6 spamd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the spamd processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the spamd processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11
12 The spamd processes execute with the spamd_t SELinux type. You can
13 check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command
14 with the -Z qualifier.
15
16 For example:
17
18 ps -eZ | grep spamd_t
19
20
21
23 The spamd_t SELinux type can be entered via the spamd_exec_t file type.
24
25 The default entrypoint paths for the spamd_t domain are the following:
26
27 /usr/bin/spamd, /usr/sbin/spamd, /usr/bin/pyzord, /usr/sbin/spampd,
28 /usr/bin/mimedefang, /usr/bin/mimedefang-multiplexor,
29 /usr/libexec/mimedefang-wrapper
30
32 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
33 system
34
35 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
36
37 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
38 spamd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their spamd pro‐
39 cesses in as secure a method as possible.
40
41 The following process types are defined for spamd:
42
43 spamd_update_t, spamd_t
44
45 Note: semanage permissive -a spamd_t can be used to make the process
46 type spamd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
47 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
48 ated.
49
50
52 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. spamd
53 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
54 manipulate the policy and run spamd with the tightest access possible.

204 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
205
206 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
207 command:
208
209 semanage port -l
210
211
212 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
213 SELinux spamd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
214 spamd processes in as secure a method as possible.
215
216 The following port types are defined for spamd:
217
218
219 spamd_port_t
220
221
222
223 Default Defined Ports:
224 tcp 783,10026,10027
225
227 The SELinux process type spamd_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
228 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
229 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

361 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
362 type.
363
364 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
365
366 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
367 SELinux spamd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
368 spamd processes in as secure a method as possible.
369
370 EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
371
372
373 spamd policy stores data with multiple different file context types
374 under the /var/lib/spamassassin directory. If you would like to store
375 the data in a different directory you can use the semanage command to
376 create an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this data under
377 the /srv dirctory you would execute the following command:
378
379 semanage fcontext -a -e /var/lib/spamassassin /srv/spamassassin
380 restorecon -R -v /srv/spamassassin
381
382 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
383
384 SELinux defines the file context types for the spamd, if you wanted to
385 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
386 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
387 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
388
389 semanage fcontext -a -t spamd_var_run_t '/srv/myspamd_content(/.*)?'
390 restorecon -R -v /srv/myspamd_content
391
392 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
393 match multiple files.
394
395 The following file types are defined for spamd:
396
397
398
399 spamd_compiled_t
400
401 - Set files with the spamd_compiled_t type, if you want to treat the
402 files as spamd compiled data.
403
404
405
406 spamd_etc_t
407
408 - Set files with the spamd_etc_t type, if you want to store spamd files
409 in the /etc directories.
410
411

414
415
416 spamd_exec_t

424 /usr/sbin/spampd, /usr/bin/mimedefang, /usr/bin/mimedefang-multi‐
425 plexor, /usr/libexec/mimedefang-wrapper
426
427
428 spamd_initrc_exec_t
429
430 - Set files with the spamd_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
431 tion an executable to the spamd_initrc_t domain.
432
433
434 Paths:
435 /etc/rc.d/init.d/mimedefang.*, /etc/rc.d/init.d/spamd,
436 /etc/rc.d/init.d/spampd, /etc/rc.d/init.d/pyzord
437
438
439 spamd_log_t
440
441 - Set files with the spamd_log_t type, if you want to treat the data as
442 spamd log data, usually stored under the /var/log directory.
443
444
445 Paths:
446 /var/log/spamd.log.*, /var/log/mimedefang.*,
447 /var/log/pyzord.log.*, /var/log/razor-agent.log.*
448
449
450 spamd_spool_t

458 massassin(/.*)?
459
460

464 porary files in the /tmp directories.
465
466
467
468 spamd_update_exec_t
469
470 - Set files with the spamd_update_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐

494 /var/spool/MD-Quarantine(/.*)?
495
496
497 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
498 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
499 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
500 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
501
502
504 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
505 mappings.
506
507 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
508 process type is permissive.
509
510 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
511 icy modules.
512
513 semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
514
515 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
516
517
518 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
519 icy settings.
