6 certmonger_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the certmonger
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the certmonger processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The certmonger processes execute with the certmonger_t SELinux type.
14 You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps
15 command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep certmonger_t
20
21
22
24 The certmonger_t SELinux type can be entered via the certmonger_exec_t
25 file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the certmonger_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29
30 /usr/sbin/certmonger
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 certmonger policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their cert‐
40 monger processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for certmonger:
43
44 certmonger_t, certmonger_unconfined_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a certmonger_t can be used to make the
47 process type certmonger_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. cert‐
54 monger policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
55 you to manipulate the policy and run certmonger with the tightest
56 access 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 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. Disabled 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
97 The SELinux process type certmonger_t can manage files labeled with the
98 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
99 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

253 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
254 type.
255
256 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
257
258 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
259 SELinux certmonger policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
260 their certmonger processes in as secure a method as possible.
261
262 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
263
264 SELinux defines the file context types for the certmonger, if you
265 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
266 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
267 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
268
269 semanage fcontext -a -t certmonger_tmp_t '/srv/mycertmonger_con‐
270 tent(/.*)?'
271 restorecon -R -v /srv/mycertmonger_content
272
273 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
274 match multiple files.
275
276 The following file types are defined for certmonger:
277
278
279
280 certmonger_exec_t
281
282 - Set files with the certmonger_exec_t type, if you want to transition
283 an executable to the certmonger_t domain.
284
285
286
287 certmonger_initrc_exec_t
288
289 - Set files with the certmonger_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to
290 transition an executable to the certmonger_initrc_t domain.
291
292
293
294 certmonger_tmp_t
295
296 - Set files with the certmonger_tmp_t type, if you want to store cert‐
297 monger temporary files in the /tmp directories.
298
299
300
301 certmonger_unconfined_exec_t
302
303 - Set files with the certmonger_unconfined_exec_t type, if you want to
304 transition an executable to the certmonger_unconfined_t domain.
305
306
307
308 certmonger_unit_file_t
309
310 - Set files with the certmonger_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat
311 the files as certmonger unit content.
312
313
314 Paths:
315 /etc/systemd/system/dirsrv.target.wants(/.*)?, /usr/lib/sys‐
316 temd/system/certmonger.*
317
318
319 certmonger_var_lib_t
320
321 - Set files with the certmonger_var_lib_t type, if you want to store
322 the certmonger files under the /var/lib directory.
323
324
325
326 certmonger_var_run_t
327
328 - Set files with the certmonger_var_run_t type, if you want to store
329 the certmonger files under the /run or /var/run directory.
330
331
332
333 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
334 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
335 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
336 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
337
338
340 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
341 mappings.
342
343 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
344 process type is permissive.
345
346 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
347 icy modules.
348
349 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
350
351
352 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
353 icy settings.
