6 antivirus_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the antivirus
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the antivirus processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The antivirus processes execute with the antivirus_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 antivirus_t
20
21
22
24 The antivirus_t SELinux type can be entered via the antivirus_exec_t
25 file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the antivirus_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29
30 /usr/sbin/amavisd.*, /usr/sbin/clamd, /usr/bin/clamscan,
31 /usr/bin/clamdscan, /usr/bin/freshclam, /usr/sbin/clamav-milter,
32 /usr/lib/AntiVir/antivir
33
35 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
36 system
37
38 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
39
40 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
41 antivirus policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
42 antivirus processes in as secure a method as possible.
43
44 The following process types are defined for antivirus:
45
46 antivirus_t
47
48 Note: semanage permissive -a antivirus_t can be used to make the
49 process type antivirus_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
50 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
51 still generated.
52
53
55 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
56 antivirus policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
57 allow you to manipulate the policy and run antivirus with the tightest
58 access possible.

172 The SELinux process type antivirus_t can manage files labeled with the
173 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
174 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

274 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
275 type.
276
277 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
278
279 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
280 SELinux antivirus policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
281 antivirus processes in as secure a method as possible.
282
283 EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
284
285
286 antivirus policy stores data with multiple different file context types
287 under the /var/run/amavis(d)? directory. If you would like to store
288 the data in a different directory you can use the semanage command to
289 create an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this data under
290 the /srv dirctory you would execute the following command:
291
292 semanage fcontext -a -e /var/run/amavis(d)? /srv/amavis(d)?
293 restorecon -R -v /srv/amavis(d)?
294
295 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
296
297 SELinux defines the file context types for the antivirus, if you wanted
298 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
299 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
300 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
301
302 semanage fcontext -a -t antivirus_var_run_t '/srv/myantivirus_con‐
303 tent(/.*)?'
304 restorecon -R -v /srv/myantivirus_content
305
306 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
307 match multiple files.
308
309 The following file types are defined for antivirus:
310
311
312
313 antivirus_conf_t
314
315 - Set files with the antivirus_conf_t type, if you want to treat the
316 files as antivirus configuration data, usually stored under the /etc
317 directory.
318
319
320 Paths:
321 /etc/amavis(d)?.conf, /etc/amavisd(/.*)?
322
323
324 antivirus_db_t
325
326 - Set files with the antivirus_db_t type, if you want to treat the
327 files as antivirus database content.
328
329
330 Paths:
331 /var/clamav(/.*)?, /var/amavis(/.*)?, /var/lib/clamd.*,
332 /var/lib/amavis(/.*)?, /var/lib/clamav(/.*)?, /var/virus‐
333 mails(/.*)?, /var/opt/f-secure(/.*)?, /var/spool/amavisd(/.*)?
334
335
336 antivirus_exec_t
337
338 - Set files with the antivirus_exec_t type, if you want to transition
339 an executable to the antivirus_t domain.
340
341
342 Paths:
343 /usr/sbin/amavisd.*, /usr/sbin/clamd, /usr/bin/clamscan,
344 /usr/bin/clamdscan, /usr/bin/freshclam, /usr/sbin/clamav-milter,
345 /usr/lib/AntiVir/antivir
346
347
348 antivirus_initrc_exec_t
349
350 - Set files with the antivirus_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
351 sition an executable to the antivirus_initrc_t domain.
352
353
354 Paths:
355 /etc/rc.d/init.d/clamd.*, /etc/rc.d/init.d/amavis,
356 /etc/rc.d/init.d/amavisd-snmp
357
358
359 antivirus_log_t
360
361 - Set files with the antivirus_log_t type, if you want to treat the
362 data as antivirus log data, usually stored under the /var/log direc‐
363 tory.
364
365
366 Paths:
367 /var/log/clamd.*, /var/log/clamav.*, /var/log/freshclam.*,
368 /var/log/amavisd.log.*, /var/log/clamav/freshclam.*
369
370
371 antivirus_tmp_t
372
373 - Set files with the antivirus_tmp_t type, if you want to store
374 antivirus temporary files in the /tmp directories.
375
376
377
378 antivirus_var_run_t
379
380 - Set files with the antivirus_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
381 antivirus files under the /run or /var/run directory.
382
383
384 Paths:
385 /var/run/clamd.*, /var/run/clamav.*, /var/run/amavis(d)?(/.*)?,
386 /var/run/amavis(d)?/clamd.pid, /var/run/amavisd-snmp-subagent.pid
387
388
389 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
390 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
391 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
392 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
393
394
396 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
397 mappings.
398
399 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
400 process type is permissive.
401
402 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
403 icy modules.
404
405 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
406
407
408 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
409 icy settings.
