6 oddjob_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the oddjob pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the oddjob processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The oddjob processes execute with the oddjob_t SELinux type. You can
14 check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command
15 with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep oddjob_t
20
21
22
24 The oddjob_t SELinux type can be entered via the oddjob_exec_t file
25 type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the oddjob_t domain are the following:
28
29 /usr/sbin/oddjobd, /usr/bin/oddjob_request
30
32 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
33 system
34
35 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
36
37 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
38 oddjob policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their oddjob
39 processes in as secure a method as possible.
40
41 The following process types are defined for oddjob:
42
43 oddjob_t, oddjob_mkhomedir_t
44
45 Note: semanage permissive -a oddjob_t can be used to make the process
46 type oddjob_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
47 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
48 ated.
49
50
52 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. oddjob
53 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
54 manipulate the policy and run oddjob with the tightest access possible.

233 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
234 type.
235
236 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
237
238 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
239 SELinux oddjob policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
240 oddjob processes in as secure a method as possible.
241
242 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
243
244 SELinux defines the file context types for the oddjob, if you wanted to
245 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
246 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
247 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
248
249 semanage fcontext -a -t oddjob_var_run_t '/srv/myoddjob_content(/.*)?'
250 restorecon -R -v /srv/myoddjob_content
251
252 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
253 match multiple files.
254
255 The following file types are defined for oddjob:
256
257
258
259 oddjob_exec_t
260
261 - Set files with the oddjob_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
262 executable to the oddjob_t domain.
263
264
265 Paths:
266 /usr/sbin/oddjobd, /usr/bin/oddjob_request
267
268
269 oddjob_mkhomedir_exec_t
270
271 - Set files with the oddjob_mkhomedir_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
272 sition an executable to the oddjob_mkhomedir_t domain.
273
274
275 Paths:
276 /usr/lib/oddjob/mkhomedir, /usr/sbin/mkhomedir_helper,
277 /usr/libexec/oddjob/mkhomedir
278
279
280 oddjob_unit_file_t
281
282 - Set files with the oddjob_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat the
283 files as oddjob unit content.
284
285
286
287 oddjob_var_run_t
288
289 - Set files with the oddjob_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
290 oddjob files under the /run or /var/run directory.
291
292
293
294 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
295 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
296 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
297 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
298
299
301 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
302 mappings.
303
304 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
305 process type is permissive.
306
307 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
308 icy modules.
309
310 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
311
312
313 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
314 icy settings.
