NAME

6       vpnc_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the vpnc processes
7

DESCRIPTION

9       Security-Enhanced  Linux secures the vpnc processes via flexible manda‐
10       tory access control.
11
12       The vpnc processes execute with the vpnc_t SELinux type. You can  check
13       if  you  have  these processes running by executing the ps command with
14       the -Z qualifier.
15
16       For example:
17
18       ps -eZ | grep vpnc_t

21

ENTRYPOINTS

23       The vpnc_t SELinux type can be entered via the vpnc_exec_t file type.
24
25       The default entrypoint paths for the vpnc_t domain are the following:
26
27       /sbin/vpnc, /usr/sbin/vpnc, /usr/bin/openconnect, /usr/sbin/openconnect
28

PROCESS TYPES

30       SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
31       system
32
33       You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
34
35       Policy  governs  the  access confined processes have to files.  SELinux
36       vpnc policy is very flexible allowing users to setup  their  vpnc  pro‐
37       cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39       The following process types are defined for vpnc:
40
41       vpnc_t
42
43       Note:  semanage  permissive  -a  vpnc_t can be used to make the process
44       type vpnc_t permissive. SELinux does  not  deny  access  to  permissive
45       process  types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
46       ated.
47
48

BOOLEANS

50       SELinux policy is customizable based on least  access  required.   vpnc
51       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52       manipulate the policy and run vpnc with the tightest access possible.
53
54
55
56       If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
57       on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
58
59       setsebool -P fips_mode 1

MANAGED FILES

64       The  SELinux process type vpnc_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
65       lowing file types.  The paths listed are the default  paths  for  these
66       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

FILE CONTEXTS

103       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
104       type.
105
106       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
107
108       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  files.
109       SELinux vpnc policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their vpnc
110       processes in as secure a method as possible.
111
112       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
113
114       SELinux defines the file context types for the vpnc, if you  wanted  to
115       store  files  with  these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
116       the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and  then  use  re‐
117       storecon to put the labels on disk.
118
119       semanage fcontext -a -t vpnc_var_run_t '/srv/myvpnc_content(/.*)?'
120       restorecon -R -v /srv/myvpnc_content
121
122       Note:  SELinux  often  uses  regular expressions to specify labels that
123       match multiple files.
124
125       The following file types are defined for vpnc:
126
127
128
129       vpnc_exec_t
130
131       - Set files with the vpnc_exec_t type, if you want to transition an ex‐
132       ecutable to the vpnc_t domain.
133
134
135       Paths:
136            /sbin/vpnc,  /usr/sbin/vpnc, /usr/bin/openconnect, /usr/sbin/open‐
137            connect
138
139
140       vpnc_tmp_t
141
142       - Set files with the vpnc_tmp_t type, if you want to store vpnc  tempo‐
143       rary files in the /tmp directories.
144
145
146
147       vpnc_var_run_t
148
149       - Set files with the vpnc_var_run_t type, if you want to store the vpnc
150       files under the /run or /var/run directory.
151
152
153
154       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
155       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
156       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
157       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.

COMMANDS

161       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
162       mappings.
163
164       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
165       process type is permissive.
166
167       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
168       icy modules.
169
170       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
171
172
173       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
174       icy settings.
