6 gssd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the gssd processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the gssd processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11
12 The gssd processes execute with the gssd_t SELinux type. You can check
13 if you have these processes running by executing the ps command with
14 the -Z qualifier.
15
16 For example:
17
18 ps -eZ | grep gssd_t
19
20
21
23 The gssd_t SELinux type can be entered via the gssd_exec_t file type.
24
25 The default entrypoint paths for the gssd_t domain are the following:
26
27 /usr/sbin/rpc.gssd, /usr/sbin/rpc.svcgssd
28
30 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
31 system
32
33 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
34
35 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
36 gssd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their gssd pro‐
37 cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39 The following process types are defined for gssd:
40
41 gssd_t
42
43 Note: semanage permissive -a gssd_t can be used to make the process
44 type gssd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
45 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
46 ated.
47
48
50 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. gssd
51 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52 manipulate the policy and run gssd with the tightest access possible.
53
54
55
56 If you want to allow gssd to list tmp directories and read the kerberos
57 credential cache, you must turn on the gssd_read_tmp boolean. Enabled
58 by default.
59
60 setsebool -P gssd_read_tmp 1
61
62
63
64 If you want to dontaudit all daemons scheduling requests (setsched,
65 sys_nice), you must turn on the daemons_dontaudit_scheduling boolean.
66 Enabled by default.
67
68 setsebool -P daemons_dontaudit_scheduling 1
69
70
71
72 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
73 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
74
75 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
76
77
78
79 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
80 must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
81
82 setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
83
84
85
86 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
87 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
88
89 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
90
91
92
94 The SELinux process type gssd_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
95 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
96 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

181 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
182 type.
183
184 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
185
186 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
187 SELinux gssd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their gssd
188 processes in as secure a method as possible.
189
190 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
191
192 SELinux defines the file context types for the gssd, if you wanted to
193 store files with these types in a different paths, you need to execute
194 the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use re‐
195 storecon to put the labels on disk.
196
197 semanage fcontext -a -t gssd_exec_t '/srv/gssd/content(/.*)?'
198 restorecon -R -v /srv/mygssd_content
199
200 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
201 match multiple files.
202
203 The following file types are defined for gssd:
204
205
206
207 gssd_exec_t
208
209 - Set files with the gssd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an ex‐
210 ecutable to the gssd_t domain.
211
212
213 Paths:
214 /usr/sbin/rpc.gssd, /usr/sbin/rpc.svcgssd
215
216
217 gssd_keytab_t
218
219 - Set files with the gssd_keytab_t type, if you want to treat the files
220 as kerberos keytab files.
221
222
223
224 gssd_tmp_t
225
226 - Set files with the gssd_tmp_t type, if you want to store gssd tempo‐
227 rary files in the /tmp directories.
228
229
230
231 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
232 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
233 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
234 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
235
236
238 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
239 mappings.
240
241 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
242 process type is permissive.
243
244 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
245 icy modules.
246
247 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
248
249
250 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
251 icy settings.
