6 publicfile_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the publicfile
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the publicfile processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The publicfile processes execute with the publicfile_t SELinux type.
14 You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps
15 command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep publicfile_t
20
21
22
24 The publicfile_t SELinux type can be entered via the publicfile_exec_t
25 file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the publicfile_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29
30 /usr/bin/ftpd, /usr/bin/httpd
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 publicfile policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their pub‐
40 licfile processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for publicfile:
43
44 publicfile_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a publicfile_t can be used to make the
47 process type publicfile_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
48 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
49 still generated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. public‐
54 file policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
55 you to manipulate the policy and run publicfile with the tightest ac‐
56 cess possible.
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
76 The SELinux process type publicfile_t can manage files labeled with the
77 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
78 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

118 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
119 type.
120
121 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
122
123 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
124 SELinux publicfile policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
125 their publicfile processes in as secure a method as possible.
126
127 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
128
129 SELinux defines the file context types for the publicfile, if you
130 wanted to store files with these types in a different paths, you need
131 to execute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then
132 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
133
134 semanage fcontext -a -t publicfile_exec_t '/srv/publicfile/con‐
135 tent(/.*)?'
136 restorecon -R -v /srv/mypublicfile_content
137
138 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
139 match multiple files.
140
141 The following file types are defined for publicfile:
142
143
144
145 publicfile_content_t
146
147 - Set files with the publicfile_content_t type, if you want to treat
148 the files as publicfile content.
149
150
151
152 publicfile_exec_t
153
154 - Set files with the publicfile_exec_t type, if you want to transition
155 an executable to the publicfile_t domain.
156
157
158 Paths:
159 /usr/bin/ftpd, /usr/bin/httpd
160
161
162 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
163 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
164 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
165 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
166
167
169 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
170 mappings.
171
172 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
173 process type is permissive.
174
175 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
176 icy modules.
177
178 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
179
180
181 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
182 icy settings.
