6 kmscon_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the kmscon pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the kmscon processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The kmscon processes execute with the kmscon_t SELinux type. You can
14 check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command
15 with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep kmscon_t
20
21
22
24 The kmscon_t SELinux type can be entered via the kmscon_exec_t file
25 type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the kmscon_t domain are the following:
28
29 /usr/bin/kmscon
30
32 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
33 system
34
35 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
36
37 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
38 kmscon policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their kmscon
39 processes in as secure a method as possible.
40
41 The following process types are defined for kmscon:
42
43 kmscon_t
44
45 Note: semanage permissive -a kmscon_t can be used to make the process
46 type kmscon_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
47 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
48 ated.
49
50
52 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. kmscon
53 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
54 manipulate the policy and run kmscon with the tightest access possible.
55
56
57
58 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
59 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
60
61 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
62
63
64
66 The SELinux process type kmscon_t can manage files labeled with the
67 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
68 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

107 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
108 type.
109
110 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
111
112 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
113 SELinux kmscon policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
114 kmscon processes in as secure a method as possible.
115
116 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
117
118 SELinux defines the file context types for the kmscon, if you wanted to
119 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
120 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
121 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
122
123 semanage fcontext -a -t kmscon_unit_file_t '/srv/mykmscon_con‐
124 tent(/.*)?'
125 restorecon -R -v /srv/mykmscon_content
126
127 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
128 match multiple files.
129
130 The following file types are defined for kmscon:
131
132
133
134 kmscon_conf_t
135
136 - Set files with the kmscon_conf_t type, if you want to treat the files
137 as kmscon configuration data, usually stored under the /etc directory.
138
139
140
141 kmscon_exec_t
142
143 - Set files with the kmscon_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
144 executable to the kmscon_t domain.
145
146
147
148 kmscon_unit_file_t
149
150 - Set files with the kmscon_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat the
151 files as kmscon unit content.
152
153
154
155 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
156 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
157 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
158 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
159
160
162 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
163 mappings.
164
165 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
166 process type is permissive.
167
168 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
169 icy modules.
170
171 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
172
173
174 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
175 icy settings.
