NAME

6       setkey_selinux  -  Security  Enhanced  Linux Policy for the setkey pro‐
7       cesses
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux  secures  the  setkey  processes  via  flexible
11       mandatory access control.
12
13       The  setkey  processes  execute with the setkey_t SELinux type. You can
14       check if you have these processes running by executing the  ps  command
15       with the -Z qualifier.
16
17       For example:
18
19       ps -eZ | grep setkey_t
20
21
22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The  setkey_t  SELinux  type  can be entered via the setkey_exec_t file
25       type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the setkey_t domain are the following:
28
29       /sbin/setkey, /usr/sbin/setkey
30

PROCESS TYPES

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       setkey policy is very flexible allowing users  to  setup  their  setkey
39       processes in as secure a method as possible.
40
41       The following process types are defined for setkey:
42
43       setkey_t
44
45       Note:  semanage  permissive -a setkey_t can be used to make the process
46       type setkey_t permissive. SELinux does not deny  access  to  permissive
47       process  types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
48       ated.

BOOLEANS

52       SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.   setkey
53       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
54       manipulate the policy and run setkey with the tightest access possible.
55
56
57
58       If you want to allow all daemons the ability to  read/write  terminals,
59       you must turn on the daemons_use_tty boolean. Disabled by default.
60
61       setsebool -P daemons_use_tty 1
62
63
64
65       If  you  want  to deny any process from ptracing or debugging any other
66       processes, you  must  turn  on  the  deny_ptrace  boolean.  Enabled  by
67       default.
68
69       setsebool -P deny_ptrace 1
70
71
72
73       If  you  want  to  allow  any  process  to mmap any file on system with
74       attribute file_type, you must turn on the  domain_can_mmap_files  bool‐
75       ean. Enabled by default.
76
77       setsebool -P domain_can_mmap_files 1
78
79
80
81       If  you want to allow all domains write to kmsg_device, while kernel is
82       executed with systemd.log_target=kmsg parameter, you must turn  on  the
83       domain_can_write_kmsg boolean. Disabled by default.
84
85       setsebool -P domain_can_write_kmsg 1
86
87
88
89       If you want to allow all domains to use other domains file descriptors,
90       you must turn on the domain_fd_use boolean. Enabled by default.
91
92       setsebool -P domain_fd_use 1
93
94
95
96       If you want to allow all domains to have the kernel load  modules,  you
97       must  turn  on  the  domain_kernel_load_modules  boolean.  Disabled  by
98       default.
99
100       setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1
101
102
103
104       If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
105       on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
106
107       setsebool -P fips_mode 1
108
109
110
111       If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn
112       on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default.
113
114       setsebool -P global_ssp 1
115
116
117

FILE CONTEXTS

119       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
120       type.
121
122       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
123
124       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these files.
125       SELinux setkey policy is very flexible allowing users  to  setup  their
126       setkey processes in as secure a method as possible.
127
128       The following file types are defined for setkey:
129
130
131
132       setkey_exec_t
133
134       -  Set  files with the setkey_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
135       executable to the setkey_t domain.
136
137
138       Paths:
139            /sbin/setkey, /usr/sbin/setkey
140
141
142       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
143       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
144       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
145       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
146
147

COMMANDS

149       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
150       mappings.
151
152       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
153       process type is permissive.
154
155       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
156       icy modules.
157
158       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
159
160
161       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
162       icy settings.
