6 gpg_pinentry_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the
7 gpg_pinentry processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the gpg_pinentry processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The gpg_pinentry processes execute with the gpg_pinentry_t SELinux
14 type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing
15 the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep gpg_pinentry_t
20
21
22
24 The gpg_pinentry_t SELinux type can be entered via the pinentry_exec_t
25 file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the gpg_pinentry_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29
30 /usr/bin/pinentry.*
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 gpg_pinentry policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 gpg_pinentry processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for gpg_pinentry:
43
44 gpg_pinentry_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a gpg_pinentry_t can be used to make the
47 process type gpg_pinentry_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.
54 gpg_pinentry policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run gpg_pinentry with the tight‐
56 est access possible.

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. Disabled 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. Disabled by
98 default.
99
100 setsebool -P selinuxuser_direct_dri_enabled 1
101
102
103
104 If you want to allows clients to write to the X server shared memory
105 segments, you must turn on the xserver_clients_write_xshm boolean. Dis‐
106 abled by default.
107
108 setsebool -P xserver_clients_write_xshm 1

113 The SELinux process type gpg_pinentry_t can manage files labeled with
114 the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for
115 these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC per‐
116 missions.
