6 xenconsoled_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the xencon‐
7 soled processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the xenconsoled processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12 The xenconsoled processes execute with the xenconsoled_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 xenconsoled_t
20
24 The xenconsoled_t SELinux type can be entered via the xencon‐
25 soled_exec_t file type.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the xenconsoled_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29 /usr/sbin/xenconsoled
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 xenconsoled policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their xen‐
40 consoled processes in as secure a method as possible.
41 The following process types are defined for xenconsoled:
43 xenconsoled_t
45 Note: semanage permissive -a xenconsoled_t can be used to make the
47 process type xenconsoled_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. xencon‐
54 soled policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
55 you to manipulate the policy and run xenconsoled with the tightest ac‐
56 cess 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

68 The SELinux process type xenconsoled_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.

129 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
130 type.
131 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
133 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
135 SELinux xenconsoled policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
136 their xenconsoled processes in as secure a method as possible.
137 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
139 SELinux defines the file context types for the xenconsoled, if you
141 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
142 execute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use
143 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
144 semanage fcontext -a -t xenconsoled_var_run_t '/srv/myxenconsoled_con‐
146 tent(/.*)?'
147 restorecon -R -v /srv/myxenconsoled_content
148 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
150 match multiple files.
151 The following file types are defined for xenconsoled:
153 xenconsoled_exec_t
157 - Set files with the xenconsoled_exec_t type, if you want to transition
159 an executable to the xenconsoled_t domain.
160 xenconsoled_var_run_t
164 - Set files with the xenconsoled_var_run_t type, if you want to store
166 the xenconsoled files under the /run or /var/run directory.
167 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
171 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
172 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
173 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
174
177 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
178 mappings.
179 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
181 process type is permissive.
182 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
184 icy modules.
185 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
187 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
190 icy settings.
