6 qmail_queue_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the
7 qmail_queue processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the qmail_queue processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12 The qmail_queue processes execute with the qmail_queue_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 qmail_queue_t
20
24 The qmail_queue_t SELinux type can be entered via the
25 qmail_queue_exec_t file type.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the qmail_queue_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue
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 qmail_queue policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 qmail_queue processes in as secure a method as possible.
41 The following process types are defined for qmail_queue:
43 qmail_queue_t
45 Note: semanage permissive -a qmail_queue_t can be used to make the
47 process type qmail_queue_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
48 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
49 still generated.
50
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
54 qmail_queue policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run qmail_queue with the tight‐
56 est access possible.
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 qmail_queue_t can manage files labeled with
69 the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for
70 these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC per‐
71 missions.
72 arpwatch_tmp_t
74 qmail_spool_t
77 /var/qmail/queue(/.*)?
79
82 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
83 type.
84 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
86 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
88 SELinux qmail_queue policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
89 their qmail_queue processes in as secure a method as possible.
90 The following file types are defined for qmail_queue:
92 qmail_queue_exec_t
96 - Set files with the qmail_queue_exec_t type, if you want to transition
98 an executable to the qmail_queue_t domain.
99 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
103 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
104 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
105 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
106
109 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
110 mappings.
111 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
113 process type is permissive.
114 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
116 icy modules.
117 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
119 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
122 icy settings.
