NAME

6       setkey_selinux  -  Security  Enhanced  Linux Policy for the setkey pro‐
7       cesses
8

DESCRIPTION

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

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The  setkey_t  SELinux  type  can be entered via the setkey_exec_t file
25       type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the setkey_t domain are the following:
28
29       /sbin/setkey, /usr/sbin/setkey
30

PROCESS TYPES

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

BOOLEANS

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

FILE CONTEXTS

66       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
67       type.
68
69       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
70
71       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  files.
72       SELinux  setkey  policy  is very flexible allowing users to setup their
73       setkey processes in as secure a method as possible.
74
75       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
76
77       SELinux defines the file context types for the setkey, if you wanted to
78       store  files with these types in a different paths, you need to execute
79       the semanage command to specify alternate labeling  and  then  use  re‐
80       storecon to put the labels on disk.
81
82       semanage fcontext -a -t setkey_exec_t '/srv/setkey/content(/.*)?'
83       restorecon -R -v /srv/mysetkey_content
84
85       Note:  SELinux  often  uses  regular expressions to specify labels that
86       match multiple files.
87
88       The following file types are defined for setkey:
89
90
91
92       setkey_exec_t
93
94       - Set files with the setkey_exec_t type, if you want to  transition  an
95       executable to the setkey_t domain.
96
97
98       Paths:
99            /sbin/setkey, /usr/sbin/setkey
100
101
102       Note:  File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
103       If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use  the
104       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
105       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.

107

COMMANDS

109       semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default  file  context
110       mappings.
111
112       semanage  permissive  can  also  be used to manipulate whether or not a
113       process type is permissive.
114
115       semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove  pol‐
116       icy modules.
117
118       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
119
120
121       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
122       icy settings.
