6 tftpd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the tftpd processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the tftpd processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11
12 The tftpd processes execute with the tftpd_t SELinux type. You can
13 check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command
14 with the -Z qualifier.
15
16 For example:
17
18 ps -eZ | grep tftpd_t
19
20
21
23 The tftpd_t SELinux type can be entered via the tftpd_exec_t file type.
24
25 The default entrypoint paths for the tftpd_t domain are the following:
26
27 /usr/sbin/atftpd, /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
28
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 tftpd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their tftpd pro‐
37 cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39 The following process types are defined for tftpd:
40
41 tftpd_t
42
43 Note: semanage permissive -a tftpd_t can be used to make the process
44 type tftpd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
45 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
46 ated.
47
48
50 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. tftpd
51 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52 manipulate the policy and run tftpd with the tightest access possible.
53
54
55
56 If you want to allow tftp to read and write files in the user home di‐
57 rectories, you must turn on the tftp_home_dir boolean. Disabled by de‐
58 fault.
59
60 setsebool -P tftp_home_dir 1
61
62
63
64 If you want to dontaudit all daemons scheduling requests (setsched,
65 sys_nice), you must turn on the daemons_dontaudit_scheduling boolean.
66 Enabled by default.
67
68 setsebool -P daemons_dontaudit_scheduling 1
69
70
71
72 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
73 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
74
75 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
76
77
78
79 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
80 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
81
82 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
83
84
85
86 If you want to support NFS home directories, you must turn on the
87 use_nfs_home_dirs boolean. Disabled by default.
88
89 setsebool -P use_nfs_home_dirs 1
90
91
92
93 If you want to support SAMBA home directories, you must turn on the
94 use_samba_home_dirs boolean. Disabled by default.
95
96 setsebool -P use_samba_home_dirs 1
97

101 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
102
103 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
104 command:
105
106 semanage port -l
107
108
109 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
110 SELinux tftpd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
111 tftpd processes in as secure a method as possible.
112
113 The following port types are defined for tftpd:
114
115
116 tftp_port_t
117
118
119
120 Default Defined Ports:
121 udp 69
122
124 The SELinux process type tftpd_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
125 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
126 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

202 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
203 type.
204
205 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
206
207 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
208 SELinux tftpd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
209 tftpd processes in as secure a method as possible.
210
211 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
212
213 SELinux defines the file context types for the tftpd, if you wanted to
214 store files with these types in a different paths, you need to execute
215 the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use re‐
216 storecon to put the labels on disk.
217
218 semanage fcontext -a -t tftpd_exec_t '/srv/tftpd/content(/.*)?'
219 restorecon -R -v /srv/mytftpd_content
220
221 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
222 match multiple files.
223
224 The following file types are defined for tftpd:
225
226
227
228 tftpd_etc_t
229
230 - Set files with the tftpd_etc_t type, if you want to store tftpd files
231 in the /etc directories.
232
233
234
235 tftpd_exec_t
236
237 - Set files with the tftpd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
238 executable to the tftpd_t domain.
239
240
241 Paths:
242 /usr/sbin/atftpd, /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
243
244
245 tftpd_var_run_t
246
247 - Set files with the tftpd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
248 tftpd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
249
250
251
252 tftpdir_rw_t
253
254 - Set files with the tftpdir_rw_t type, if you want to treat the files
255 as tftpdir read/write content.
256
257
258
259 tftpdir_t
260
261 - Set files with the tftpdir_t type, if you want to treat the files as
262 tftpdir data.
263
264
265 Paths:
266 /tftpboot/.*, /tftpboot
267
268
269 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
270 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
271 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
272 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
273
274
276 If you want to share files with multiple domains (Apache, FTP, rsync,
277 Samba), you can set a file context of public_content_t and public_con‐
278 tent_rw_t. These context allow any of the above domains to read the
279 content. If you want a particular domain to write to the public_con‐
280 tent_rw_t domain, you must set the appropriate boolean.
281
282 Allow tftpd servers to read the /var/tftpd directory by adding the pub‐
283 lic_content_t file type to the directory and by restoring the file
284 type.
285
286 semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_t "/var/tftpd(/.*)?"
287 restorecon -F -R -v /var/tftpd
288
289 Allow tftpd servers to read and write /var/tftpd/incoming by adding the
290 public_content_rw_t type to the directory and by restoring the file
291 type. You also need to turn on the tftpd_anon_write boolean.
292
293 semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_rw_t "/var/tftpd/incoming(/.*)?"
294 restorecon -F -R -v /var/tftpd/incoming
295 setsebool -P tftpd_anon_write 1
296
297
298 If you want to allow tftp to modify public files used for public file
299 transfer services., you must turn on the tftp_anon_write boolean.
300
301 setsebool -P tftp_anon_write 1
302
303
305 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
306 mappings.
307
308 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
309 process type is permissive.
310
311 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
312 icy modules.
313
314 semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
315
316 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
317
318
319 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
320 icy settings.
