NAME

6       updfstab_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the updfstab pro‐
7       cesses
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the  updfstab  processes  via  flexible
11       mandatory access control.
12
13       The  updfstab  processes  execute with the updfstab_t SELinux type. You
14       can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps  com‐
15       mand with the -Z qualifier.
16
17       For example:
18
19       ps -eZ | grep updfstab_t
20
21
22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The updfstab_t SELinux type can be entered via the updfstab_exec_t file
25       type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the updfstab_t domain are the  follow‐
28       ing:
29
30       /usr/sbin/updfstab, /usr/sbin/fstab-sync
31

PROCESS TYPES

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       updfstab policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their updfstab
40       processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42       The following process types are defined for updfstab:
43
44       updfstab_t
45
46       Note: semanage permissive -a updfstab_t can be used to make the process
47       type  updfstab_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
48       process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still  gener‐
49       ated.

51

BOOLEANS

53       SELinux  policy  is customizable based on least access required.  updf‐
54       stab policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans  that  allow
55       you  to manipulate the policy and run updfstab with the tightest access
56       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
67       If  you  want  to  allow  system  to run with NIS, you must turn on the
68       nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
69
70       setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
71

73

MANAGED FILES

75       The SELinux process type updfstab_t can manage files labeled  with  the
76       following file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for these
77       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
78
79       mnt_t
80
81            /mnt(/[^/]*)?
82            /mnt(/[^/]*)?
83            /rhev(/[^/]*)?
84            /rhev/[^/]*/.*
85            /media(/[^/]*)?
86            /media(/[^/]*)?
87            /media/.hal-.*
88            /var/run/media(/[^/]*)?
89            /afs
90            /net
91            /misc
92            /rhev

FILE CONTEXTS

100       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
101       type.
102
103       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
104
105       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these files.
106       SELinux updfstab policy is very flexible allowing users to setup  their
107       updfstab processes in as secure a method as possible.
108
109       The following file types are defined for updfstab:
110
111
112
113       updfstab_exec_t
114
115       - Set files with the updfstab_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
116       executable to the updfstab_t domain.
117
118
119       Paths:
120            /usr/sbin/updfstab, /usr/sbin/fstab-sync
121
122
123       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
124       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
125       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
126       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.

128

COMMANDS

130       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
131       mappings.
132
133       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
134       process type is permissive.
135
136       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
137       icy modules.
138
139       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
140
141
142       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
143       icy settings.
