6 swat_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the swat processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the swat processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11
12 The swat processes execute with the swat_t SELinux type. You can check
13 if you have these processes running by executing the ps command with
14 the -Z qualifier.
15
16 For example:
17
18 ps -eZ | grep swat_t
19
20
21
23 The swat_t SELinux type can be entered via the swat_exec_t file type.
24
25 The default entrypoint paths for the swat_t domain are the following:
26
27 /usr/sbin/swat
28
30 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
31 system
32
33 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
34
35 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
36 swat policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their swat pro‐
37 cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39 The following process types are defined for swat:
40
41 swat_t
42
43 Note: semanage permissive -a swat_t can be used to make the process
44 type swat_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
45 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
46 ated.
47
48
50 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. swat
51 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52 manipulate the policy and run swat with the tightest access possible.
53
54
55
56 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
57 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
58
59 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
60
61
62
64 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
65
66 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
67 command:
68
69 semanage port -l
70
71
72 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
73 SELinux swat policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their swat
74 processes in as secure a method as possible.
75
76 The following port types are defined for swat:
77
78
79 swat_port_t
80
81
82
83 Default Defined Ports:
84 tcp 901
85
87 The SELinux process type swat_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
88 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
89 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

131 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
132 type.
133
134 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
135
136 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
137 SELinux swat policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their swat
138 processes in as secure a method as possible.
139
140 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
141
142 SELinux defines the file context types for the swat, if you wanted to
143 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
144 the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use re‐
145 storecon to put the labels on disk.
146
147 semanage fcontext -a -t swat_var_run_t '/srv/myswat_content(/.*)?'
148 restorecon -R -v /srv/myswat_content
149
150 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
151 match multiple files.
152
153 The following file types are defined for swat:
154
155
156
157 swat_exec_t
158
159 - Set files with the swat_exec_t type, if you want to transition an ex‐
160 ecutable to the swat_t domain.
161
162
163
164 swat_tmp_t
165
166 - Set files with the swat_tmp_t type, if you want to store swat tempo‐
167 rary files in the /tmp directories.
168
169
170
171 swat_var_run_t
172
173 - Set files with the swat_var_run_t type, if you want to store the swat
174 files under the /run or /var/run directory.
175
176
177
178 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
179 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
180 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
181 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
182
183
185 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
186 mappings.
187
188 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
189 process type is permissive.
190
191 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
192 icy modules.
193
194 semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
195
196 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
197
198
199 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
200 icy settings.
