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

239 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
240 type.
241
242 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
243
244 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
245 SELinux foghorn policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
246 foghorn processes in as secure a method as possible.
247
248 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
249
250 SELinux defines the file context types for the foghorn, if you wanted
251 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
252 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
253 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
254
255 semanage fcontext -a -t foghorn_var_run_t '/srv/myfoghorn_con‐
256 tent(/.*)?'
257 restorecon -R -v /srv/myfoghorn_content
258
259 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
260 match multiple files.
261
262 The following file types are defined for foghorn:
263
264
265
266 foghorn_exec_t
267
268 - Set files with the foghorn_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
269 executable to the foghorn_t domain.
270
271
272
273 foghorn_initrc_exec_t
274
275 - Set files with the foghorn_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
276 tion an executable to the foghorn_initrc_t domain.
277
278
279
280 foghorn_tmpfs_t
281
282 - Set files with the foghorn_tmpfs_t type, if you want to store foghorn
283 files on a tmpfs file system.
284
285
286
287 foghorn_var_log_t
288
289 - Set files with the foghorn_var_log_t type, if you want to treat the
290 data as foghorn var log data, usually stored under the /var/log direc‐
291 tory.
292
293
294
295 foghorn_var_run_t
296
297 - Set files with the foghorn_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
298 foghorn files under the /run or /var/run directory.
299
300
301
302 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
303 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
304 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
305 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
306
307
309 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
310 mappings.
311
312 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
313 process type is permissive.
314
315 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
316 icy modules.
317
318 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
319
320
321 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
322 icy settings.
