6 iceauth_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the iceauth pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the iceauth processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The iceauth processes execute with the iceauth_t SELinux type. You can
14 check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command
15 with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep iceauth_t
20
21
22
24 The iceauth_t SELinux type can be entered via the iceauth_exec_t file
25 type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the iceauth_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29
30 /usr/bin/iceauth, /usr/X11R6/bin/iceauth
31
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 iceauth policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their iceauth
40 processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for iceauth:
43
44 iceauth_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a iceauth_t can be used to make the process
47 type iceauth_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
48 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
49 ated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. iceauth
54 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
55 manipulate the policy and run iceauth with the tightest access possi‐
56 ble.
57
58
59
60 If you want to deny any process from ptracing or debugging any other
61 processes, you must turn on the deny_ptrace boolean. Enabled by
62 default.
63
64 setsebool -P deny_ptrace 1
65
66
67
68 If you want to allow any process to mmap any file on system with
69 attribute file_type, you must turn on the domain_can_mmap_files bool‐
70 ean. Enabled by default.
71
72 setsebool -P domain_can_mmap_files 1
73
74
75
76 If you want to allow all domains write to kmsg_device, while kernel is
77 executed with systemd.log_target=kmsg parameter, you must turn on the
78 domain_can_write_kmsg boolean. Disabled by default.
79
80 setsebool -P domain_can_write_kmsg 1
81
82
83
84 If you want to allow all domains to use other domains file descriptors,
85 you must turn on the domain_fd_use boolean. Enabled by default.
86
87 setsebool -P domain_fd_use 1
88
89
90
91 If you want to allow all domains to have the kernel load modules, you
92 must turn on the domain_kernel_load_modules boolean. Disabled by
93 default.
94
95 setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1
96
97
98
99 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
100 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
101
102 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
103
104
105
106 If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn
107 on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default.
108
109 setsebool -P global_ssp 1
110
111
112
113 If you want to support ecryptfs home directories, you must turn on the
114 use_ecryptfs_home_dirs boolean. Disabled by default.
115
116 setsebool -P use_ecryptfs_home_dirs 1
117
118
119
120 If you want to support fusefs home directories, you must turn on the
121 use_fusefs_home_dirs boolean. Disabled by default.
122
123 setsebool -P use_fusefs_home_dirs 1
124
125
126
127 If you want to support NFS home directories, you must turn on the
128 use_nfs_home_dirs boolean. Disabled by default.
129
130 setsebool -P use_nfs_home_dirs 1
131
132
133
134 If you want to support SAMBA home directories, you must turn on the
135 use_samba_home_dirs boolean. Disabled by default.
136
137 setsebool -P use_samba_home_dirs 1
138
139
140
142 The SELinux process type iceauth_t can manage files labeled with the
143 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
144 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
145
146 cifs_t
147
148
149 ecryptfs_t
150
151 /home/[^/]+/.Private(/.*)?
152 /home/[^/]+/.ecryptfs(/.*)?
153
154 fusefs_t
155
156 /var/run/user/[^/]*/gvfs
157
158 iceauth_home_t
159
160 /root/.DCOP.*
161 /root/.ICEauthority.*
162 /home/[^/]+/.DCOP.*
163 /home/[^/]+/.ICEauthority.*
164

170 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
171 type.
172
173 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
174
175 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
176 SELinux iceauth policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
177 iceauth processes in as secure a method as possible.
178
179 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
180
181 SELinux defines the file context types for the iceauth, if you wanted
182 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
183 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
184 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
185
186 semanage fcontext -a -t iceauth_home_t '/srv/myiceauth_content(/.*)?'
187 restorecon -R -v /srv/myiceauth_content
188
189 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
190 match multiple files.
191
192 The following file types are defined for iceauth:
193
194
195
196 iceauth_exec_t
197
198 - Set files with the iceauth_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
199 executable to the iceauth_t domain.
200
201
202 Paths:
203 /usr/bin/iceauth, /usr/X11R6/bin/iceauth
204
205
206 iceauth_home_t
207
208 - Set files with the iceauth_home_t type, if you want to store iceauth
209 files in the users home directory.
210
211
212 Paths:
213 /root/.DCOP.*, /root/.ICEauthority.*, /home/[^/]+/.DCOP.*,
214 /home/[^/]+/.ICEauthority.*
215
216
217 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
218 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
219 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
220 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
221
222
224 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
225 mappings.
226
227 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
228 process type is permissive.
229
230 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
231 icy modules.
232
233 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
234
235
236 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
237 icy settings.
