6 gnomeclock_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the gnomeclock
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the gnomeclock processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12 The gnomeclock processes execute with the gnomeclock_t SELinux type.
14 You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps
15 command with the -Z qualifier.
16 For example:
18 ps -eZ | grep gnomeclock_t
20
24 The gnomeclock_t SELinux type can be entered via the gnomeclock_exec_t
25 file type.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the gnomeclock_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29 /usr/libexec/gnome-clock-applet-mechanism
31
33 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
34 system
35 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
37 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
39 gnomeclock policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their gnome‐
40 clock processes in as secure a method as possible.
41 The following process types are defined for gnomeclock:
43 gnomeclock_t
45 Note: semanage permissive -a gnomeclock_t can be used to make the
47 process type gnomeclock_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
48 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
49 still generated.
50
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. gnome‐
54 clock policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
55 you to manipulate the policy and run gnomeclock with the tightest
56 access possible.
57 If you want to allow all daemons the ability to read/write terminals,
61 you must turn on the allow_daemons_use_tty boolean. Disabled by
62 default.
63 setsebool -P allow_daemons_use_tty 1
65 If you want to allow all domains to use other domains file descriptors,
69 you must turn on the allow_domain_fd_use boolean. Enabled by default.
70 setsebool -P allow_domain_fd_use 1
72 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
76 must turn on the allow_kerberos boolean. Enabled by default.
77 setsebool -P allow_kerberos 1
79 If you want to allow sysadm to debug or ptrace all processes, you must
83 turn on the allow_ptrace boolean. Disabled by default.
84 setsebool -P allow_ptrace 1
86 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
90 allow_ypbind boolean. Disabled by default.
91 setsebool -P allow_ypbind 1
93 If you want to allow all domains to have the kernel load modules, you
97 must turn on the domain_kernel_load_modules boolean. Disabled by
98 default.
99 setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1
101 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
105 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
106 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
108 If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn
112 on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default.
113 setsebool -P global_ssp 1
115 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
119 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Enabled by default.
120 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
122
126 The SELinux process type gnomeclock_t can manage files labeled with the
127 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
128 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
129 initrc_tmp_t
131 locale_t
134 /usr/lib/locale(/.*)?
136 /usr/share/locale(/.*)?
137 /usr/share/zoneinfo(/.*)?

172 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
173 type.
174 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
176 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
178 SELinux gnomeclock policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
179 their gnomeclock processes in as secure a method as possible.
180 The following file types are defined for gnomeclock:
182 gnomeclock_exec_t
186 - Set files with the gnomeclock_exec_t type, if you want to transition
188 an executable to the gnomeclock_t domain.
189 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
193 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
194 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
195 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
196
199 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
200 mappings.
201 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
203 process type is permissive.
204 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
206 icy modules.
207 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
209 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
212 icy settings.
