6 vdagent_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the vdagent pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the vdagent processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The vdagent processes execute with the vdagent_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 vdagent_t
20
21
22
24 The vdagent_t SELinux type can be entered via the vdagent_exec_t file
25 type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the vdagent_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29
30 /usr/sbin/spice-vdagentd
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 vdagent policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their vdagent
40 processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for vdagent:
43
44 vdagent_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a vdagent_t can be used to make the process
47 type vdagent_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. vdagent
54 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
55 manipulate the policy and run vdagent with the tightest access possi‐
56 ble.
57

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 vdagent_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.

127 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
128 type.
129
130 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
131
132 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
133 SELinux vdagent policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
134 vdagent processes in as secure a method as possible.
135
136 EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
137
138
139 vdagent policy stores data with multiple different file context types
140 under the /var/log/spice-vdagentd directory. If you would like to
141 store the data in a different directory you can use the semanage com‐
142 mand to create an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this
143 data under the /srv directory you would execute the following command:
144
145 semanage fcontext -a -e /var/log/spice-vdagentd /srv/spice-vdagentd
146 restorecon -R -v /srv/spice-vdagentd
147
148 vdagent policy stores data with multiple different file context types
149 under the /var/run/spice-vdagentd directory. If you would like to
150 store the data in a different directory you can use the semanage com‐
151 mand to create an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this
152 data under the /srv directory you would execute the following command:
153
154 semanage fcontext -a -e /var/run/spice-vdagentd /srv/spice-vdagentd
155 restorecon -R -v /srv/spice-vdagentd
156
157 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
158
159 SELinux defines the file context types for the vdagent, if you wanted
160 to store files with these types in a different paths, you need to exe‐
161 cute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use
162 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
163
164 semanage fcontext -a -t vdagent_exec_t '/srv/vdagent/content(/.*)?'
165 restorecon -R -v /srv/myvdagent_content
166
167 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
168 match multiple files.
169
170 The following file types are defined for vdagent:
171
172
173
174 vdagent_exec_t
175
176 - Set files with the vdagent_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
177 executable to the vdagent_t domain.
178
179
180
181 vdagent_log_t
182
183 - Set files with the vdagent_log_t type, if you want to treat the data
184 as vdagent log data, usually stored under the /var/log directory.
185
186
187 Paths:
188 /var/log/spice-vdagentd(/.*)?, /var/log/spice-vdagentd.log.*
189
190
191 vdagent_var_run_t
192
193 - Set files with the vdagent_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
194 vdagent files under the /run or /var/run directory.
195
196
197 Paths:
198 /var/run/spice-vdagentd(/.*)?, /var/run/spice-vdagentd.pid
199
200
201 vdagentd_initrc_exec_t
202
203 - Set files with the vdagentd_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
204 sition an executable to the vdagentd_initrc_t domain.
205
206
207
208 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
209 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
210 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
211 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
212
213
215 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
216 mappings.
217
218 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
219 process type is permissive.
220
221 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
222 icy modules.
223
224 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
225
226
227 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
228 icy settings.
