6 ypbind_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the ypbind pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the ypbind processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The ypbind processes execute with the ypbind_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 ypbind_t
20
21
22
24 The ypbind_t SELinux type can be entered via the ypbind_exec_t file
25 type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the ypbind_t domain are the following:
28
29 /sbin/ypbind, /usr/sbin/ypbind
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 ypbind policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their ypbind
39 processes in as secure a method as possible.
40
41 The following process types are defined for ypbind:
42
43 ypbind_t
44
45 Note: semanage permissive -a ypbind_t can be used to make the process
46 type ypbind_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. ypbind
53 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
54 manipulate the policy and run ypbind with the tightest access possible.

136
137
138
140 The SELinux process type ypbind_t can manage files labeled with the
141 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
142 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

192 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
193 type.
194
195 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
196
197 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
198 SELinux ypbind policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
199 ypbind processes in as secure a method as possible.
200
201 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
202
203 SELinux defines the file context types for the ypbind, if you wanted to
204 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
205 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
206 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
207
208 semanage fcontext -a -t ypbind_var_run_t '/srv/myypbind_content(/.*)?'
209 restorecon -R -v /srv/myypbind_content
210
211 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
212 match multiple files.
213
214 The following file types are defined for ypbind:
215
216
217
218 ypbind_exec_t
219
220 - Set files with the ypbind_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
221 executable to the ypbind_t domain.
222
223
224 Paths:
225 /sbin/ypbind, /usr/sbin/ypbind
226
227
228 ypbind_initrc_exec_t
229
230 - Set files with the ypbind_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
231 tion an executable to the ypbind_initrc_t domain.
232
233
234
235 ypbind_tmp_t
236
237 - Set files with the ypbind_tmp_t type, if you want to store ypbind
238 temporary files in the /tmp directories.
239
240
241
242 ypbind_unit_file_t
243
244 - Set files with the ypbind_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat the
245 files as ypbind unit content.
246
247
248
249 ypbind_var_run_t
250
251 - Set files with the ypbind_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
252 ypbind files under the /run or /var/run directory.
253
254
255
256 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
257 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
258 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
259 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
260
261
263 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
264 mappings.
265
266 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
267 process type is permissive.
268
269 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
270 icy modules.
271
272 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
273
274
275 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
276 icy settings.
