6 certmonger_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the certmonger
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the certmonger processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The certmonger processes execute with the certmonger_t SELinux type.
14 You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps
15 command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep certmonger_t
20
21
22
24 The certmonger_t SELinux type can be entered via the certmonger_exec_t
25 file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the certmonger_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29
30 /usr/sbin/certmonger
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 certmonger policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their cert‐
40 monger processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for certmonger:
43
44 certmonger_t, certmonger_unconfined_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a certmonger_t can be used to make the
47 process type certmonger_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. cert‐
54 monger policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
55 you to manipulate the policy and run certmonger with the tightest
56 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‐
62 gin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.
63
64 setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
65
66
67
68 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
69 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
70
71 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
72
73
74
75 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
76 must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
77
78 setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
79
80
81
82 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
83 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
84
85 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
86
87
88
89 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
90 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Enabled by default.
91
92 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
93
94
95
97 The SELinux process type certmonger_t can manage files labeled with the
98 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
99 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

252 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
253 type.
254
255 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
256
257 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
258 SELinux certmonger policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
259 their certmonger processes in as secure a method as possible.
260
261 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
262
263 SELinux defines the file context types for the certmonger, if you
264 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
265 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
266 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
267
268 semanage fcontext -a -t certmonger_tmp_t '/srv/mycertmonger_con‐
269 tent(/.*)?'
270 restorecon -R -v /srv/mycertmonger_content
271
272 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
273 match multiple files.
274
275 The following file types are defined for certmonger:
276
277
278
279 certmonger_exec_t
280
281 - Set files with the certmonger_exec_t type, if you want to transition
282 an executable to the certmonger_t domain.
283
284
285
286 certmonger_initrc_exec_t
287
288 - Set files with the certmonger_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to
289 transition an executable to the certmonger_initrc_t domain.
290
291
292
293 certmonger_tmp_t
294
295 - Set files with the certmonger_tmp_t type, if you want to store cert‐
296 monger temporary files in the /tmp directories.
297
298
299
300 certmonger_unconfined_exec_t
301
302 - Set files with the certmonger_unconfined_exec_t type, if you want to
303 transition an executable to the certmonger_unconfined_t domain.
304
305
306
307 certmonger_unit_file_t
308
309 - Set files with the certmonger_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat
310 the files as certmonger unit content.
311
312
313 Paths:
314 /etc/systemd/system/dirsrv.target.wants(/.*)?, /usr/lib/sys‐
315 temd/system/certmonger.*
316
317
318 certmonger_var_lib_t
319
320 - Set files with the certmonger_var_lib_t type, if you want to store
321 the certmonger files under the /var/lib directory.
322
323
324
325 certmonger_var_run_t
326
327 - Set files with the certmonger_var_run_t type, if you want to store
328 the certmonger files under the /run or /var/run directory.
329
330
331
332 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
333 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
334 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
335 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
336
337
339 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
340 mappings.
341
342 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
343 process type is permissive.
344
345 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
346 icy modules.
347
348 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
349
350
351 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
352 icy settings.
