6 fsdaemon_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the fsdaemon pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the fsdaemon processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The fsdaemon processes execute with the fsdaemon_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 fsdaemon_t
20
21
22
24 The fsdaemon_t SELinux type can be entered via the fsdaemon_exec_t file
25 type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the fsdaemon_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29
30 /usr/sbin/smartd
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 fsdaemon policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their fsdaemon
40 processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for fsdaemon:
43
44 fsdaemon_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a fsdaemon_t can be used to make the process
47 type fsdaemon_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
48 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
49 ated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. fsdae‐
54 mon policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
55 you to manipulate the policy and run fsdaemon with the tightest access
56 possible.
57

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
96 If you want to determine whether smartmon can support devices on 3ware
97 controllers, you must turn on the smartmon_3ware boolean. Disabled by
98 default.
99
100 setsebool -P smartmon_3ware 1
101
102
103
104 If you want to allow confined virtual guests to manage nfs files, you
105 must turn on the virt_use_nfs boolean. Disabled by default.
106
107 setsebool -P virt_use_nfs 1
108
109
110
111 If you want to allow confined virtual guests to manage cifs files, you
112 must turn on the virt_use_samba boolean. Disabled by default.
113
114 setsebool -P virt_use_samba 1
115
116
117
119 The SELinux process type fsdaemon_t can manage files labeled with the
120 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
121 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

183 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
184 type.
185
186 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
187
188 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
189 SELinux fsdaemon policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
190 fsdaemon processes in as secure a method as possible.
191
192 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
193
194 SELinux defines the file context types for the fsdaemon, if you wanted
195 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
196 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
197 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
198
199 semanage fcontext -a -t fsdaemon_tmp_t '/srv/myfsdaemon_content(/.*)?'
200 restorecon -R -v /srv/myfsdaemon_content
201
202 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
203 match multiple files.
204
205 The following file types are defined for fsdaemon:
206
207
208
209 fsdaemon_exec_t
210
211 - Set files with the fsdaemon_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
212 executable to the fsdaemon_t domain.
213
214
215
216 fsdaemon_initrc_exec_t
217
218 - Set files with the fsdaemon_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
219 sition an executable to the fsdaemon_initrc_t domain.
220
221
222
223 fsdaemon_tmp_t
224
225 - Set files with the fsdaemon_tmp_t type, if you want to store fsdaemon
226 temporary files in the /tmp directories.
227
228
229
230 fsdaemon_var_lib_t
231
232 - Set files with the fsdaemon_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the
233 fsdaemon files under the /var/lib directory.
234
235
236
237 fsdaemon_var_run_t
238
239 - Set files with the fsdaemon_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
240 fsdaemon files under the /run or /var/run directory.
241
242
243
244 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
245 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
246 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
247 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
248
249
251 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
252 mappings.
253
254 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
255 process type is permissive.
256
257 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
258 icy modules.
259
260 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
261
262
263 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
264 icy settings.
