I believe there is a audit rule requiring users to be able to list their
roles. Of course this only gets us part of the way.

Why does seusers need to be world readable? Also, I think we would want
to solve this more generally, e.g. file_contexts has a similar issue if
you want it to remain useable by ordinary users for restorecon.

But you likely don't want them to be able to list the roles of other
users without privilege.

Ok, so we definitely need it for file context.

libsemanage needs a saner way of setting the modes on the files it
installs. The installed files presently include the kernel policy file,
the file_contexts file, the homedir_template file, and the seusers file.
Options are:
- Create them world readable as far as DAC mode is concerned, but
restrict access via SELinux policy based on file contexts as desired.
That seems to be the situation prior to libsemanage, with targeted
policy allowing users to access them.
- Make the DAC mode configurable via semanage.conf. In this case, we
need to decide whether a single mode is sufficient for all of the files
or if we want separate modes for different files (e.g.
kernel-policy=0600, file-contexts=0644, seusers=0644).
Also, it occurs to me that libsemanage doesn't presently do anything
about setting file contexts for these files, so they always just inherit
the default (parent directory type or transition type if one is defined
in policy). I think that is currently ok since that is the current
labeling anyway for these files, but it could be a problem if we later
introduce distinct types for e.g. seusers. Likely should be doing a
matchpathcon() and setfscreatecon() when creating the new file (or
setfilecon prior to renaming it into place, as long as it is adequately
protected while within the sandbox).
Thoughts?

Patch attached adds a file-mode= optional setting to semanage.conf, with
the default being 0644 (the old defaults for these files prior to
libsemanage). semanage_copy_file() is changed to take a mode argument.
semanage_copy_dir() passes in the mode of the original file to preserve
mode on store files (which ends up staying as 0600 since they are
created that way separately). semanage_install_active() passes in the
configured file mode so that installed files use that mode. If we want
finer-grained protection of the installed files, we can either use
policy or we can add further more specific file modes to semanage.conf,
with the current file-mode setting being the default in the absence of a
more specific one. Look sane?

This still needs to be addressed.
