6 boinc_project_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the
7 boinc_project processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the boinc_project processes via flexi‐
11 ble mandatory access control.
12 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 For example:
18 ps -eZ | grep boinc_project_t
20
24 The boinc_project_t SELinux type can be entered via the
25 boinc_project_var_lib_t file type.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the boinc_project_t domain are the
28 following:
29 /var/lib/boinc/slots(/.*)?, /var/lib/boinc/projects(/.*)?
31
33 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
34 system
35 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
37 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 The following process types are defined for boinc_project:
43 boinc_project_t
45 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.
50
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 If you want to allow all domains to use other domains file descriptors,
61 you must turn on the allow_domain_fd_use boolean. Enabled by default.
62 setsebool -P allow_domain_fd_use 1
64 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
68 must turn on the allow_kerberos boolean. Enabled by default.
69 setsebool -P allow_kerberos 1
71 If you want to allow sysadm to debug or ptrace all processes, you must
75 turn on the allow_ptrace boolean. Disabled by default.
76 setsebool -P allow_ptrace 1
78 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
82 allow_ypbind boolean. Disabled by default.
83 setsebool -P allow_ypbind 1
85 If you want to allow all domains to have the kernel load modules, you
89 must turn on the domain_kernel_load_modules boolean. Disabled by
90 default.
91 setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1
93 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
97 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
98 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
100 If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn
104 on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default.
105 setsebool -P global_ssp 1
107 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
111 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Enabled by default.
112 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
114
118 The SELinux process type boinc_project_t can manage files labeled with
119 the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for
120 these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC per‐
121 missions.
122 boinc_project_tmp_t
124 boinc_project_var_lib_t
127 /var/lib/boinc/slots(/.*)?
129 /var/lib/boinc/projects(/.*)?
130 boinc_var_lib_t
132 /var/lib/boinc(/.*)?
134 initrc_tmp_t
136 mnt_t
139 /mnt(/[^/]*)
141 /mnt(/[^/]*)?
142 /rhev(/[^/]*)?
143 /media(/[^/]*)
144 /media(/[^/]*)?
145 /etc/rhgb(/.*)?
146 /media/.hal-.*
147 /net
148 /afs
149 /rhev
150 /misc
151 tmp_t
153 /tmp
155 /usr/tmp
156 /var/tmp
157 /tmp-inst
158 /var/tmp-inst
159 /var/tmp/vi.recover

163 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
164 type.
165 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
167 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
169 SELinux boinc_project policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
170 their boinc_project processes in as secure a method as possible.
171 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
173 SELinux defines the file context types for the boinc_project, if you
175 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
176 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
177 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
178 semanage fcontext -a -t boinc_project_var_lib_t
180 '/srv/myboinc_project_content(/.*)?'
181 restorecon -R -v /srv/myboinc_project_content
182 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
184 match multiple files.
185 The following file types are defined for boinc_project:
187 boinc_project_tmp_t
191 - Set files with the boinc_project_tmp_t type, if you want to store
193 boinc project temporary files in the /tmp directories.
194 boinc_project_var_lib_t
198 - Set files with the boinc_project_var_lib_t type, if you want to store
200 the boinc project files under the /var/lib directory.
201 Paths:
204 /var/lib/boinc/slots(/.*)?, /var/lib/boinc/projects(/.*)?
205 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
208 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
209 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
210 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
211
214 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
215 mappings.
216 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
218 process type is permissive.
219 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
221 icy modules.
222 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
224 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
227 icy settings.
