CyanogenMod to incorporate SELinux

[Posted July 20, 2013 by corbet]

The CyanogenMod project has announced that it will be incorporating the work of the SEAndroid project to add SELinux to its firmware images. "We will be working on this policy creation in parallel to Google’s own policies for Android, which we believe will be released with the Android 4.3 source; effectively getting us ahead of the eventual 4.3 source release." For now, it will be running in permissive mode, with the hope that users will submit logs to allow tweaking of the policies.
