Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the freqset processes
Description
Security-Enhanced Linux secures the freqset processes via flexible mandatory access control.
The freqset processes execute with the freqset_t SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
For example:
ps -eZ | grep freqset_t
Entrypoints
The freqset_t SELinux type can be entered via the freqset_exec_t file type.
The default entrypoint paths for the freqset_t domain are the following:
/usr/lib/enlightenment/modules/cpufreq/linux-gnu-[^/]*/freqset
Process Types
SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the system
You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to psbP
Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux freqset policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their freqset processes in as secure a method as possible.
The following process types are defined for freqset:
freqset_t
Note: semanage permissive -a freqset_t can be used to make the process type freqset_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated.
Managed Files
The SELinux process type freqset_t can manage files labeled with the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
sysfs_t
/sys(/.*)?
File Contexts
SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file type.
You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to lsbP
Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files. SELinux freqset policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their freqset processes in as secure a method as possible.
STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
SELinux defines the file context types for the freqset, if you wanted to store files with these types in a different paths, you need to execute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
semanage fcontext -a -t freqset_exec_t '/srv/freqset/content(/.*)?'
restorecon -R -v /srv/myfreqset_content
Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files.
The following file types are defined for freqset:
freqset_exec_t
- Set files with the freqset_exec_t type, if you want to transition an executable to the freqset_t domain.
Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command. If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling database. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
Commands
semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context mappings.
semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a process type is permissive.
semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove policy modules.
system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux policy settings.
