6 ipmievd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the ipmievd pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the ipmievd processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12 The ipmievd processes execute with the ipmievd_t SELinux type. You can
14 check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command
15 with the -Z qualifier.
16 For example:
18 ps -eZ | grep ipmievd_t
20
24 The ipmievd_t SELinux type can be entered via the ipmievd_exec_t file
25 type.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the ipmievd_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29 /usr/sbin/ipmievd
31
33 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
34 system
35 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
37 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
39 ipmievd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their ipmievd
40 processes in as secure a method as possible.
41 The following process types are defined for ipmievd:
43 ipmievd_t, ipmievd_helper_t
45 Note: semanage permissive -a ipmievd_t can be used to make the process
47 type ipmievd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
48 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
49 ated.
50
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. ipmievd
54 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
55 manipulate the policy and run ipmievd with the tightest access possi‐
56 ble.
57 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 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
64 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
68 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
69 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
71 If you want to disable kernel module loading, you must turn on the
75 secure_mode_insmod boolean. Enabled by default.
76 setsebool -P secure_mode_insmod 1

82 The SELinux process type ipmievd_t can manage files labeled with the
83 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
84 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

131 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
132 type.
133 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
135 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
137 SELinux ipmievd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
138 ipmievd processes in as secure a method as possible.
139 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
141 SELinux defines the file context types for the ipmievd, if you wanted
143 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
144 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
145 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
146 semanage fcontext -a -t ipmievd_unit_file_t '/srv/myipmievd_con‐
148 tent(/.*)?'
149 restorecon -R -v /srv/myipmievd_content
150 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
152 match multiple files.
153 The following file types are defined for ipmievd:
155 ipmievd_exec_t
159 - Set files with the ipmievd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
161 executable to the ipmievd_t domain.
162 ipmievd_helper_exec_t
166 - Set files with the ipmievd_helper_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
168 tion an executable to the ipmievd_helper_t domain.
169 ipmievd_lock_t
173 - Set files with the ipmievd_lock_t type, if you want to treat the
175 files as ipmievd lock data, stored under the /var/lock directory
176 ipmievd_unit_file_t
180 - Set files with the ipmievd_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat the
182 files as ipmievd unit content.
183 ipmievd_var_run_t
187 - Set files with the ipmievd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
189 ipmievd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
190 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
194 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
195 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
196 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
197
200 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
201 mappings.
202 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
204 process type is permissive.
205 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
207 icy modules.
208 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
210 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
213 icy settings.
