NAME

6       auditctl_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the auditctl pro‐
7       cesses
8

DESCRIPTION

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

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The auditctl_t SELinux type can be entered via the auditctl_exec_t file
25       type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the auditctl_t domain are the  follow‐
28       ing:
29
30       /sbin/auditctl, /usr/sbin/auditctl
31

PROCESS TYPES

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       auditctl policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their auditctl
40       processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42       The following process types are defined for auditctl:
43
44       auditctl_t
45
46       Note: semanage permissive -a auditctl_t can be used to make the process
47       type  auditctl_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
48       process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still  gener‐
49       ated.
50
51

BOOLEANS

53       SELinux   policy  is  customizable  based  on  least  access  required.
54       auditctl policy is extremely flexible and  has  several  booleans  that
55       allow  you  to manipulate the policy and run auditctl with the tightest
56       access possible.
57
58
59
60       If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
61       on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
62
63       setsebool -P fips_mode 1
64

66

FILE CONTEXTS

68       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
69       type.
70
71       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
72
73       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  files.
74       SELinux  auditctl policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
75       auditctl processes in as secure a method as possible.
76
77       The following file types are defined for auditctl:
78
79
80
81       auditctl_exec_t
82
83       - Set files with the auditctl_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
84       executable to the auditctl_t domain.
85
86
87       Paths:
88            /sbin/auditctl, /usr/sbin/auditctl
89
90
91       Note:  File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
92       If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use  the
93       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
94       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
95
96

COMMANDS

98       semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default  file  context
99       mappings.
100
101       semanage  permissive  can  also  be used to manipulate whether or not a
102       process type is permissive.
103
104       semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove  pol‐
105       icy modules.
106
107       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
108
109
110       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
111       icy settings.
