6 lpd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the lpd processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the lpd processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11
12 The lpd processes execute with the lpd_t SELinux type. You can check if
13 you have these processes running by executing the ps command with the
14 -Z qualifier.
15
16 For example:
17
18 ps -eZ | grep lpd_t
19
20
21
23 The lpd_t SELinux type can be entered via the lpd_exec_t file type.
24
25 The default entrypoint paths for the lpd_t domain are the following:
26
27 /usr/sbin/lpd
28
30 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
31 system
32
33 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
34
35 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
36 lpd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their lpd processes
37 in as secure a method as possible.
38
39 The following process types are defined for lpd:
40
41 lpd_t
42
43 Note: semanage permissive -a lpd_t can be used to make the process type
44 lpd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process
45 types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated.
46
47
49 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. lpd
50 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
51 manipulate the policy and run lpd with the tightest access possible.

128 turn on the init_upstart boolean. Enabled by default.
129
130 setsebool -P init_upstart 1
131
132
133
135 The SELinux process type lpd_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
136 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
137 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

211 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
212 type.
213
214 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
215
216 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
217 SELinux lpd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their lpd
218 processes in as secure a method as possible.
219
220 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
221
222 SELinux defines the file context types for the lpd, if you wanted to
223 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
224 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
225 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
226
227 semanage fcontext -a -t lpd_var_run_t '/srv/mylpd_content(/.*)?'
228 restorecon -R -v /srv/mylpd_content
229
230 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
231 match multiple files.
232
233 The following file types are defined for lpd:
234
235
236
237 lpd_exec_t
238
239 - Set files with the lpd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an exe‐
240 cutable to the lpd_t domain.
241
242
243
244 lpd_tmp_t
245
246 - Set files with the lpd_tmp_t type, if you want to store lpd temporary
247 files in the /tmp directories.
248
249
250
251 lpd_var_run_t
252
253 - Set files with the lpd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the lpd
254 files under the /run or /var/run directory.
255
256
257
258 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
259 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
260 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
261 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
262
263
265 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
266 mappings.
267
268 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
269 process type is permissive.
270
271 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
272 icy modules.
273
274 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
275
276
277 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
278 icy settings.
