6 mysqld_safe_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the
7 mysqld_safe processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the mysqld_safe processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12 The mysqld_safe processes execute with the mysqld_safe_t SELinux type.
14 You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps
15 command with the -Z qualifier.
16 For example:
18 ps -eZ | grep mysqld_safe_t
20
24 The mysqld_safe_t SELinux type can be entered via the
25 mysqld_safe_exec_t file type.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the mysqld_safe_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29 /usr/bin/mysqld_safe, /usr/libexec/mysqld_safe-scl-helper
31
33 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
34 system
35 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
37 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
39 mysqld_safe policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 mysqld_safe processes in as secure a method as possible.
41 The following process types are defined for mysqld_safe:
43 mysqld_safe_t
45 Note: semanage permissive -a mysqld_safe_t can be used to make the
47 process type mysqld_safe_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
48 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
49 still generated.
50
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
54 mysqld_safe policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run mysqld_safe with the tight‐
56 est access possible.
57 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 setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
65 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 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
72 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
76 must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
77 setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
79 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
83 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
84 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
86 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
90 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Disabled by default.
91 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
93
97 The SELinux process type mysqld_safe_t can manage files labeled with
98 the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for
99 these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC per‐
100 missions.

155 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
156 type.
157 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
159 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
161 SELinux mysqld_safe policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
162 their mysqld_safe processes in as secure a method as possible.
163 The following file types are defined for mysqld_safe:
165 mysqld_safe_exec_t
169 - Set files with the mysqld_safe_exec_t type, if you want to transition
171 an executable to the mysqld_safe_t domain.
172 Paths:
175 /usr/bin/mysqld_safe, /usr/libexec/mysqld_safe-scl-helper
176 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
179 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
180 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
181 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
182
185 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
186 mappings.
187 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
189 process type is permissive.
190 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
192 icy modules.
193 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
195 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
198 icy settings.
