6 podsleuth_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the podsleuth
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the podsleuth processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The podsleuth processes execute with the podsleuth_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 podsleuth_t
20
21
22
24 The podsleuth_t SELinux type can be entered via the podsleuth_exec_t
25 file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the podsleuth_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29
30 /usr/bin/podsleuth, /usr/libexec/hal-podsleuth
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 podsleuth policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their pod‐
40 sleuth processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for podsleuth:
43
44 podsleuth_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a podsleuth_t can be used to make the
47 process type podsleuth_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
48 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
49 still generated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. pod‐
54 sleuth policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
55 you to manipulate the policy and run podsleuth with the tightest access
56 possible.
57
58
59
60 If you want to allow all domains to use other domains file descriptors,
61 you must turn on the allow_domain_fd_use boolean. Enabled by default.
62
63 setsebool -P allow_domain_fd_use 1
64
65
66
67 If you want to allow sysadm to debug or ptrace all processes, you must
68 turn on the allow_ptrace boolean. Disabled by default.
69
70 setsebool -P allow_ptrace 1
71
72
73
74 If you want to allow all domains to have the kernel load modules, you
75 must turn on the domain_kernel_load_modules boolean. Disabled by
76 default.
77
78 setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1
79
80
81
82 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
83 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
84
85 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
86
87
88
89 If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn
90 on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default.
91
92 setsebool -P global_ssp 1
93
94
95
97 The SELinux process type podsleuth_t can manage files labeled with the
98 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
99 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

139 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
140 type.
141
142 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
143
144 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
145 SELinux podsleuth policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
146 podsleuth processes in as secure a method as possible.
147
148 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
149
150 SELinux defines the file context types for the podsleuth, if you wanted
151 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
152 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
153 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
154
155 semanage fcontext -a -t podsleuth_tmpfs_t '/srv/mypodsleuth_con‐
156 tent(/.*)?'
157 restorecon -R -v /srv/mypodsleuth_content
158
159 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
160 match multiple files.
161
162 The following file types are defined for podsleuth:
163
164
165
166 podsleuth_cache_t
167
168 - Set files with the podsleuth_cache_t type, if you want to store the
169 files under the /var/cache directory.
170
171
172
173 podsleuth_exec_t
174
175 - Set files with the podsleuth_exec_t type, if you want to transition
176 an executable to the podsleuth_t domain.
177
178
179 Paths:
180 /usr/bin/podsleuth, /usr/libexec/hal-podsleuth
181
182
183 podsleuth_tmp_t
184
185 - Set files with the podsleuth_tmp_t type, if you want to store pod‐
186 sleuth temporary files in the /tmp directories.
187
188
189
190 podsleuth_tmpfs_t
191
192 - Set files with the podsleuth_tmpfs_t type, if you want to store pod‐
193 sleuth files on a tmpfs file system.
194
195
196
197 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
198 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
199 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
200 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
201
202
204 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
205 mappings.
206
207 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
208 process type is permissive.
209
210 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
211 icy modules.
212
213 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
214
215
216 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
217 icy settings.
