NAME

6       lsmd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the lsmd processes
7

DESCRIPTION

9       Security-Enhanced  Linux secures the lsmd processes via flexible manda‐
10       tory access control.
11
12       The lsmd processes execute with the lsmd_t SELinux type. You can  check
13       if  you  have  these processes running by executing the ps command with
14       the -Z qualifier.
15
16       For example:
17
18       ps -eZ | grep lsmd_t
19
20
21

ENTRYPOINTS

23       The lsmd_t SELinux type can be entered via the lsmd_exec_t file type.
24
25       The default entrypoint paths for the lsmd_t domain are the following:
26
27       /usr/bin/lsmd
28

PROCESS TYPES

30       SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
31       system
32
33       You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
34
35       Policy  governs  the  access confined processes have to files.  SELinux
36       lsmd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup  their  lsmd  pro‐
37       cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39       The following process types are defined for lsmd:
40
41       lsmd_t, lsmd_plugin_t
42
43       Note:  semanage  permissive  -a  lsmd_t can be used to make the process
44       type lsmd_t permissive. SELinux does  not  deny  access  to  permissive
45       process  types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
46       ated.
47
48

BOOLEANS

50       SELinux policy is customizable based on least  access  required.   lsmd
51       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52       manipulate the policy and run lsmd with the tightest access possible.

PORT TYPES

167       SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
168
169       You can see the types associated with a port  by  using  the  following
170       command:
171
172       semanage port -l
173
174
175       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these ports.
176       SELinux lsmd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their lsmd
177       processes in as secure a method as possible.
178
179       The following port types are defined for lsmd:
180
181
182       lsm_plugin_port_t
183
184
185
186       Default Defined Ports:
187                 tcp 18700
188

MANAGED FILES

190       The  SELinux process type lsmd_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
191       lowing file types.  The paths listed are the default  paths  for  these
192       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

FILE CONTEXTS

235       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
236       type.
237
238       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
239
240       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  files.
241       SELinux lsmd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their lsmd
242       processes in as secure a method as possible.
243
244       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
245
246       SELinux defines the file context types for the lsmd, if you  wanted  to
247       store  files  with  these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
248       the semanage command  to  sepecify  alternate  labeling  and  then  use
249       restorecon to put the labels on disk.
250
251       semanage fcontext -a -t lsmd_var_run_t '/srv/mylsmd_content(/.*)?'
252       restorecon -R -v /srv/mylsmd_content
253
254       Note:  SELinux  often  uses  regular expressions to specify labels that
255       match multiple files.
256
257       The following file types are defined for lsmd:
258
259
260
261       lsmd_exec_t
262
263       - Set files with the lsmd_exec_t type, if you  want  to  transition  an
264       executable to the lsmd_t domain.
265
266
267
268       lsmd_plugin_exec_t
269
270       - Set files with the lsmd_plugin_exec_t type, if you want to transition
271       an executable to the lsmd_plugin_t domain.
272
273
274
275       lsmd_plugin_tmp_t
276
277       - Set files with the lsmd_plugin_tmp_t type, if you want to store  lsmd
278       plugin temporary files in the /tmp directories.
279
280
281
282       lsmd_unit_file_t
283
284       -  Set  files  with the lsmd_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat the
285       files as lsmd unit content.
286
287
288
289       lsmd_var_run_t
290
291       - Set files with the lsmd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the lsmd
292       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

COMMANDS

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 port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
313
314       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
315
316
317       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
318       icy settings.
