NAME

6       boinc_project_selinux   -   Security  Enhanced  Linux  Policy  for  the
7       boinc_project processes
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the boinc_project processes via  flexi‐
11       ble mandatory access control.
12
13       The  boinc_project  processes  execute with the boinc_project_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 boinc_project_t

22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The   boinc_project_t   SELinux   type   can   be   entered   via   the
25       boinc_project_var_lib_t file type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the  boinc_project_t  domain  are  the
28       following:
29
30       /var/lib/boinc/slots(/.*)?, /var/lib/boinc/projects(/.*)?
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       boinc_project  policy  is  very  flexible allowing users to setup their
40       boinc_project processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42       The following process types are defined for boinc_project:
43
44       boinc_project_t
45
46       Note: semanage permissive -a boinc_project_t can be used  to  make  the
47       process  type  boinc_project_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access
48       to 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.
54       boinc_project policy is extremely flexible  and  has  several  booleans
55       that  allow you to manipulate the policy and run boinc_project with the
56       tightest access possible.
57
58
59
60       If you want to deny user domains applications to map a memory region as
61       both  executable  and  writable,  this  is dangerous and the executable
62       should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the deny_execmem bool‐
63       ean. Enabled by default.
64
65       setsebool -P deny_execmem 1
66
67
68
69       If  you  want  to control the ability to mmap a low area of the address
70       space, as configured by /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr, you  must  turn  on
71       the mmap_low_allowed boolean. Disabled by default.
72
73       setsebool -P mmap_low_allowed 1
74
75
76
77       If  you  want  to  disable  kernel module loading, you must turn on the
78       secure_mode_insmod boolean. Enabled by default.
79
80       setsebool -P secure_mode_insmod 1
81
82
83
84       If you want to allow unconfined executables to make their  heap  memory
85       executable.   Doing  this  is  a  really bad idea. Probably indicates a
86       badly coded executable, but could indicate an attack.  This  executable
87       should   be   reported  in  bugzilla,  you  must  turn  on  the  selin‐
88       uxuser_execheap boolean. Disabled by default.
89
90       setsebool -P selinuxuser_execheap 1

MANAGED FILES

95       The SELinux process type boinc_project_t can manage files labeled  with
96       the  following  file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for
97       these file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have  DAC  per‐
98       missions.
99
100       file_type
101
102            all files on the system
103
104

FILE CONTEXTS

106       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
107       type.
108
109       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
110
111       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  files.
112       SELinux  boinc_project  policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
113       their boinc_project processes in as secure a method as possible.
114
115       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
116
117       SELinux defines the file context types for the  boinc_project,  if  you
118       wanted  to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
119       execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate  labeling  and  then
120       use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
121
122       semanage       fcontext       -a       -t       boinc_project_var_lib_t
123       '/srv/myboinc_project_content(/.*)?'
124       restorecon -R -v /srv/myboinc_project_content
125
126       Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions  to  specify  labels  that
127       match multiple files.
128
129       The following file types are defined for boinc_project:
130
131
132
133       boinc_project_tmp_t
134
135       -  Set  files  with  the boinc_project_tmp_t type, if you want to store
136       boinc project temporary files in the /tmp directories.
137
138
139
140       boinc_project_var_lib_t
141
142       - Set files with the boinc_project_var_lib_t type, if you want to store
143       the boinc project files under the /var/lib directory.
144
145
146       Paths:
147            /var/lib/boinc/slots(/.*)?, /var/lib/boinc/projects(/.*)?
148
149
150       Note:  File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
151       If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use  the
152       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
153       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
154
155

COMMANDS

157       semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default  file  context
158       mappings.
159
160       semanage  permissive  can  also  be used to manipulate whether or not a
161       process type is permissive.
162
163       semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove  pol‐
164       icy modules.
165
166       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
167
168
169       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
170       icy settings.
