6 mysqld_safe_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the
7 mysqld_safe processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the mysqld_safe processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12 The mysqld_safe processes execute with the mysqld_safe_t SELinux type.
14 You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps
15 command with the -Z qualifier.
16 For example:
18 ps -eZ | grep mysqld_safe_t
20
24 The mysqld_safe_t SELinux type can be entered via the
25 mysqld_safe_exec_t file type.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the mysqld_safe_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29 /usr/bin/mysqld_safe, /usr/bin/mariadbd-safe, /usr/libexec/mysqld_safe-
31 scl-helper
32
34 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
35 system
36 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
38 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
40 mysqld_safe policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
41 mysqld_safe processes in as secure a method as possible.
42 The following process types are defined for mysqld_safe:
44 mysqld_safe_t
46 Note: semanage permissive -a mysqld_safe_t can be used to make the
48 process type mysqld_safe_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
49 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
50 still generated.
51
54 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
55 mysqld_safe policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
56 allow you to manipulate the policy and run mysqld_safe with the tight‐
57 est access possible.
58 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 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
65 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
69 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
70 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
72
76 The SELinux process type mysqld_safe_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.

150 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
151 type.
152 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
154 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
156 SELinux mysqld_safe policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
157 their mysqld_safe processes in as secure a method as possible.
158 The following file types are defined for mysqld_safe:
160 mysqld_safe_exec_t
164 - Set files with the mysqld_safe_exec_t type, if you want to transition
166 an executable to the mysqld_safe_t domain.
167 Paths:
170 /usr/bin/mysqld_safe, /usr/bin/mariadbd-safe,
171 /usr/libexec/mysqld_safe-scl-helper
172 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
175 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
176 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
177 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
178
181 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
182 mappings.
183 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
185 process type is permissive.
186 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
188 icy modules.
189 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
191 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
194 icy settings.
