NAME

6       svirt_kvm_net_selinux   -   Security  Enhanced  Linux  Policy  for  the
7       svirt_kvm_net processes
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the svirt_kvm_net processes via  flexi‐
11       ble mandatory access control.
12
13       The  svirt_kvm_net  processes  execute with the svirt_kvm_net_t SELinux
14       type. You can check if you have these processes  running  by  executing
15       the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17       For example:
18
19       ps -eZ | grep svirt_kvm_net_t

PROCESS TYPES

24       SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
25       system
26
27       You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
28
29       Policy governs the access confined processes have  to  files.   SELinux
30       svirt_kvm_net  policy  is  very  flexible allowing users to setup their
31       svirt_kvm_net processes in as secure a method as possible.
32
33       The following process types are defined for svirt_kvm_net:
34
35       svirt_kvm_net_t
36
37       Note: semanage permissive -a svirt_kvm_net_t can be used  to  make  the
38       process  type  svirt_kvm_net_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access
39       to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
40       still generated.

MCS Constrained

44       The  SELinux  process  type  svirt_kvm_net_t  is an MCS (Multi Category
45       Security) constrained type.  Sometimes this separation is  referred  to
46       as  sVirt. These types are usually used for securing multi-tenant envi‐
47       ronments, such as virtualization, containers or  separation  of  users.
48       The  tools used to launch MCS types, pick out a different MCS label for
49       each process group.
50
51       For    example    one    process     might     be     launched     with
52       svirt_kvm_net_t:s0:c1,c2,    and    another   process   launched   with
53       svirt_kvm_net_t:s0:c3,c4. The SELinux kernel  only  allows  these  pro‐
54       cesses  can  only  write to content with a matching MCS label, or a MCS
55       Label of s0. A process running with the MCS level of  s0:c1,c2  is  not
56       allowed to write to content with the MCS label of s0:c3,c4

BOOLEANS

60       SELinux   policy  is  customizable  based  on  least  access  required.
61       svirt_kvm_net policy is extremely flexible  and  has  several  booleans
62       that  allow you to manipulate the policy and run svirt_kvm_net with the
63       tightest access possible.
64
65
66
67       If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from
68       ldap  rather  then  using  a  sssd server, you must turn on the authlo‐
69       gin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.
70
71       setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
72
73
74
75       If you want to deny any process from ptracing or  debugging  any  other
76       processes,  you  must  turn  on  the  deny_ptrace  boolean.  Enabled by
77       default.
78
79       setsebool -P deny_ptrace 1
80
81
82
83       If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
84       on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
85
86       setsebool -P fips_mode 1
87
88
89
90       If  you  want  to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
91       must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
92
93       setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
94
95
96
97       If you want to allow system to run with  NIS,  you  must  turn  on  the
98       nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
99
100       setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
101
102
103
104       If  you  want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
105       you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Enabled by default.
106
107       setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
108
109
110
111       If you want to allow sandbox containers to  send  audit  messages,  you
112       must turn on the virt_sandbox_use_audit boolean. Enabled by default.
113
114       setsebool -P virt_sandbox_use_audit 1
115
116
117
118       If  you  want  to allow sandbox containers to use netlink system calls,
119       you must turn on  the  virt_sandbox_use_netlink  boolean.  Disabled  by
120       default.
121
122       setsebool -P virt_sandbox_use_netlink 1

MANAGED FILES

127       The  SELinux process type svirt_kvm_net_t can manage files labeled with
128       the following file types.  The paths listed are the default  paths  for
129       these  file  types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC per‐
130       missions.
