6 smoltclient_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the smolt‐
7 client processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the smoltclient processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The smoltclient processes execute with the smoltclient_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 smoltclient_t
20
21
22
24 The smoltclient_t SELinux type can be entered via the smolt‐
25 client_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the smoltclient_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29
30 /usr/share/smolt/client/sendProfile.py
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 smoltclient policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 smoltclient processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for smoltclient:
43
44 smoltclient_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a smoltclient_t can be used to make the
47 process type smoltclient_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. smolt‐
54 client policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
55 you to manipulate the policy and run smoltclient with the tightest ac‐
56 cess possible.
57
58
59
60 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
61 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
62
63 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
64
65
66
67 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
68 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
69
70 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
71
72
73
75 The SELinux process type smoltclient_t can manage files labeled with
76 the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for
77 these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC per‐
78 missions.
79
80 krb5_host_rcache_t
81
82 /var/tmp/krb5_0.rcache2
83 /var/cache/krb5rcache(/.*)?
84 /var/tmp/nfs_0
85 /var/tmp/DNS_25
86 /var/tmp/host_0
87 /var/tmp/imap_0
88 /var/tmp/HTTP_23
89 /var/tmp/HTTP_48
90 /var/tmp/ldap_55
91 /var/tmp/ldap_487
92 /var/tmp/ldapmap1_0
93
94 smoltclient_tmp_t
95
96
97
99 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
100 type.
101
102 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
103
104 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
105 SELinux smoltclient policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
106 their smoltclient processes in as secure a method as possible.
107
108 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
109
110 SELinux defines the file context types for the smoltclient, if you
111 wanted to store files with these types in a different paths, you need
112 to execute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then
113 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
114
115 semanage fcontext -a -t smoltclient_exec_t '/srv/smoltclient/con‐
116 tent(/.*)?'
117 restorecon -R -v /srv/mysmoltclient_content
118
119 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
120 match multiple files.
121
122 The following file types are defined for smoltclient:
123
124
125
126 smoltclient_exec_t
127
128 - Set files with the smoltclient_exec_t type, if you want to transition
129 an executable to the smoltclient_t domain.
130
131
132
133 smoltclient_tmp_t
134
135 - Set files with the smoltclient_tmp_t type, if you want to store
136 smoltclient temporary files in the /tmp directories.
137
138
139
140 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
141 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
142 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
143 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
144
145
147 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
148 mappings.
149
150 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
151 process type is permissive.
152
153 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
154 icy modules.
155
156 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
157
158
159 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
160 icy settings.
