NAME

6       cups_pdf_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the cups_pdf pro‐
7       cesses
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the  cups_pdf  processes  via  flexible
11       mandatory access control.
12
13       The  cups_pdf  processes  execute with the cups_pdf_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 cups_pdf_t
20
21
22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The cups_pdf_t SELinux type can be entered via the cups_pdf_exec_t file
25       type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the cups_pdf_t domain are the  follow‐
28       ing:
29
30       /usr/lib/cups/backend/cups-pdf
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       cups_pdf policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their cups_pdf
40       processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42       The following process types are defined for cups_pdf:
43
44       cups_pdf_t
45
46       Note: semanage permissive -a cups_pdf_t can be used to make the process
47       type  cups_pdf_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
48       process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still  gener‐
49       ated.

51

BOOLEANS

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

MANAGED FILES

68       The  SELinux  process type cups_pdf_t can manage files labeled with the
69       following file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for these
70       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
71
72       anon_inodefs_t
73
74
75       cifs_t
76
77
78       ecryptfs_t
79
80            /home/[^/]+/.Private(/.*)?
81            /home/[^/]+/.ecryptfs(/.*)?
82
83       fusefs_t
84
85            /var/run/user/[^/]*/gvfs
86
87       nfs_t
88
89
90       print_spool_t
91
92            /var/spool/lpd(/.*)?
93            /var/spool/cups(/.*)?
94            /var/spool/cups-pdf(/.*)?

FILE CONTEXTS

102       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
103       type.
104
105       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
106
107       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  files.
108       SELinux  cups_pdf policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
109       cups_pdf processes in as secure a method as possible.
110
111       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
112
113       SELinux defines the file context types for the cups_pdf, if you  wanted
114       to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
115       the semanage command  to  sepecify  alternate  labeling  and  then  use
116       restorecon to put the labels on disk.
117
118       semanage fcontext -a -t cups_pdf_tmp_t '/srv/mycups_pdf_content(/.*)?'
119       restorecon -R -v /srv/mycups_pdf_content
120
121       Note:  SELinux  often  uses  regular expressions to specify labels that
122       match multiple files.
123
124       The following file types are defined for cups_pdf:
125
126
127
128       cups_pdf_exec_t
129
130       - Set files with the cups_pdf_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
131       executable to the cups_pdf_t domain.
132
133
134
135       cups_pdf_tmp_t
136
137       - Set files with the cups_pdf_tmp_t type, if you want to store cups pdf
138       temporary files in the /tmp directories.
139
140
141
142       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
143       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
144       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
145       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.

147

COMMANDS

149       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
150       mappings.
151
152       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
153       process type is permissive.
154
155       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
156       icy modules.
157
158       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
159
160
161       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
162       icy settings.
