6 mythtv_script_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the
7 mythtv_script processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the mythtv_script processes via flexi‐
11 ble mandatory access control.
12
13 The mythtv_script processes execute with the mythtv_script_t SELinux
14 type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing
15 the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep mythtv_script_t
20
21
22
24 The mythtv_script_t SELinux type can be entered via the
25 mythtv_script_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the mythtv_script_t domain are the
28 following:
29
30 /usr/share/mythtv/mythweather/scripts(/.*)?, /usr/share/mythweb/myth‐
31 web.pl
32
34 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
35 system
36
37 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
38
39 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
40 mythtv_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
41 mythtv_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
42
43 The following process types are defined for mythtv_script:
44
45 mythtv_script_t
46
47 Note: semanage permissive -a mythtv_script_t can be used to make the
48 process type mythtv_script_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access
49 to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
50 still generated.
51
52
54 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
55 mythtv_script policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans
56 that allow you to manipulate the policy and run mythtv_script with the
57 tightest access possible.
58
59
60
61 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
62 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
63
64 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
65
66
67
68 If you want to allow httpd cgi support, you must turn on the httpd_en‐
69 able_cgi boolean. Enabled by default.
70
71 setsebool -P httpd_enable_cgi 1
72
73
74
76 The SELinux process type mythtv_script_t can manage files labeled with
77 the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for
78 these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC per‐
79 missions.
80
81 mythtv_rw_content_t
82
83
84 mythtv_var_lib_t
85
86 /var/lib/mythtv(/.*)?
87
88 mythtv_var_log_t
89
90 /var/log/mythtv(/.*)?
91
92
94 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
95 type.
96
97 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
98
99 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
100 SELinux mythtv_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
101 their mythtv_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
102
103 The following file types are defined for mythtv_script:
104
105
106
107 mythtv_script_exec_t
108
109 - Set files with the mythtv_script_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
110 tion an executable to the mythtv_script_t domain.
111
112
113 Paths:
114 /usr/share/mythtv/mythweather/scripts(/.*)?, /usr/share/myth‐
115 web/mythweb.pl
116
117
118 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
119 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
120 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
121 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
122
123
125 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
126 mappings.
127
128 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
129 process type is permissive.
130
131 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
132 icy modules.
133
134 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
135
136
137 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
138 icy settings.
