6 spamc_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the spamc processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the spamc processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11
12 The spamc processes execute with the spamc_t SELinux type. You can
13 check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command
14 with the -Z qualifier.
15
16 For example:
17
18 ps -eZ | grep spamc_t
19
20
21
23 The spamc_t SELinux type can be entered via the spamc_exec_t file type.
24
25 The default entrypoint paths for the spamc_t domain are the following:
26
27 /usr/bin/razor.*, /usr/bin/spamc, /usr/bin/pyzor, /usr/bin/sa-learn,
28 /usr/bin/spamassassin
29
31 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
32 system
33
34 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
35
36 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
37 spamc policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their spamc pro‐
38 cesses in as secure a method as possible.
39
40 The following process types are defined for spamc:
41
42 spamc_t
43
44 Note: semanage permissive -a spamc_t can be used to make the process
45 type spamc_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
46 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
47 ated.
48
49
51 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. spamc
52 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
53 manipulate the policy and run spamc with the tightest access possible.

240 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
241 type.
242
243 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
244
245 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
246 SELinux spamc policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
247 spamc processes in as secure a method as possible.
248
249 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
250
251 SELinux defines the file context types for the spamc, if you wanted to
252 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
253 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
254 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
255
256 semanage fcontext -a -t spamc_tmp_t '/srv/myspamc_content(/.*)?'
257 restorecon -R -v /srv/myspamc_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 spamc:
263
264
265
266 spamc_exec_t
267
268 - Set files with the spamc_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
269 executable to the spamc_t domain.
270
271
272 Paths:
273 /usr/bin/razor.*, /usr/bin/spamc, /usr/bin/pyzor, /usr/bin/sa-
274 learn, /usr/bin/spamassassin
275
276
277 spamc_home_t
278
279 - Set files with the spamc_home_t type, if you want to store spamc
280 files in the users home directory.
281
282
283 Paths:
284 /root/.pyzor(/.*)?, /root/.razor(/.*)?, /root/.spamd(/.*)?,
285 /root/.spamassassin(/.*)?, /home/[^/]+/.pyzor(/.*)?,
286 /home/[^/]+/.razor(/.*)?, /home/[^/]+/.spamd(/.*)?,
287 /home/[^/]+/.spamassassin(/.*)?
288
289
290 spamc_tmp_t
291
292 - Set files with the spamc_tmp_t type, if you want to store spamc tem‐
293 porary files in the /tmp directories.
294
295
296
297 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
298 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
299 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
300 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
301
302
304 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
305 mappings.
306
307 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
308 process type is permissive.
309
310 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
311 icy modules.
312
313 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
314
315
316 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
317 icy settings.
