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

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‐

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 determine whether Gitosis can send mail, you must turn

116
117 setsebool -P gitosis_can_sendmail 1
118
119
120
121 If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn
122 on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default.
123
124 setsebool -P global_ssp 1
125
126
127
128 If you want to allow http daemon to send mail, you must turn on the
129 httpd_can_sendmail boolean. Disabled by default.
130
131 setsebool -P httpd_can_sendmail 1
132
133
134
135 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you

160
161
162
164 The SELinux process type postfix_postqueue_t can manage files labeled
165 with the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths
166 for these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC
167 permissions.
168
169 anon_inodefs_t
170
171
172 arpwatch_tmp_t
173
174
175 postfix_var_run_t
176
177 /var/spool/postfix/pid/.*
178
179
181 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
182 type.
183
184 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
185
186 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
187 SELinux postfix_postqueue policy is very flexible allowing users to
188 setup their postfix_postqueue processes in as secure a method as possi‐
189 ble.
190
191 The following file types are defined for postfix_postqueue:
192
193
194
195 postfix_postqueue_exec_t
196
197 - Set files with the postfix_postqueue_exec_t type, if you want to
198 transition an executable to the postfix_postqueue_t domain.
199
200
201
202 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
203 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
204 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
205 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
206
207
209 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
210 mappings.
211
212 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
213 process type is permissive.
214
215 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
216 icy modules.
217
218 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
219
220
221 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
222 icy settings.
