6 cockpit_session_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the cock‐
7 pit_session processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the cockpit_session processes via flex‐
11 ible mandatory access control.
12 The cockpit_session processes execute with the cockpit_session_t
14 SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by exe‐
15 cuting the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16 For example:
18 ps -eZ | grep cockpit_session_t
20
24 The cockpit_session_t SELinux type can be entered via the cockpit_ses‐
25 sion_exec_t file type.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the cockpit_session_t domain are the
28 following:
29 /usr/libexec/cockpit-ssh, /usr/libexec/cockpit-session
31
33 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
34 system
35 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
37 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
39 cockpit_session policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 cockpit_session processes in as secure a method as possible.
41 The following process types are defined for cockpit_session:
43 cockpit_session_t
45 Note: semanage permissive -a cockpit_session_t can be used to make the
47 process type cockpit_session_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access
48 to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
49 still generated.
50
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. cock‐
54 pit_session policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run cockpit_session with the
56 tightest access possible.
57 If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from
61 ldap rather then using a sssd server, you must turn on the authlo‐
62 gin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.
63 setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
65 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
69 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
70 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
72 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
76 must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
77 setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
79 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
83 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
84 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
86 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
90 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Enabled by default.
91 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
93 If you want to enable polyinstantiated directory support, you must turn
97 on the polyinstantiation_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
98 setsebool -P polyinstantiation_enabled 1

104 The SELinux process type cockpit_session_t can manage files labeled
105 with the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths
106 for these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC
107 permissions.

227 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
228 type.
229 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
231 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
233 SELinux cockpit_session policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
234 their cockpit_session processes in as secure a method as possible.
235 The following file types are defined for cockpit_session:
237 cockpit_session_exec_t
241 - Set files with the cockpit_session_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
243 sition an executable to the cockpit_session_t domain.
244 Paths:
247 /usr/libexec/cockpit-ssh, /usr/libexec/cockpit-session
248 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
251 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
252 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
253 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
254
257 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
258 mappings.
259 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
261 process type is permissive.
262 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
264 icy modules.
265 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
267 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
270 icy settings.
