6 ypbind_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the ypbind pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the ypbind processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The ypbind processes execute with the ypbind_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 ypbind_t
20
21
22
24 The ypbind_t SELinux type can be entered via the ypbind_exec_t file
25 type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the ypbind_t domain are the following:
28
29 /sbin/ypbind, /usr/sbin/ypbind
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 ypbind policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their ypbind
39 processes in as secure a method as possible.
40
41 The following process types are defined for ypbind:
42
43 ypbind_t
44
45 Note: semanage permissive -a ypbind_t can be used to make the process
46 type ypbind_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. ypbind
53 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
54 manipulate the policy and run ypbind with the tightest access possible.

131 The SELinux process type ypbind_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.

205 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
206 type.
207
208 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
209
210 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
211 SELinux ypbind policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
212 ypbind processes in as secure a method as possible.
213
214 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
215
216 SELinux defines the file context types for the ypbind, if you wanted to
217 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
218 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
219 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
220
221 semanage fcontext -a -t ypbind_var_run_t '/srv/myypbind_content(/.*)?'
222 restorecon -R -v /srv/myypbind_content
223
224 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
225 match multiple files.
226
227 The following file types are defined for ypbind:
228
229
230
231 ypbind_exec_t
232
233 - Set files with the ypbind_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
234 executable to the ypbind_t domain.
235
236
237 Paths:
238 /sbin/ypbind, /usr/sbin/ypbind
239
240
241 ypbind_initrc_exec_t
242
243 - Set files with the ypbind_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
244 tion an executable to the ypbind_initrc_t domain.
245
246
247
248 ypbind_tmp_t
249
250 - Set files with the ypbind_tmp_t type, if you want to store ypbind
251 temporary files in the /tmp directories.
252
253
254
255 ypbind_var_run_t
256
257 - Set files with the ypbind_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
258 ypbind files under the /run or /var/run directory.
259
260
261
262 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
263 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
264 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
265 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
266
267
269 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
270 mappings.
271
272 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
273 process type is permissive.
274
275 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
276 icy modules.
277
278 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
279
280
281 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
282 icy settings.
