6 telepathy_salut_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the
7 telepathy_salut processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the telepathy_salut processes via flex‐
11 ible mandatory access control.
12
13 The telepathy_salut processes execute with the telepathy_salut_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_salut_t
20
21
22
24 The telepathy_salut_t SELinux type can be entered via the telepa‐
25 thy_salut_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the telepathy_salut_t domain are the
28 following:
29
30 /usr/libexec/telepathy-salut
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_salut policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 telepathy_salut processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for telepathy_salut:
43
44 telepathy_salut_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a telepathy_salut_t can be used to make the
47 process type telepathy_salut_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access
48 to 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. telepa‐
54 thy_salut policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run telepathy_salut 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
96 If you want to allow the Telepathy connection managers to connect to
97 any network port, you must turn on the telepathy_connect_all_ports
98 boolean. Disabled by default.
99
100 setsebool -P telepathy_connect_all_ports 1
101
102
103
104 If you want to allow the Telepathy connection managers to connect to
105 any generic TCP port, you must turn on the telepathy_tcp_con‐
106 nect_generic_network_ports boolean. Enabled by default.
107
108 setsebool -P telepathy_tcp_connect_generic_network_ports 1
109
110
111
113 The SELinux process type telepathy_salut_t can manage files labeled
114 with the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths
115 for these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC
116 permissions.
117
118 cache_home_t
119
120 /root/.cache(/.*)?
121 /home/[^/]+/.nv(/.*)?
122 /home/[^/]+/.cache(/.*)?
123
124
126 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
127 type.
128
129 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
130
131 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
132 SELinux telepathy_salut policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
133 their telepathy_salut processes in as secure a method as possible.
134
135 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
136
137 SELinux defines the file context types for the telepathy_salut, if you
138 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
139 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
140 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
141
142 semanage fcontext -a -t telepathy_salut_tmp_t '/srv/mytelepa‐
143 thy_salut_content(/.*)?'
144 restorecon -R -v /srv/mytelepathy_salut_content
145
146 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
147 match multiple files.
148
149 The following file types are defined for telepathy_salut:
150
151
152
153 telepathy_salut_exec_t
154
155 - Set files with the telepathy_salut_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
156 sition an executable to the telepathy_salut_t domain.
157
158
159
160 telepathy_salut_tmp_t
161
162 - Set files with the telepathy_salut_tmp_t type, if you want to store
163 telepathy salut temporary files in the /tmp directories.
164
165
166
167 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
168 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
169 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
170 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
171
172
174 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
175 mappings.
176
177 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
178 process type is permissive.
179
180 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
181 icy modules.
182
183 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
184
185
186 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
187 icy settings.
