6 gpg_pinentry_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the
7 gpg_pinentry processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the gpg_pinentry processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12 The gpg_pinentry processes execute with the gpg_pinentry_t SELinux
14 type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing
15 the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16 For example:
18 ps -eZ | grep gpg_pinentry_t
20
24 The gpg_pinentry_t SELinux type can be entered via the pinentry_exec_t
25 file type.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the gpg_pinentry_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29 /usr/bin/pinentry.*
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 gpg_pinentry policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 gpg_pinentry processes in as secure a method as possible.
41 The following process types are defined for gpg_pinentry:
43 gpg_pinentry_t
45 Note: semanage permissive -a gpg_pinentry_t can be used to make the
47 process type gpg_pinentry_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.
54 gpg_pinentry policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run gpg_pinentry with the tight‐
56 est access possible.
57 If you want to allow all domains to use other domains file descriptors,
61 you must turn on the allow_domain_fd_use boolean. Enabled by default.
62 setsebool -P allow_domain_fd_use 1
64 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
68 must turn on the allow_kerberos boolean. Enabled by default.
69 setsebool -P allow_kerberos 1
71 If you want to allow sysadm to debug or ptrace all processes, you must
75 turn on the allow_ptrace boolean. Disabled by default.
76 setsebool -P allow_ptrace 1
78 If you want to allows clients to write to the X server shared memory
82 segments, you must turn on the allow_write_xshm boolean. Disabled by
83 default.
84 setsebool -P allow_write_xshm 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 If you want to support NFS home directories, you must turn on the
126 use_nfs_home_dirs boolean. Disabled by default.
127 setsebool -P use_nfs_home_dirs 1
129 If you want to support SAMBA home directories, you must turn on the
133 use_samba_home_dirs boolean. Disabled by default.
134 setsebool -P use_samba_home_dirs 1
136 If you want to support X userspace object manager, you must turn on the
140 xserver_object_manager boolean. Disabled by default.
141 setsebool -P xserver_object_manager 1

147 The SELinux process type gpg_pinentry_t can manage files labeled with
148 the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for
149 these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC per‐
150 missions.

207 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
208 mappings.
209 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
211 process type is permissive.
212 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
214 icy modules.
215 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
217 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
220 icy settings.
