6 openwsman_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the openwsman
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the openwsman processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The openwsman processes execute with the openwsman_t SELinux type. You
14 can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps com‐
15 mand with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep openwsman_t
20
21
22
24 The openwsman_t SELinux type can be entered via the openwsman_exec_t
25 file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the openwsman_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29
30 /usr/sbin/openwsmand
31
33 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
34 system
35
36 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
37
38 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
39 openwsman policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their openws‐
40 man processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for openwsman:
43
44 openwsman_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a openwsman_t can be used to make the
47 process type openwsman_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
48 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
49 still generated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. openws‐
54 man policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
55 you to manipulate the policy and run openwsman with the tightest access
56 possible.
57
58
59
60 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
64 setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
65
66
67
68 If you want to deny user domains applications to map a memory region as
69 both executable and writable, this is dangerous and the executable
70 should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the deny_execmem bool‐
71 ean. Enabled by default.
72
73 setsebool -P deny_execmem 1
74
75
76
77 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
78 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
79
80 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
81
82
83
84 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
85 must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
86
87 setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
88
89
90
91 If you want to control the ability to mmap a low area of the address
92 space, as configured by /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr, you must turn on
93 the mmap_low_allowed boolean. Disabled by default.
94
95 setsebool -P mmap_low_allowed 1
96
97
98
99 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
100 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
101
102 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
103
104
105
106 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
107 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Disabled by default.
108
109 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
110
111
112
113 If you want to disable kernel module loading, you must turn on the
114 secure_mode_insmod boolean. Enabled by default.
115
116 setsebool -P secure_mode_insmod 1
117
118
119
120 If you want to allow unconfined executables to make their heap memory
121 executable. Doing this is a really bad idea. Probably indicates a
122 badly coded executable, but could indicate an attack. This executable
123 should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the selin‐
124 uxuser_execheap boolean. Disabled by default.
125
126 setsebool -P selinuxuser_execheap 1
127
128
129
130 If you want to allow unconfined executables to make their stack exe‐
131 cutable. This should never, ever be necessary. Probably indicates a
132 badly coded executable, but could indicate an attack. This executable
133 should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the selinuxuser_exec‐
134 stack boolean. Enabled by default.
135
136 setsebool -P selinuxuser_execstack 1
137
138
139
141 The SELinux process type openwsman_t can manage files labeled with the
142 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
143 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
144
145 file_type
146
147 all files on the system
148
149
151 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
152 type.
153
154 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
155
156 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
157 SELinux openwsman policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
158 openwsman processes in as secure a method as possible.
159
160 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
161
162 SELinux defines the file context types for the openwsman, if you wanted
163 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
164 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
165 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
166
167 semanage fcontext -a -t openwsman_unit_file_t '/srv/myopenwsman_con‐
168 tent(/.*)?'
169 restorecon -R -v /srv/myopenwsman_content
170
171 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
172 match multiple files.
173
174 The following file types are defined for openwsman:
175
176
177
178 openwsman_exec_t
179
180 - Set files with the openwsman_exec_t type, if you want to transition
181 an executable to the openwsman_t domain.
182
183
184
185 openwsman_log_t
186
187 - Set files with the openwsman_log_t type, if you want to treat the
188 data as openwsman log data, usually stored under the /var/log direc‐
189 tory.
190
191
192
193 openwsman_run_t
194
195 - Set files with the openwsman_run_t type, if you want to treat the
196 files as openwsman run data.
197
198
199
200 openwsman_tmp_t
201
202 - Set files with the openwsman_tmp_t type, if you want to store openws‐
203 man temporary files in the /tmp directories.
204
205
206
207 openwsman_tmpfs_t
208
209 - Set files with the openwsman_tmpfs_t type, if you want to store open‐
210 wsman files on a tmpfs file system.
211
212
213
214 openwsman_unit_file_t
215
216 - Set files with the openwsman_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat
217 the files as openwsman unit content.
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.
