6 eventlogd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the eventlogd
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the eventlogd processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12 The eventlogd processes execute with the eventlogd_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 For example:
18 ps -eZ | grep eventlogd_t
20
24 The eventlogd_t SELinux type can be entered via the eventlogd_exec_t
25 file type.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the eventlogd_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29 /usr/sbin/eventlogd, /opt/likewise/sbin/eventlogd
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 eventlogd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their event‐
40 logd processes in as secure a method as possible.
41 The following process types are defined for eventlogd:
43 eventlogd_t
45 Note: semanage permissive -a eventlogd_t can be used to make the
47 process type eventlogd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
48 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
49 still generated.
50
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. event‐
54 logd policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
55 you to manipulate the policy and run eventlogd with the tightest access
56 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
68 The SELinux process type eventlogd_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.

119 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
120 type.
121 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
123 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
125 SELinux eventlogd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
126 eventlogd processes in as secure a method as possible.
127 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
129 SELinux defines the file context types for the eventlogd, if you wanted
131 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
132 the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use re‐
133 storecon to put the labels on disk.
134 semanage fcontext -a -t eventlogd_var_lib_t '/srv/myeventlogd_con‐
136 tent(/.*)?'
137 restorecon -R -v /srv/myeventlogd_content
138 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
140 match multiple files.
141 The following file types are defined for eventlogd:
143 eventlogd_exec_t
147 - Set files with the eventlogd_exec_t type, if you want to transition
149 an executable to the eventlogd_t domain.
150 Paths:
153 /usr/sbin/eventlogd, /opt/likewise/sbin/eventlogd
154 eventlogd_var_lib_t
157 - Set files with the eventlogd_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the
159 eventlogd files under the /var/lib directory.
160 Paths:
163 /var/lib/likewise/db/lwi_events.db, /var/lib/likewise-
164 open/db/lwi_events.db
165 eventlogd_var_run_t
168 - Set files with the eventlogd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
170 eventlogd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
171 eventlogd_var_socket_t
175 - Set files with the eventlogd_var_socket_t type, if you want to treat
177 the files as eventlogd var socket data.
178 Paths:
181 /var/lib/likewise/.eventlog, /var/lib/likewise/rpc/socket,
182 /var/lib/likewise-open/.eventlog, /var/lib/likewise-
183 open/rpc/socket
184 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
187 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
188 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
189 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
190
193 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
194 mappings.
195 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
197 process type is permissive.
198 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
200 icy modules.
201 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
203 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
206 icy settings.
