6 mirrormanager_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the mirror‐
7 manager processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the mirrormanager processes via flexi‐
11 ble mandatory access control.
12
13 The mirrormanager processes execute with the mirrormanager_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 mirrormanager_t
20
21
22
24 The mirrormanager_t SELinux type can be entered via the mirrorman‐
25 ager_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the mirrormanager_t domain are the
28 following:
29
30 /usr/share/mirrormanager/server/mirrormanager(/.*)?
31
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 mirrormanager policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 mirrormanager processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for mirrormanager:
43
44 mirrormanager_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a mirrormanager_t can be used to make the
47 process type mirrormanager_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access
48 to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
49 still generated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. mirror‐
54 manager policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run mirrormanager with the
56 tightest 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
65
66
68 The SELinux process type mirrormanager_t can manage files labeled with
69 the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for
70 these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC per‐
71 missions.
72
73 mirrormanager_log_t
74
75 /var/log/mirrormanager(/.*)?
76
77 mirrormanager_var_lib_t
78
79 /var/lib/mirrormanager(/.*)?
80
81 mirrormanager_var_run_t
82
83 /var/run/mirrormanager(/.*)?
84
85
87 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
88 type.
89
90 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
91
92 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
93 SELinux mirrormanager policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
94 their mirrormanager processes in as secure a method as possible.
95
96 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
97
98 SELinux defines the file context types for the mirrormanager, if you
99 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
100 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
101 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
102
103 semanage fcontext -a -t mirrormanager_var_run_t '/srv/mymirrorman‐
104 ager_content(/.*)?'
105 restorecon -R -v /srv/mymirrormanager_content
106
107 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
108 match multiple files.
109
110 The following file types are defined for mirrormanager:
111
112
113
114 mirrormanager_exec_t
115
116 - Set files with the mirrormanager_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
117 tion an executable to the mirrormanager_t domain.
118
119
120
121 mirrormanager_log_t
122
123 - Set files with the mirrormanager_log_t type, if you want to treat the
124 data as mirrormanager log data, usually stored under the /var/log
125 directory.
126
127
128
129 mirrormanager_var_lib_t
130
131 - Set files with the mirrormanager_var_lib_t type, if you want to store
132 the mirrormanager files under the /var/lib directory.
133
134
135
136 mirrormanager_var_run_t
137
138 - Set files with the mirrormanager_var_run_t type, if you want to store
139 the mirrormanager files under the /run or /var/run directory.
140
141
142
143 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
144 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
145 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
146 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
147
148
150 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
151 mappings.
152
153 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
154 process type is permissive.
155
156 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
157 icy modules.
158
159 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
160
161
162 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
163 icy settings.
