6 nsplugin_config_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the nsplu‐
7 gin_config processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the nsplugin_config processes via flex‐
11 ible mandatory access control.
12 The nsplugin_config processes execute with the nsplugin_config_t
14 SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by exe‐
15 cuting the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16 For example:
18 ps -eZ | grep nsplugin_config_t
20
24 The nsplugin_config_t SELinux type can be entered via the nsplugin_con‐
25 fig_exec_t file type.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the nsplugin_config_t domain are the
28 following:
29 /usr/lib(64)?/nspluginwrapper/plugin-config
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 nsplugin_config policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 nsplugin_config processes in as secure a method as possible.
41 The following process types are defined for nsplugin_config:
43 nsplugin_config_t
45 Note: semanage permissive -a nsplugin_config_t can be used to make the
47 process type nsplugin_config_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. nsplu‐
54 gin_config policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run nsplugin_config 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 nsplugin code to execmem/execstack, you must turn
75 on the allow_nsplugin_execmem boolean. Enabled by default.
76 setsebool -P allow_nsplugin_execmem 1
78 If you want to allow sysadm to debug or ptrace all processes, you must
82 turn on the allow_ptrace boolean. Disabled by default.
83 setsebool -P allow_ptrace 1
85 If you want to transition to confined nsplugin domains from unconfined
89 user, you must turn on the allow_unconfined_nsplugin_transition bool‐
90 ean. Disabled by default.
91 setsebool -P allow_unconfined_nsplugin_transition 1
93 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
97 allow_ypbind boolean. Disabled by default.
98 setsebool -P allow_ypbind 1
100 If you want to allow all domains to have the kernel load modules, you
104 must turn on the domain_kernel_load_modules boolean. Disabled by
105 default.
106 setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1
108 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
112 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
113 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
115 If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn
119 on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default.
120 setsebool -P global_ssp 1
122 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
126 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Enabled by default.
127 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
129 If you want to support NFS home directories, you must turn on the
133 use_nfs_home_dirs boolean. Disabled by default.
134 setsebool -P use_nfs_home_dirs 1
136 If you want to support SAMBA home directories, you must turn on the
140 use_samba_home_dirs boolean. Disabled by default.
141 setsebool -P use_samba_home_dirs 1
143
147 The SELinux process type nsplugin_config_t can manage files labeled
148 with the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths
149 for these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC
150 permissions.

225 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
226 type.
227 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
229 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
231 SELinux nsplugin_config policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
232 their nsplugin_config processes in as secure a method as possible.
233 The following file types are defined for nsplugin_config:
235 nsplugin_config_exec_t
239 - Set files with the nsplugin_config_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
241 sition an executable to the nsplugin_config_t domain.
242 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
246 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
247 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
248 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
249
252 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
253 mappings.
254 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
256 process type is permissive.
257 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
259 icy modules.
260 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
262 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
265 icy settings.
