6 lpd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the lpd processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the lpd processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11
12 The lpd processes execute with the lpd_t SELinux type. You can check if
13 you have these processes running by executing the ps command with the
14 -Z qualifier.
15
16 For example:
17
18 ps -eZ | grep lpd_t
19
20
21
23 The lpd_t SELinux type can be entered via the lpd_exec_t file type.
24
25 The default entrypoint paths for the lpd_t domain are the following:
26
27 /usr/sbin/lpd
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 lpd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their lpd processes
37 in as secure a method as possible.
38
39 The following process types are defined for lpd:
40
41 lpd_t
42
43 Note: semanage permissive -a lpd_t can be used to make the process type
44 lpd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process
45 types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated.
46
47
49 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. lpd
50 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
51 manipulate the policy and run lpd with the tightest access possible.
52
53
54
55 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
56 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
57
58 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
59
60
61
62 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
63 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
64
65 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
66
67
68
70 The SELinux process type lpd_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
71 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
72 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

122 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
123 type.
124
125 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
126
127 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
128 SELinux lpd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their lpd
129 processes in as secure a method as possible.
130
131 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
132
133 SELinux defines the file context types for the lpd, if you wanted to
134 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
135 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
136 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
137
138 semanage fcontext -a -t lpd_var_run_t '/srv/mylpd_content(/.*)?'
139 restorecon -R -v /srv/mylpd_content
140
141 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
142 match multiple files.
143
144 The following file types are defined for lpd:
145
146
147
148 lpd_exec_t
149
150 - Set files with the lpd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an exe‐
151 cutable to the lpd_t domain.
152
153
154
155 lpd_tmp_t
156
157 - Set files with the lpd_tmp_t type, if you want to store lpd temporary
158 files in the /tmp directories.
159
160
161
162 lpd_var_run_t
163
164 - Set files with the lpd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the lpd
165 files under the /run or /var/run directory.
166
167
168 Paths:
169 /var/run/lprng(/.*)?, /var/spool/turboprint(/.*)?
170
171
172 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
173 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
174 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
175 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
176
177
179 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
180 mappings.
181
182 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
183 process type is permissive.
184
185 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
186 icy modules.
187
188 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
189
190
191 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
192 icy settings.
