6 spamd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the spamd processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the spamd processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11
12 The spamd processes execute with the spamd_t SELinux type. You can
13 check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command
14 with the -Z qualifier.
15
16 For example:
17
18 ps -eZ | grep spamd_t
19
20
21
23 The spamd_t SELinux type can be entered via the spamd_exec_t file type.
24
25 The default entrypoint paths for the spamd_t domain are the following:
26
27 /usr/bin/spamd, /usr/bin/pyzord, /usr/sbin/spamd, /usr/sbin/spampd,
28 /usr/bin/mimedefang, /usr/bin/mimedefang-multiplexor,
29 /usr/libexec/mimedefang-wrapper
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 spamd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their spamd pro‐
39 cesses in as secure a method as possible.
40
41 The following process types are defined for spamd:
42
43 spamd_update_t, spamd_t
44
45 Note: semanage permissive -a spamd_t can be used to make the process
46 type spamd_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. spamd
53 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
54 manipulate the policy and run spamd with the tightest access possible.
55
56
57
58 If you want to allow spamd to read/write user home directories, you
59 must turn on the spamd_enable_home_dirs boolean. Enabled by default.
60
61 setsebool -P spamd_enable_home_dirs 1
62
63
64
65 If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from
66 ldap rather then using a sssd server, you must turn on the authlo‐
67 gin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.
68
69 setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
70
71
72
73 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
74 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
75
76 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
77
78
79
80 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
81 must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
82
83 setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
84
85
86
87 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
88 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
89
90 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
91
92
93
94 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
95 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Disabled by default.
96
97 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
98
99
100
102 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
103
104 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
105 command:
106
107 semanage port -l
108
109
110 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
111 SELinux spamd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
112 spamd processes in as secure a method as possible.
113
114 The following port types are defined for spamd:
115
116
117 spamd_port_t
118
119
120
121 Default Defined Ports:
122 tcp 783,10026,10027
123
125 The SELinux process type spamd_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
126 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
127 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

266 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
267 type.
268
269 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
270
271 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
272 SELinux spamd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
273 spamd processes in as secure a method as possible.
274
275 EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
276
277
278 spamd policy stores data with multiple different file context types
279 under the /var/lib/spamassassin directory. If you would like to store
280 the data in a different directory you can use the semanage command to
281 create an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this data under
282 the /srv dirctory you would execute the following command:
283
284 semanage fcontext -a -e /var/lib/spamassassin /srv/spamassassin
285 restorecon -R -v /srv/spamassassin
286
287 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
288
289 SELinux defines the file context types for the spamd, if you wanted to
290 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
291 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
292 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
293
294 semanage fcontext -a -t spamd_etc_t '/srv/myspamd_content(/.*)?'
295 restorecon -R -v /srv/myspamd_content
296
297 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
298 match multiple files.
299

342
343
344 spamd_log_t

403
404
405 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
406 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
407 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
408 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
409
410
412 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
413 mappings.
414
415 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
416 process type is permissive.
417
418 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
419 icy modules.
420
421 semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
422
423 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
424

426 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
427 icy settings.
