6 telepathy_gabble_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the
7 telepathy_gabble processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the telepathy_gabble processes via
11 flexible mandatory access control.
12 The telepathy_gabble processes execute with the telepathy_gabble_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 For example:
18 ps -eZ | grep telepathy_gabble_t
20
24 The telepathy_gabble_t SELinux type can be entered via the telepa‐
25 thy_gabble_exec_t file type.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the telepathy_gabble_t domain are the
28 following:
29 /usr/libexec/telepathy-gabble
31
33 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
34 system
35 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
37 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
39 telepathy_gabble policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 telepathy_gabble processes in as secure a method as possible.
41 The following process types are defined for telepathy_gabble:
43 telepathy_gabble_t
45 Note: semanage permissive -a telepathy_gabble_t can be used to make the
47 process type telepathy_gabble_t permissive. SELinux does not deny
48 access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) mes‐
49 sages are still generated.
50
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. telepa‐
54 thy_gabble policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run telepathy_gabble with the
56 tightest access possible.
57 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 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
64 If you want to allow the Telepathy connection managers to connect to
68 any network port, you must turn on the telepathy_connect_all_ports
69 boolean. Disabled by default.
70 setsebool -P telepathy_connect_all_ports 1
72 If you want to allow the Telepathy connection managers to connect to
76 any generic TCP port, you must turn on the telepathy_tcp_con‐
77 nect_generic_network_ports boolean. Disabled by default.
78 setsebool -P telepathy_tcp_connect_generic_network_ports 1
80
84 The SELinux process type telepathy_gabble_t can manage files labeled
85 with the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths
86 for these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC
87 permissions.
88 cache_home_t
90 /root/.cache(/.*)?
92 /home/[^/]+/.nv(/.*)?
93 /home/[^/]+/.cache(/.*)?

131 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
132 type.
133 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
135 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
137 SELinux telepathy_gabble policy is very flexible allowing users to set‐
138 up their telepathy_gabble processes in as secure a method as possible.
139 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
141 SELinux defines the file context types for the telepathy_gabble, if you
143 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
144 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
145 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
146 semanage fcontext -a -t telepathy_gabble_cache_home_t '/srv/mytelepa‐
148 thy_gabble_content(/.*)?'
149 restorecon -R -v /srv/mytelepathy_gabble_content
150 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
152 match multiple files.
153 The following file types are defined for telepathy_gabble:
155 telepathy_gabble_cache_home_t
159 - Set files with the telepathy_gabble_cache_home_t type, if you want to
161 store telepathy gabble cache files in the users home directory.
162 Paths:
165 /home/[^/]+/.cache/wocky(/.*)?, /home/[^/]+/.cache/telepathy/gab‐
166 ble(/.*)?, /home/[^/]+/.cache/telepathy/avatars/gabble(/.*)?
167 telepathy_gabble_exec_t
170 - Set files with the telepathy_gabble_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
172 sition an executable to the telepathy_gabble_t domain.
173 telepathy_gabble_tmp_t
177 - Set files with the telepathy_gabble_tmp_t type, if you want to store
179 telepathy gabble temporary files in the /tmp directories.
180 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
184 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
185 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
186 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
187
190 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
191 mappings.
192 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
194 process type is permissive.
195 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
197 icy modules.
198 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
200 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
203 icy settings.
