6 eventlogd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the eventlogd
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the eventlogd processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The eventlogd processes execute with the eventlogd_t SELinux type. You
14 can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps com‐
15 mand with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep eventlogd_t
20
21
22
24 The eventlogd_t SELinux type can be entered via the eventlogd_exec_t
25 file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the eventlogd_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29
30 /usr/sbin/eventlogd, /opt/likewise/sbin/eventlogd
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 eventlogd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their event‐
40 logd processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for eventlogd:
43
44 eventlogd_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a eventlogd_t can be used to make the
47 process type eventlogd_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. event‐
54 logd policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
55 you to manipulate the policy and run eventlogd with the tightest access
56 possible.
57
58
59
60 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
61 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
62
63 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
64
65
66
68 The SELinux process type eventlogd_t can manage files labeled with the
69 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
70 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

118 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
119 type.
120
121 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
122
123 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
124 SELinux eventlogd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
125 eventlogd processes in as secure a method as possible.
126
127 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
128
129 SELinux defines the file context types for the eventlogd, if you wanted
130 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
131 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
132 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
133
134 semanage fcontext -a -t eventlogd_var_lib_t '/srv/myeventlogd_con‐
135 tent(/.*)?'
136 restorecon -R -v /srv/myeventlogd_content
137
138 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
139 match multiple files.
140
141 The following file types are defined for eventlogd:
142
143
144
145 eventlogd_exec_t
146
147 - Set files with the eventlogd_exec_t type, if you want to transition
148 an executable to the eventlogd_t domain.
149
150
151 Paths:
152 /usr/sbin/eventlogd, /opt/likewise/sbin/eventlogd
153
154
155 eventlogd_var_lib_t
156
157 - Set files with the eventlogd_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the
158 eventlogd files under the /var/lib directory.
159
160
161 Paths:
162 /var/lib/likewise/db/lwi_events.db, /var/lib/likewise-
163 open/db/lwi_events.db
164
165
166 eventlogd_var_run_t
167
168 - Set files with the eventlogd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
169 eventlogd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
170
171
172
173 eventlogd_var_socket_t
174
175 - Set files with the eventlogd_var_socket_t type, if you want to treat
176 the files as eventlogd var socket data.
177
178
179 Paths:
180 /var/lib/likewise/.eventlog, /var/lib/likewise/rpc/socket,
181 /var/lib/likewise-open/.eventlog, /var/lib/likewise-
182 open/rpc/socket
183
184
185 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
186 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
187 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
188 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
189
190
192 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
193 mappings.
194
195 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
196 process type is permissive.
197
198 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
199 icy modules.
200
201 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
202
203
204 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
205 icy settings.
