6 chronyd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the chronyd pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the chronyd processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The chronyd processes execute with the chronyd_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 chronyd_t
20
21
22
24 The chronyd_t SELinux type can be entered via the chronyd_exec_t file
25 type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the chronyd_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29
30 /usr/sbin/chronyd
31
33 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
34 system
35
36 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
37
38 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
39 chronyd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their chronyd
40 processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for chronyd:
43
44 chronyd_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a chronyd_t can be used to make the process
47 type chronyd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
48 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
49 ated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. chronyd
54 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
55 manipulate the policy and run chronyd with the tightest access possi‐
56 ble.

154 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
155
156 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
157 command:
158
159 semanage port -l
160
161
162 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
163 SELinux chronyd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
164 chronyd processes in as secure a method as possible.
165
166 The following port types are defined for chronyd:
167
168
169 chronyd_port_t
170
171
172
173 Default Defined Ports:
174 udp 323
175
177 The SELinux process type chronyd_t can manage files labeled with the
178 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
179 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

261 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
262 type.
263
264 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
265
266 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
267 SELinux chronyd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
268 chronyd processes in as secure a method as possible.
269
270 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
271
272 SELinux defines the file context types for the chronyd, if you wanted
273 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
274 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
275 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
276
277 semanage fcontext -a -t chronyd_var_run_t '/srv/mychronyd_con‐
278 tent(/.*)?'
279 restorecon -R -v /srv/mychronyd_content
280
281 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
282 match multiple files.
283
284 The following file types are defined for chronyd:
285
286
287
288 chronyd_exec_t
289
290 - Set files with the chronyd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
291 executable to the chronyd_t domain.
292
293
294
295 chronyd_initrc_exec_t
296
297 - Set files with the chronyd_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
298 tion an executable to the chronyd_initrc_t domain.
299
300
301
302 chronyd_keys_t
303
304 - Set files with the chronyd_keys_t type, if you want to treat the
305 files as chronyd keys data.
306
307
308
309 chronyd_tmpfs_t
310
311 - Set files with the chronyd_tmpfs_t type, if you want to store chronyd
312 files on a tmpfs file system.
313
314
315
316 chronyd_var_lib_t
317
318 - Set files with the chronyd_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the
319 chronyd files under the /var/lib directory.
320
321
322
323 chronyd_var_log_t
324
325 - Set files with the chronyd_var_log_t type, if you want to treat the
326 data as chronyd var log data, usually stored under the /var/log direc‐
327 tory.
328
329
330
331 chronyd_var_run_t
332
333 - Set files with the chronyd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
334 chronyd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
335
336
337
338 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
339 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
340 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
341 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
342
343
345 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
346 mappings.
347
348 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
349 process type is permissive.
350
351 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
352 icy modules.
353
354 semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
355
356 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
357
358
359 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
360 icy settings.
