NAME

6       pads_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the pads processes
7

DESCRIPTION

9       Security-Enhanced  Linux secures the pads processes via flexible manda‐
10       tory access control.
11
12       The pads processes execute with the pads_t SELinux type. You can  check
13       if  you  have  these processes running by executing the ps command with
14       the -Z qualifier.
15
16       For example:
17
18       ps -eZ | grep pads_t
19
20
21

ENTRYPOINTS

23       The pads_t SELinux type can be entered via the pads_exec_t file type.
24
25       The default entrypoint paths for the pads_t domain are the following:
26
27       /usr/bin/pads
28

PROCESS TYPES

30       SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
31       system
32
33       You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
34
35       Policy  governs  the  access confined processes have to files.  SELinux
36       pads policy is very flexible allowing users to setup  their  pads  pro‐
37       cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39       The following process types are defined for pads:
40
41       pads_t
42
43       Note:  semanage  permissive  -a  pads_t can be used to make the process
44       type pads_t permissive. SELinux does  not  deny  access  to  permissive
45       process  types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
46       ated.
47
48

BOOLEANS

50       SELinux policy is customizable based on least  access  required.   pads
51       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52       manipulate the policy and run pads with the tightest access possible.

MANAGED FILES

145       The SELinux process type pads_t can manage files labeled with the  fol‐
146       lowing  file  types.   The paths listed are the default paths for these
147       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

FILE CONTEXTS

202       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
203       type.
204
205       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
206
207       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these files.
208       SELinux pads policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their pads
209       processes in as secure a method as possible.
210
211       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
212
213       SELinux  defines  the file context types for the pads, if you wanted to
214       store files with these types in a diffent paths, you  need  to  execute
215       the  semanage  command  to  sepecify  alternate  labeling  and then use
216       restorecon to put the labels on disk.
217
218       semanage fcontext -a -t pads_var_run_t '/srv/mypads_content(/.*)?'
219       restorecon -R -v /srv/mypads_content
220
221       Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions  to  specify  labels  that
222       match multiple files.
223
224       The following file types are defined for pads:
225
226
227
228       pads_config_t
229
230       - Set files with the pads_config_t type, if you want to treat the files
231       as pads configuration data, usually stored under the /etc directory.
232
233
234       Paths:
235            /etc/pads.conf,    /etc/pads-assets.csv,    /etc/pads-ether-codes,
236            /etc/pads-signature-list
237
238
239       pads_exec_t
240
241       -  Set  files  with  the pads_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
242       executable to the pads_t domain.
243
244
245
246       pads_initrc_exec_t
247
248       - Set files with the pads_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transition
249       an executable to the pads_initrc_t domain.
250
251
252
253       pads_var_run_t
254
255       - Set files with the pads_var_run_t type, if you want to store the pads
256       files under the /run or /var/run directory.
257
258
259
260       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
261       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
262       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
263       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
264
265

COMMANDS

267       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
268       mappings.
269
270       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
271       process type is permissive.
272
273       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
274       icy modules.
275
276       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
277
278
279       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
280       icy settings.
