6 consolekit_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the consolekit
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the consolekit processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The consolekit processes execute with the consolekit_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 consolekit_t
20
21
22
24 The consolekit_t SELinux type can be entered via the consolekit_exec_t
25 file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the consolekit_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29
30 /usr/sbin/console-kit-daemon
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 consolekit policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their con‐
40 solekit processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for consolekit:
43
44 consolekit_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a consolekit_t can be used to make the
47 process type consolekit_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. con‐
54 solekit policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run consolekit with the tightest
56 access possible.
57
58
59
60 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
64 setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
65
66
67
68 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
71 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
72
73
74
75 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
76 must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
77
78 setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
79
80
81
82 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
83 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
84
85 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
86
87
88
89 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
92 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
93
94
95
96 If you want to allow regular users direct dri device access, you must
97 turn on the selinuxuser_direct_dri_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
98
99 setsebool -P selinuxuser_direct_dri_enabled 1
100
101
102
103 If you want to allows clients to write to the X server shared memory
104 segments, you must turn on the xserver_clients_write_xshm boolean. Dis‐
105 abled by default.
106
107 setsebool -P xserver_clients_write_xshm 1
108
109
110
112 The SELinux process type consolekit_t can manage files labeled with the
113 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
114 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

188 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
189 type.
190
191 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
192
193 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
194 SELinux consolekit policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
195 their consolekit processes in as secure a method as possible.
196
197 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
198
199 SELinux defines the file context types for the consolekit, if you
200 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
201 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
202 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
203
204 semanage fcontext -a -t consolekit_unit_file_t '/srv/myconsolekit_con‐
205 tent(/.*)?'
206 restorecon -R -v /srv/myconsolekit_content
207
208 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
209 match multiple files.
210
211 The following file types are defined for consolekit:
212
213
214
215 consolekit_exec_t
216
217 - Set files with the consolekit_exec_t type, if you want to transition
218 an executable to the consolekit_t domain.
219
220
221
222 consolekit_log_t
223
224 - Set files with the consolekit_log_t type, if you want to treat the
225 data as consolekit log data, usually stored under the /var/log direc‐
226 tory.
227
228
229
230 consolekit_tmpfs_t
231
232 - Set files with the consolekit_tmpfs_t type, if you want to store con‐
233 solekit files on a tmpfs file system.
234
235
236
237 consolekit_unit_file_t
238
239 - Set files with the consolekit_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat
240 the files as consolekit unit content.
241
242
243
244 consolekit_var_run_t
245
246 - Set files with the consolekit_var_run_t type, if you want to store
247 the consolekit files under the /run or /var/run directory.
248
249
250 Paths:
251 /var/run/ConsoleKit(/.*)?, /var/run/consolekit.pid, /var/run/con‐
252 sole-kit-daemon.pid
253
254
255 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
256 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
257 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
258 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
259
260
262 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
263 mappings.
264
265 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
266 process type is permissive.
267
268 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
269 icy modules.
270
271 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
272
273
274 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
275 icy settings.
