6 lsmd_plugin_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the lsmd_plug‐
7 in processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the lsmd_plugin processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The lsmd_plugin processes execute with the lsmd_plugin_t SELinux type.
14 You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps
15 command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep lsmd_plugin_t
20
21
22
24 The lsmd_plugin_t SELinux type can be entered via the lsmd_plug‐
25 in_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the lsmd_plugin_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29
30 /usr/bin/.*_lsmplugin
31
33 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
34 system
35
36 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
37
38 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
39 lsmd_plugin policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 lsmd_plugin processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for lsmd_plugin:
43
44 lsmd_plugin_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a lsmd_plugin_t can be used to make the
47 process type lsmd_plugin_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
48 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
49 still generated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
54 lsmd_plugin policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run lsmd_plugin with the tight‐
56 est access possible.
57
58
59
60 If you want to determine whether lsmd_plugin can connect to all TCP
61 ports, you must turn on the lsmd_plugin_connect_any boolean. Disabled
62 by default.
63
64 setsebool -P lsmd_plugin_connect_any 1
65
66
67
68 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
69 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
70
71 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
72
73
74
76 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
77 type.
78
79 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
80
81 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
82 SELinux lsmd_plugin policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
83 their lsmd_plugin processes in as secure a method as possible.
84
85 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
86
87 SELinux defines the file context types for the lsmd_plugin, if you
88 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
89 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
90 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
91
92 semanage fcontext -a -t lsmd_plugin_tmp_t '/srv/mylsmd_plugin_con‐
93 tent(/.*)?'
94 restorecon -R -v /srv/mylsmd_plugin_content
95
96 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
97 match multiple files.
98
99 The following file types are defined for lsmd_plugin:
100
101
102
103 lsmd_plugin_exec_t
104
105 - Set files with the lsmd_plugin_exec_t type, if you want to transition
106 an executable to the lsmd_plugin_t domain.
107
108
109
110 lsmd_plugin_tmp_t
111
112 - Set files with the lsmd_plugin_tmp_t type, if you want to store lsmd
113 plugin temporary files in the /tmp directories.
114
115
116
117 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
118 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
119 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
120 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
121
122
124 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
125 mappings.
126
127 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
128 process type is permissive.
129
130 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
131 icy modules.
132
133 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
134
135
136 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
137 icy settings.
