6 cobblerd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the cobblerd pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the cobblerd processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The cobblerd processes execute with the cobblerd_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
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep cobblerd_t
20
21
22
24 The cobblerd_t SELinux type can be entered via the cobblerd_exec_t file
25 type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the cobblerd_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29
30 /usr/bin/cobblerd
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 cobblerd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their cobblerd
40 processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for cobblerd:
43
44 cobblerd_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a cobblerd_t can be used to make the process
47 type cobblerd_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. cob‐
54 blerd policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
55 you to manipulate the policy and run cobblerd with the tightest access
56 possible.
57

176 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
177
178 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
179 command:
180
181 semanage port -l
182
183
184 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
185 SELinux cobblerd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
186 cobblerd processes in as secure a method as possible.

188 The following port types are defined for cobblerd:
189

192
193
194
195 Default Defined Ports:
196 tcp 25151
197
199 The SELinux process type cobblerd_t can manage files labeled with the
200 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
201 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

357 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
358 type.
359
360 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
361
362 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
363 SELinux cobblerd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
364 cobblerd processes in as secure a method as possible.
365
366 The following file types are defined for cobblerd:
367
368
369
370 cobblerd_exec_t
371
372 - Set files with the cobblerd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
373 executable to the cobblerd_t domain.
374
375
376
377 cobblerd_initrc_exec_t
378
379 - Set files with the cobblerd_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
380 sition an executable to the cobblerd_initrc_t domain.
381
382
383
384 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
385 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
386 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
387 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
388
389
391 If you want to share files with multiple domains (Apache, FTP, rsync,
392 Samba), you can set a file context of public_content_t and public_con‐
393 tent_rw_t. These context allow any of the above domains to read the
394 content. If you want a particular domain to write to the public_con‐
395 tent_rw_t domain, you must set the appropriate boolean.
396
397 Allow cobblerd servers to read the /var/cobblerd directory by adding
398 the public_content_t file type to the directory and by restoring the
399 file type.
400
401 semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_t "/var/cobblerd(/.*)?"
402 restorecon -F -R -v /var/cobblerd
403
404 Allow cobblerd servers to read and write /var/cobblerd/incoming by
405 adding the public_content_rw_t type to the directory and by restoring
406 the file type. You also need to turn on the cobblerd_anon_write bool‐
407 ean.
408
409 semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_rw_t "/var/cobblerd/incom‐
410 ing(/.*)?"
411 restorecon -F -R -v /var/cobblerd/incoming
412 setsebool -P cobblerd_anon_write 1
413
414
415 If you want to allow Cobbler to modify public files used for public
416 file transfer services., you must turn on the cobbler_anon_write bool‐
417 ean.
418
419 setsebool -P cobbler_anon_write 1
420
421
423 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
424 mappings.
425
426 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
427 process type is permissive.
428
429 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
430 icy modules.
431
432 semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
433
434 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
435
436
437 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
438 icy settings.
