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 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 For example:
18 ps -eZ | grep mirrormanager_t
20
24 The mirrormanager_t SELinux type can be entered via the mirrorman‐
25 ager_exec_t file type.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the mirrormanager_t domain are the
28 following:
29 /usr/share/mirrormanager/server/mirrormanager(/.*)?
31
33 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
34 system
35 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
37 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 The following process types are defined for mirrormanager:
43 mirrormanager_t
45 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
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 If you want to deny any process from ptracing or debugging any other
61 processes, you must turn on the deny_ptrace boolean. Enabled by
62 default.
63 setsebool -P deny_ptrace 1
65 If you want to allow any process to mmap any file on system with
69 attribute file_type, you must turn on the domain_can_mmap_files bool‐
70 ean. Enabled by default.
71 setsebool -P domain_can_mmap_files 1
73 If you want to allow all domains write to kmsg_device, while kernel is
77 executed with systemd.log_target=kmsg parameter, you must turn on the
78 domain_can_write_kmsg boolean. Disabled by default.
79 setsebool -P domain_can_write_kmsg 1
81 If you want to allow all domains to use other domains file descriptors,
85 you must turn on the domain_fd_use boolean. Enabled by default.
86 setsebool -P domain_fd_use 1
88 If you want to allow all domains to have the kernel load modules, you
92 must turn on the domain_kernel_load_modules boolean. Disabled by
93 default.
94 setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1
96 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
100 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
101 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
103 If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn
107 on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default.
108 setsebool -P global_ssp 1

114 The SELinux process type mirrormanager_t can manage files labeled with
115 the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for
116 these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC per‐
117 missions.
118 mirrormanager_log_t
120 /var/log/mirrormanager(/.*)?
122 mirrormanager_var_lib_t
124 /var/lib/mirrormanager(/.*)?
126 mirrormanager_var_run_t
128 /var/run/mirrormanager(/.*)?
130
133 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
134 type.
135 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
137 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
139 SELinux mirrormanager policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
140 their mirrormanager processes in as secure a method as possible.
141 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
143 SELinux defines the file context types for the mirrormanager, if you
145 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
146 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
147 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
148 semanage fcontext -a -t mirrormanager_var_run_t '/srv/mymirrorman‐
150 ager_content(/.*)?'
151 restorecon -R -v /srv/mymirrormanager_content
152 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
154 match multiple files.
155 The following file types are defined for mirrormanager:
157 mirrormanager_exec_t
161 - Set files with the mirrormanager_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
163 tion an executable to the mirrormanager_t domain.
164 mirrormanager_log_t
168 - Set files with the mirrormanager_log_t type, if you want to treat the
170 data as mirrormanager log data, usually stored under the /var/log
171 directory.
172 mirrormanager_var_lib_t
176 - Set files with the mirrormanager_var_lib_t type, if you want to store
178 the mirrormanager files under the /var/lib directory.
179 mirrormanager_var_run_t
183 - Set files with the mirrormanager_var_run_t type, if you want to store
185 the mirrormanager files under the /run or /var/run directory.
186 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
190 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
191 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
192 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
193
196 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
197 mappings.
198 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
200 process type is permissive.
201 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
203 icy modules.
204 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
206 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
209 icy settings.
