NAME

6       accountsd_selinux  -  Security  Enhanced Linux Policy for the accountsd
7       processes
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the accountsd  processes  via  flexible
11       mandatory access control.
12
13       The  accountsd processes execute with the accountsd_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 accountsd_t
20
21
22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The  accountsd_t  SELinux  type can be entered via the accountsd_exec_t
25       file type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the accountsd_t domain are the follow‐
28       ing:
29
30       /usr/libexec/accounts-daemon, /usr/lib/accountsservice/accounts-daemon
31

PROCESS TYPES

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

BOOLEANS

53       SELinux   policy  is  customizable  based  on  least  access  required.
54       accountsd policy is extremely flexible and has  several  booleans  that
55       allow  you to manipulate the policy and run accountsd with the tightest
56       access possible.

MANAGED FILES

171       The SELinux process type accountsd_t can manage files labeled with  the
172       following file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for these
173       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

FILE CONTEXTS

220       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
221       type.
222
223       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
224
225       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these files.
226       SELinux accountsd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
227       accountsd processes in as secure a method as possible.
228
229       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
230
231       SELinux defines the file context types for the accountsd, if you wanted
232       to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
233       the  semanage  command  to  sepecify  alternate  labeling  and then use
234       restorecon to put the labels on disk.
235
236       semanage  fcontext  -a  -t  accountsd_var_lib_t  '/srv/myaccountsd_con‐
237       tent(/.*)?'
238       restorecon -R -v /srv/myaccountsd_content
239
240       Note:  SELinux  often  uses  regular expressions to specify labels that
241       match multiple files.
242
243       The following file types are defined for accountsd:
244
245
246
247       accountsd_exec_t
248
249       - Set files with the accountsd_exec_t type, if you want  to  transition
250       an executable to the accountsd_t domain.
251
252
253       Paths:
254            /usr/libexec/accounts-daemon,   /usr/lib/accountsservice/accounts-
255            daemon
256
257
258       accountsd_unit_file_t
259
260       - Set files with the accountsd_unit_file_t type, if you want  to  treat
261       the files as accountsd unit content.
262
263
264
265       accountsd_var_lib_t
266
267       - Set files with the accountsd_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the
268       accountsd files under the /var/lib directory.
269
270
271
272       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
273       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
274       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
275       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
276
277

COMMANDS

279       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
280       mappings.
281
282       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
283       process type is permissive.
284
285       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
286       icy modules.
287
288       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
289
290
291       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
292       icy settings.
