NAME

6       NetworkManager_priv_helper_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for
7       the NetworkManager_priv_helper processes
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux  secures  the  NetworkManager_priv_helper  pro‐
11       cesses via flexible mandatory access control.
12
13       The  NetworkManager_priv_helper  processes execute with the NetworkMan‐
14       ager_priv_helper_t SELinux type. You can check if you have  these  pro‐
15       cesses running by executing the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17       For example:
18
19       ps -eZ | grep NetworkManager_priv_helper_t
20

22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The  NetworkManager_priv_helper_t  SELinux  type can be entered via the
25       NetworkManager_priv_helper_exec_t file type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the  NetworkManager_priv_helper_t  do‐
28       main are the following:
29
30       /usr/libexec/nm-priv-helper
31

PROCESS TYPES

33       SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
34       system
35
36       You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
37
38       Policy governs the access confined processes have  to  files.   SELinux
39       NetworkManager_priv_helper  policy  is  very flexible allowing users to
40       setup their NetworkManager_priv_helper processes in as secure a  method
41       as possible.
42
43       The following process types are defined for NetworkManager_priv_helper:
44
45       NetworkManager_priv_helper_t
46
47       Note:  semanage  permissive -a NetworkManager_priv_helper_t can be used
48       to  make  the  process  type  NetworkManager_priv_helper_t  permissive.
49       SELinux  does  not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC
50       (SELinux denials) messages are still generated.
51
52

BOOLEANS

54       SELinux policy is customizable based on least  access  required.   Net‐
55       workManager_priv_helper  policy  is  extremely flexible and has several
56       booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy  and  run  NetworkMan‐
57       ager_priv_helper with the tightest access possible.
58
59
60
61       If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
62       on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
63
64       setsebool -P fips_mode 1

FILE CONTEXTS

69       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
70       type.
71
72       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
73
74       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these files.
75       SELinux NetworkManager_priv_helper policy  is  very  flexible  allowing
76       users  to setup their NetworkManager_priv_helper processes in as secure
77       a method as possible.
78
79       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
80
81       SELinux  defines  the  file   context   types   for   the   NetworkMan‐
82       ager_priv_helper,  if  you  wanted to store files with these types in a
83       different paths, you need to execute the semanage  command  to  specify
84       alternate labeling and then use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
85
86       semanage  fcontext  -a  -t NetworkManager_priv_helper_exec_t '/srv/Net‐
87       workManager_priv_helper/content(/.*)?'
88       restorecon -R -v /srv/myNetworkManager_priv_helper_content
89
90       Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions  to  specify  labels  that
91       match multiple files.
92
93       The following file types are defined for NetworkManager_priv_helper:
94
95
96
97       NetworkManager_priv_helper_exec_t
98
99       -  Set  files  with  the NetworkManager_priv_helper_exec_t type, if you
100       want to transition an executable  to  the  NetworkManager_priv_helper_t
101       domain.
102
103
104
105       Note:  File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
106       If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use  the
107       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
108       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.

110

COMMANDS

112       semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default  file  context
113       mappings.
114
115       semanage  permissive  can  also  be used to manipulate whether or not a
116       process type is permissive.
117
118       semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove  pol‐
119       icy modules.
120
121       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
122
123
124       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
125       icy settings.
