6 tzdata_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the tzdata pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the tzdata processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The tzdata processes execute with the tzdata_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 tzdata_t
20
21
22
24 The tzdata_t SELinux type can be entered via the tzdata_exec_t file
25 type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the tzdata_t domain are the following:
28
29 /usr/sbin/tzdata-update
30
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 tzdata policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their tzdata
39 processes in as secure a method as possible.
40
41 The following process types are defined for tzdata:
42
43 tzdata_t
44
45 Note: semanage permissive -a tzdata_t can be used to make the process
46 type tzdata_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
47 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
48 ated.
49
50
52 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. tzdata
53 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
54 manipulate the policy and run tzdata with the tightest access possible.

102 must turn on the domain_kernel_load_modules boolean. Disabled by
103 default.
104
105 setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1
106
107
108
109 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
110 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
111
112 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
113
114
115
116 If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn
117 on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default.
118
119 setsebool -P global_ssp 1
120
121
122
123 If you want to enable support for upstart as the init program, you must
124 turn on the init_upstart boolean. Enabled by default.
125
126 setsebool -P init_upstart 1
127

131 The SELinux process type tzdata_t can manage files labeled with the
132 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
133 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

208 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
209 type.
210
211 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
212
213 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
214 SELinux tzdata policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
215 tzdata processes in as secure a method as possible.
216
217 The following file types are defined for tzdata:
218
219
220
221 tzdata_exec_t
222
223 - Set files with the tzdata_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
224 executable to the tzdata_t domain.
225
226
227
228 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
229 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
230 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
231 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
232
233
235 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
236 mappings.
237
238 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
239 process type is permissive.
240
241 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
242 icy modules.
243
244 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
245
246
247 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
248 icy settings.
