6 pcp_pmcd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the pcp_pmcd pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the pcp_pmcd processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The pcp_pmcd processes execute with the pcp_pmcd_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 pcp_pmcd_t
20
21
22
24 The pcp_pmcd_t SELinux type can be entered via the pcp_pmcd_exec_t file
25 type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the pcp_pmcd_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29
30 /usr/bin/pmcd, /usr/libexec/pcp/bin/pmcd
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 pcp_pmcd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their pcp_pmcd
40 processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for pcp_pmcd:
43
44 pcp_pmcd_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a pcp_pmcd_t can be used to make the process
47 type pcp_pmcd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
48 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
49 ated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
54 pcp_pmcd policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run pcp_pmcd with the tightest
56 access possible.

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 allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
69 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
70
71 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
72
73
74
75 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
76 must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
77
78 setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
79
80
81
82 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
83 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
84
85 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
86
87
88
89 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
92 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
93
94
95
96 If you want to allow pcp to bind to all unreserved_ports, you must turn
97 on the pcp_bind_all_unreserved_ports boolean. Disabled by default.
98
99 setsebool -P pcp_bind_all_unreserved_ports 1
100
101
102
103 If you want to allow pcp to read generic logs, you must turn on the
104 pcp_read_generic_logs boolean. Disabled by default.
105
106 setsebool -P pcp_read_generic_logs 1
107
108
109
111 The SELinux process type pcp_pmcd_t can manage files labeled with the
112 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
113 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

172 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
173 type.
174
175 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
176
177 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
178 SELinux pcp_pmcd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
179 pcp_pmcd processes in as secure a method as possible.
180
181 The following file types are defined for pcp_pmcd:
182
183
184
185 pcp_pmcd_exec_t
186
187 - Set files with the pcp_pmcd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
188 executable to the pcp_pmcd_t domain.
189
190
191 Paths:
192 /usr/bin/pmcd, /usr/libexec/pcp/bin/pmcd
193
194
195 pcp_pmcd_initrc_exec_t
196
197 - Set files with the pcp_pmcd_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
198 sition an executable to the pcp_pmcd_initrc_t domain.
199
200
201
202 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
203 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
204 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
205 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
206
207
209 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
210 mappings.
211
212 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
213 process type is permissive.
214
215 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
216 icy modules.
217
218 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
219
220
221 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
222 icy settings.
