6 systemd_initctl_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the sys‐
7 temd_initctl processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the systemd_initctl processes via flex‐
11 ible mandatory access control.
12
13 The systemd_initctl processes execute with the systemd_initctl_t
14 SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by exe‐
15 cuting the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep systemd_initctl_t
20
21
22
24 The systemd_initctl_t SELinux type can be entered via the sys‐
25 temd_initctl_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the systemd_initctl_t domain are the
28 following:
29
30 /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-initctl
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 systemd_initctl policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 systemd_initctl processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for systemd_initctl:
43
44 systemd_initctl_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a systemd_initctl_t can be used to make the
47 process type systemd_initctl_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access
48 to 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. sys‐
54 temd_initctl policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run systemd_initctl with the
56 tightest 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 systemd_initctl_t can manage files labeled
98 with the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths
99 for these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC
100 permissions.

139 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
140 type.
141
142 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
143
144 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
145 SELinux systemd_initctl policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
146 their systemd_initctl processes in as secure a method as possible.
147
148 The following file types are defined for systemd_initctl:
149
150
151
152 systemd_initctl_exec_t
153
154 - Set files with the systemd_initctl_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
155 sition an executable to the systemd_initctl_t domain.
156
157
158
159 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
160 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
161 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
162 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
163
164
166 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
167 mappings.
168
169 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
170 process type is permissive.
171
172 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
173 icy modules.
174
175 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
176
177
178 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
179 icy settings.
