6 ftpdctl_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the ftpdctl pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the ftpdctl processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The ftpdctl processes execute with the ftpdctl_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 ftpdctl_t
20
21
22
24 The ftpdctl_t SELinux type can be entered via the ftpdctl_exec_t file
25 type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the ftpdctl_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29
30 /usr/bin/ftpdctl
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 ftpdctl policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their ftpdctl
40 processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for ftpdctl:
43
44 ftpdctl_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a ftpdctl_t can be used to make the process
47 type ftpdctl_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
48 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
49 ated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. ftpdctl
54 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
55 manipulate the policy and run ftpdctl with the tightest access possi‐
56 ble.
57
58
59
60 If you want to allow all daemons the ability to read/write terminals,
61 you must turn on the allow_daemons_use_tty boolean. Disabled by
62 default.
63
64 setsebool -P allow_daemons_use_tty 1
65
66
67
68 If you want to allow all domains to use other domains file descriptors,
69 you must turn on the allow_domain_fd_use boolean. Enabled by default.
70
71 setsebool -P allow_domain_fd_use 1
72
73
74
75 If you want to allow sysadm to debug or ptrace all processes, you must
76 turn on the allow_ptrace boolean. Disabled by default.
77
78 setsebool -P allow_ptrace 1
79
80
81
82 If you want to allow all domains to have the kernel load modules, you
83 must turn on the domain_kernel_load_modules boolean. Disabled by
84 default.
85
86 setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1
87
88
89
90 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
91 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
92
93 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
94
95
96
97 If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn
98 on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default.
99
100 setsebool -P global_ssp 1
101
102
103
105 The SELinux process type ftpdctl_t can manage files labeled with the
106 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
107 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

131 /tmp-inst
132 /var/tmp-inst
133 /var/tmp/vi.recover
134
135
137 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
138 type.
139
140 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
141
142 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
143 SELinux ftpdctl policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
144 ftpdctl processes in as secure a method as possible.
145
146 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
147
148 SELinux defines the file context types for the ftpdctl, if you wanted
149 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
150 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
151 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
152
153 semanage fcontext -a -t ftpdctl_tmp_t '/srv/myftpdctl_content(/.*)?'
154 restorecon -R -v /srv/myftpdctl_content
155
156 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
157 match multiple files.
158
159 The following file types are defined for ftpdctl:
160
161
162
163 ftpdctl_exec_t
164
165 - Set files with the ftpdctl_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
166 executable to the ftpdctl_t domain.
167
168
169
170 ftpdctl_tmp_t
171
172 - Set files with the ftpdctl_tmp_t type, if you want to store ftpdctl
173 temporary files in the /tmp directories.
174
175
176
177 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
178 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
179 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
180 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
181
182
184 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
185 mappings.
186
187 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
188 process type is permissive.
189
190 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
191 icy modules.
192
193 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
194
195
196 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
197 icy settings.
