6 system_dbusd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the sys‐
7 tem_dbusd processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the system_dbusd processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The system_dbusd processes execute with the system_dbusd_t SELinux
14 type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing
15 the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep system_dbusd_t
20
21
22
24 The system_dbusd_t SELinux type can be entered via the dbusd_exec_t
25 file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the system_dbusd_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29
30 /usr/bin/dbus-daemon(-1)?, /bin/dbus-daemon, /usr/bin/dbus-broker,
31 /usr/bin/dbus-broker-launch, /lib/dbus-1/dbus-daemon-launch-helper,
32 /usr/lib/dbus-1/dbus-daemon-launch-helper, /usr/libexec/dbus-1/dbus-
33 daemon-launch-helper
34
36 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
37 system
38
39 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
40
41 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
42 system_dbusd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their sys‐
43 tem_dbusd processes in as secure a method as possible.
44
45 The following process types are defined for system_dbusd:
46
47 system_dbusd_t
48
49 Note: semanage permissive -a system_dbusd_t can be used to make the
50 process type system_dbusd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
51 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
52 still generated.
53
54
56 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. sys‐
57 tem_dbusd policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
58 allow you to manipulate the policy and run system_dbusd with the tight‐
59 est access possible.
60
61
62
63 If you want to deny all system processes and Linux users to use blue‐
64 tooth wireless technology, you must turn on the deny_bluetooth boolean.
65 Enabled by default.
66
67 setsebool -P deny_bluetooth 1
68
69
70
71 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
72 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
73
74 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
75
76
77
78 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
79 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
80
81 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
82
83
84
86 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
87 type.
88
89 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
90
91 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
92 SELinux system_dbusd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
93 their system_dbusd processes in as secure a method as possible.
94
95 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
96
97 SELinux defines the file context types for the system_dbusd, if you
98 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
99 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
100 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
101
102 semanage fcontext -a -t system_dbusd_var_run_t '/srv/mysys‐
103 tem_dbusd_content(/.*)?'
104 restorecon -R -v /srv/mysystem_dbusd_content
105
106 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
107 match multiple files.
108
109 The following file types are defined for system_dbusd:
110
111
112
113 system_dbusd_tmp_t
114
115 - Set files with the system_dbusd_tmp_t type, if you want to store sys‐
116 tem dbusd temporary files in the /tmp directories.
117
118
119
120 system_dbusd_tmpfs_t
121
122 - Set files with the system_dbusd_tmpfs_t type, if you want to store
123 system dbusd files on a tmpfs file system.
124
125
126
127 system_dbusd_var_lib_t
128
129 - Set files with the system_dbusd_var_lib_t type, if you want to store
130 the system dbusd files under the /var/lib directory.
131
132
133 Paths:
134 /var/lib/dbus(/.*)?, /var/cache/ibus(/.*)?
135
136
137 system_dbusd_var_run_t
138
139 - Set files with the system_dbusd_var_run_t type, if you want to store
140 the system dbusd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
141
142
143 Paths:
144 /var/run/dbus(/.*)?, /var/named/chroot/var/run/dbus(/.*)?
145
146
147 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
148 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
149 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
150 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
151
152
154 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
155 mappings.
156
157 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
158 process type is permissive.
159
160 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
161 icy modules.
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.
