NAME

6       pesign_selinux  -  Security  Enhanced  Linux Policy for the pesign pro‐
7       cesses
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux  secures  the  pesign  processes  via  flexible
11       mandatory access control.
12
13       The  pesign  processes  execute with the pesign_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 pesign_t
20
21
22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The  pesign_t  SELinux  type  can be entered via the pesign_exec_t file
25       type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the pesign_t domain are the following:
28
29       /usr/bin/pesign
30

PROCESS TYPES

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       pesign policy is very flexible allowing users  to  setup  their  pesign
39       processes in as secure a method as possible.
40
41       The following process types are defined for pesign:
42
43       pesign_t
44
45       Note:  semanage  permissive -a pesign_t can be used to make the process
46       type pesign_t permissive. SELinux does not deny  access  to  permissive
47       process  types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
48       ated.

50

BOOLEANS

52       SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.   pesign
53       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
54       manipulate the policy and run pesign 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 confined applications to run with kerberos, you
74       must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
75
76       setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
77
78
79
80       If you want to allow system to run with  NIS,  you  must  turn  on  the
81       nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
82
83       setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
84
85
86
87       If  you  want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
88       you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Disabled by default.
89
90       setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
91

MANAGED FILES

95       The SELinux process type pesign_t can manage  files  labeled  with  the
96       following file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for these
97       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

FILE CONTEXTS

156       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
157       type.
158
159       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
160
161       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these files.
162       SELinux pesign policy is very flexible allowing users  to  setup  their
163       pesign processes in as secure a method as possible.
164
165       EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
166
167
168       pesign  policy  stores  data with multiple different file context types
169       under the /var/run/pesign directory.  If you would like  to  store  the
170       data  in a different directory you can use the semanage command to cre‐
171       ate an equivalence mapping.  If you wanted to store this data under the
172       /srv dirctory you would execute the following command:
173
174       semanage fcontext -a -e /var/run/pesign /srv/pesign
175       restorecon -R -v /srv/pesign
176
177       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
178
179       SELinux defines the file context types for the pesign, if you wanted to
180       store files with these types in a diffent paths, you  need  to  execute
181       the  semanage  command  to  sepecify  alternate  labeling  and then use
182       restorecon to put the labels on disk.
183
184       semanage fcontext -a -t pesign_tmp_t '/srv/mypesign_content(/.*)?'
185       restorecon -R -v /srv/mypesign_content
186
187       Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions  to  specify  labels  that
188       match multiple files.
189
190       The following file types are defined for pesign:
191
192
193
194       pesign_exec_t
195
196       -  Set  files with the pesign_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
197       executable to the pesign_t domain.
198
199
200
201       pesign_tmp_t
202
203       - Set files with the pesign_tmp_t type, if you  want  to  store  pesign
204       temporary files in the /tmp directories.
205
206
207
208       pesign_unit_file_t
209
210       -  Set files with the pesign_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat the
211       files as pesign unit content.
212
213
214
215       pesign_var_run_t
216
217       - Set files with the pesign_var_run_t type, if you want  to  store  the
218       pesign files under the /run or /var/run directory.
219
220
221       Paths:
222            /var/run/pesign(/.*)?, /var/run/pesign.pid
223
224
225       Note:  File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
226       If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use  the
227       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
228       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
229
230

COMMANDS

232       semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default  file  context
233       mappings.
234
235       semanage  permissive  can  also  be used to manipulate whether or not a
236       process type is permissive.
237
238       semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove  pol‐
239       icy modules.
240
241       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
242
243
244       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
245       icy settings.
