NAME

6       slpd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the slpd processes
7

DESCRIPTION

9       Security-Enhanced  Linux secures the slpd processes via flexible manda‐
10       tory access control.
11
12       The slpd processes execute with the slpd_t SELinux type. You can  check
13       if  you  have  these processes running by executing the ps command with
14       the -Z qualifier.
15
16       For example:
17
18       ps -eZ | grep slpd_t
19
20
21

ENTRYPOINTS

23       The slpd_t SELinux type can be entered via the file_type,  unlabeled_t,
24       proc_type,  filesystem_type,  mtrr_device_t,  sysctl_type,  slpd_exec_t
25       file types.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the slpd_t domain are the following:
28
29       all files on the system, /dev/cpu/mtrr, /usr/sbin/slpd
30

PROCESS TYPES

32       SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
33       system
34
35       You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
36
37       Policy  governs  the  access confined processes have to files.  SELinux
38       slpd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup  their  slpd  pro‐
39       cesses in as secure a method as possible.
40
41       The following process types are defined for slpd:
42
43       slpd_t
44
45       Note:  semanage  permissive  -a  slpd_t can be used to make the process
46       type slpd_t permissive. SELinux does  not  deny  access  to  permissive
47       process  types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
48       ated.
49

BOOLEANS

52       SELinux policy is customizable based on least  access  required.   slpd
53       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
54       manipulate the policy and run slpd with the tightest access possible.

87       If  you  want to allow unconfined executables to make their heap memory
88       executable.  Doing this is a really  bad  idea.  Probably  indicates  a
89       badly  coded  executable, but could indicate an attack. This executable
90       should be reported in bugzilla, you must  turn  on  the  allow_execheap
91       boolean. Disabled by default.

95
96
97       If  you  want to allow unconfined executables to map a memory region as

114       If you want to allow unconfined executables to make  their  stack  exe‐
115       cutable.   This  should  never, ever be necessary. Probably indicates a
116       badly coded executable, but could indicate an attack.  This  executable
117       should  be  reported in bugzilla), you must turn on the allow_execstack
118       boolean. Enabled by default.

MANAGED FILES

212       The  SELinux process type slpd_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
213       lowing file types.  The paths listed are the default  paths  for  these
214       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
215
216       file_type
217
218            all files on the system
219
220

FILE CONTEXTS

222       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
223       type.
224
225       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
226
227       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  files.
228       SELinux slpd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their slpd
229       processes in as secure a method as possible.
230
231       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
232
233       SELinux defines the file context types for the slpd, if you  wanted  to
234       store  files  with  these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
235       the semanage command  to  sepecify  alternate  labeling  and  then  use
236       restorecon to put the labels on disk.
237
238       semanage fcontext -a -t slpd_var_run_t '/srv/myslpd_content(/.*)?'
239       restorecon -R -v /srv/myslpd_content
240
241       Note:  SELinux  often  uses  regular expressions to specify labels that
242       match multiple files.
243
244       The following file types are defined for slpd:
245
246
247
248       slpd_exec_t
249
250       - Set files with the slpd_exec_t type, if you  want  to  transition  an
251       executable to the slpd_t domain.
252
253
254
255       slpd_initrc_exec_t
256
257       - Set files with the slpd_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transition
258       an executable to the slpd_initrc_t domain.
259
260
261
262       slpd_var_log_t
263
264       - Set files with the slpd_var_log_t type, if you want to treat the data
265       as slpd var log data, usually stored under the /var/log directory.
266
267
268
269       slpd_var_run_t
270
271       - Set files with the slpd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the slpd
272       files under the /run or /var/run directory.
273
274
275
276       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
277       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
278       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
279       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
280
281

COMMANDS

283       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
284       mappings.
285
286       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
287       process type is permissive.
288
289       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
290       icy modules.
291
292       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
293
294
295       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
296       icy settings.
