6 nmbd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the nmbd processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the nmbd processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11
12 The nmbd processes execute with the nmbd_t SELinux type. You can check
13 if you have these processes running by executing the ps command with
14 the -Z qualifier.
15
16 For example:
17
18 ps -eZ | grep nmbd_t
19
20
21
23 The nmbd_t SELinux type can be entered via the nmbd_exec_t file type.
24
25 The default entrypoint paths for the nmbd_t domain are the following:
26
27 /usr/sbin/nmbd
28
30 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
31 system
32
33 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
34
35 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
36 nmbd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their nmbd pro‐
37 cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39 The following process types are defined for nmbd:
40
41 nmbd_t
42
43 Note: semanage permissive -a nmbd_t can be used to make the process
44 type nmbd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
45 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
46 ated.
47
48
50 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. nmbd
51 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52 manipulate the policy and run nmbd with the tightest access possible.
53
54
55
56 If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from
57 ldap rather then using a sssd server, you must turn on the authlo‐
58 gin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.
59
60 setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
61
62
63
64 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
65 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
66
67 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
68
69
70
71 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
72 must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
73
74 setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
75
76
77
78 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
79 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
80
81 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
82
83
84
85 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
86 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Disabled by default.
87
88 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
89
90
91
92 If you want to allow samba to share any file/directory read only, you
93 must turn on the samba_export_all_ro boolean. Disabled by default.
94
95 setsebool -P samba_export_all_ro 1
96
97
98
99 If you want to allow samba to share any file/directory read/write, you
100 must turn on the samba_export_all_rw boolean. Disabled by default.
101
102 setsebool -P samba_export_all_rw 1
103
104
105
107 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
108
109 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
110 command:
111
112 semanage port -l
113
114
115 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
116 SELinux nmbd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their nmbd
117 processes in as secure a method as possible.
118
119 The following port types are defined for nmbd:
120
121
122 nmbd_port_t
123
124
125
126 Default Defined Ports:
127 udp 137,138
128
130 The SELinux process type nmbd_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
131 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
132 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

202 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
203 type.
204
205 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
206
207 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
208 SELinux nmbd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their nmbd
209 processes in as secure a method as possible.
210
211 EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
212
213
214 nmbd policy stores data with multiple different file context types
215 under the /var/run/samba/nmbd directory. If you would like to store
216 the data in a different directory you can use the semanage command to
217 create an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this data under
218 the /srv dirctory you would execute the following command:
219
220 semanage fcontext -a -e /var/run/samba/nmbd /srv/nmbd
221 restorecon -R -v /srv/nmbd
222
223 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
224
225 SELinux defines the file context types for the nmbd, if you wanted to
226 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
227 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
228 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
229
230 semanage fcontext -a -t nmbd_var_run_t '/srv/mynmbd_content(/.*)?'
231 restorecon -R -v /srv/mynmbd_content
232
233 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
234 match multiple files.
235
236 The following file types are defined for nmbd:
237
238
239
240 nmbd_exec_t
241
242 - Set files with the nmbd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
243 executable to the nmbd_t domain.
244
245
246
247 nmbd_var_run_t
248
249 - Set files with the nmbd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the nmbd
250 files under the /run or /var/run directory.
251
252
253 Paths:
254 /var/run/nmbd(/.*)?, /var/run/samba/nmbd(/.*)?,
255 /var/run/samba/nmbd.pid, /var/run/samba/messages.tdb,
256 /var/run/samba/namelist.debug, /var/run/samba/unexpected.tdb
257
258
259 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
260 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
261 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
262 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
263
264
266 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
267 mappings.
268
269 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
270 process type is permissive.
271
272 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
273 icy modules.
274
275 semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
276
277 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
278
279
280 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
281 icy settings.
