6 pads_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the pads processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the pads processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11 The pads processes execute with the pads_t SELinux type. You can check
13 if you have these processes running by executing the ps command with
14 the -Z qualifier.
15 For example:
17 ps -eZ | grep pads_t
19
23 The pads_t SELinux type can be entered via the pads_exec_t file type.
24 The default entrypoint paths for the pads_t domain are the following:
26 /usr/bin/pads
28
30 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
31 system
32 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
34 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
36 pads policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their pads pro‐
37 cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38 The following process types are defined for pads:
40 pads_t
42 Note: semanage permissive -a pads_t can be used to make the process
44 type pads_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
45 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
46 ated.
47
50 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. pads
51 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52 manipulate the policy and run pads with the tightest access possible.
53 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 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
60 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
64 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Disabled by default.
65 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
67
71 The SELinux process type pads_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
72 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
73 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

128 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
129 type.
130 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
132 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
134 SELinux pads policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their pads
135 processes in as secure a method as possible.
136 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
138 SELinux defines the file context types for the pads, if you wanted to
140 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
141 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
142 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
143 semanage fcontext -a -t pads_var_run_t '/srv/mypads_content(/.*)?'
145 restorecon -R -v /srv/mypads_content
146 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
148 match multiple files.
149 The following file types are defined for pads:
151 pads_config_t
155 - Set files with the pads_config_t type, if you want to treat the files
157 as pads configuration data, usually stored under the /etc directory.
158 Paths:
161 /etc/pads.conf, /etc/pads-assets.csv, /etc/pads-ether-codes,
162 /etc/pads-signature-list
163 pads_exec_t
166 - Set files with the pads_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
168 executable to the pads_t domain.
169 pads_initrc_exec_t
173 - Set files with the pads_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transition
175 an executable to the pads_initrc_t domain.
176 pads_var_run_t
180 - Set files with the pads_var_run_t type, if you want to store the pads
182 files under the /run or /var/run directory.
183 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
187 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
188 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
189 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
190
193 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
194 mappings.
195 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
197 process type is permissive.
198 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
200 icy modules.
201 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
203 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
206 icy settings.
