6 colord_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the colord pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the colord processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12 The colord processes execute with the colord_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 colord_t
20
24 The colord_t SELinux type can be entered via the colord_exec_t file
25 type.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the colord_t domain are the following:
28 /usr/lib/[^/]*/colord/colord, /usr/lib/[^/]*/colord/colord-sane,
30 /usr/libexec/colord, /usr/lib/colord/colord, /usr/libexec/colord-sane,
31 /usr/lib/colord/colord-sane
32
34 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
35 system
36 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
38 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
40 colord policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their colord
41 processes in as secure a method as possible.
42 The following process types are defined for colord:
44 colord_t
46 Note: semanage permissive -a colord_t can be used to make the process
48 type colord_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
49 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
50 ated.
51
54 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. colord
55 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
56 manipulate the policy and run colord with the tightest access possible.
57 If you want to determine whether Colord can access nfs file systems,
61 you must turn on the colord_use_nfs boolean. Disabled by default.
62 setsebool -P colord_use_nfs 1
64 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
68 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
69 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
71 If you want to support ecryptfs home directories, you must turn on the
75 use_ecryptfs_home_dirs boolean. Disabled by default.
76 setsebool -P use_ecryptfs_home_dirs 1
78
82 The SELinux process type colord_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.

156 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
157 type.
158 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
160 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
162 SELinux colord policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
163 colord processes in as secure a method as possible.
164 EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
166 colord policy stores data with multiple different file context types
169 under the /var/lib/color directory. If you would like to store the
170 data in a different directory you can use the semanage command to cre‐
171 ate an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this data under the
172 /srv directory you would execute the following command:
173 semanage fcontext -a -e /var/lib/color /srv/color
175 restorecon -R -v /srv/color
176 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
178 SELinux defines the file context types for the colord, if you wanted to
180 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
181 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use re‐
182 storecon to put the labels on disk.
183 semanage fcontext -a -t colord_unit_file_t '/srv/mycolord_con‐
185 tent(/.*)?'
186 restorecon -R -v /srv/mycolord_content
187 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
189 match multiple files.
190 The following file types are defined for colord:
192 colord_exec_t
196 - Set files with the colord_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
198 executable to the colord_t domain.
199 Paths:
202 /usr/lib/[^/]*/colord/colord, /usr/lib/[^/]*/colord/colord-sane,
203 /usr/libexec/colord, /usr/lib/colord/colord, /usr/libexec/colord-
204 sane, /usr/lib/colord/colord-sane
205 colord_tmp_t
208 - Set files with the colord_tmp_t type, if you want to store colord
210 temporary files in the /tmp directories.
211 colord_tmpfs_t
215 - Set files with the colord_tmpfs_t type, if you want to store colord
217 files on a tmpfs file system.
218 colord_unit_file_t
222 - Set files with the colord_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat the
224 files as colord unit content.
225 colord_var_lib_t
229 - Set files with the colord_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the
231 colord files under the /var/lib directory.
232 Paths:
235 /var/lib/color(/.*)?, /var/lib/colord(/.*)?
236 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
239 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
240 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
241 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
242
245 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
246 mappings.
247 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
249 process type is permissive.
250 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
252 icy modules.
253 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
255 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
258 icy settings.
