NAME

6       usbmodules_selinux  - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the usbmodules
7       processes
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the usbmodules processes  via  flexible
11       mandatory access control.
12
13       The  usbmodules  processes  execute with the usbmodules_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 usbmodules_t

22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The  usbmodules_t SELinux type can be entered via the usbmodules_exec_t
25       file type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the usbmodules_t domain are  the  fol‐
28       lowing:
29
30       /sbin/usbmodules, /usr/sbin/usbmodules
31

PROCESS TYPES

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       usbmodules  policy  is very flexible allowing users to setup their usb‐
40       modules processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42       The following process types are defined for usbmodules:
43
44       usbmodules_t
45
46       Note: semanage permissive -a usbmodules_t  can  be  used  to  make  the
47       process  type  usbmodules_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
48       permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux  denials)  messages  are
49       still generated.

BOOLEANS

53       SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.  usbmod‐
54       ules policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans  that  allow
55       you  to  manipulate the policy and run usbmodules 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

MANAGED FILES

68       The SELinux process type usbmodules_t can manage files labeled with the
69       following file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for these
70       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
71
72       usbfs_t

75

FILE CONTEXTS

77       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
78       type.
79
80       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
81
82       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  files.
83       SELinux  usbmodules  policy  is  very  flexible allowing users to setup
84       their usbmodules processes in as secure a method as possible.
85
86       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
87
88       SELinux defines the file context  types  for  the  usbmodules,  if  you
89       wanted  to  store files with these types in a different paths, you need
90       to execute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and  then
91       use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
92
93       semanage   fcontext   -a   -t  usbmodules_exec_t  '/srv/usbmodules/con‐
94       tent(/.*)?'
95       restorecon -R -v /srv/myusbmodules_content
96
97       Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions  to  specify  labels  that
98       match multiple files.
99
100       The following file types are defined for usbmodules:
101
102
103
104       usbmodules_exec_t
105
106       -  Set files with the usbmodules_exec_t type, if you want to transition
107       an executable to the usbmodules_t domain.
108
109
110       Paths:
111            /sbin/usbmodules, /usr/sbin/usbmodules
112
113
114       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
115       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
116       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
117       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.

119

COMMANDS

121       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
122       mappings.
123
124       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
125       process type is permissive.
126
127       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
128       icy modules.
129
130       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
131
132
133       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
134       icy settings.
