6 oddjob_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the oddjob pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the oddjob processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The oddjob processes execute with the oddjob_t SELinux type. You can
14 check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command
15 with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep oddjob_t
20
21
22
24 The oddjob_t SELinux type can be entered via the oddjob_exec_t file
25 type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the oddjob_t domain are the following:
28
29 /usr/sbin/oddjobd, /usr/bin/oddjob_request
30
32 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
33 system
34
35 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
36
37 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
38 oddjob policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their oddjob
39 processes in as secure a method as possible.
40
41 The following process types are defined for oddjob:
42
43 oddjob_t, oddjob_mkhomedir_t
44
45 Note: semanage permissive -a oddjob_t can be used to make the process
46 type oddjob_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
47 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
48 ated.
49
50
52 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. oddjob
53 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
54 manipulate the policy and run oddjob with the tightest access possible.
55
56
57
58 If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from
59 ldap rather then using a sssd server, you must turn on the authlo‐
60 gin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.
61
62 setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
63
64
65
66 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
67 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
68
69 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
70
71
72
73 If you want to allow httpd processes to run IPA helper, you must turn
74 on the httpd_run_ipa boolean. Disabled by default.
75
76 setsebool -P httpd_run_ipa 1
77
78
79
80 If you want to allow Apache to run in stickshift mode, not transition
81 to passenger, you must turn on the httpd_run_stickshift boolean. Dis‐
82 abled by default.
83
84 setsebool -P httpd_run_stickshift 1
85
86
87
88 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
89 must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
90
91 setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
92
93
94
95 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
96 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
97
98 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
99
100
101
102 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
103 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Disabled by default.
104
105 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
106
107
108
110 The SELinux process type oddjob_t can manage files labeled with the
111 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
112 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

159 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
160 type.
161
162 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
163
164 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
165 SELinux oddjob policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
166 oddjob processes in as secure a method as possible.
167
168 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
169
170 SELinux defines the file context types for the oddjob, if you wanted to
171 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
172 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
173 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
174
175 semanage fcontext -a -t oddjob_unit_file_t '/srv/myoddjob_con‐
176 tent(/.*)?'
177 restorecon -R -v /srv/myoddjob_content
178
179 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
180 match multiple files.
181
182 The following file types are defined for oddjob:
183
184
185
186 oddjob_exec_t
187
188 - Set files with the oddjob_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
189 executable to the oddjob_t domain.
190
191
192 Paths:
193 /usr/sbin/oddjobd, /usr/bin/oddjob_request
194
195
196 oddjob_mkhomedir_exec_t
197
198 - Set files with the oddjob_mkhomedir_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
199 sition an executable to the oddjob_mkhomedir_t domain.
200
201
202 Paths:
203 /usr/lib/oddjob/mkhomedir, /usr/sbin/mkhomedir_helper,
204 /usr/libexec/oddjob/mkhomedir
205
206
207 oddjob_unit_file_t
208
209 - Set files with the oddjob_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat the
210 files as oddjob unit content.
211
212
213
214 oddjob_var_run_t
215
216 - Set files with the oddjob_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
217 oddjob files under the /run or /var/run directory.
218
219
220
221 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
222 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
223 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
224 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
225
226
228 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
229 mappings.
230
231 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
232 process type is permissive.
233
234 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
235 icy modules.
236
237 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
238
239
240 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
241 icy settings.
