6 telepathy_msn_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the telepa‐
7 thy_msn processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the telepathy_msn processes via flexi‐
11 ble mandatory access control.
12 The telepathy_msn processes execute with the telepathy_msn_t SELinux
14 type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing
15 the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16 For example:
18 ps -eZ | grep telepathy_msn_t
20
24 The telepathy_msn_t SELinux type can be entered via the telepa‐
25 thy_msn_exec_t file type.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the telepathy_msn_t domain are the
28 following:
29 /usr/libexec/telepathy-haze, /usr/libexec/telepathy-butterfly
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 telepathy_msn policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 telepathy_msn processes in as secure a method as possible.
41 The following process types are defined for telepathy_msn:
43 telepathy_msn_t
45 Note: semanage permissive -a telepathy_msn_t can be used to make the
47 process type telepathy_msn_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access
48 to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
49 still generated.
50
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. telepa‐
54 thy_msn policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that al‐
55 low you to manipulate the policy and run telepathy_msn with the tight‐
56 est access possible.
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 allow the Telepathy connection managers to connect to
75 any network port, you must turn on the telepathy_connect_all_ports
76 boolean. Disabled by default.
77 setsebool -P telepathy_connect_all_ports 1
79 If you want to allow the Telepathy connection managers to connect to
83 any generic TCP port, you must turn on the telepathy_tcp_con‐
84 nect_generic_network_ports boolean. Enabled by default.
85 setsebool -P telepathy_tcp_connect_generic_network_ports 1
87
91 The SELinux process type telepathy_msn_t can manage files labeled with
92 the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for
93 these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC per‐
94 missions.
95 cache_home_t
97 /root/.cache(/.*)?
99 /home/[^/]+/.nv(/.*)?
100 /home/[^/]+/.cache(/.*)?
101 krb5_host_rcache_t
103 /var/tmp/krb5_0.rcache2
105 /var/cache/krb5rcache(/.*)?
106 /var/tmp/nfs_0
107 /var/tmp/DNS_25
108 /var/tmp/host_0
109 /var/tmp/imap_0
110 /var/tmp/HTTP_23
111 /var/tmp/HTTP_48
112 /var/tmp/ldap_55
113 /var/tmp/ldap_487
114 /var/tmp/ldapmap1_0
115 telepathy_msn_tmp_t
117
121 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
122 type.
123 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
125 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
127 SELinux telepathy_msn policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
128 their telepathy_msn processes in as secure a method as possible.
129 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
131 SELinux defines the file context types for the telepathy_msn, if you
133 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
134 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
135 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
136 semanage fcontext -a -t telepathy_msn_tmp_t '/srv/mytelepathy_msn_con‐
138 tent(/.*)?'
139 restorecon -R -v /srv/mytelepathy_msn_content
140 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
142 match multiple files.
143 The following file types are defined for telepathy_msn:
145 telepathy_msn_exec_t
149 - Set files with the telepathy_msn_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
151 tion an executable to the telepathy_msn_t domain.
152 Paths:
155 /usr/libexec/telepathy-haze, /usr/libexec/telepathy-butterfly
156 telepathy_msn_tmp_t
159 - Set files with the telepathy_msn_tmp_t type, if you want to store
161 telepathy msn temporary files in the /tmp directories.
162 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
166 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
167 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
168 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
169
172 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
173 mappings.
174 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
176 process type is permissive.
177 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
179 icy modules.
180 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
182 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
185 icy settings.
