6 chronyd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the chronyd pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the chronyd processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The chronyd processes execute with the chronyd_t SELinux type. You can
14 check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command
15 with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep chronyd_t
20
21
22
24 The chronyd_t SELinux type can be entered via the chronyd_exec_t file
25 type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the chronyd_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29
30 /usr/sbin/chronyd, /usr/libexec/chrony-helper
31
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 chronyd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their chronyd
40 processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for chronyd:
43
44 chronyd_t, chronyd_restricted_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a chronyd_t can be used to make the process
47 type chronyd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
48 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
49 ated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. chronyd
54 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
55 manipulate the policy and run chronyd with the tightest access possi‐
56 ble.
57
58
59
60 If you want to dontaudit all daemons scheduling requests (setsched,
61 sys_nice), you must turn on the daemons_dontaudit_scheduling boolean.
62 Enabled by default.
63
64 setsebool -P daemons_dontaudit_scheduling 1
65
66
67
68 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
69 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
70
71 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
72
73
74
75 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
76 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
77
78 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
79
80
81
83 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
84
85 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
86 command:
87
88 semanage port -l
89
90
91 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
92 SELinux chronyd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
93 chronyd processes in as secure a method as possible.
94
95 The following port types are defined for chronyd:
96
97
98 chronyd_port_t
99
100
101
102 Default Defined Ports:
103 udp 323
104
106 The SELinux process type chronyd_t can manage files labeled with the
107 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
108 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

192 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
193 type.
194
195 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
196
197 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
198 SELinux chronyd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
199 chronyd processes in as secure a method as possible.
200
201 EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
202
203
204 chronyd policy stores data with multiple different file context types
205 under the /var/run/chrony directory. If you would like to store the
206 data in a different directory you can use the semanage command to cre‐
207 ate an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this data under the
208 /srv directory you would execute the following command:
209
210 semanage fcontext -a -e /var/run/chrony /srv/chrony
211 restorecon -R -v /srv/chrony
212
213 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
214
215 SELinux defines the file context types for the chronyd, if you wanted
216 to store files with these types in a different paths, you need to exe‐
217 cute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use
218 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
219
220 semanage fcontext -a -t chronyd_exec_t '/srv/chronyd/content(/.*)?'
221 restorecon -R -v /srv/mychronyd_content
222
223 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
224 match multiple files.
225
226 The following file types are defined for chronyd:
227
228
229
230 chronyd_exec_t
231
232 - Set files with the chronyd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
233 executable to the chronyd_t domain.
234
235
236 Paths:
237 /usr/sbin/chronyd, /usr/libexec/chrony-helper
238
239
240 chronyd_initrc_exec_t
241
242 - Set files with the chronyd_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
243 tion an executable to the chronyd_initrc_t domain.
244
245
246
247 chronyd_keys_t
248
249 - Set files with the chronyd_keys_t type, if you want to treat the
250 files as chronyd keys data.
251
252
253
254 chronyd_tmp_t
255
256 - Set files with the chronyd_tmp_t type, if you want to store chronyd
257 temporary files in the /tmp directories.
258
259
260
261 chronyd_tmpfs_t
262
263 - Set files with the chronyd_tmpfs_t type, if you want to store chronyd
264 files on a tmpfs file system.
265
266
267
268 chronyd_unit_file_t
269
270 - Set files with the chronyd_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat the
271 files as chronyd unit content.
272
273
274
275 chronyd_var_lib_t
276
277 - Set files with the chronyd_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the
278 chronyd files under the /var/lib directory.
279
280
281
282 chronyd_var_log_t
283
284 - Set files with the chronyd_var_log_t type, if you want to treat the
285 data as chronyd var log data, usually stored under the /var/log direc‐
286 tory.
287
288
289
290 chronyd_var_run_t
291
292 - Set files with the chronyd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
293 chronyd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
294
295
296 Paths:
297 /var/run/chrony(/.*)?, /var/run/chronyd(/.*)?, /var/run/chrony-
298 dhcp(/.*)?, /var/run/chrony-helper(/.*)?, /var/run/chronyd.pid,
299 /var/run/chronyd.sock
300
301
302 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
303 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
304 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
305 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
306
307
309 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
310 mappings.
311
312 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
313 process type is permissive.
314
315 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
316 icy modules.
317
318 semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
319
320 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
321
322
323 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
324 icy settings.
