6 comsat_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the comsat pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the comsat processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The comsat processes execute with the comsat_t SELinux type. You can
14 check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command
15 with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep comsat_t
20
21
22
24 The comsat_t SELinux type can be entered via the comsat_exec_t file
25 type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the comsat_t domain are the following:
28
29 /usr/sbin/in.comsat
30
32 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
33 system
34
35 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
36
37 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
38 comsat policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their comsat
39 processes in as secure a method as possible.
40
41 The following process types are defined for comsat:
42
43 comsat_t
44
45 Note: semanage permissive -a comsat_t can be used to make the process
46 type comsat_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
47 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
48 ated.
49
50
52 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. comsat
53 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
54 manipulate the policy and run comsat with the tightest access possible.
55
56
57
58 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
59 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
60
61 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
62
63
64
66 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
67
68 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
69 command:
70
71 semanage port -l
72
73
74 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
75 SELinux comsat policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
76 comsat processes in as secure a method as possible.
77
78 The following port types are defined for comsat:
79
80
81 comsat_port_t
82
83
84
85 Default Defined Ports:
86 udp 512
87
89 The SELinux process type comsat_t can manage files labeled with the
90 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
91 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
92
93 comsat_var_run_t
94
95
96
98 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
99 type.
100
101 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
102
103 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
104 SELinux comsat policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
105 comsat processes in as secure a method as possible.
106
107 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
108
109 SELinux defines the file context types for the comsat, if you wanted to
110 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
111 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
112 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
113
114 semanage fcontext -a -t comsat_var_run_t '/srv/mycomsat_content(/.*)?'
115 restorecon -R -v /srv/mycomsat_content
116
117 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
118 match multiple files.
119
120 The following file types are defined for comsat:
121
122
123
124 comsat_exec_t
125
126 - Set files with the comsat_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
127 executable to the comsat_t domain.
128
129
130
131 comsat_tmp_t
132
133 - Set files with the comsat_tmp_t type, if you want to store comsat
134 temporary files in the /tmp directories.
135
136
137
138 comsat_var_run_t
139
140 - Set files with the comsat_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
141 comsat files under the /run or /var/run directory.
142
143
144
145 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
146 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
147 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
148 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
149
150
152 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
153 mappings.
154
155 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
156 process type is permissive.
157
158 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
159 icy modules.
160
161 semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
162
163 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
164
165
166 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
167 icy settings.
