6 pkcsslotd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the pkcsslotd
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the pkcsslotd processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The pkcsslotd processes execute with the pkcsslotd_t SELinux type. You
14 can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps com‐
15 mand with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep pkcsslotd_t
20
21
22
24 The pkcsslotd_t SELinux type can be entered via the file_type, unla‐
25 beled_t, proc_type, filesystem_type, mtrr_device_t, sysctl_type, pkcss‐
26 lotd_exec_t file types.
27
28 The default entrypoint paths for the pkcsslotd_t domain are the follow‐
29 ing:
30
31 all files on the system, /dev/cpu/mtrr, /usr/sbin/pkcsslotd
32
34 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
35 system
36
37 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
38
39 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
40 pkcsslotd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their pkcss‐
41 lotd processes in as secure a method as possible.
42
43 The following process types are defined for pkcsslotd:
44
45 pkcsslotd_t
46
47 Note: semanage permissive -a pkcsslotd_t can be used to make the
48 process type pkcsslotd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
49 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
50 still generated.
51
52
54 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. pkcss‐
55 lotd policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
56 you to manipulate the policy and run pkcsslotd with the tightest access
57 possible.

89
90 If you want to allow unconfined executables to make their heap memory
91 executable. Doing this is a really bad idea. Probably indicates a
92 badly coded executable, but could indicate an attack. This executable
93 should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the allow_execheap
94 boolean. Disabled by default.
95
96 setsebool -P allow_execheap 1
97
98
99

103 boolean. Enabled by default.
104
105 setsebool -P allow_execmem 1
106

167
168
169
170 If you want to allow certain domains to map low memory in the kernel,
171 you must turn on the mmap_low_allowed boolean. Disabled by default.
172

174
175

194 The SELinux process type pkcsslotd_t can manage files labeled with the
195 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
196 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
197
198 file_type
199
200 all files on the system
201
202
204 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
205 type.
206
207 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
208
209 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
210 SELinux pkcsslotd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
211 pkcsslotd processes in as secure a method as possible.
212
213 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
214
215 SELinux defines the file context types for the pkcsslotd, if you wanted
216 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
217 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
218 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
219
220 semanage fcontext -a -t pkcsslotd_var_run_t '/srv/mypkcsslotd_con‐
221 tent(/.*)?'
222 restorecon -R -v /srv/mypkcsslotd_content
223
224 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
225 match multiple files.
226
227 The following file types are defined for pkcsslotd:
228
229
230
231 pkcsslotd_exec_t
232
233 - Set files with the pkcsslotd_exec_t type, if you want to transition
234 an executable to the pkcsslotd_t domain.
235
236
237
238 pkcsslotd_tmp_t
239
240 - Set files with the pkcsslotd_tmp_t type, if you want to store pkcss‐
241 lotd temporary files in the /tmp directories.
242
243
244
245 pkcsslotd_tmpfs_t
246
247 - Set files with the pkcsslotd_tmpfs_t type, if you want to store pkc‐
248 sslotd files on a tmpfs file system.
249
250
251
252 pkcsslotd_var_lib_t
253
254 - Set files with the pkcsslotd_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the
255 pkcsslotd files under the /var/lib directory.
256
257
258
259 pkcsslotd_var_run_t
260
261 - Set files with the pkcsslotd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
262 pkcsslotd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
263
264
265
266 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
267 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
268 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
269 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
270
271
273 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
274 mappings.
275
276 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
277 process type is permissive.
278
279 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
280 icy modules.
281
282 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
283
284
285 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
286 icy settings.
