6 fsdaemon_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the fsdaemon pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the fsdaemon processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The fsdaemon processes execute with the fsdaemon_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 fsdaemon_t
20
21
22
24 The fsdaemon_t SELinux type can be entered via the fsdaemon_exec_t file
25 type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the fsdaemon_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29
30 /usr/sbin/smartd
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 fsdaemon policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their fsdaemon
40 processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for fsdaemon:
43
44 fsdaemon_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a fsdaemon_t can be used to make the process
47 type fsdaemon_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. fsdae‐
54 mon policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
55 you to manipulate the policy and run fsdaemon with the tightest access
56 possible.
57

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
96 If you want to determine whether smartmon can support devices on 3ware
97 controllers, you must turn on the smartmon_3ware boolean. Disabled by
98 default.
99
100 setsebool -P smartmon_3ware 1
101
102
103
104 If you want to allow confined virtual guests to manage nfs files, you
105 must turn on the virt_use_nfs boolean. Disabled by default.
106
107 setsebool -P virt_use_nfs 1
108
109
110
111 If you want to allow confined virtual guests to manage cifs files, you
112 must turn on the virt_use_samba boolean. Disabled by default.
113
114 setsebool -P virt_use_samba 1
115
116
117
119 The SELinux process type fsdaemon_t can manage files labeled with the
120 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
121 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

184 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
185 type.
186
187 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
188
189 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
190 SELinux fsdaemon policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
191 fsdaemon processes in as secure a method as possible.
192
193 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
194
195 SELinux defines the file context types for the fsdaemon, if you wanted
196 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
197 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
198 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
199
200 semanage fcontext -a -t fsdaemon_tmp_t '/srv/myfsdaemon_content(/.*)?'
201 restorecon -R -v /srv/myfsdaemon_content
202
203 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
204 match multiple files.
205
206 The following file types are defined for fsdaemon:
207
208
209
210 fsdaemon_exec_t
211
212 - Set files with the fsdaemon_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
213 executable to the fsdaemon_t domain.
214
215
216
217 fsdaemon_initrc_exec_t
218
219 - Set files with the fsdaemon_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
220 sition an executable to the fsdaemon_initrc_t domain.
221
222
223
224 fsdaemon_tmp_t
225
226 - Set files with the fsdaemon_tmp_t type, if you want to store fsdaemon
227 temporary files in the /tmp directories.
228
229
230
231 fsdaemon_var_lib_t
232
233 - Set files with the fsdaemon_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the
234 fsdaemon files under the /var/lib directory.
235
236
237
238 fsdaemon_var_run_t
239
240 - Set files with the fsdaemon_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
241 fsdaemon files under the /run or /var/run directory.
242
243
244
245 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
246 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
247 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
248 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
249
250
252 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
253 mappings.
254
255 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
256 process type is permissive.
257
258 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
259 icy modules.
260
261 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
262
263
264 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
265 icy settings.
