6 xenconsoled_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the xencon‐
7 soled processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the xenconsoled processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The xenconsoled processes execute with the xenconsoled_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 xenconsoled_t
20
21
22
24 The xenconsoled_t SELinux type can be entered via the xencon‐
25 soled_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the xenconsoled_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29
30 /usr/sbin/xenconsoled
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 xenconsoled policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their xen‐
40 consoled processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for xenconsoled:
43
44 xenconsoled_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a xenconsoled_t can be used to make the
47 process type xenconsoled_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. xencon‐
54 soled policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
55 you to manipulate the policy and run xenconsoled 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 xenconsoled_t can manage files labeled with
77 the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for
78 these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC per‐
79 missions.

137 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
138 type.
139
140 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
141
142 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
143 SELinux xenconsoled policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
144 their xenconsoled processes in as secure a method as possible.
145
146 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
147
148 SELinux defines the file context types for the xenconsoled, if you
149 wanted to store files with these types in a different paths, you need
150 to execute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then
151 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
152
153 semanage fcontext -a -t xenconsoled_exec_t '/srv/xenconsoled/con‐
154 tent(/.*)?'
155 restorecon -R -v /srv/myxenconsoled_content
156
157 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
158 match multiple files.
159
160 The following file types are defined for xenconsoled:
161
162
163
164 xenconsoled_exec_t
165
166 - Set files with the xenconsoled_exec_t type, if you want to transition
167 an executable to the xenconsoled_t domain.
168
169
170
171 xenconsoled_var_run_t
172
173 - Set files with the xenconsoled_var_run_t type, if you want to store
174 the xenconsoled files under the /run or /var/run directory.
175
176
177
178 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
179 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
180 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
181 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
182
183
185 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
186 mappings.
187
188 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
189 process type is permissive.
190
191 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
192 icy modules.
193
194 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
195
196
197 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
198 icy settings.
