6 games_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the games processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the games processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11
12 The games processes execute with the games_t SELinux type. You can
13 check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command
14 with the -Z qualifier.
15
16 For example:
17
18 ps -eZ | grep games_t
19
20
21
23 The games_t SELinux type can be entered via the games_exec_t file type.
24
25 The default entrypoint paths for the games_t domain are the following:
26
27 /usr/games/.*, /usr/lib/games(/.*)?, /usr/bin/civclient.*,
28 /usr/bin/civserver.*, /usr/bin/sol, /usr/bin/kolf, /usr/bin/kpat,
29 /usr/bin/micq, /usr/bin/gnect, /usr/bin/gtali, /usr/bin/iagno,
30 /usr/bin/ksame, /usr/bin/ktron, /usr/bin/kwin4, /usr/bin/lskat,
31 /usr/bin/gataxx, /usr/bin/glines, /usr/bin/klines, /usr/bin/kmines,
32 /usr/bin/kpoker, /usr/bin/ksnake, /usr/bin/gnomine, /usr/bin/gnotski,

45 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
46 system
47
48 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
49
50 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
51 games policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their games pro‐
52 cesses in as secure a method as possible.
53
54 The following process types are defined for games:
55
56 games_t, games_srv_t
57
58 Note: semanage permissive -a games_t can be used to make the process
59 type games_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
60 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
61 ated.
62
63
65 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. games
66 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
67 manipulate the policy and run games with the tightest access possible.
68
69
70
71 If you want to deny user domains applications to map a memory region as
72 both executable and writable, this is dangerous and the executable
73 should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the deny_execmem bool‐
74 ean. Enabled by default.
75
76 setsebool -P deny_execmem 1
77
78
79
80 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
81 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
82
83 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
84
85
86
87 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
88 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Enabled by default.
89
90 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
91
92
93
94 If you want to allow regular users direct dri device access, you must
95 turn on the selinuxuser_direct_dri_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
96
97 setsebool -P selinuxuser_direct_dri_enabled 1
98
99
100
101 If you want to allows clients to write to the X server shared memory
102 segments, you must turn on the xserver_clients_write_xshm boolean. Dis‐
103 abled by default.
104
105 setsebool -P xserver_clients_write_xshm 1
106
107
108
110 The SELinux process type games_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
111 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
112 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

153 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
154 type.
155
156 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
157
158 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
159 SELinux games policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
160 games processes in as secure a method as possible.
161
162 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
163
164 SELinux defines the file context types for the games, if you wanted to
165 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
166 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
167 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
168
169 semanage fcontext -a -t games_tmpfs_t '/srv/mygames_content(/.*)?'
170 restorecon -R -v /srv/mygames_content
171
172 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
173 match multiple files.
174
175 The following file types are defined for games:
176
177
178
179 games_data_t
180
181 - Set files with the games_data_t type, if you want to treat the files
182 as games content.
183
184
185 Paths:
186 /var/games(/.*)?, /var/lib/games(/.*)?
187
188
189 games_exec_t
190
191 - Set files with the games_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
192 executable to the games_t domain.
193
194
195 Paths:
196 /usr/games/.*, /usr/lib/games(/.*)?, /usr/bin/civclient.*,
197 /usr/bin/civserver.*, /usr/bin/sol, /usr/bin/kolf, /usr/bin/kpat,
198 /usr/bin/micq, /usr/bin/gnect, /usr/bin/gtali, /usr/bin/iagno,

213
214
215 games_srv_var_run_t
216
217 - Set files with the games_srv_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
218 games srv files under the /run or /var/run directory.
219
220
221
222 games_tmp_t
223
224 - Set files with the games_tmp_t type, if you want to store games tem‐
225 porary files in the /tmp directories.
226
227
228
229 games_tmpfs_t
230
231 - Set files with the games_tmpfs_t type, if you want to store games
232 files on a tmpfs file system.
233
234
235
236 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
237 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
238 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
239 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
240
241
243 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
244 mappings.
245
246 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
247 process type is permissive.
248
249 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
250 icy modules.
251
252 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
253
254
255 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
256 icy settings.
