6 modemmanager_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the modemman‐
7 ager processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the modemmanager processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The modemmanager processes execute with the modemmanager_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 modemmanager_t
20
21
22
24 The modemmanager_t SELinux type can be entered via the modemman‐
25 ager_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the modemmanager_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29
30 /usr/sbin/ModemManager, /usr/sbin/modem-manager
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 modemmanager policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 modemmanager processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for modemmanager:
43
44 modemmanager_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a modemmanager_t can be used to make the
47 process type modemmanager_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
48 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. modem‐
54 manager policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run modemmanager with the tight‐
56 est access possible.

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

197 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
198 type.
199
200 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
201
202 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
203 SELinux modemmanager policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
204 their modemmanager processes in as secure a method as possible.
205
206 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
207
208 SELinux defines the file context types for the modemmanager, if you
209 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
210 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
211 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
212
213 semanage fcontext -a -t modemmanager_unit_file_t '/srv/mymodemman‐
214 ager_content(/.*)?'
215 restorecon -R -v /srv/mymodemmanager_content
216
217 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
218 match multiple files.
219
220 The following file types are defined for modemmanager:
221
222
223
224 modemmanager_exec_t
225
226 - Set files with the modemmanager_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
227 tion an executable to the modemmanager_t domain.
228
229
230 Paths:
231 /usr/sbin/ModemManager, /usr/sbin/modem-manager
232
233
234 modemmanager_unit_file_t
235
236 - Set files with the modemmanager_unit_file_t type, if you want to
237 treat the files as modemmanager unit content.
238
239
240
241 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
242 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
243 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
244 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
245
246
248 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
249 mappings.
250
251 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
252 process type is permissive.
253
254 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
255 icy modules.
256
257 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
258
259
260 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
261 icy settings.
