6 bluetooth_helper_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the blue‐
7 tooth_helper processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the bluetooth_helper processes via
11 flexible mandatory access control.
12
13 The bluetooth_helper processes execute with the bluetooth_helper_t
14 SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by exe‐
15 cuting the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep bluetooth_helper_t
20
21
22
24 The bluetooth_helper_t SELinux type can be entered via the blue‐
25 tooth_helper_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the bluetooth_helper_t domain are the
28 following:
29
30 /usr/bin/blue.*pin
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 bluetooth_helper policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 bluetooth_helper processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for bluetooth_helper:
43
44 bluetooth_helper_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a bluetooth_helper_t can be used to make the
47 process type bluetooth_helper_t permissive. SELinux does not deny
48 access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) mes‐
49 sages are still generated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. blue‐
54 tooth_helper policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run bluetooth_helper with the
56 tightest access possible.

172 The SELinux process type bluetooth_helper_t can manage files labeled
173 with the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths

193
194
195
197 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
198 type.
199
200 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
201
202 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
203 SELinux bluetooth_helper policy is very flexible allowing users to set‐
204 up their bluetooth_helper processes in as secure a method as possible.
205
206 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
207
208 SELinux defines the file context types for the bluetooth_helper, if you
209 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
210 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
211 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
212
213 semanage fcontext -a -t bluetooth_helper_tmpfs_t '/srv/myblue‐
214 tooth_helper_content(/.*)?'
215 restorecon -R -v /srv/mybluetooth_helper_content
216
217 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
218 match multiple files.
219
220 The following file types are defined for bluetooth_helper:
221
222
223
224 bluetooth_helper_exec_t
225
226 - Set files with the bluetooth_helper_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
227 sition an executable to the bluetooth_helper_t domain.
228
229
230
231 bluetooth_helper_tmp_t
232
233 - Set files with the bluetooth_helper_tmp_t type, if you want to store
234 bluetooth helper temporary files in the /tmp directories.
235
236
237
238 bluetooth_helper_tmpfs_t
239
240 - Set files with the bluetooth_helper_tmpfs_t type, if you want to
241 store bluetooth helper files on a tmpfs file system.
242
243
244
245 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
246 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
247 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
248 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
249
250
252 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
253 mappings.
254
255 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
256 process type is permissive.
257
258 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
259 icy modules.
260
261 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
262
263
264 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
265 icy settings.
