6 afs_fsserver_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the
7 afs_fsserver processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the afs_fsserver processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The afs_fsserver processes execute with the afs_fsserver_t SELinux
14 type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing
15 the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep afs_fsserver_t
20
21
22
24 The afs_fsserver_t SELinux type can be entered via the
25 afs_fsserver_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the afs_fsserver_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29
30 /usr/afs/bin/salvager, /usr/afs/bin/volserver, /usr/afs/bin/dasalvager,
31 /usr/afs/bin/fileserver, /usr/afs/bin/davolserver, /usr/afs/bin/dafile‐
32 server, /usr/afs/bin/salvageserver, /usr/libexec/openafs/salvager,
33 /usr/libexec/openafs/volserver, /usr/libexec/openafs/fileserver
34
36 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
37 system
38
39 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
40
41 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
42 afs_fsserver policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
43 afs_fsserver processes in as secure a method as possible.
44
45 The following process types are defined for afs_fsserver:
46
47 afs_fsserver_t
48
49 Note: semanage permissive -a afs_fsserver_t can be used to make the
50 process type afs_fsserver_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
51 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
52 still generated.
53
54
56 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
57 afs_fsserver policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
58 allow you to manipulate the policy and run afs_fsserver with the tight‐
59 est access possible.
60
61
62
63 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
64 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
65
66 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
67
68
69
71 The SELinux process type afs_fsserver_t can manage files labeled with
72 the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for
73 these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC per‐
74 missions.
75
76 afs_files_t
77
78 /usr/afs(/.*)?
79 /vicepa
80 /vicepb
81 /vicepc
82
83 afs_logfile_t
84
85 /usr/afs/logs(/.*)?
86
87
89 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
90 type.
91
92 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
93
94 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
95 SELinux afs_fsserver policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
96 their afs_fsserver processes in as secure a method as possible.
97
98 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
99
100 SELinux defines the file context types for the afs_fsserver, if you
101 wanted to store files with these types in a different paths, you need
102 to execute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then
103 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
104
105 semanage fcontext -a -t afs_fsserver_exec_t '/srv/afs_fsserver/con‐
106 tent(/.*)?'
107 restorecon -R -v /srv/myafs_fsserver_content
108
109 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
110 match multiple files.
111
112 The following file types are defined for afs_fsserver:
113
114
115
116 afs_fsserver_exec_t
117
118 - Set files with the afs_fsserver_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
119 tion an executable to the afs_fsserver_t domain.
120
121
122 Paths:
123 /usr/afs/bin/salvager, /usr/afs/bin/volserver, /usr/afs/bin/dasal‐
124 vager, /usr/afs/bin/fileserver, /usr/afs/bin/davolserver,
125 /usr/afs/bin/dafileserver, /usr/afs/bin/salvageserver,
126 /usr/libexec/openafs/salvager, /usr/libexec/openafs/volserver,
127 /usr/libexec/openafs/fileserver
128
129
130 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
131 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
132 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
133 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
134
135
137 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
138 mappings.
139
140 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
141 process type is permissive.
142
143 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
144 icy modules.
145
146 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
147
148
149 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
150 icy settings.
