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 all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
61 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
62
63 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
64
65
66
67 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
68 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
69
70 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
71
72
73
74 If you want to allow regular users direct dri device access, you must
75 turn on the selinuxuser_direct_dri_enabled boolean. Disabled by
76 default.
77
78 setsebool -P selinuxuser_direct_dri_enabled 1
79
80
81
82 If you want to allows clients to write to the X server shared memory
83 segments, you must turn on the xserver_clients_write_xshm boolean. Dis‐
84 abled by default.
85
86 setsebool -P xserver_clients_write_xshm 1
87

91 The SELinux process type consolekit_t can manage files labeled with the
92 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
93 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

166 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
167 type.
168
169 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
170
171 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
172 SELinux consolekit policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
173 their consolekit processes in as secure a method as possible.
174
175 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
176
177 SELinux defines the file context types for the consolekit, if you
178 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
179 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
180 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
181
182 semanage fcontext -a -t consolekit_unit_file_t '/srv/myconsolekit_con‐
183 tent(/.*)?'
184 restorecon -R -v /srv/myconsolekit_content
185
186 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
187 match multiple files.
188
189 The following file types are defined for consolekit:
190
191
192
193 consolekit_exec_t
194
195 - Set files with the consolekit_exec_t type, if you want to transition
196 an executable to the consolekit_t domain.
197
198
199
200 consolekit_log_t
201
202 - Set files with the consolekit_log_t type, if you want to treat the
203 data as consolekit log data, usually stored under the /var/log direc‐
204 tory.
205
206
207
208 consolekit_tmpfs_t
209
210 - Set files with the consolekit_tmpfs_t type, if you want to store con‐
211 solekit files on a tmpfs file system.
212
213
214
215 consolekit_unit_file_t
216
217 - Set files with the consolekit_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat
218 the files as consolekit unit content.
219
220
221
222 consolekit_var_run_t
223
224 - Set files with the consolekit_var_run_t type, if you want to store
225 the consolekit files under the /run or /var/run directory.
226
227
228 Paths:
229 /var/run/ConsoleKit(/.*)?, /var/run/consolekit.pid, /var/run/con‐
230 sole-kit-daemon.pid
231
232
233 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
234 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
235 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
236 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
237
238
240 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
241 mappings.
242
243 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
244 process type is permissive.
245
246 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
247 icy modules.
248
249 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
250
251
252 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
253 icy settings.
