ueventd.te: auditallow device:chr_file
By default, files created in /dev are labeled with the "device" label unless a different label has been assigned. The direct use of this generic label is discouraged (and in many cases neverallowed) because rules involving this label tend to be overly broad and permissive. Today, generically labeled character devices can only be opened, read, or written to by init and ueventd. $ sesearch --allow -t device -c chr_file -p open,read,write out/target/product/marlin/root/sepolicy allow init device:chr_file { setattr read lock getattr write ioctl open append }; allow ueventd device:chr_file { read lock getattr write ioctl open append }; this is enforced by the following SELinux neverallow rule (compile time assertion + CTS test): neverallow { domain -init -ueventd } device:chr_file { open read write }; Start auditallowing ueventd access to /dev character device files with the default SELinux label. This doesn't appear to be used, but let's prove it. While ueventd is expected to create files in /dev, it has no need to open most of the files it creates. Note, however, that because ueventd has mknod + setfscreate permissions, a malicious or compromised ueventd can always create a device node under an incorrect label, and gain access that way. The goal of this change is to prove that no process other than init are accessing generically labeled files in /dev. While I'm here, tighten up the compile time assertion for device:chr_file to include more permissions. Test: policy compiles + device boots with no granted messages.
