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.

108 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
109 type.
110
111 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
112
113 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
114 SELinux kmscon policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
115 kmscon processes in as secure a method as possible.
116
117 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
118
119 SELinux defines the file context types for the kmscon, if you wanted to
120 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
121 the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use re‐
122 storecon to put the labels on disk.
123
124 semanage fcontext -a -t kmscon_unit_file_t '/srv/mykmscon_con‐
125 tent(/.*)?'
126 restorecon -R -v /srv/mykmscon_content
127
128 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
129 match multiple files.
130
131 The following file types are defined for kmscon:
132
133
134
135 kmscon_conf_t
136
137 - Set files with the kmscon_conf_t type, if you want to treat the files
138 as kmscon configuration data, usually stored under the /etc directory.
139
140
141
142 kmscon_exec_t
143
144 - Set files with the kmscon_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
145 executable to the kmscon_t domain.
146
147
148
149 kmscon_unit_file_t
150
151 - Set files with the kmscon_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat the
152 files as kmscon unit content.
153
154
155
156 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
157 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
158 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
159 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
160
161
163 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
164 mappings.
165
166 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
167 process type is permissive.
168
169 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
170 icy modules.
171
172 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
173
174
175 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
176 icy settings.
