💖 SELinux Policy loadkeys — loadkeys_selinux(8) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the loadkeys_selinux(8) manual page. This is the whole vibe for the SELinux policy that wraps around the loadkeys processes. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

loadkeys_selinux — the Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the loadkeys processes. periodt.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Security-Enhanced Linux secures the loadkeys processes via flexible mandatory access control. iconic behavior.

The loadkeys processes execute with the loadkeys_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 loadkeys_t

🦋 ENTRYPOINTS 🦋

The loadkeys_t SELinux type can be entered via the loadkeys_exec_t file type.

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

• /usr/bin/unikeys
• /usr/bin/loadkeys

👑 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 ps.

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

The following process types are defined for loadkeys:

• loadkeys_t

Note: semanage permissive -a loadkeys_t can be used to make the process type loadkeys_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. loadkeys policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run loadkeys with the tightest access possible.

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

🌈 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. SELinux loadkeys policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their loadkeys processes in as secure a method as possible.

🎀 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT 🎀

SELinux defines the file context types for loadkeys. 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 loadkeys_exec_t '/srv/loadkeys/content(/.*)?'
restorecon -R -v /srv/myloadkeys_content

Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files. 🧚

The following file types are defined for loadkeys:

• loadkeys_exec_t — Set files with the loadkeys_exec_t type, if you want to transition an executable to the loadkeys_t domain.
  • Paths: /usr/bin/unikeys, /usr/bin/loadkeys

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 boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans.
• system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux policy settings.
