6 telepathy_logger_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the
7 telepathy_logger processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the telepathy_logger processes via
11 flexible mandatory access control.
12
13 The telepathy_logger processes execute with the telepathy_logger_t
14 SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by exe‐
15 cuting the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep telepathy_logger_t
20
21
22
24 The telepathy_logger_t SELinux type can be entered via the telepa‐
25 thy_logger_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the telepathy_logger_t domain are the
28 following:
29
30 /usr/libexec/telepathy-logger
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 telepathy_logger policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 telepathy_logger processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for telepathy_logger:
43
44 telepathy_logger_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a telepathy_logger_t can be used to make the
47 process type telepathy_logger_t permissive. SELinux does not deny
48 access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) mes‐
49 sages are still generated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. telepa‐
54 thy_logger policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run telepathy_logger with the
56 tightest 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 telepathy_logger_t can manage files labeled
98 with the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths
99 for these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC
100 permissions.

146 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
147 type.
148
149 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
150
151 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
152 SELinux telepathy_logger policy is very flexible allowing users to set‐
153 up their telepathy_logger processes in as secure a method as possible.
154
155 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
156
157 SELinux defines the file context types for the telepathy_logger, if you
158 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
159 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
160 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
161
162 semanage fcontext -a -t telepathy_logger_data_home_t '/srv/mytelepa‐
163 thy_logger_content(/.*)?'
164 restorecon -R -v /srv/mytelepathy_logger_content
165
166 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
167 match multiple files.
168
169 The following file types are defined for telepathy_logger:
170
171
172
173 telepathy_logger_cache_home_t
174
175 - Set files with the telepathy_logger_cache_home_t type, if you want to
176 store telepathy logger cache files in the users home directory.
177
178
179
180 telepathy_logger_data_home_t
181
182 - Set files with the telepathy_logger_data_home_t type, if you want to
183 store telepathy logger data files in the users home directory.
184
185
186
187 telepathy_logger_exec_t
188
189 - Set files with the telepathy_logger_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
190 sition an executable to the telepathy_logger_t domain.
191
192
193
194 telepathy_logger_tmp_t
195
196 - Set files with the telepathy_logger_tmp_t type, if you want to store
197 telepathy logger temporary files in the /tmp directories.
198
199
200
201 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
202 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
203 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
204 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
205
206
208 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
209 mappings.
210
211 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
212 process type is permissive.
213
214 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
215 icy modules.
216
217 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
218
219
220 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
221 icy settings.
