6 gssd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the gssd processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the gssd processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11
12 The gssd processes execute with the gssd_t SELinux type. You can check
13 if you have these processes running by executing the ps command with
14 the -Z qualifier.
15
16 For example:
17
18 ps -eZ | grep gssd_t
19
20
21
23 The gssd_t SELinux type can be entered via the gssd_exec_t file type.
24
25 The default entrypoint paths for the gssd_t domain are the following:
26
27 /usr/sbin/rpc.gssd, /usr/sbin/rpc.svcgssd
28
30 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
31 system
32
33 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
34
35 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
36 gssd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their gssd pro‐
37 cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39 The following process types are defined for gssd:
40
41 gssd_t
42
43 Note: semanage permissive -a gssd_t can be used to make the process
44 type gssd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
45 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
46 ated.
47
48
50 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. gssd
51 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52 manipulate the policy and run gssd with the tightest access possible.
53
54
55
56 If you want to allow gssd to list tmp directories and read the kerberos
57 credential cache, you must turn on the gssd_read_tmp boolean. Enabled
58 by default.
59
60 setsebool -P gssd_read_tmp 1
61
62
63
64 If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from
65 ldap rather then using a sssd server, you must turn on the authlo‐
66 gin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.
67
68 setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
69
70
71
72 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
73 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
74
75 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
76
77
78
79 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
80 must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
81
82 setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
83
84
85
86 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
87 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
88
89 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
90
91
92
93 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
94 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Disabled by default.
95
96 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
97
98
99
101 The SELinux process type gssd_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
102 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
103 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

184 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
185 type.
186
187 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
188
189 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
190 SELinux gssd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their gssd
191 processes in as secure a method as possible.
192
193 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
194
195 SELinux defines the file context types for the gssd, if you wanted to
196 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
197 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
198 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
199
200 semanage fcontext -a -t gssd_tmp_t '/srv/mygssd_content(/.*)?'
201 restorecon -R -v /srv/mygssd_content
202
203 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
204 match multiple files.
205
206 The following file types are defined for gssd:
207
208
209
210 gssd_exec_t
211
212 - Set files with the gssd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
213 executable to the gssd_t domain.
214
215
216 Paths:
217 /usr/sbin/rpc.gssd, /usr/sbin/rpc.svcgssd
218
219
220 gssd_keytab_t
221
222 - Set files with the gssd_keytab_t type, if you want to treat the files
223 as kerberos keytab files.
224
225
226
227 gssd_tmp_t
228
229 - Set files with the gssd_tmp_t type, if you want to store gssd tempo‐
230 rary files in the /tmp directories.
231
232
233
234 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
235 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
236 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
237 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
238
239
241 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
242 mappings.
243
244 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
245 process type is permissive.
246
247 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
248 icy modules.
249
250 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
251
252
253 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
254 icy settings.
