6 geoclue_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the geoclue pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the geoclue processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12 The geoclue processes execute with the geoclue_t SELinux type. You can
14 check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command
15 with the -Z qualifier.
16 For example:
18 ps -eZ | grep geoclue_t
20
24 The geoclue_t SELinux type can be entered via the geoclue_exec_t file
25 type.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the geoclue_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29 /usr/libexec/geoclue
31
33 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
34 system
35 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
37 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
39 geoclue policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their geoclue
40 processes in as secure a method as possible.
41 The following process types are defined for geoclue:
43 geoclue_t
45 Note: semanage permissive -a geoclue_t can be used to make the process
47 type geoclue_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
48 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
49 ated.
50
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. geoclue
54 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
55 manipulate the policy and run geoclue with the tightest access possi‐
56 ble.
57 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
61 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
62 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
64 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
68 must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
69 setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
71 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
75 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Disabled by default.
76 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1

82 The SELinux process type geoclue_t can manage files labeled with the
83 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
84 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

127 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
128 type.
129 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
131 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
133 SELinux geoclue policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
134 geoclue processes in as secure a method as possible.
135 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
137 SELinux defines the file context types for the geoclue, if you wanted
139 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
140 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
141 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
142 semanage fcontext -a -t geoclue_tmp_t '/srv/mygeoclue_content(/.*)?'
144 restorecon -R -v /srv/mygeoclue_content
145 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
147 match multiple files.
148 The following file types are defined for geoclue:
150 geoclue_exec_t
154 - Set files with the geoclue_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
156 executable to the geoclue_t domain.
157 geoclue_tmp_t
161 - Set files with the geoclue_tmp_t type, if you want to store geoclue
163 temporary files in the /tmp directories.
164 geoclue_var_lib_t
168 - Set files with the geoclue_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the
170 geoclue files under the /var/lib directory.
171 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
175 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
176 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
177 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
178
181 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
182 mappings.
183 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
185 process type is permissive.
186 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
188 icy modules.
189 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
191 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
194 icy settings.
