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

54
55
56 If you want to allow the Irssi IRC Client to connect to any port, and
57 to bind to any unreserved port, you must turn on the
58 irssi_use_full_network boolean. Disabled by default.
59
60 setsebool -P irssi_use_full_network 1
61
62
63
64 If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from
65 ldap rather then using a sssd server, you must turn on the authlo‐
66 gin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.
67
68 setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
69
70
71
72 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
73 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
74
75 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
76
77
78
79 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
80 must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
81
82 setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
83
84
85
86 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
87 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
88
89 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
90
91
92
93 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
94 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Enabled by default.
95
96 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
97
98
99
101 The SELinux process type irssi_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
102 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
103 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

125 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
126 mappings.
127
128 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
129 process type is permissive.
130
131 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
132 icy modules.
133
134 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
135
136
137 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
138 icy settings.
