6 telepathy_salut_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the
7 telepathy_salut processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the telepathy_salut processes via flex‐
11 ible mandatory access control.
12
13 The telepathy_salut processes execute with the telepathy_salut_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 telepathy_salut_t
20
21
22
24 The telepathy_salut_t SELinux type can be entered via the telepa‐
25 thy_salut_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the telepathy_salut_t domain are the
28 following:
29
30 /usr/libexec/telepathy-salut
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 telepathy_salut policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 telepathy_salut processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for telepathy_salut:
43
44 telepathy_salut_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a telepathy_salut_t can be used to make the
47 process type telepathy_salut_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access
48 to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
49 still generated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. telepa‐
54 thy_salut policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run telepathy_salut 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‐

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

116
117 setsebool -P global_ssp 1
118
119

122 must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
123
124 setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
125
126

129 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
130
131 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
132
133
134
135 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
136 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Disabled by default.

142 If you want to allow the Telepathy connection managers to connect to
143 any network port, you must turn on the telepathy_connect_all_ports
144 boolean. Disabled by default.
145
146 setsebool -P telepathy_connect_all_ports 1
147
148
149
150 If you want to allow the Telepathy connection managers to connect to

152 nect_generic_network_ports boolean. Enabled by default.
153
154 setsebool -P telepathy_tcp_connect_generic_network_ports 1
155
156
157
159 The SELinux process type telepathy_salut_t can manage files labeled
160 with the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths
161 for these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC
162 permissions.
163
164 cache_home_t
165
166 /root/.cache(/.*)?
167 /home/[^/]+/.nv(/.*)?
168 /home/[^/]+/.cache(/.*)?
169
170
172 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
173 type.
174
175 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
176
177 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
178 SELinux telepathy_salut policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
179 their telepathy_salut processes in as secure a method as possible.
180
181 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
182
183 SELinux defines the file context types for the telepathy_salut, if you
184 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
185 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
186 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
187
188 semanage fcontext -a -t telepathy_salut_tmp_t '/srv/mytelepa‐
189 thy_salut_content(/.*)?'
190 restorecon -R -v /srv/mytelepathy_salut_content
191
192 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
193 match multiple files.
194
195 The following file types are defined for telepathy_salut:
196
197
198
199 telepathy_salut_exec_t
200
201 - Set files with the telepathy_salut_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
202 sition an executable to the telepathy_salut_t domain.
203
204
205
206 telepathy_salut_tmp_t
207
208 - Set files with the telepathy_salut_tmp_t type, if you want to store
209 telepathy salut temporary files in the /tmp directories.
210
211
212
213 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
214 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
215 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
216 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
217
218
220 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
221 mappings.
222
223 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
224 process type is permissive.
225
226 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
227 icy modules.
228
229 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
230
231
232 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
233 icy settings.
