6 openhpid_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the openhpid pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the openhpid processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12 The openhpid processes execute with the openhpid_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 For example:
18 ps -eZ | grep openhpid_t
20
24 The openhpid_t SELinux type can be entered via the file_type, openh‐
25 pid_exec_t, unlabeled_t, proc_type, filesystem_type, mtrr_device_t,
26 sysctl_type file types.
27 The default entrypoint paths for the openhpid_t domain are the follow‐
29 ing:
30 all files on the system, /usr/sbin/openhpid, /dev/cpu/mtrr
32
34 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
35 system
36 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
38 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
40 openhpid policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their openhpid
41 processes in as secure a method as possible.
42 The following process types are defined for openhpid:
44 openhpid_t
46 Note: semanage permissive -a openhpid_t can be used to make the process
48 type openhpid_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
49 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
50 ated.
51
54 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. openh‐
55 pid policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
56 you to manipulate the policy and run openhpid with the tightest access
57 possible.
58 If you want to allow all daemons to write corefiles to /, you must turn
62 on the allow_daemons_dump_core boolean. Disabled by default.
63 setsebool -P allow_daemons_dump_core 1
65 If you want to allow all daemons to use tcp wrappers, you must turn on
69 the allow_daemons_use_tcp_wrapper boolean. Disabled by default.
70 setsebool -P allow_daemons_use_tcp_wrapper 1
72 If you want to allow all daemons the ability to read/write terminals,
76 you must turn on the allow_daemons_use_tty boolean. Disabled by
77 default.

80 If you want to allow all domains to use other domains file descriptors,
84 you must turn on the allow_domain_fd_use boolean. Enabled by default.
85 setsebool -P allow_domain_fd_use 1
87 If you want to allow unconfined executables to make their heap memory
91 executable. Doing this is a really bad idea. Probably indicates a
92 badly coded executable, but could indicate an attack. This executable
93 should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the allow_execheap
94 boolean. Disabled by default.
95 setsebool -P allow_execheap 1
97 If you want to allow unconfined executables to map a memory region as
101 both executable and writable, this is dangerous and the executable
102 should be reported in bugzilla), you must turn on the allow_execmem
103 boolean. Enabled by default.
104 setsebool -P allow_execmem 1
106 If you want to allow all unconfined executables to use libraries
110 requiring text relocation that are not labeled textrel_shlib_t), you
111 must turn on the allow_execmod boolean. Enabled by default.
112 setsebool -P allow_execmod 1
114 If you want to allow unconfined executables to make their stack exe‐
118 cutable. This should never, ever be necessary. Probably indicates a
119 badly coded executable, but could indicate an attack. This executable
120 should be reported in bugzilla), you must turn on the allow_execstack
121 boolean. Enabled by default.
122 setsebool -P allow_execstack 1
124 If you want to allow sysadm to debug or ptrace all processes, you must
128 turn on the allow_ptrace boolean. Disabled by default.
129 setsebool -P allow_ptrace 1
131 If you want to enable cluster mode for daemons, you must turn on the
135 daemons_enable_cluster_mode boolean. Disabled by default.
136 setsebool -P daemons_enable_cluster_mode 1
138 If you want to allow all domains to have the kernel load modules, you
142 must turn on the domain_kernel_load_modules boolean. Disabled by
143 default.
144 setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1
146 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
150 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
151 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
153 If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn
157 on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default.
158 setsebool -P global_ssp 1
160 If you want to enable support for upstart as the init program, you must
164 turn on the init_upstart boolean. Enabled by default.
165 setsebool -P init_upstart 1
167 If you want to allow certain domains to map low memory in the kernel,
171 you must turn on the mmap_low_allowed boolean. Disabled by default.
172 setsebool -P mmap_low_allowed 1
174 If you want to boolean to determine whether the system permits loading
178 policy, setting enforcing mode, and changing boolean values. Set this
179 to true and you have to reboot to set it back, you must turn on the
180 secure_mode_policyload boolean. Disabled by default.
181 setsebool -P secure_mode_policyload 1
183 If you want to support X userspace object manager, you must turn on the
187 xserver_object_manager boolean. Disabled by default.
188 setsebool -P xserver_object_manager 1

194 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
195 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
197 command:
198 semanage port -l
200 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
203 SELinux openhpid policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
204 openhpid processes in as secure a method as possible.
205 The following port types are defined for openhpid:
207 openhpid_port_t
210 Default Defined Ports:
214 tcp 4743
215 udp 4743
216
218 The SELinux process type openhpid_t can manage files labeled with the
219 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
220 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
221 file_type
223 all files on the system
225
228 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
229 type.
230 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
232 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
234 SELinux openhpid policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
235 openhpid processes in as secure a method as possible.
236 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
238 SELinux defines the file context types for the openhpid, if you wanted
240 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
241 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
242 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
243 semanage fcontext -a -t openhpid_var_run_t '/srv/myopenhpid_con‐
245 tent(/.*)?'
246 restorecon -R -v /srv/myopenhpid_content
247 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
249 match multiple files.
250 The following file types are defined for openhpid:
252 openhpid_exec_t
256 - Set files with the openhpid_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
258 executable to the openhpid_t domain.
259 openhpid_initrc_exec_t
263 - Set files with the openhpid_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
265 sition an executable to the openhpid_initrc_t domain.
266 openhpid_var_lib_t
270 - Set files with the openhpid_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the
272 openhpid files under the /var/lib directory.
273 openhpid_var_run_t
277 - Set files with the openhpid_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
279 openhpid files under the /run or /var/run directory.
280 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
284 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
285 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
286 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
287
290 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
291 mappings.
292 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
294 process type is permissive.
295 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
297 icy modules.
298 semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
300 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
302 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
305 icy settings.
