💖 NAME 💖

gnome_remote_desktop_selinux — the Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the gnome_remote_desktop processes. And yes bestie, this is page gnome_r...selinux(8) from the SELinux Policy gnome_remote_desktop manual. 💅

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Security-Enhanced Linux secures the gnome_remote_desktop processes via flexible mandatory access control. No cap, that’s the whole vibe.

The gnome_remote_desktop processes execute with the gnome_remote_desktop_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 gnome_remote_desktop_t

🦋 ENTRYPOINTS 🦋

The gnome_remote_desktop_t SELinux type can be entered via the gnome_remote_desktop_exec_t file type.

The default entrypoint paths for the gnome_remote_desktop_t domain are the following:

/usr/libexec/gnome-remote-desktop-daemon

🌸 PROCESS TYPES 🌸

SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the system. Main character energy for every process, honestly.

You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps.

Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. The SELinux gnome_remote_desktop policy is very flexible, allowing users to setup their gnome_remote_desktop processes in as secure a method as possible.

The following process types are defined for gnome_remote_desktop:

  • gnome_remote_desktop_t
Note: semanage permissive -a gnome_remote_desktop_t can be used to make the process type gnome_remote_desktop_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated.

🎀 BOOLEANS 🎀

SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. The gnome_remote_desktop policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run gnome_remote_desktop with the tightest access possible. It’s giving controlled chaos, but make it secure.

If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.

setsebool -P fips_mode 1

🌈 PORT TYPES 🌈

SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.

You can see the types associated with a port by using the following command:

semanage port -l

Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports. The SELinux gnome_remote_desktop policy is very flexible, allowing users to setup their gnome_remote_desktop processes in as secure a method as possible.

The following port types are defined for gnome_remote_desktop:

  • gnome_remote_desktop_port_t
  • Default Defined Ports: tcp 3389-3399

🍓 MANAGED FILES 🍓

The SELinux process type gnome_remote_desktop_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. DAC said “not so fast,” bestie.

  • gnome_remote_desktop_var_lib_t

/var/lib/gnome-remote-desktop(/.*)?

🧚 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 ls.

Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files. The SELinux gnome_remote_desktop policy is very flexible, allowing users to setup their gnome_remote_desktop processes in as secure a method as possible.

🌟 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT 🌟

SELinux defines the file context types for the gnome_remote_desktop. 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. Labeling glow-up, activated.

semanage fcontext -a -t gnome_remote_desktop_exec_t
'/srv/gnome_remote_desktop/content(/.*)?'
restorecon -R -v /srv/mygnome_remote_desktop_content
Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files.

The following file types are defined for gnome_remote_desktop:

  • gnome_remote_desktop_exec_t — Set files with the gnome_remote_desktop_exec_t type, if you want to transition an executable to the gnome_remote_desktop_t domain.
  • gnome_remote_desktop_var_lib_t — Set files with the gnome_remote_desktop_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the gnome remote desktop files under the /var/lib directory.
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.
  • semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions.
  • semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans.
  • system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux policy settings.
