6 initrc_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the initrc pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the initrc processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12 The initrc processes execute with the initrc_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 initrc_t

24 The initrc_t SELinux type can be entered via the ipa_custo‐

242 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
243 system
244 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
246 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
248 initrc policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their initrc
249 processes in as secure a method as possible.
250 The following process types are defined for initrc:
252 initrc_t
254 Note: semanage permissive -a initrc_t can be used to make the process
256 type initrc_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
257 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
258 ated.
259
262 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. initrc
263 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
264 manipulate the policy and run initrc with the tightest access possible.
265 If you want to deny user domains applications to map a memory region as
269 both executable and writable, this is dangerous and the executable
270 should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the deny_execmem bool‐
271 ean. Enabled by default.
272 setsebool -P deny_execmem 1
274 If you want to control the ability to mmap a low area of the address
278 space, as configured by /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr, you must turn on
279 the mmap_low_allowed boolean. Disabled by default.
280 setsebool -P mmap_low_allowed 1
282 If you want to disable kernel module loading, you must turn on the se‐
286 cure_mode_insmod boolean. Enabled by default.
287 setsebool -P secure_mode_insmod 1
289 If you want to allow unconfined executables to make their heap memory
293 executable. Doing this is a really bad idea. Probably indicates a
294 badly coded executable, but could indicate an attack. This executable
295 should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the selinuxuser_ex‐
296 echeap boolean. Disabled by default.
297 setsebool -P selinuxuser_execheap 1
299 If you want to allow unconfined executables to make their stack exe‐
303 cutable. This should never, ever be necessary. Probably indicates a
304 badly coded executable, but could indicate an attack. This executable
305 should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the selinuxuser_exec‐
306 stack boolean. Enabled by default.
307 setsebool -P selinuxuser_execstack 1
309
313 The SELinux process type initrc_t can manage files labeled with the
314 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
315 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
316 file_type
318 all files on the system
320
323 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
324 type.
325 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
327 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
329 SELinux initrc policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
330 initrc processes in as secure a method as possible.
331 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
333 SELinux defines the file context types for the initrc, if you wanted to
335 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
336 the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use re‐
337 storecon to put the labels on disk.
338 semanage fcontext -a -t initrc_var_run_t '/srv/myinitrc_content(/.*)?'
340 restorecon -R -v /srv/myinitrc_content
341 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
343 match multiple files.
344 The following file types are defined for initrc:
346 initrc_devpts_t
350 - Set files with the initrc_devpts_t type, if you want to treat the
352 files as initrc devpts data.
353 initrc_exec_t
357 - Set files with the initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
359 executable to the initrc_t domain.
360 Paths:
363 /etc/init.d/.*, /etc/rc.d/rc.[^/]+, /etc/rc.d/init.d/.*,
364 /opt/nfast/sbin/init.d-ncipher, /usr/libexec/dcc/stop-.*,
365 /usr/libexec/dcc/start-.*, /usr/lib/systemd/fedora[^/]*,
366 /opt/nfast/scripts/init.d/(.*), /etc/rc.d/rc, /etc/X11/prefdm,
367 /usr/sbin/startx, /usr/bin/sepg_ctl, /usr/sbin/start-dirsrv,
368 /usr/sbin/open_init_pty, /usr/sbin/restart-dirsrv, /etc/syscon‐
369 fig/network-scripts/ifup-ipsec, /usr/share/system-config-ser‐
370 vices/system-config-services-mechanism.py
371 initrc_state_t
374 - Set files with the initrc_state_t type, if you want to treat the
376 files as initrc state data.
377 initrc_tmp_t
381 - Set files with the initrc_tmp_t type, if you want to store initrc
383 temporary files in the /tmp directories.
384 initrc_var_log_t
388 - Set files with the initrc_var_log_t type, if you want to treat the
390 data as initrc var log data, usually stored under the /var/log direc‐
391 tory.
392 initrc_var_run_t
396 - Set files with the initrc_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
398 initrc files under the /run or /var/run directory.
399 Paths:
402 /var/run/utmp, /var/run/random-seed, /var/run/runlevel.dir,
403 /var/run/setmixer_flag
404 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
407 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
408 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
409 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
410
413 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
414 mappings.
415 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
417 process type is permissive.
418 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
420 icy modules.
421 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
423 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
426 icy settings.
