NAME

6       mrtg_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the mrtg processes
7

DESCRIPTION

9       Security-Enhanced  Linux secures the mrtg processes via flexible manda‐
10       tory access control.
11
12       The mrtg processes execute with the mrtg_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 mrtg_t
19
20
21

ENTRYPOINTS

23       The mrtg_t SELinux type can be entered via the mrtg_exec_t file type.
24
25       The default entrypoint paths for the mrtg_t domain are the following:
26
27       /usr/bin/mrtg
28

PROCESS TYPES

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       mrtg policy is very flexible allowing users to setup  their  mrtg  pro‐
37       cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39       The following process types are defined for mrtg:
40
41       mrtg_t
42
43       Note:  semanage  permissive  -a  mrtg_t can be used to make the process
44       type mrtg_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

BOOLEANS

50       SELinux policy is customizable based on least  access  required.   mrtg
51       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52       manipulate the policy and run mrtg 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
63       If  you  want  to  allow  system  to run with NIS, you must turn on the
64       nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
65
66       setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
67
68

MANAGED FILES

71       The SELinux process type mrtg_t can manage files labeled with the  fol‐
72       lowing  file  types.   The paths listed are the default paths for these
73       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

FILE CONTEXTS

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 mrtg policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their mrtg
138       processes in as secure a method as possible.
139
140       EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
141
142
143       mrtg  policy stores data with multiple different file context types un‐
144       der the /var/lock/mrtg directory.  If you would like to store the  data
145       in  a different directory you can use the semanage command to create an
146       equivalence mapping.  If you wanted to store this data under  the  /srv
147       directory you would execute the following command:
148
149       semanage fcontext -a -e /var/lock/mrtg /srv/mrtg
150       restorecon -R -v /srv/mrtg
151
152       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
153
154       SELinux  defines  the file context types for the mrtg, if you wanted to
155       store files with these types in a diffent paths, you  need  to  execute
156       the  semanage  command  to  specify alternate labeling and then use re‐
157       storecon to put the labels on disk.
158
159       semanage fcontext -a -t mrtg_var_run_t '/srv/mymrtg_content(/.*)?'
160       restorecon -R -v /srv/mymrtg_content
161
162       Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions  to  specify  labels  that
163       match multiple files.
164
165       The following file types are defined for mrtg:
166
167
168
169       mrtg_etc_t
170
171       -  Set  files with the mrtg_etc_t type, if you want to store mrtg files
172       in the /etc directories.
173
174
175
176       mrtg_exec_t
177
178       - Set files with the mrtg_exec_t type, if you want to transition an ex‐
179       ecutable to the mrtg_t domain.
180
181
182
183       mrtg_initrc_exec_t
184
185       - Set files with the mrtg_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transition
186       an executable to the mrtg_initrc_t domain.
187
188
189
190       mrtg_lock_t
191
192       - Set files with the mrtg_lock_t type, if you want to treat  the  files
193       as mrtg lock data, stored under the /var/lock directory
194
195
196       Paths:
197            /var/lock/mrtg(/.*)?, /var/lock/mrtg-rrd(/.*)?, /etc/mrtg/mrtg.ok,
198            /var/lock/subsys/mrtg
199
200
201       mrtg_log_t
202
203       - Set files with the mrtg_log_t type, if you want to treat the data  as
204       mrtg log data, usually stored under the /var/log directory.
205
206
207
208       mrtg_tmp_t
209
210       -  Set files with the mrtg_tmp_t type, if you want to store mrtg tempo‐
211       rary files in the /tmp directories.
212
213
214
215       mrtg_var_lib_t
216
217       - Set files with the mrtg_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the mrtg
218       files under the /var/lib directory.
219
220
221
222       mrtg_var_run_t
223
224       - Set files with the mrtg_var_run_t type, if you want to store the mrtg
225       files under the /run or /var/run directory.
226
227
228
229       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
230       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
231       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
232       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
233
234

COMMANDS

236       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
237       mappings.
238
239       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
240       process type is permissive.
241
242       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
243       icy modules.
244
245       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
246
247
248       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
249       icy settings.
