NAME

6       sensord_selinux  -  Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the sensord pro‐
7       cesses
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux secures  the  sensord  processes  via  flexible
11       mandatory access control.
12
13       The  sensord processes execute with the sensord_t SELinux type. You can
14       check if you have these processes running by executing the  ps  command
15       with the -Z qualifier.
16
17       For example:
18
19       ps -eZ | grep sensord_t
20
21
22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The  sensord_t  SELinux type can be entered via the sensord_exec_t file
25       type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the sensord_t domain are  the  follow‐
28       ing:
29
30       /usr/sbin/sensord, /usr/libexec/lm_sensors/sensord-service-wrapper
31

PROCESS TYPES

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       sensord  policy  is very flexible allowing users to setup their sensord
40       processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42       The following process types are defined for sensord:
43
44       sensord_t
45
46       Note: semanage permissive -a sensord_t can be used to make the  process
47       type  sensord_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

BOOLEANS

53       SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.  sensord
54       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
55       manipulate  the  policy and run sensord with the tightest access possi‐
56       ble.
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

MANAGED FILES

97       The SELinux process type sensord_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.

FILE CONTEXTS

146       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
147       type.
148
149       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
150
151       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these files.
152       SELinux sensord policy is very flexible allowing users to  setup  their
153       sensord processes in as secure a method as possible.
154
155       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
156
157       SELinux  defines  the file context types for the sensord, if you wanted
158       to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
159       the  semanage  command  to  sepecify  alternate  labeling  and then use
160       restorecon to put the labels on disk.
161
162       semanage fcontext -a -t sensord_log_t '/srv/mysensord_content(/.*)?'
163       restorecon -R -v /srv/mysensord_content
164
165       Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions  to  specify  labels  that
166       match multiple files.
167
168       The following file types are defined for sensord:
169
170
171
172       sensord_exec_t
173
174       -  Set files with the sensord_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
175       executable to the sensord_t domain.
176
177
178       Paths:
179            /usr/sbin/sensord, /usr/libexec/lm_sensors/sensord-service-wrapper
180
181
182       sensord_initrc_exec_t
183
184       - Set files with the sensord_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
185       tion an executable to the sensord_initrc_t domain.
186
187
188
189       sensord_log_t
190
191       -  Set files with the sensord_log_t type, if you want to treat the data
192       as sensord log data, usually stored under the /var/log directory.
193
194
195
196       sensord_unit_file_t
197
198       - Set files with the sensord_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat the
199       files as sensord unit content.
200
201
202
203       sensord_var_run_t
204
205       -  Set  files with the sensord_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
206       sensord files under the /run or /var/run directory.
207
208
209
210       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
211       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
212       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
213       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
214
215

COMMANDS

217       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
218       mappings.
219
220       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
221       process type is permissive.
222
223       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
224       icy modules.
225
226       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
227
228
229       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
230       icy settings.
