6 mirrormanager_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the mirror‐
7 manager processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the mirrormanager processes via flexi‐
11 ble mandatory access control.
12
13 The mirrormanager processes execute with the mirrormanager_t SELinux
14 type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing
15 the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep mirrormanager_t
20
21
22
24 The mirrormanager_t SELinux type can be entered via the mirrorman‐
25 ager_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the mirrormanager_t domain are the
28 following:
29
30 /usr/share/mirrormanager/server/mirrormanager
31
33 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
34 system
35
36 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
37
38 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
39 mirrormanager policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 mirrormanager processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for mirrormanager:
43
44 mirrormanager_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a mirrormanager_t can be used to make the
47 process type mirrormanager_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access
48 to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
49 still generated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. mirror‐
54 manager policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run mirrormanager with the
56 tightest access possible.
57
58
59
60 If you want to allow all domains to use other domains file descriptors,
61 you must turn on the allow_domain_fd_use boolean. Enabled by default.
62
63 setsebool -P allow_domain_fd_use 1
64
65
66
67 If you want to allow sysadm to debug or ptrace all processes, you must
68 turn on the allow_ptrace boolean. Disabled by default.
69
70 setsebool -P allow_ptrace 1
71
72
73
74 If you want to allow all domains to have the kernel load modules, you
75 must turn on the domain_kernel_load_modules boolean. Disabled by
76 default.
77
78 setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1
79
80
81
82 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
83 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
84
85 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
86
87
88
89 If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn
90 on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default.
91
92 setsebool -P global_ssp 1
93
94
95
97 The SELinux process type mirrormanager_t can manage files labeled with
98 the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for
99 these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC per‐
100 missions.
101
102 initrc_tmp_t

104
105 mirrormanager_log_t
106
107 /var/log/mirrormanager(/.*)?
108
109 mirrormanager_var_lib_t
110
111 /var/lib/mirrormanager(/.*)?
112
113 mirrormanager_var_run_t

115 /var/run/mirrormanager(/.*)?

142 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
143 type.
144
145 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
146
147 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
148 SELinux mirrormanager policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
149 their mirrormanager processes in as secure a method as possible.
150
151 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
152
153 SELinux defines the file context types for the mirrormanager, if you
154 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
155 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
156 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
157
158 semanage fcontext -a -t mirrormanager_var_run_t '/srv/mymirrorman‐
159 ager_content(/.*)?'
160 restorecon -R -v /srv/mymirrormanager_content
161
162 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
163 match multiple files.
164
165 The following file types are defined for mirrormanager:
166
167
168
169 mirrormanager_exec_t
170
171 - Set files with the mirrormanager_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
172 tion an executable to the mirrormanager_t domain.
173
174
175
176 mirrormanager_log_t
177
178 - Set files with the mirrormanager_log_t type, if you want to treat the
179 data as mirrormanager log data, usually stored under the /var/log
180 directory.
181
182
183
184 mirrormanager_var_lib_t
185
186 - Set files with the mirrormanager_var_lib_t type, if you want to store
187 the mirrormanager files under the /var/lib directory.
188
189
190
191 mirrormanager_var_run_t
192
193 - Set files with the mirrormanager_var_run_t type, if you want to store
194 the mirrormanager files under the /run or /var/run directory.
195
196
197
198 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
199 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
200 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
201 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
202
203
205 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
206 mappings.
207
208 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
209 process type is permissive.
210
211 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
212 icy modules.
213
214 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
215
216
217 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
218 icy settings.
