Set files with the devicekit_disk_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
229       tion an executable to the devicekit_disk_t domain.
230
231
232       Paths:
233            /usr/libexec/udisks-daemon, /usr/libexec/devkit-disks-daemon
234
235
236       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
237       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
238       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
239       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
240
241

COMMANDS

243       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
244       mappings.
245
246       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
247       process type is permissive.
248
249       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
250       icy modules.
251
252       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
253
254
255       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
256       icy settings.
