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. Disabled 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.

190 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
191 type.
192
193 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
194
195 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
196 SELinux consolekit policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
197 their consolekit processes in as secure a method as possible.
198
199 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
200
201 SELinux defines the file context types for the consolekit, if you
202 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
203 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
204 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
205
206 semanage fcontext -a -t consolekit_unit_file_t '/srv/myconsolekit_con‐
207 tent(/.*)?'
208 restorecon -R -v /srv/myconsolekit_content
209
210 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
211 match multiple files.
212
213 The following file types are defined for consolekit:
214
215
216
217 consolekit_exec_t
218
219 - Set files with the consolekit_exec_t type, if you want to transition
220 an executable to the consolekit_t domain.
221
222
223
224 consolekit_log_t
225
226 - Set files with the consolekit_log_t type, if you want to treat the
227 data as consolekit log data, usually stored under the /var/log direc‐
228 tory.
229
230
231
232 consolekit_tmpfs_t
233
234 - Set files with the consolekit_tmpfs_t type, if you want to store con‐
235 solekit files on a tmpfs file system.
236
237
238
239 consolekit_unit_file_t
240
241 - Set files with the consolekit_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat
242 the files as consolekit unit content.
243
244
245
246 consolekit_var_run_t
247
248 - Set files with the consolekit_var_run_t type, if you want to store
249 the consolekit files under the /run or /var/run directory.
250
251
252 Paths:
253 /var/run/ConsoleKit(/.*)?, /var/run/consolekit.pid, /var/run/con‐
254 sole-kit-daemon.pid
255
256
257 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
258 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
259 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
260 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
261
262
264 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
265 mappings.
266
267 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
268 process type is permissive.
269
270 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
271 icy modules.
272
273 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
274
275
276 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
277 icy settings.
