NAME

6       postfix_qmgr_selinux  -  Security  Enhanced  Linux Policy for the post‐
7       fix_qmgr processes
8

DESCRIPTION

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

22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The   postfix_qmgr_t   SELinux  type  can  be  entered  via  the  post‐
25       fix_qmgr_exec_t file type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the postfix_qmgr_t domain are the fol‐
28       lowing:
29
30       /usr/libexec/postfix/(n)?qmgr
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       postfix_qmgr  policy  is  very  flexible  allowing users to setup their
40       postfix_qmgr processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42       The following process types are defined for postfix_qmgr:
43
44       postfix_qmgr_t
45
46       Note: semanage permissive -a postfix_qmgr_t can be  used  to  make  the
47       process type postfix_qmgr_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
48       permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux  denials)  messages  are
49       still generated.

51

BOOLEANS

53       SELinux  policy  is customizable based on least access required.  post‐
54       fix_qmgr policy is extremely flexible and  has  several  booleans  that
55       allow you to manipulate the policy and run postfix_qmgr with the tight‐
56       est access possible.
57
58
59
60       If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from
61       ldap  rather  then  using  a  sssd server, you must turn on the authlo‐
62       gin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.
63
64       setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
65
66
67
68       If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
69       on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
70
71       setsebool -P fips_mode 1
72
73
74
75       If  you  want  to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
76       must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
77
78       setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
79
80
81
82       If you want to allow system to run with  NIS,  you  must  turn  on  the
83       nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
84
85       setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
86
87
88
89       If  you  want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
90       you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Disabled by default.
91
92       setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1

MANAGED FILES

97       The SELinux process type postfix_qmgr_t can manage files  labeled  with
98       the  following  file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for
99       these file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have  DAC  per‐
100       missions.
101
102       anon_inodefs_t
103
104
105       postfix_qmgr_tmp_t
106
107
108       postfix_spool_t
109
110            /var/spool/postfix.*
111            /var/spool/postfix/defer(/.*)?
112            /var/spool/postfix/flush(/.*)?
113            /var/spool/postfix/deferred(/.*)?
114            /var/spool/postfix/maildrop(/.*)?
115
116       postfix_var_run_t
117
118            /var/spool/postfix/pid/.*

FILE CONTEXTS

122       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
123       type.
124
125       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
126
127       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  files.
128       SELinux  postfix_qmgr  policy  is very flexible allowing users to setup
129       their postfix_qmgr processes in as secure a method as possible.
130
131       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
132
133       SELinux defines the file context types for  the  postfix_qmgr,  if  you
134       wanted  to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
135       execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate  labeling  and  then
136       use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
137
138       semanage  fcontext  -a  -t postfix_qmgr_tmp_t '/srv/mypostfix_qmgr_con‐
139       tent(/.*)?'
140       restorecon -R -v /srv/mypostfix_qmgr_content
141
142       Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions  to  specify  labels  that
143       match multiple files.
144
145       The following file types are defined for postfix_qmgr:
146
147
148
149       postfix_qmgr_exec_t
150
151       -  Set  files with the postfix_qmgr_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
152       tion an executable to the postfix_qmgr_t domain.
153
154
155
156       postfix_qmgr_tmp_t
157
158       - Set files with the postfix_qmgr_tmp_t type,  if  you  want  to  store
159       postfix qmgr temporary files in the /tmp directories.
160
161
162
163       Note:  File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
164       If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use  the
165       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
166       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.

168

COMMANDS

170       semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default  file  context
171       mappings.
172
173       semanage  permissive  can  also  be used to manipulate whether or not a
174       process type is permissive.
175
176       semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove  pol‐
177       icy modules.
178
179       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
180
181
182       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
183       icy settings.
