6 pcscd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the pcscd processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the pcscd processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11
12 The pcscd processes execute with the pcscd_t SELinux type. You can
13 check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command
14 with the -Z qualifier.
15
16 For example:
17
18 ps -eZ | grep pcscd_t
19
20
21
23 The pcscd_t SELinux type can be entered via the pcscd_exec_t file type.
24
25 The default entrypoint paths for the pcscd_t domain are the following:
26
27 /usr/sbin/pcscd
28
30 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
31 system
32
33 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
34
35 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
36 pcscd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their pcscd pro‐
37 cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39 The following process types are defined for pcscd:
40
41 pcscd_t
42
43 Note: semanage permissive -a pcscd_t can be used to make the process
44 type pcscd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
45 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
46 ated.
47
48
50 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. pcscd
51 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52 manipulate the policy and run pcscd with the tightest access possible.

120
121 If you want to enable support for upstart as the init program, you must
122 turn on the init_upstart boolean. Enabled by default.
123
124 setsebool -P init_upstart 1
125
126
127
129 The SELinux process type pcscd_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
130 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
131 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

202 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
203 type.
204
205 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
206
207 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
208 SELinux pcscd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
209 pcscd processes in as secure a method as possible.
210
211 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
212
213 SELinux defines the file context types for the pcscd, if you wanted to
214 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
215 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
216 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
217
218 semanage fcontext -a -t pcscd_var_run_t '/srv/mypcscd_content(/.*)?'
219 restorecon -R -v /srv/mypcscd_content
220
221 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
222 match multiple files.
223
224 The following file types are defined for pcscd:
225
226
227
228 pcscd_exec_t
229
230 - Set files with the pcscd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
231 executable to the pcscd_t domain.
232
233
234
235 pcscd_var_run_t
236
237 - Set files with the pcscd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
238 pcscd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
239
240
241 Paths:
242 /var/run/pcscd.events(/.*)?, /var/run/pcscd.pid,
243 /var/run/pcscd.pub, /var/run/pcscd.comm
244
245
246 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
247 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
248 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
249 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
250
251
253 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
254 mappings.
255
256 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
257 process type is permissive.
258
259 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
260 icy modules.
261
262 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
263
264
265 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
266 icy settings.
