β¨ kanidm_unixd_tasks_selinux β the SELinux glow-up for kanidm_unixd_tasks β¨
okay so bestie, this is the manual for kanidm_unixd_tasks_selinux, and it's literally all about keeping the kanidm_unixd_tasks processes locked down and iconic with SELinux. no cap, it's giving security but make it fashion π
π NAME π
kanidm_unixd_tasks_selinux β the Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the kanidm_unixd_tasks processes, and yes it ate π
πΈ DESCRIPTION πΈ
Security-Enhanced Linux secures the kanidm_unixd_tasks processes via flexible mandatory access control. fr fr, that's the whole vibe β flexible but make it mandatory π€
The kanidm_unixd_tasks processes execute with the kanidm_unixd_tasks_t SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command with the -Z qualifier. lowkey the -Z is the main character here π
For example:
ps -eZ | grep kanidm_unixd_tasks_t
π¦ ENTRYPOINTS π¦
The kanidm_unixd_tasks_t SELinux type can be entered via the kanidm_unixd_tasks_exec_t file type.
The default entrypoint paths for the kanidm_unixd_tasks_t domain are the following:
/usr/bin/kanidm_unixd_tasks
that's the one and only door in, periodt πͺβ¨
π PROCESS TYPES π
SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the system. it's giving every process gets its own little label, obsessed π·οΈ
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 kanidm_unixd_tasks policy is very flexible, allowing users to setup their kanidm_unixd_tasks processes in as secure a method as possible. highkey secure, highkey flexible, we love a multitasker π
The following process types are defined for kanidm_unixd_tasks:
kanidm_unixd_tasks_t
Note:semanage permissive -a kanidm_unixd_tasks_tcan be used to make the process typekanidm_unixd_tasks_tpermissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated. so yeah, it's not a free pass, the receipts still show up π
π BOOLEANS π
SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. The kanidm_unixd_tasks policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run kanidm_unixd_tasks with the tightest access possible. tightest access = the aesthetic π₯
If you want to dontaudit all daemons scheduling requests (setsched, sys_nice), you must turn on the daemons_dontaudit_scheduling boolean. Enabled by default. slay, it's already on π
setsebool -P daemons_dontaudit_scheduling 1
If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default. also already on, we love a defaults queen π
setsebool -P fips_mode 1
π§ MANAGED FILES π§
The SELinux process type kanidm_unixd_tasks_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. like yes the label is cute but the UID still gotta have the perms, iykyk π

π FILE CONTEXTS π
SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file type. it's giving every file needs a little tag, no exceptions π·οΈβ¨
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 kanidm_unixd_tasks policy is very flexible, allowing users to setup their kanidm_unixd_tasks processes in as secure a method as possible. same energy, different files, we stay flexible π
β STANDARD FILE CONTEXT β
SELinux defines the file context types for the kanidm_unixd_tasks. 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. relabeling era, we love to see it π
semanage fcontext -a -t kanidm_unixd_tasks_exec_t '/srv/kanidm_unixd_tasks/content(/.*)?'
restorecon -R -v /srv/mykanidm_unixd_tasks_content
Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files. regex said batch labels, and honestly? iconic π
The following file types are defined for kanidm_unixd_tasks:
kanidm_unixd_tasks_exec_tβ Set files with thekanidm_unixd_tasks_exec_ttype, if you want to transition an executable to thekanidm_unixd_tasks_tdomain. it's giving domain transition, main character energy π
Note: File context can be temporarily modified with thechconcommand. If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use thesemanage fcontextcommand. This will modify the SELinux labeling database. You will need to userestoreconto apply the labels. temporary vs permanent, know the difference bestie π
π₯ COMMANDS π₯
semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context mappings. slay π
semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a process type is permissive. periodt β¨
semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove policy modules. the way that module management ate π
semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans. boolean bestie π
system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux policy settings. yes bestie, there's a GUI for when you want the clicky experience π±οΈβ¨
