6 mythtv_script_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the
7 mythtv_script processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the mythtv_script processes via flexi‐
11 ble mandatory access control.
12 The mythtv_script processes execute with the mythtv_script_t SELinux
14 type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing
15 the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16 For example:
18 ps -eZ | grep mythtv_script_t
20
24 The mythtv_script_t SELinux type can be entered via the
25 mythtv_script_exec_t, mythtv_script_exec_t file types.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the mythtv_script_t domain are the
28 following:
29 /usr/share/mythtv/mythweather/scripts(/.*)?, /usr/share/mythweb/myth‐
31 web.pl, /usr/share/mythtv/mythweather/scripts(/.*)?, /usr/share/myth‐
32 web/mythweb.pl
33
35 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
36 system
37 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
39 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
41 mythtv_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
42 mythtv_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
43 The following process types are defined for mythtv_script:
45 mythtv_script_t
47 Note: semanage permissive -a mythtv_script_t can be used to make the
49 process type mythtv_script_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access
50 to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
51 still generated.
52
55 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
56 mythtv_script policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans
57 that allow you to manipulate the policy and run mythtv_script with the
58 tightest access possible.
59 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
63 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
64 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
66 If you want to allow httpd cgi support, you must turn on the
70 httpd_enable_cgi boolean. Enabled by default.
71 setsebool -P httpd_enable_cgi 1
73
77 The SELinux process type mythtv_script_t can manage files labeled with
78 the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for
79 these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC per‐
80 missions.
81 mythtv_rw_content_t
83 mythtv_var_lib_t
86 /var/lib/mythtv(/.*)?
88 mythtv_var_log_t
90 /var/log/mythtv(/.*)?
92
95 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
96 type.
97 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
99 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
101 SELinux mythtv_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
102 their mythtv_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
103 The following file types are defined for mythtv_script:
105 mythtv_script_exec_t
109 - Set files with the mythtv_script_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
111 tion an executable to the mythtv_script_t domain.
112 Paths:
115 /usr/share/mythtv/mythweather/scripts(/.*)?, /usr/share/myth‐
116 web/mythweb.pl
117 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
120 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
121 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
122 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
123
126 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
127 mappings.
128 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
130 process type is permissive.
131 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
133 icy modules.
134 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
136 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
139 icy settings.
