NAME

6       pam_timestamp_selinux   -   Security  Enhanced  Linux  Policy  for  the
7       pam_timestamp processes
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the pam_timestamp processes via  flexi‐
11       ble mandatory access control.
12
13       The  pam_timestamp  processes  execute with the pam_timestamp_t SELinux
14       type. You can check if you have these processes  running  by  executing
15       the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17       For example:
18
19       ps -eZ | grep pam_timestamp_t
20
21
22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The  pam_timestamp_t  SELinux  type  can  be  entered via the pam_time‐
25       stamp_exec_t file type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the  pam_timestamp_t  domain  are  the
28       following:
29
30       /sbin/pam_timestamp_check, /usr/sbin/pam_timestamp_check
31

PROCESS TYPES

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       pam_timestamp  policy  is  very  flexible allowing users to setup their
40       pam_timestamp processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42       The following process types are defined for pam_timestamp:
43
44       pam_timestamp_t
45
46       Note: semanage permissive -a pam_timestamp_t can be used  to  make  the
47       process  type  pam_timestamp_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access
48       to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
49       still generated.

51

BOOLEANS

53       SELinux   policy  is  customizable  based  on  least  access  required.
54       pam_timestamp policy is extremely flexible  and  has  several  booleans
55       that  allow you to manipulate the policy and run pam_timestamp with the
56       tightest access possible.
57
58
59
60       If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from
61       ldap  rather  then  using  a  sssd server, you must turn on the authlo‐
62       gin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.
63
64       setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
65
66
67
68       If you want to deny any process from ptracing or  debugging  any  other
69       processes,  you  must  turn  on  the  deny_ptrace  boolean.  Enabled by
70       default.
71
72       setsebool -P deny_ptrace 1
73
74
75
76       If you want to allow any process  to  mmap  any  file  on  system  with
77       attribute  file_type,  you must turn on the domain_can_mmap_files bool‐
78       ean. Enabled by default.
79
80       setsebool -P domain_can_mmap_files 1
81
82
83
84       If you want to allow all domains write to kmsg_device, while kernel  is
85       executed  with  systemd.log_target=kmsg parameter, you must turn on the
86       domain_can_write_kmsg boolean. Disabled by default.
87
88       setsebool -P domain_can_write_kmsg 1
89
90
91
92       If you want to allow all domains to use other domains file descriptors,

94
95       setsebool -P domain_fd_use 1
96
97
98
99       If  you  want to allow all domains to have the kernel load modules, you
100       must  turn  on  the  domain_kernel_load_modules  boolean.  Disabled  by
101       default.
102
103       setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1
104
105
106
107       If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
108       on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
109
110       setsebool -P fips_mode 1
111
112
113
114       If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn
115       on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default.
116
117       setsebool -P global_ssp 1
118
119
120
121       If  you  want  to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
122       must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
123
124       setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
125

MANAGED FILES

143       The SELinux process type pam_timestamp_t can manage files labeled  with
144       the  following  file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for
145       these file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have  DAC  per‐
146       missions.
147
148       pam_timestamp_tmp_t

151

FILE CONTEXTS

153       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
154       type.
155
156       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
157
158       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  files.
159       SELinux  pam_timestamp  policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
160       their pam_timestamp processes in as secure a method as possible.
161
162       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
163
164       SELinux defines the file context types for the  pam_timestamp,  if  you
165       wanted  to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
166       execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate  labeling  and  then
167       use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
168
169       semanage  fcontext -a -t pam_timestamp_tmp_t '/srv/mypam_timestamp_con‐
170       tent(/.*)?'
171       restorecon -R -v /srv/mypam_timestamp_content
172
173       Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions  to  specify  labels  that
174       match multiple files.
175
176       The following file types are defined for pam_timestamp:
177
178
179
180       pam_timestamp_exec_t
181
182       -  Set files with the pam_timestamp_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
183       tion an executable to the pam_timestamp_t domain.
184
185
186       Paths:
187            /sbin/pam_timestamp_check, /usr/sbin/pam_timestamp_check
188
189
190       pam_timestamp_tmp_t
191
192       - Set files with the pam_timestamp_tmp_t type, if you want to store pam
193       timestamp temporary files in the /tmp directories.
194
195
196
197       Note:  File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
198       If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use  the
199       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
200       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.

202

COMMANDS

204       semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default  file  context
205       mappings.
206
207       semanage  permissive  can  also  be used to manipulate whether or not a
208       process type is permissive.
209
210       semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove  pol‐
211       icy modules.
212
213       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
214
215
216       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
217       icy settings.
