6 keyboardd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the keyboardd
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the keyboardd processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The keyboardd processes execute with the keyboardd_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 keyboardd_t
20
21
22
24 The keyboardd_t SELinux type can be entered via the keyboardd_exec_t
25 file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the keyboardd_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29
30 /usr/bin/system-setup-keyboard
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 keyboardd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their key‐
40 boardd processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for keyboardd:
43
44 keyboardd_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a keyboardd_t can be used to make the
47 process type keyboardd_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. key‐
54 boardd policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
55 you to manipulate the policy and run keyboardd with the tightest access
56 possible.

113 you must turn on the domain_fd_use boolean. Enabled by default.
114
115 setsebool -P domain_fd_use 1
116
117
118
119 If you want to allow all domains to have the kernel load modules, you
120 must turn on the domain_kernel_load_modules boolean. Disabled by
121 default.
122
123 setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1
124
125
126
127 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
128 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
129
130 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
131
132
133
134 If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn
135 on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default.
136
137 setsebool -P global_ssp 1
138
139
140
142 The SELinux process type keyboardd_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.

213 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
214 type.
215
216 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
217
218 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
219 SELinux keyboardd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
220 keyboardd processes in as secure a method as possible.
221
222 The following file types are defined for keyboardd:
223
224
225
226 keyboardd_exec_t
227
228 - Set files with the keyboardd_exec_t type, if you want to transition
229 an executable to the keyboardd_t domain.
230
231
232
233 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
234 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
235 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
236 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
237
238
240 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
241 mappings.
242
243 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
244 process type is permissive.
245
246 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
247 icy modules.
248
249 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
250
251
252 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
253 icy settings.
