6 user_screen_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the
7 user_screen processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the user_screen processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The user_screen processes execute with the user_screen_t SELinux type.
14 You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps
15 command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep user_screen_t
20
21
22
24 The user_screen_t SELinux type can be entered via the screen_exec_t
25 file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the user_screen_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29
30 /usr/bin/tmux, /usr/bin/screen
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 user_screen policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 user_screen processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for user_screen:
43
44 user_screen_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a user_screen_t can be used to make the
47 process type user_screen_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
48 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
49 still generated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
54 user_screen policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run user_screen with the tight‐
56 est access possible.

61 ldap rather then using a sssd server, you must turn on the authlo‐

104
105
106
107 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn

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

177
178 /var/log/btmp.*
179 /var/log/faillog.*

197 mappings.
