6 telepathy_msn_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the telepa‐
7 thy_msn processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the telepathy_msn processes via flexi‐
11 ble mandatory access control.
12
13 The telepathy_msn processes execute with the telepathy_msn_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 telepathy_msn_t
20
21
22
24 The telepathy_msn_t SELinux type can be entered via the telepa‐
25 thy_msn_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the telepathy_msn_t domain are the
28 following:
29
30 /usr/libexec/telepathy-haze, /usr/libexec/telepathy-butterfly
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_msn policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 telepathy_msn processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for telepathy_msn:
43
44 telepathy_msn_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a telepathy_msn_t can be used to make the
47 process type telepathy_msn_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_msn policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run telepathy_msn 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‐

143 any network port, you must turn on the telepathy_connect_all_ports
144 boolean. Disabled by default.

155
156
157
159 The SELinux process type telepathy_msn_t can manage files labeled with
160 the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for
161 these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC per‐
162 missions.
163
164 cache_home_t
165
166 /root/.cache(/.*)?
167 /home/[^/]+/.nv(/.*)?
168 /home/[^/]+/.cache(/.*)?
169
170 telepathy_msn_tmp_t
171
172
173
175 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
176 type.
177
178 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
179
180 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
181 SELinux telepathy_msn policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
182 their telepathy_msn processes in as secure a method as possible.
183
184 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
185
186 SELinux defines the file context types for the telepathy_msn, if you
187 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
188 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
189 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
190
191 semanage fcontext -a -t telepathy_msn_tmp_t '/srv/mytelepathy_msn_con‐
192 tent(/.*)?'
193 restorecon -R -v /srv/mytelepathy_msn_content
194
195 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
196 match multiple files.
197
198 The following file types are defined for telepathy_msn:
199
200
201
202 telepathy_msn_exec_t
203
204 - Set files with the telepathy_msn_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
205 tion an executable to the telepathy_msn_t domain.
206
207
208 Paths:
209 /usr/libexec/telepathy-haze, /usr/libexec/telepathy-butterfly
210
211
212 telepathy_msn_tmp_t
213
214 - Set files with the telepathy_msn_tmp_t type, if you want to store
215 telepathy msn temporary files in the /tmp directories.
216
217
218
219 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
220 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
221 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
222 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
223
224
226 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
227 mappings.
228
229 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
230 process type is permissive.
231
232 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
233 icy modules.
234
235 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
236
237
238 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
239 icy settings.
