6 policykit_resolve_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the pol‐
7 icykit_resolve processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the policykit_resolve processes via
11 flexible mandatory access control.
12
13 The policykit_resolve processes execute with the policykit_resolve_t
14 SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by exe‐
15 cuting the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep policykit_resolve_t
20
21
22
24 The policykit_resolve_t SELinux type can be entered via the poli‐
25 cykit_resolve_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the policykit_resolve_t domain are the
28 following:
29
30 /usr/libexec/polkit-resolve-exe-helper.*, /usr/lib/policykit/polkit-re‐
31 solve-exe-helper.*
32
34 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
35 system
36
37 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
38
39 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
40 policykit_resolve policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
41 policykit_resolve processes in as secure a method as possible.
42
43 The following process types are defined for policykit_resolve:
44
45 policykit_resolve_t
46
47 Note: semanage permissive -a policykit_resolve_t can be used to make
48 the process type policykit_resolve_t permissive. SELinux does not deny
49 access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) mes‐
50 sages are still generated.
51
52
54 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. poli‐
55 cykit_resolve policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans
56 that allow you to manipulate the policy and run policykit_resolve with
57 the tightest access possible.
58
59
60
61 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
62 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
63
64 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
65
66
67
68 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
69 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
70
71 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
72
73
74
76 The SELinux process type policykit_resolve_t can manage files labeled
77 with the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths
78 for these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC
79 permissions.
80
81 krb5_host_rcache_t
82
83 /var/tmp/krb5_0.rcache2
84 /var/cache/krb5rcache(/.*)?
85 /var/tmp/nfs_0
86 /var/tmp/DNS_25
87 /var/tmp/host_0
88 /var/tmp/imap_0
89 /var/tmp/HTTP_23
90 /var/tmp/HTTP_48
91 /var/tmp/ldap_55
92 /var/tmp/ldap_487
93 /var/tmp/ldapmap1_0
94
95
97 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
98 type.
99
100 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
101
102 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
103 SELinux policykit_resolve policy is very flexible allowing users to
104 setup their policykit_resolve processes in as secure a method as possi‐
105 ble.
106
107 The following file types are defined for policykit_resolve:
108
109
110
111 policykit_resolve_exec_t
112
113 - Set files with the policykit_resolve_exec_t type, if you want to
114 transition an executable to the policykit_resolve_t domain.
115
116
117 Paths:
118 /usr/libexec/polkit-resolve-exe-helper.*, /usr/lib/poli‐
119 cykit/polkit-resolve-exe-helper.*
120
121
122 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
123 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
124 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
125 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
126
127
129 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
130 mappings.
131
132 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
133 process type is permissive.
134
135 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
136 icy modules.
137
138 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
139
140
141 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
142 icy settings.
