Policy developers can set a default_range default to glblub and computed contexts will be the intersection of the ranges of the source and target contexts. This can be used by MLS userspace object managers to find the range of clearances that two contexts have in common. An example usage is computing a transition between the network context and the context of a user logging into an MLS application. For example, one can add a default with this cil: (defaultrange db_table glblub) or in te (base module only): default_range db_table glblub; and then test using the compute_create utility: $ ./compute_create system_u:system_r:kernel_t:s0:c1,c2,c5-s0:c1.c20 system_u:system_r:kernel_t:s0:c0.c20-s0:c0.c36 db_table system_u:object_r:kernel_t:s0:c1,c2,c5-s0:c1.c20 Some example range transitions are: User Permitted Range | Network Device Label | Computed Label ---------------------|----------------------|---------------- s0-s1:c0.c12 | s0 | s0 s0-s1:c0.c12 | s0-s1:c0.c1023 | s0-s1:c0.c12 s0-s4:c0.c512 | s1-s1:c0.c1023 | s1-s1:c0.c512 s0-s15:c0,c2 | s4-s6:c0.c128 | s4-s6:c0,c2 s0-s4 | s2-s6 | s2-s4 s0-s4 | s5-s8 | INVALID s5-s8 | s0-s4 | INVALID Signed-off-by: Joshua Brindle <joshua.brindle@crunchydata.com>

Default Object Statements
These rules allow a default user, role, type and/or range to be used when computing a context for a new object. These require policy version 27 or 28 with kernels 3.5 or greater.
defaultuser
Allows the default user to be taken from the source or target context when computing a new context for the object class
identifier. Requires policy version 27.
Statement definition:
(defaultuser class_id default)
Where:
|
The |
|
A single previously declared |
|
A keyword of either |
Example:
When creating new binder
, property_service
, zygote
or memprotect
objects the user
component of the new security context will be taken from the source
context:
(class binder (impersonate call set_context_mgr transfer receive))
(class property_service (set))
(class zygote (specifyids specifyrlimits specifycapabilities specifyinvokewith specifyseinfo))
(class memprotect (mmap_zero))
(classmap android_classes (android))
(classmapping android_classes android (binder (all)))
(classmapping android_classes android (property_service (set)))
(classmapping android_classes android (zygote (not (specifycapabilities))))
(defaultuser (android_classes memprotect) source)
; Will produce the following in the binary policy file:
;; default_user binder source;
;; default_user zygote source;
;; default_user property_service source;
;; default_user memprotect source;
defaultrole
Allows the default role to be taken from the source or target context when computing a new context for the object class
identifier. Requires policy version 27.
(defaultrole class_id default)
Where:
|
The |
|
A single previously declared |
|
A keyword of either |
Example:
When creating new binder
, property_service
or zygote
objects the role
component of the new security context will be taken from the target
context:
(class binder (impersonate call set_context_mgr transfer receive))
(class property_service (set))
(class zygote (specifyids specifyrlimits specifycapabilities specifyinvokewith specifyseinfo))
(defaultrole (binder property_service zygote) target)
; Will produce the following in the binary policy file:
;; default_role binder target;
;; default_role zygote target;
;; default_role property_service target;
defaulttype
Allows the default type to be taken from the source or target context when computing a new context for the object class
identifier. Requires policy version 28.
Statement definition:
(defaulttype class_id default)
Where:
|
The |
|
A single previously declared |
|
A keyword of either |
Example:
When creating a new socket
object, the type
component of the new security context will be taken from the source
context:
(defaulttype socket source)
defaultrange
Allows the default level or range to be taken from the source, target, or both contexts when computing a new context for the object class
identifier. Requires policy version 27. glblub as the default requires policy version 32.
Statement definition:
(defaultrange class_id default <range>)
Where:
|
The |
|
A single previously declared |
|
A keyword of either |
|
A keyword of either |
Example:
When creating a new file
object, the appropriate range
component of the new security context will be taken from the target
context:
(defaultrange file target low_high)
MLS userspace object managers may need to compute the common parts of a range such that the object is created with the range common to the subject and containing object:
(defaultrange db_table glblub)
