6 eventlogd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the eventlogd
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the eventlogd processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12 The eventlogd processes execute with the eventlogd_t SELinux type. You
14 can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps com‐
15 mand with the -Z qualifier.
16 For example:
18 ps -eZ | grep eventlogd_t
20
24 The eventlogd_t SELinux type can be entered via the eventlogd_exec_t
25 file type.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the eventlogd_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29 /usr/sbin/eventlogd, /opt/likewise/sbin/eventlogd
31
33 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
34 system
35 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
37 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
39 eventlogd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their event‐
40 logd processes in as secure a method as possible.
41 The following process types are defined for eventlogd:
43 eventlogd_t
45 Note: semanage permissive -a eventlogd_t can be used to make the
47 process type eventlogd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
48 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
49 still generated.
50
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. event‐
54 logd policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
55 you to manipulate the policy and run eventlogd with the tightest access
56 possible.
57 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 setsebool -P daemons_dontaudit_scheduling 1
65 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 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
72
76 The SELinux process type eventlogd_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 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
131 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
133 SELinux eventlogd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
134 eventlogd processes in as secure a method as possible.
135 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
137 SELinux defines the file context types for the eventlogd, if you wanted
139 to store files with these types in a different paths, you need to exe‐
140 cute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use
141 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
142 semanage fcontext -a -t eventlogd_exec_t '/srv/eventlogd/content(/.*)?'
144 restorecon -R -v /srv/myeventlogd_content
145 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
147 match multiple files.
148 The following file types are defined for eventlogd:
150 eventlogd_exec_t
154 - Set files with the eventlogd_exec_t type, if you want to transition
156 an executable to the eventlogd_t domain.
157 Paths:
160 /usr/sbin/eventlogd, /opt/likewise/sbin/eventlogd
161 eventlogd_var_lib_t
164 - Set files with the eventlogd_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the
166 eventlogd files under the /var/lib directory.
167 Paths:
170 /var/lib/likewise/db/lwi_events.db, /var/lib/likewise-
171 open/db/lwi_events.db
172 eventlogd_var_run_t
175 - Set files with the eventlogd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
177 eventlogd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
178 eventlogd_var_socket_t
182 - Set files with the eventlogd_var_socket_t type, if you want to treat
184 the files as eventlogd var socket data.
185 Paths:
188 /var/lib/likewise/.eventlog, /var/lib/likewise/rpc/socket,
189 /var/lib/likewise-open/.eventlog, /var/lib/likewise-
190 open/rpc/socket
191 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
194 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
195 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
196 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
197
200 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
201 mappings.
202 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
204 process type is permissive.
205 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
207 icy modules.
208 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
210 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
213 icy settings.
