Subject: I would like to suggest a new file attribute like usersafe.
Date: Wed, 24 Mar 2004 16:42:50 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <406200DA.4010102@redhat.com> (raw)

One of the things I have thinking about at is the ability to globally 
say a context can read these files.
For instance allowing the slocate policy to read files.  Rather then 
trying to figure out all of the file types
that are safe to read and listing them in policy, if we had a attribute, 
similar to sysadminfile,  that indicated
it was safe for users access we could have a simpler rules.

usersafefile?



So as policy developers decide to add a new context for XYZ app, they 
can add attribute that will allow
users access.

r_dir_file($1_locate_s, usersafefile)
