This interface allows a client to register a new Wayland connection to
the compositor and attach a security context to it.
This is intended to be used by sandboxes. Sandbox engines attach a
security context to all connections coming from inside the sandbox. The
compositor can then restrict the features that the sandboxed connections
can use.
Compositors should forbid nesting multiple security contexts by not
exposing wp_security_context_manager_v1 global to clients with a security
context attached, or by sending the nested protocol error. Nested
security contexts are dangerous because they can potentially allow
privilege escalation of a sandboxed client.
Warning! The protocol described in this file is currently in the testing
phase. Backward compatible changes may be added together with the
corresponding interface version bump. Backward incompatible changes can
only be done by creating a new major version of the extension.
Destroy the manager. This doesn't destroy objects created with the
manager.
Creates a new security context with a socket listening FD.
The compositor will accept new client connections on listen_fd.
listen_fd must be ready to accept new connections when this request is
sent by the client. In other words, the client must call bind(2) and
listen(2) before sending the FD.
close_fd is a FD closed by the client when the compositor should stop
accepting new connections on listen_fd.
The compositor must continue to accept connections on listen_fd when
the Wayland client which created the security context disconnects.
After sending this request, closing listen_fd and close_fd remains the
only valid operation on them.
The security context allows a client to register a new client and attach
security context metadata to the connections.
When both are set, the combination of the application ID and the sandbox
engine must uniquely identify an application. The same application ID
will be used across instances (e.g. if the application is restarted, or
if the application is started multiple times).
When both are set, the combination of the instance ID and the sandbox
engine must uniquely identify a running instance of an application.
Destroy the security context object.
Attach a unique sandbox engine name to the security context. The name
should follow the reverse-DNS style (e.g. "org.flatpak").
A list of well-known engines is maintained at:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/blob/main/staging/security-context/engines.md
It is a protocol error to call this request twice. The already_set
error is sent in this case.
Attach an application ID to the security context.
The application ID is an opaque, sandbox-specific identifier for an
application. See the well-known engines document for more details:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/blob/main/staging/security-context/engines.md
The compositor may use the application ID to group clients belonging to
the same security context application.
Whether this request is optional or not depends on the sandbox engine used.
It is a protocol error to call this request twice. The already_set
error is sent in this case.
Attach an instance ID to the security context.
The instance ID is an opaque, sandbox-specific identifier for a running
instance of an application. See the well-known engines document for
more details:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/blob/main/staging/security-context/engines.md
Whether this request is optional or not depends on the sandbox engine used.
It is a protocol error to call this request twice. The already_set
error is sent in this case.
Atomically register the new client and attach the security context
metadata.
If the provided metadata is inconsistent or does not match with out of
band metadata (see
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/blob/main/staging/security-context/engines.md),
the invalid_metadata error may be sent eventually.
It's a protocol error to send any request other than "destroy" after
this request. In this case, the already_used error is sent.
