Hi all i'm using the Fedora 13 operating system with shipped SELinux policy. I want to add a basic protection for regular users by using the UBAC feature and letting them to log on the system with the confined domain 'user_t'. A problem that i have found when using the policy with this feature enabled is that root logs on the system with user 'unconfined_u' or 'root' and files created or updated after doing an administrative task cannot be accessed by regular users. In order to have the system working i have to execute root processes that make changes on the system with user 'system_u'. One solution to overcome this issue may be to add an exception to the policy, as done for the 'system_u' user, so that UBAC will be applied only to SELinux users tied to regular users, living other users 'sysadm_u', 'staff_u', 'root', 'unconfined_u' unprotected. Does this is the right way to modify the policy in order to enforce the protection required or there are other alternatives? Thanks in advance for replies.
