6 nmbd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the nmbd processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the nmbd processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11
12 The nmbd processes execute with the nmbd_t SELinux type. You can check
13 if you have these processes running by executing the ps command with
14 the -Z qualifier.
15
16 For example:
17
18 ps -eZ | grep nmbd_t
19
20
21
23 The nmbd_t SELinux type can be entered via the nmbd_exec_t file type.
24
25 The default entrypoint paths for the nmbd_t domain are the following:
26
27 /usr/sbin/nmbd
28
30 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
31 system
32
33 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
34
35 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
36 nmbd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their nmbd pro‐
37 cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39 The following process types are defined for nmbd:
40
41 nmbd_t
42
43 Note: semanage permissive -a nmbd_t can be used to make the process
44 type nmbd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
45 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
46 ated.
47
48
50 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. nmbd
51 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52 manipulate the policy and run nmbd with the tightest access possible.
53
54
55
56 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
57 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
58
59 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
60
61
62
63 If you want to allow samba to share any file/directory read only, you
64 must turn on the samba_export_all_ro boolean. Disabled by default.
65
66 setsebool -P samba_export_all_ro 1
67
68
69
70 If you want to allow samba to share any file/directory read/write, you
71 must turn on the samba_export_all_rw boolean. Disabled by default.
72
73 setsebool -P samba_export_all_rw 1
74
75
76
78 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
79
80 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
81 command:
82
83 semanage port -l
84
85
86 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
87 SELinux nmbd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their nmbd
88 processes in as secure a method as possible.
89
90 The following port types are defined for nmbd:
91
92
93 nmbd_port_t
94
95
96
97 Default Defined Ports:
98 udp 137,138
99
101 The SELinux process type nmbd_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
102 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
103 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

167 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
168 type.
169
170 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
171
172 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
173 SELinux nmbd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their nmbd
174 processes in as secure a method as possible.
175
176 EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
177
178
179 nmbd policy stores data with multiple different file context types
180 under the /var/run/samba/nmbd directory. If you would like to store
181 the data in a different directory you can use the semanage command to
182 create an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this data under
183 the /srv directory you would execute the following command:
184
185 semanage fcontext -a -e /var/run/samba/nmbd /srv/nmbd
186 restorecon -R -v /srv/nmbd
187
188 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
189
190 SELinux defines the file context types for the nmbd, if you wanted to
191 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
192 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
193 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
194
195 semanage fcontext -a -t nmbd_var_run_t '/srv/mynmbd_content(/.*)?'
196 restorecon -R -v /srv/mynmbd_content
197
198 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
199 match multiple files.
200
201 The following file types are defined for nmbd:
202
203
204
205 nmbd_exec_t
206
207 - Set files with the nmbd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
208 executable to the nmbd_t domain.
209
210
211
212 nmbd_var_run_t
213
214 - Set files with the nmbd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the nmbd
215 files under the /run or /var/run directory.
216
217
218 Paths:
219 /var/run/nmbd(/.*)?, /var/run/samba/nmbd(/.*)?,
220 /var/run/samba/nmbd.pid, /var/run/samba/messages.tdb,
221 /var/run/samba/namelist.debug, /var/run/samba/unexpected.tdb
222
223
224 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
225 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
226 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
227 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
228
229
231 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
232 mappings.
233
234 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
235 process type is permissive.
236
237 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
238 icy modules.
239
240 semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
241
242 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
243
244
245 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
246 icy settings.
