NAME

6       obex_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the obex processes
7

DESCRIPTION

9       Security-Enhanced  Linux secures the obex processes via flexible manda‐
10       tory access control.
11
12       The obex processes execute with the obex_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 obex_t
19

21

ENTRYPOINTS

23       The obex_t SELinux type can be entered via the obex_exec_t file type.
24
25       The default entrypoint paths for the obex_t domain are the following:
26
27       /usr/bin/obex-data-server, /usr/libexec/bluetooth/obexd
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       obex policy is very flexible allowing users to setup  their  obex  pro‐
37       cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39       The following process types are defined for obex:
40
41       obex_t
42
43       Note:  semanage  permissive  -a  obex_t can be used to make the process
44       type obex_t permissive. SELinux does  not  deny  access  to  permissive
45       process  types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
46       ated.

BOOLEANS

50       SELinux policy is customizable based on least  access  required.   obex
51       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52       manipulate the policy and run obex with the tightest access possible.
53
54
55
56       If you want to deny all system processes and Linux users to  use  blue‐
57       tooth wireless technology, you must turn on the deny_bluetooth boolean.
58       Disabled by default.
59
60       setsebool -P deny_bluetooth 1
61
62
63
64       If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
65       on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
66
67       setsebool -P fips_mode 1

FILE CONTEXTS

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

113

COMMANDS

115       semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default  file  context
116       mappings.
117
118       semanage  permissive  can  also  be used to manipulate whether or not a
119       process type is permissive.
120
121       semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove  pol‐
122       icy modules.
123
124       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
125
126
127       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
128       icy settings.
