NAME

6       tmpreaper_selinux  -  Security  Enhanced Linux Policy for the tmpreaper
7       processes
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the tmpreaper  processes  via  flexible
11       mandatory access control.
12
13       The  tmpreaper processes execute with the tmpreaper_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 tmpreaper_t
20
21
22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The  tmpreaper_t  SELinux  type can be entered via the tmpreaper_exec_t
25       file type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the tmpreaper_t domain are the follow‐
28       ing:
29
30       /usr/sbin/tmpwatch,   /usr/sbin/tmpreaper,   /etc/rc.d/init.d/mountall-
31       bootclean.sh, /etc/rc.d/init.d/mountnfs-bootclean.sh
32

PROCESS TYPES

34       SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
35       system
36
37       You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
38
39       Policy  governs  the  access confined processes have to files.  SELinux
40       tmpreaper policy  is  very  flexible  allowing  users  to  setup  their
41       tmpreaper processes in as secure a method as possible.
42
43       The following process types are defined for tmpreaper:
44
45       tmpreaper_t
46
47       Note:  semanage  permissive  -a  tmpreaper_t  can  be  used to make the
48       process type tmpreaper_t permissive. SELinux does not  deny  access  to
49       permissive  process  types,  but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
50       still generated.
51
52

BOOLEANS

54       SELinux  policy  is  customizable  based  on  least  access   required.
55       tmpreaper  policy  is  extremely flexible and has several booleans that
56       allow you to manipulate the policy and run tmpreaper with the  tightest
57       access possible.
58
59
60
61       If  you  want to determine whether tmpreaper can use cifs file systems,
62       you must turn on the tmpreaper_use_cifs boolean. Disabled by default.
63
64       setsebool -P tmpreaper_use_cifs 1
65
66
67
68       If you want to determine whether tmpreaper can use  nfs  file  systems,
69       you must turn on the tmpreaper_use_nfs boolean. Disabled by default.
70
71       setsebool -P tmpreaper_use_nfs 1
72
73
74
75       If  you  want to determine whether tmpreaper can use samba_share files,
76       you must turn on the tmpreaper_use_samba boolean. Disabled by default.
77
78       setsebool -P tmpreaper_use_samba 1
79
80
81
82       If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from
83       ldap  rather  then  using  a  sssd server, you must turn on the authlo‐
84       gin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.
85
86       setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
87
88
89
90       If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
91       on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
92
93       setsebool -P fips_mode 1
94
95
96
97       If  you  want  to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
98       must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
99
100       setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
101
102
103
104       If you want to allow system to run with  NIS,  you  must  turn  on  the
105       nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
106
107       setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
108
109
110
111       If  you  want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
112       you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Disabled by default.
113
114       setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
115
116
117

MANAGED FILES

119       The SELinux process type tmpreaper_t can manage files labeled with  the
120       following file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for these
121       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
122
123       antivirus_db_t
124
125            /var/amavis(/.*)?
126            /var/clamav(/.*)?

FILE CONTEXTS

160       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
161       type.
162
163       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
164
165       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these files.
166       SELinux tmpreaper policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
167       tmpreaper processes in as secure a method as possible.
168
169       The following file types are defined for tmpreaper:
170
171
172
173       tmpreaper_exec_t
174
175       -  Set  files with the tmpreaper_exec_t type, if you want to transition
176       an executable to the tmpreaper_t domain.
177
178
179       Paths:
180            /usr/sbin/tmpwatch,  /usr/sbin/tmpreaper,   /etc/rc.d/init.d/moun‐
181            tall-bootclean.sh, /etc/rc.d/init.d/mountnfs-bootclean.sh
182
183
184       Note:  File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
185       If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use  the
186       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
187       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
188
189

COMMANDS

191       semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default  file  context
192       mappings.
193
194       semanage  permissive  can  also  be used to manipulate whether or not a
195       process type is permissive.
196
197       semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove  pol‐
198       icy modules.
199
200       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
201
202
203       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
204       icy settings.
