6 mythtv_script_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the
7 mythtv_script processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the mythtv_script processes via flexi‐
11 ble mandatory access control.
12
13 The mythtv_script processes execute with the mythtv_script_t SELinux
14 type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing
15 the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep mythtv_script_t
20
21
22
24 The mythtv_script_t SELinux type can be entered via the
25 mythtv_script_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the mythtv_script_t domain are the
28 following:
29
30 /usr/share/mythtv/mythweather/scripts(/.*)?, /usr/share/mythweb/myth‐
31 web.pl
32
34 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
35 system
36
37 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
38
39 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
40 mythtv_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
41 mythtv_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
42
43 The following process types are defined for mythtv_script:
44
45 mythtv_script_t
46
47 Note: semanage permissive -a mythtv_script_t can be used to make the
48 process type mythtv_script_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access
49 to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
50 still generated.
51
52
54 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
55 mythtv_script policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans
56 that allow you to manipulate the policy and run mythtv_script with the
57 tightest access possible.
58
59
60
61 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
62 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
63
64 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
65
66
67
68 If you want to allow httpd cgi support, you must turn on the httpd_en‐
69 able_cgi boolean. Enabled by default.
70
71 setsebool -P httpd_enable_cgi 1
72
73
74
75 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
76 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
77
78 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
79

81
83 The SELinux process type mythtv_script_t can manage files labeled with
84 the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for
85 these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC per‐
86 missions.
87
88 mythtv_rw_content_t
89
90
91 mythtv_var_lib_t
92
93 /var/lib/mythtv(/.*)?
94
95 mythtv_var_log_t
96
97 /var/log/mythtv(/.*)?
98
99
101 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
102 type.
103
104 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
105
106 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
107 SELinux mythtv_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
108 their mythtv_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
109
110 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
111
112 SELinux defines the file context types for the mythtv_script, if you
113 wanted to store files with these types in a different paths, you need
114 to execute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then
115 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
116
117 semanage fcontext -a -t mythtv_script_exec_t '/srv/mythtv_script/con‐
118 tent(/.*)?'
119 restorecon -R -v /srv/mymythtv_script_content
120
121 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
122 match multiple files.
123
124 The following file types are defined for mythtv_script:
125
126
127
128 mythtv_script_exec_t
129
130 - Set files with the mythtv_script_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
131 tion an executable to the mythtv_script_t domain.
132
133
134 Paths:
135 /usr/share/mythtv/mythweather/scripts(/.*)?, /usr/share/myth‐
136 web/mythweb.pl
137
138
139 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
140 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
141 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
142 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
143
144
146 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
147 mappings.
148
149 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
150 process type is permissive.
151
152 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
153 icy modules.
154
155 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
156
157
158 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
159 icy settings.
