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

171 The SELinux process type arpwatch_t can manage files labeled with the
172 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
173 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

224 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
225 type.
226
227 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
228
229 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
230 SELinux arpwatch policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
231 arpwatch processes in as secure a method as possible.
232
233 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
234
235 SELinux defines the file context types for the arpwatch, if you wanted
236 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
237 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
238 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
239
240 semanage fcontext -a -t arpwatch_var_run_t '/srv/myarpwatch_con‐
241 tent(/.*)?'
242 restorecon -R -v /srv/myarpwatch_content
243
244 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
245 match multiple files.
246
247 The following file types are defined for arpwatch:
248
249
250
251 arpwatch_data_t
252
253 - Set files with the arpwatch_data_t type, if you want to treat the
254 files as arpwatch content.
255
256
257 Paths:
258 /var/arpwatch(/.*)?, /var/lib/arpwatch(/.*)?
259
260
261 arpwatch_exec_t
262
263 - Set files with the arpwatch_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
264 executable to the arpwatch_t domain.
265
266
267
268 arpwatch_initrc_exec_t
269
270 - Set files with the arpwatch_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
271 sition an executable to the arpwatch_initrc_t domain.
272
273
274
275 arpwatch_tmp_t
276
277 - Set files with the arpwatch_tmp_t type, if you want to store arpwatch
278 temporary files in the /tmp directories.
279
280
281
282 arpwatch_unit_file_t
283
284 - Set files with the arpwatch_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat
285 the files as arpwatch unit content.
286
287
288
289 arpwatch_var_run_t
290
291 - Set files with the arpwatch_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
292 arpwatch files under the /run or /var/run directory.
293
294
295
296 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
297 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
298 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
299 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
300
301
303 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
304 mappings.
305
306 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
307 process type is permissive.
308
309 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
310 icy modules.
311
312 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
313
314
315 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
316 icy settings.
