6 pads_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the pads processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the pads processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11 The pads processes execute with the pads_t SELinux type. You can check
13 if you have these processes running by executing the ps command with
14 the -Z qualifier.
15 For example:
17 ps -eZ | grep pads_t
19
23 The pads_t SELinux type can be entered via the pads_exec_t file type.
24 The default entrypoint paths for the pads_t domain are the following:
26 /usr/bin/pads
28
30 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
31 system
32 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
34 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
36 pads policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their pads pro‐
37 cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38 The following process types are defined for pads:
40 pads_t
42 Note: semanage permissive -a pads_t can be used to make the process
44 type pads_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
45 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
46 ated.
47
50 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. pads
51 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52 manipulate the policy and run pads with the tightest access possible.
53 If you want to deny all system processes and Linux users to use blue‐
57 tooth wireless technology, you must turn on the deny_bluetooth boolean.
58 Enabled by default.
59 setsebool -P deny_bluetooth 1
61 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
65 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
66 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
68 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
72 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Enabled by default.
73 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
75
79 The SELinux process type pads_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
80 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
81 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

137 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
138 type.
139 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
141 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
143 SELinux pads policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their pads
144 processes in as secure a method as possible.
145 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
147 SELinux defines the file context types for the pads, if you wanted to
149 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
150 the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use re‐
151 storecon to put the labels on disk.
152 semanage fcontext -a -t pads_var_run_t '/srv/mypads_content(/.*)?'
154 restorecon -R -v /srv/mypads_content
155 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
157 match multiple files.
158 The following file types are defined for pads:
160 pads_config_t
164 - Set files with the pads_config_t type, if you want to treat the files
166 as pads configuration data, usually stored under the /etc directory.
167 Paths:
170 /etc/pads.conf, /etc/pads-assets.csv, /etc/pads-ether-codes,
171 /etc/pads-signature-list
172 pads_exec_t
175 - Set files with the pads_exec_t type, if you want to transition an ex‐
177 ecutable to the pads_t domain.
178 pads_initrc_exec_t
182 - Set files with the pads_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transition
184 an executable to the pads_initrc_t domain.
185 pads_var_run_t
189 - Set files with the pads_var_run_t type, if you want to store the pads
191 files under the /run or /var/run directory.
192 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
196 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
197 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
198 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
199
202 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
203 mappings.
204 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
206 process type is permissive.
207 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
209 icy modules.
210 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
212 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
215 icy settings.
