6 klogd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the klogd processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the klogd processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11
12 The klogd processes execute with the klogd_t SELinux type. You can
13 check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command
14 with the -Z qualifier.
15
16 For example:
17
18 ps -eZ | grep klogd_t
19
20
21
23 The klogd_t SELinux type can be entered via the klogd_exec_t file type.
24
25 The default entrypoint paths for the klogd_t domain are the following:
26
27 /sbin/klogd, /sbin/rklogd, /usr/sbin/klogd, /usr/sbin/rklogd
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 klogd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their klogd pro‐
37 cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39 The following process types are defined for klogd:
40
41 klogd_t
42
43 Note: semanage permissive -a klogd_t can be used to make the process
44 type klogd_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. klogd
51 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52 manipulate the policy and run klogd 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
64 The SELinux process type klogd_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
65 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
66 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

109 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
110 type.
111
112 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
113
114 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
115 SELinux klogd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
116 klogd processes in as secure a method as possible.
117
118 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
119
120 SELinux defines the file context types for the klogd, if you wanted to
121 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
122 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
123 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
124
125 semanage fcontext -a -t klogd_var_run_t '/srv/myklogd_content(/.*)?'
126 restorecon -R -v /srv/myklogd_content
127
128 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
129 match multiple files.
130
131 The following file types are defined for klogd:
132
133
134
135 klogd_exec_t
136
137 - Set files with the klogd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
138 executable to the klogd_t domain.
139
140
141 Paths:
142 /sbin/klogd, /sbin/rklogd, /usr/sbin/klogd, /usr/sbin/rklogd
143
144
145 klogd_tmp_t
146
147 - Set files with the klogd_tmp_t type, if you want to store klogd tem‐
148 porary files in the /tmp directories.
149
150
151
152 klogd_var_run_t
153
154 - Set files with the klogd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
155 klogd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
156
157
158
159 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
160 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
161 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
162 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
163
164
166 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
167 mappings.
168
169 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
170 process type is permissive.
171
172 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
173 icy modules.
174
175 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
176
177
178 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
179 icy settings.
