6 certmonger_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the certmonger
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the certmonger processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The certmonger processes execute with the certmonger_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 certmonger_t
20
21
22
24 The certmonger_t SELinux type can be entered via the certmonger_exec_t
25 file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the certmonger_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29
30 /usr/sbin/certmonger
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 certmonger policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their cert‐
40 monger processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for certmonger:
43
44 certmonger_t, certmonger_unconfined_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a certmonger_t can be used to make the
47 process type certmonger_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. cert‐
54 monger policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
55 you to manipulate the policy and run certmonger with the tightest
56 access possible.
57
58
59
60 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
61 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
62
63 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
64
65
66
68 The SELinux process type certmonger_t can manage files labeled with the
69 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
70 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

179 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
180 type.
181
182 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
183
184 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
185 SELinux certmonger policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
186 their certmonger processes in as secure a method as possible.
187
188 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
189
190 SELinux defines the file context types for the certmonger, if you
191 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
192 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
193 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
194
195 semanage fcontext -a -t certmonger_tmp_t '/srv/mycertmonger_con‐
196 tent(/.*)?'
197 restorecon -R -v /srv/mycertmonger_content
198
199 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
200 match multiple files.
201
202 The following file types are defined for certmonger:
203
204
205
206 certmonger_exec_t
207
208 - Set files with the certmonger_exec_t type, if you want to transition
209 an executable to the certmonger_t domain.
210
211
212
213 certmonger_initrc_exec_t
214
215 - Set files with the certmonger_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to
216 transition an executable to the certmonger_initrc_t domain.
217
218
219
220 certmonger_tmp_t
221
222 - Set files with the certmonger_tmp_t type, if you want to store cert‐
223 monger temporary files in the /tmp directories.
224
225
226
227 certmonger_unconfined_exec_t
228
229 - Set files with the certmonger_unconfined_exec_t type, if you want to
230 transition an executable to the certmonger_unconfined_t domain.
231
232
233
234 certmonger_unit_file_t
235
236 - Set files with the certmonger_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat
237 the files as certmonger unit content.
238
239
240 Paths:
241 /etc/systemd/system/dirsrv.target.wants(/.*)?, /usr/lib/sys‐
242 temd/system/certmonger.*
243
244
245 certmonger_var_lib_t
246
247 - Set files with the certmonger_var_lib_t type, if you want to store
248 the certmonger files under the /var/lib directory.
249
250
251
252 certmonger_var_run_t
253
254 - Set files with the certmonger_var_run_t type, if you want to store
255 the certmonger files under the /run or /var/run directory.
256
257
258
259 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
260 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
261 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
262 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
263
264
266 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
267 mappings.
268
269 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
270 process type is permissive.
271
272 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
273 icy modules.
274
275 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
276
277
278 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
279 icy settings.
