6 dbskkd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the dbskkd pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the dbskkd processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The dbskkd processes execute with the dbskkd_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 dbskkd_t
20
21
22
24 The dbskkd_t SELinux type can be entered via the dbskkd_exec_t file
25 type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the dbskkd_t domain are the following:
28
29 /usr/sbin/dbskkd-cdb
30
32 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
33 system
34
35 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
36
37 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
38 dbskkd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their dbskkd
39 processes in as secure a method as possible.
40
41 The following process types are defined for dbskkd:
42
43 dbskkd_t
44
45 Note: semanage permissive -a dbskkd_t can be used to make the process
46 type dbskkd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
47 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
48 ated.
49
50
52 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. dbskkd
53 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
54 manipulate the policy and run dbskkd with the tightest access possible.
55
56
57
58 If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from
59 ldap rather then using a sssd server, you must turn on the authlo‐
60 gin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.
61
62 setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
63
64
65
66 If you want to deny any process from ptracing or debugging any other
67 processes, you must turn on the deny_ptrace boolean. Enabled by
68 default.
69
70 setsebool -P deny_ptrace 1
71
72
73
74 If you want to allow any process to mmap any file on system with
75 attribute file_type, you must turn on the domain_can_mmap_files bool‐
76 ean. Enabled by default.
77
78 setsebool -P domain_can_mmap_files 1
79
80
81
82 If you want to allow all domains write to kmsg_device, while kernel is
83 executed with systemd.log_target=kmsg parameter, you must turn on the
84 domain_can_write_kmsg boolean. Disabled by default.
85
86 setsebool -P domain_can_write_kmsg 1
87
88
89
90 If you want to allow all domains to use other domains file descriptors,
91 you must turn on the domain_fd_use boolean. Enabled by default.
92
93 setsebool -P domain_fd_use 1
94
95
96
97 If you want to allow all domains to have the kernel load modules, you
98 must turn on the domain_kernel_load_modules boolean. Disabled by
99 default.
100
101 setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1
102
103
104
105 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
106 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
107
108 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
109
110
111
112 If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn
113 on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default.
114
115 setsebool -P global_ssp 1
116
117
118
119 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
120 must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
121
122 setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
123
124
125
126 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
127 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
128
129 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
130
131
132
133 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
134 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Disabled by default.
135
136 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
137
138
139
141 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
142
143 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
144 command:
145
146 semanage port -l
147
148
149 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
150 SELinux dbskkd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
151 dbskkd processes in as secure a method as possible.
152
153 The following port types are defined for dbskkd:
154
155
156 dbskkd_port_t
157
158
159
160 Default Defined Ports:
161 tcp 1178
162
164 The SELinux process type dbskkd_t can manage files labeled with the
165 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
166 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
167
168 dbskkd_tmp_t
169
170
171 dbskkd_var_run_t
172
173
174
176 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
177 type.
178
179 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
180
181 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
182 SELinux dbskkd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
183 dbskkd processes in as secure a method as possible.
184
185 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
186
187 SELinux defines the file context types for the dbskkd, if you wanted to
188 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
189 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
190 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
191
192 semanage fcontext -a -t dbskkd_var_run_t '/srv/mydbskkd_content(/.*)?'
193 restorecon -R -v /srv/mydbskkd_content
194
195 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
196 match multiple files.
197
198 The following file types are defined for dbskkd:
199
200
201
202 dbskkd_exec_t
203
204 - Set files with the dbskkd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
205 executable to the dbskkd_t domain.
206
207
208
209 dbskkd_tmp_t
210
211 - Set files with the dbskkd_tmp_t type, if you want to store dbskkd
212 temporary files in the /tmp directories.
213
214
215
216 dbskkd_var_run_t
217
218 - Set files with the dbskkd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
219 dbskkd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
220
221
222
223 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
224 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
225 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
226 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
227
228
230 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
231 mappings.
232
233 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
234 process type is permissive.
235
236 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
237 icy modules.
238
239 semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
240
241 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
242
243
244 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
245 icy settings.
