6 mysqld_safe_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the
7 mysqld_safe processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the mysqld_safe processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The mysqld_safe processes execute with the mysqld_safe_t SELinux type.
14 You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps
15 command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep mysqld_safe_t
20
21
22
24 The mysqld_safe_t SELinux type can be entered via the
25 mysqld_safe_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the mysqld_safe_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29
30 /usr/bin/mysqld_safe, /usr/libexec/mysqld_safe-scl-helper
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 mysqld_safe policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 mysqld_safe processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for mysqld_safe:
43
44 mysqld_safe_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a mysqld_safe_t can be used to make the
47 process type mysqld_safe_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.
54 mysqld_safe policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run mysqld_safe with the tight‐
56 est 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
64
65
66
67 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
68 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
69
70 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
71
72
73
75 The SELinux process type mysqld_safe_t can manage files labeled with
76 the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for
77 these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC per‐
78 missions.

134 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
135 type.
136
137 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
138
139 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
140 SELinux mysqld_safe policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
141 their mysqld_safe processes in as secure a method as possible.
142
143 The following file types are defined for mysqld_safe:
144
145
146
147 mysqld_safe_exec_t
148
149 - Set files with the mysqld_safe_exec_t type, if you want to transition
150 an executable to the mysqld_safe_t domain.
151
152
153 Paths:
154 /usr/bin/mysqld_safe, /usr/libexec/mysqld_safe-scl-helper
155
156
157 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
158 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
159 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
160 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
161
162
164 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
165 mappings.
166
167 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
168 process type is permissive.
169
170 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
171 icy modules.
172
173 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
174
175
176 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
177 icy settings.
