6 vdagent_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the vdagent pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the vdagent processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12 The vdagent processes execute with the vdagent_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 vdagent_t
20
24 The vdagent_t SELinux type can be entered via the vdagent_exec_t file
25 type.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the vdagent_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29 /usr/sbin/spice-vdagentd
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 vdagent policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their vdagent
40 processes in as secure a method as possible.
41 The following process types are defined for vdagent:
43 vdagent_t
45 Note: semanage permissive -a vdagent_t can be used to make the process
47 type vdagent_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. vdagent
54 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
55 manipulate the policy and run vdagent 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
68 The SELinux process type vdagent_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 vdagent policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
126 vdagent processes in as secure a method as possible.
127 EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
129 vdagent policy stores data with multiple different file context types
132 under the /var/log/spice-vdagentd directory. If you would like to
133 store the data in a different directory you can use the semanage com‐
134 mand to create an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this
135 data under the /srv directory you would execute the following command:
136 semanage fcontext -a -e /var/log/spice-vdagentd /srv/spice-vdagentd
138 restorecon -R -v /srv/spice-vdagentd
139 vdagent policy stores data with multiple different file context types
141 under the /var/run/spice-vdagentd directory. If you would like to
142 store the data in a different directory you can use the semanage com‐
143 mand to create an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this
144 data under the /srv directory you would execute the following command:
145 semanage fcontext -a -e /var/run/spice-vdagentd /srv/spice-vdagentd
147 restorecon -R -v /srv/spice-vdagentd
148 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
150 SELinux defines the file context types for the vdagent, if you wanted
152 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
153 the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use re‐
154 storecon to put the labels on disk.
155 semanage fcontext -a -t vdagent_log_t '/srv/myvdagent_content(/.*)?'
157 restorecon -R -v /srv/myvdagent_content
158 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
160 match multiple files.
161 The following file types are defined for vdagent:
163 vdagent_exec_t
167 - Set files with the vdagent_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
169 executable to the vdagent_t domain.
170 vdagent_log_t
174 - Set files with the vdagent_log_t type, if you want to treat the data
176 as vdagent log data, usually stored under the /var/log directory.
177 Paths:
180 /var/log/spice-vdagentd(/.*)?, /var/log/spice-vdagentd.log.*
181 vdagent_var_run_t
184 - Set files with the vdagent_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
186 vdagent files under the /run or /var/run directory.
187 Paths:
190 /var/run/spice-vdagentd(/.*)?, /var/run/spice-vdagentd.pid
191 vdagentd_initrc_exec_t
194 - Set files with the vdagentd_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
196 sition an executable to the vdagentd_initrc_t domain.
197 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
201 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
202 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
203 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
204
207 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
208 mappings.
209 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
211 process type is permissive.
212 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
214 icy modules.
215 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
217 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
220 icy settings.
