6 podsleuth_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the podsleuth
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the podsleuth processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The podsleuth processes execute with the podsleuth_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 podsleuth_t
20
21
22
24 The podsleuth_t SELinux type can be entered via the podsleuth_exec_t
25 file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the podsleuth_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29
30 /usr/bin/podsleuth, /usr/libexec/hal-podsleuth
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 podsleuth policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their pod‐
40 sleuth processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for podsleuth:
43
44 podsleuth_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a podsleuth_t can be used to make the
47 process type podsleuth_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. pod‐
54 sleuth policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
55 you to manipulate the policy and run podsleuth with the tightest access
56 possible.
57
58
59
60 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
61 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
62
63 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
64
65
66
67 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
68 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Disabled by default.
69
70 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
71
72
73
75 The SELinux process type podsleuth_t can manage files labeled with the
76 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
77 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
78
79 podsleuth_cache_t
80
81 /var/cache/podsleuth(/.*)?
82
83 podsleuth_tmp_t
84
85
86 podsleuth_tmpfs_t
87
88
89
91 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
92 type.
93
94 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
95
96 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
97 SELinux podsleuth policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
98 podsleuth processes in as secure a method as possible.
99
100 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
101
102 SELinux defines the file context types for the podsleuth, if you wanted
103 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
104 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
105 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
106
107 semanage fcontext -a -t podsleuth_tmpfs_t '/srv/mypodsleuth_con‐
108 tent(/.*)?'
109 restorecon -R -v /srv/mypodsleuth_content
110
111 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
112 match multiple files.
113
114 The following file types are defined for podsleuth:
115
116
117
118 podsleuth_cache_t
119
120 - Set files with the podsleuth_cache_t type, if you want to store the
121 files under the /var/cache directory.
122
123
124
125 podsleuth_exec_t
126
127 - Set files with the podsleuth_exec_t type, if you want to transition
128 an executable to the podsleuth_t domain.
129
130
131 Paths:
132 /usr/bin/podsleuth, /usr/libexec/hal-podsleuth
133
134
135 podsleuth_tmp_t
136
137 - Set files with the podsleuth_tmp_t type, if you want to store pod‐
138 sleuth temporary files in the /tmp directories.
139
140
141
142 podsleuth_tmpfs_t
143
144 - Set files with the podsleuth_tmpfs_t type, if you want to store pod‐
145 sleuth files on a tmpfs file system.
146
147
148
149 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
150 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
151 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
152 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
153
154
156 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
157 mappings.
158
159 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
160 process type is permissive.
161
162 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
163 icy modules.
164
165 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
166
167
168 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
169 icy settings.
